Latent heat storage has allured great attention because it provides the potential to achieve energy savings and effective utilization [1–3]. The latent heat storage is also known as phase change heat storage, which is accomplished by absorbing and releasing thermal energy during phase transition.
Latent storage involves storing heat in a phase-change material that utilizes the large latent heat of phase change, for example, during isothermal melting of a solid to a liquid, which requires heat, and subsequent freezing of the liquid to a solid, which releases heat, isothermally.
According to the authors, latent heat thermal storage (LHTS)increases the initial cost of a thermal system, but saves energy in the long-range and allows to run the system continually in spite of the discontinuity of the heat source.
Regarding the material, latent heat storage orphase change materials(PCM) were selected for this study because they are a very promising type of storage to be integrated in thermal industrial processes, although the state of the art of latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) systems is still far from broad commercialization.
Until now, no reviews of latent heat storage for industrial applications at medium-high temperatures (120–400 °C) have been published.
