Thermal energy storage (TES) systems store heat or cold for later use and are classified into sensible heat storage, latent heat storage, and thermochemical heat storage. Sensible heat storage systems raise the temperature of a material to store heat. Latent heat storage systems use PCMs to store heat through melting or solidifying.
Thermal energy storage materials for chemical heat storage Chemical heat storage systems use reversible reactions which involve absorption and release of heat for the purpose of thermal energy storage. They have a middle range operating temperature between 200 °C and 400 °C.
Sensible heat thermal energy storage materials store heat energy in their specific heat capacity (C p). The thermal energy stored by sensible heat can be expressed as (1) Q = m · C p · Δ T where m is the mass (kg), C p is the specific heat capacity (kJ.kg −1.K −1) and ΔT is the raise in temperature during charging process.
