2019, EnergyCitation Excerpt :Thus, containers are proposed in packing PCM; these containers include those with a tubular [5–7], spherical [8–10], cylindrical [10,11] or rectangular shape [11]. Fath [5,6] proposed a system that consists of straight and staggered sets of tubes that are filled with TSM, such as sand, paraffin, and glauber salt. The system shows a 63.48% daily average efficiency for an air flow rate of 0.03 kg/s at an ambient temperature of approximately 20 °C–30 °C.
Evaluation of solar collector designs with integrated latent heat thermal energy storage: A review
2018, Solar EnergyCitation Excerpt :Many PCMs have been used in solar air heaters. Although melting temperatures between 316 and 324 K ranges give the best performance (Fath, 1995), the most suitable of them have melting temperatures between 313 and 314 K. A list of potential PCMs, their latent heat and melting temperatures is given in Tyagi et al. (2012).
