Abstract:
This research developed a novel medium-temperature (up to 300 °C) latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) system, utilizing a compact shell-and-tube thermal exchange system containing spiral finned tubes, 220 kg of phase change material (PCM) was employed, enabling 44.52 MJ of heat storage, a visible window allowed to observe the phase change process and investigate the temperature variations in conjunction with thermocouples. The study analyzed the thermal traits and explored the impact of charging and discharging temperatures on the system's thermal performance.
