“…Therefore, energy storage and thermal management are considered an effective strategy for achieving sustainable energy development. The storage methods of thermal energy are divided into latent heat, sensible heat, and chemical heat storage, and the principle of latent heat storage is the mainstream [9]. The latent heat storage method has been widely studied due to its compact structure and ability to store energy at nearly constant temperatures corresponding to the material phase transition temperature.…”

With the proposal of the concept of "green building", building energy conservation has become a hot topic today. Because of their many advantages, phase change materials (PCMs) have played an exemplary role in the field of building energy conservation, but there are still some problems. In this paper, we introduce the concept, classification and specific application of PCMs, and their future development is prospected.

“…The stability of the PCM is essential to choose it for a particular application, and it can be done by impregnation of PCM into porous material. Singh et al (2020) analyzed the heat transfer properties of eutectic organic phase change materials. The microencapsulation method is used to prevent the organic eutectic PCMs from leakage with stable composites.…”

The energy storage application plays a vital role in the utilization of the solar energy technologies. There are various types of the energy storage applications are available in the todays world. Phase change materials (PCMs) are suitable for various solar energy systems for prolonged heat energy retaining, as solar radiation is sporadic. This literature review presents the application of the PCM in solar thermal power plants, solar desalination, solar cooker, solar air heater, and solar water heater. Even though the availability and cost of PCMs are complex and high, the PCMs are used in most solar energy methods due to their significant technical parameters improvisation. This review's detailed findings paved the way for future recommendations and methods for the investigators to carry work for further system developments.

“…However, due to their low thermal conductivity and flammability, they are not easy to be directly used in practical applications. 95 Many researchers have developed microcapsule PCM to overcome these problems. Alkan et al 96 investigated the thermal performance of microencapsulated docosane using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) as a TES material.…”

This article reviews the design of solar phase-change energy storage systems and their applications in residential buildings. The solar thermal collection system has high heat collection efficiency, no pollution, and it is also widely used in the field of building heating. In order to improve the efficiency of the solar collector system, the researchers found that integrating phase-change materials (PCMs) into the solar thermal collector system can achieve this goal, but there will be a problem of PCM leakage. Some researchers have solved this problem by microencapsulating PCMs, the thermal conductivity and energy storage efficiency of the PCMs after microencapsulation will be greatly affected. Adjusting the solar collector to an appropriate inclination angle can achieve the highest heat collection efficiency. Choosing the PCM in the appropriate temperature zone can improve the system efficiency. For the separated solar collector system, the parts that need to be considered include the type of heat exchanger, the structure of the energy storage heat exchanger, the shape of the heat exchanger fins, the type of solar collector, and so on. All in all, coupling PCM into the solar collector system can improve energy efficiency reduce carbon emissions and have good economics, the maximum internal rate of return of solar collectors integrated with PCMs in residential and industrial applications is 22% and 17.2%.
