Review of passive PCM latent heat thermal energy storage systems towards buildings’ energy efficiency

Thermal energy storage (TES) is a technology that stocks thermal energy by heating or cooling a storage medium so that the stored energy can be used at a later time for heating and cooling applications and power generation TES systems are used particularly in buildings and in industrial processes This paper is focused on TES technologies that provide a way of valorizing solar heat and reducing the energy demand of buildings The principles of several energy storage methods and calculation of storage capacities are described Sensible heat storage technologies, including water tank, underground, and packed-bed storage methods, are briefly reviewed Additionally, latent-heat storage systems associated with phase-change materials for use in solar heating/cooling of buildings, solar water heating, heat-pump systems, and concentrating solar power plants as well as thermo-chemical storage are discussed Finally, cool thermal energy storage is also briefly reviewed and outstanding information on the performance and costs of TES systems are included

Multi-dimensional optimization of the incorporation of PCM-drywalls in lightweight steel-framed residential buildings in different climates

This paper aims to provide the current state of the art of solar adsorption refrigeration systems operating with the single-bed intermittent cycle (also known as basic cycle). A comprehensive literature review has been conducted and it was concluded that this technology, although attractive, has limitations regarding its performance that seem difficult to overcome. Therefore, new approaches were identified to increase the efficiency and sustainability of basic adsorption cycles, like the development of hybrid or thermal energy storage adsorption systems. A survey of the developments in these new research trends is also presented in this paper. It shows that there are simple adsorption cycles which can be attractive alternatives not only to serve the needs for air-conditioning, refrigeration, ice making, thermal energy storage or hybrid heating and cooling purposes, as standalone or integrated systems, but also to meet the demands for energy conservation and environmental protection.

Review and future trends of solar adsorption refrigeration systems

The improvement of the use of renewable energy sources, such as solar thermal energy, and the reduction of energy demand during the several stages of buildings' life cycle is crucial towards a more sustainable built environment. This paper presents an overview of the main features of lightweight steel-framed (LSF) construction with cold-formed elements from the point of view of life cycle energy consumption. The main LSF systems are described and some strategies for reducing thermal bridges and for improving the thermal resistance of LSF envelope elements are presented. Several passive strategies for increasing the thermal storage capacity of LSF solutions are discussed and particular attention is devoted to the incorporation of phase change materials (PCMs). These materials can be used to improve indoor thermal comfort, to reduce the energy demand for air-conditioning and to take advantage of solar thermal energy. The importance of reliable dynamic and holistic simulation methodologies to assess the energy demand for heating and cooling during the operational phase of LSF buildings is also discussed. Finally, the life cycle assessment (LCA) and the environmental performance of LSF construction are reviewed to discuss the main contribution of this kind of construction towards more sustainable buildings.
