Investigations on Latent Thermal Energy Storage for Concentrating Solar Power
… heat in the form of latent heat of fusion of a phase change material (PCM), in addition to sensible heat, significantly increases the energy density, thus potentially reducing the storage size and cost. However, a major technical barrier to the use of latent thermal energy of PCM is the high …

Multiscale Simulation of Thermocline Energy Storage for Concentrating Solar Power
… substitution of the internal rock filler with an encapsulated phase-change material (PCM), which adds a high density latent heat storage mechanism to the tank assembly. The reduced-order thermocline tank model is first updated to include capsules of a hypothetical PCM and then reintegrated into …
