1. Introduction Phase change energy storage materials (PCESM) refer to compounds capable of efficiently storing and releasing a substantial quantity of thermal energy during the phase transition process.
Phase change materials absorb thermal energy as they melt, holding that energy until the material is again solidified. Better understanding the liquid state physics of this type of thermal storage may help accelerate technology development for the energy sector.
Materials with phase changes effectively store energy. Solar energy is used for air-conditioning and cooking, among other things. Latent energy storage is dependent on the storage medium’s phase transition. Acetate of metal or nonmetal, melting point 150–500°C, is used as a storage medium.
