Application of Phase Change Materials in Energy Storage and Conversion Systems

By Mahdi Alibeigi PhD Candidate, Farzad Ghafoorian, Mehdi Mehrpooya

Application of Phase Change Materials in Energy Storage and Conversion Systems delves into the use of phase change materials (PCMs) in various energy storage and conversion systems. Starting with an explanation of renewable energy and thermal energy storage, the book comprises thirteen chapters that systematically cover PCM fundamentals and their modeling, design parameters for thermal systems, and factors influencing PCM storage capacity. Additional critical points include the exploration of PCM applications in thermal energy storage systems and buildings, the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for PCM modeling, and optimization techniques for thermal energy storage systems.

This is a comprehensive resource for anyone interested in the theoretical and practical aspects of PCMs. Engineers, researchers, students, and system designers will find this book invaluable for understanding and utilizing PCMs in energy storage solutions.
