Imperial College London scientists have designed an air-source heat pump system (ASHP) to provide space heating (SH) and domestic hot water (DHW) for single-family dwellings, powered by solar. “The ...

Researchers in Malaysia designed a photovoltaic-thermal system that can be used in solar drying, space heating, rooftop systems, and off-grid thermal applications. It relies on a double-pass cooling ...

We proposed a PCM-based energy storage solution to be integrated in air-distribution systems. Charging and discharging of the PCM storage can be achieved through dynamic reset of the supply air ...

A team of materials scientists has developed a new bio based carbon material that can store thermal energy more efficiently while preventing one of ...

In recent years, the use of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in thermal management systems (TMS) has garnered increased interest due to their high latent heat storage capacity, which enables effective ...

Advanced thermal energy storage is playing an increasingly important role in improving the performance and reliability of solar energy systems. In this ...

PCMs are materials that absorb and release thermal energy through changes in their physical state. They can be categorized as liquid-gas, solid-solid, solid-gas, and solid-liquid, depending on their ...
