A combined heat transfer and exergy analysis is developed and used to quantify the performance of a latent heat thermal energy storage system (LHTES) for solar power generation taking into account two practical constraints. First, for long-term operation the thermal energy stored must equal the thermal energy recovered. The second constraint is imposed by the 24 h day. To maximize the second-law performance...
A thermal network model is developed to predict the performance of latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems including cascaded phase change materials (PCMs) and embedded heat pipes/thermosyphons. Because the design of LHTES systems involves a compromise between the amount of energy stored, the heat transfer rate, and the quality of the released thermal energy, an exergy analysis is also...
