Examples of sensible heat include heating water in a tank, warming up a rock bed in a thermal storage system, or increasing air temperature in a building for heating purposes.
Sensible heat storage is utilized in various applications, including residential and commercial heating and cooling, industrial processes, and large-scale power generation, particularly in conjunction with renewable energy sources.
Sensible Heat Storage is often compared with other thermal energy storage methods, such as latent heat storage and thermochemical storage. Unlike latent heat storage, which relies on the phase change of materials (e.g., melting and freezing), sensible heat storage involves no phase change.
This chapter presents a state-of-the-art review on the available thermal energy storage (TES) technologies by sensible heat for building applications. After a brief introduction, the basic principles and the required features for desired sensible heat storage are...
This chapter describes the processes of sensible heat storage. Sensible heat is the heat stored in a material, except for phase changes. Sensible heat storage in a material consists of its enthalpy increase during the storage phase, heat being released during the discharge phase.
TES is defined as the temporary holding of thermal energy in the form of hot or cold substances for later utilization. The application range can be from solar energy storage at high temperature level to heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC&R) at low temperature level.
Abstract This chapter reviews the use of sensible heat for energy storage. Most commonly this method is used to store excess thermal energy for later recovery as thermal energy for space heating or the production of hot water for domestic use, but larger scale facilities are also possible.

Sensible heat storage (SHS) is a method of storing thermal energy by heating a substance with a high heat capacity, such as water or rock, and holding it at an elevated temperature for later use.

Sensible heat storage is in the form of rise in the temperature of PCM which is a function of the specific heat capacity and mass of the material. The materials generally used are water, pebbles, rocks, concrete and sand etc.
The amount of stored heat is proportional to the density, specific heat, volume, and temperature variation of the storage materials. Basically, specific heat, density and thermal conductivity are the main thermal properties of sensible heat storage materials. Fig. 1 shows the main thermal properties of sensible heat materials. Fig. 1.
The materials used for sensible heat storage should have a high heat capacity and a high boiling or melting point. Although this method is currently less efficient for heat storage, it is the simplest and least expensive compared to latent or chemical heat storage.
