A fundamental understanding of latent thermal energy storage heat exchangers by decomposition and integration of energy fractions in order to obtain general methods for design and experimental characterization Ghent University
Energy storage is required for the mass implementation of renewable energy sources into our energy mix. Smart latent thermal energy storage (LTES) coupled to heat pumps has been identified by the European commission as a key enabling technology. Due to the high potential of LTES systems, a large amount of research has been performed on storage materials, heat transfer enhancement and implementation of LTES in specific applications. However, ...
