ABSTRACT

Thermal energy storage system has significant influence on energy conservation. Based on the literature review, it is identified that very few studies have been reported on performance assessment of latent and sensible thermal energy storage systems. This study presents an experimental study on latent and sensible thermal energy storage systems to investigate their performance during discharging cycle. Results have shown that the latent heat storage system has improvement of about 104% in discharging time and 4.1 times more energy is recovered as compared to the sensible heat storage system. It is recommended on the basis of obtained results to operate the systems at lower mass flow rate during discharging.

摘要

热能储能系统对节能有显着影响。根据文献综述，发现很少有关于潜热和显热储能系统性能评估的研究报道。本研究对潜热和显热储能系统进行了实验研究，以研究其在放电循环中的性能。结果表明，与显热蓄热系统相比，潜热蓄热系统的放电时间提高了约 104%，能量回收量提高了 4.1 倍。根据获得的结果，建议在排放期间以较低的质量流量运行系统。
