  5. 5. Numerical Analysis ofLatent Thermal Energy Storage in a Cavity

    University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

    Author : Robert Olrog; [2017]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Latent Thermal Energy Storage (LTES) has drawn attention because the technology is a simple and cost-efficient method to store large amounts of energy. Latent energy is either stored or released when the material inside the LTES undergoes phase-change. READ MORE
