Experimental evaluation of commercial heat exchangers for use as PCM thermal storage systems

TL;DR: In this paper, the heat transfer process during melting (charge) and solidification (discharge) of five small heat exchangers working as latent heat thermal storage systems was investigated experimentally, and the results showed that the double pipe heat exchanger with the PCM embedded in a graphite matrix (DPHX-PCM matrix) is the one with higher values, in the range of 700-800 W/m 2 -K, which are one order of magnitude higher than the ones presented by the second best.
