2. On the Design Considerations for Thermal Energy Storage with Phase Change Materials: Material Characterization and Modelling
Abstract : Integrating thermal energy storage (TES) technologies to a process enables storing and releasing thermal energy on demand. Depending on the implementation, this may lead to economic and ecological improvements, e.g. by shifting the peak demand to off-peak hours or by increasing the share of utilized renewable energy.
