Optimization of energy consumption and temperature fluctuations for a household freezer using non‐toxic and non‐flammable eutectic phase change materials with a cascade arrangement

Abstract: Summary This study conducted to evaluate the effect that melting temperature and the amount of phase change materials (PCMs) has on energy consumption and temperature behavior of a household freezer. Two eutectic PCMs, serving as cold storage elements, were innovatively configured in a cascade‐like arrangement on six trays of a freezer with respect to the air temperature distribution of the interior compartment in order to reduce temperature fluctuations inside the freezer and to lower energy consumption. The … Show more
