Abstract

Thermal energy harvesting and its applications significantly rely on thermal energy storage (TES) materials. Critical factors include the material’s ability to store and release heat with minimal temperature differences, the range of temperatures covered, and repetitive sensitivity. The short duration of heat storage limits the effectiveness of TES. Phase change materials (PCMs) are a current global research focus due to their desirable thermal properties, which improve energy performance and thermal comfort. PCMs require relatively less synthesis effort while maintaining high efficiency and enhancing cost-effectiveness. However, limited temperature range and storage capacity restrict the application of conventional PCMs. Consequently, the demand for high-energy PCM storage with enhanced thermo-physical properties is high. It is essential to explore the potential of new PCMs to improve thermal storage performance and capacity while reducing energy consumption. This review article explores the classifications and applications of PCMs, addresses the challenges in enhancing their thermo-physical properties, and outlines the selection criteria for high-heat storage applications. Additionally, it provides an in-depth analysis of recent research and developments related to PCMs.

高蓄热应用中的相变材料：综述

热能采集及其应用在很大程度上依赖于热能储存（TES）材料。关键因素包括材料在最小温差下存储和释放热量的能力、覆盖的温度范围以及重复灵敏度。储热时间短限制了 TES 的有效性。相变材料（PCM）具有理想的热性能，可以改善能源性能和热舒适度，因此是当前全球研究的重点。相变材料所需的合成工作相对较少，同时还能保持高效率，提高成本效益。然而，有限的温度范围和存储容量限制了传统 PCM 的应用。因此，对热物理性能更强的高能 PCM 储能的需求很高。有必要探索新型 PCM 的潜力，以提高热存储性能和容量，同时降低能耗。这篇综述文章探讨了 PCM 的分类和应用，探讨了增强 PCM 热物理性能所面临的挑战，并概述了高热量存储应用的选择标准。此外，文章还深入分析了与 PCM 相关的最新研究和发展。
