摘要
This paper gives a comprehensive review on recent developments and the previous research studies on cold thermal energy storage using phase change materials (PCM). Such commercially available PCMs having the potential to be used as material for cold energy storage are categorised and listed with their melting point and latent heat of fusion. Also techniques for improving the thermo-physical properties of PCM such as heat transfer enhancement, encapsulation, inclusion of nanostructures and shape stabilization are reviewed. The effect of stability due to the corrosion of construction materials is also reported. Finally, different applications where the PCM can be employed for cold energy storage such as free cooling of building, air-conditioning, refrigerated trucks and cold packing are discussed.
