Abstract:This study investigated various aspects of thermal storage concept, including material characterization
and analysis of form-stable, unencapsulated phase-change materials (PCM) that underwent solid-solid phase transition and was in direct contact with the working fluid. The study focused on temperature range between 100-140°C (212-284°F). Mathematical heat transfer models were developed to examine the operating characteristics of the thermal energy storage unit, identify key parameters
