Summary: The study investigates the shape stability of shape stabilized composite phase change materials (SSCPCM) and their kinetic behavior for solar thermal energy storage. The researchers developed an algorithm using artificial neural network to predict the phase change temperature and heat flow of composite PCMs. The results show that SSCPCM has higher activation energy, shorter charging and discharging time, and higher thermal conductivity compared to traditional PCMs, making it an attractive solution with improved performance for thermal energy storage systems. The algorithm effectively predicts the phase change temperature and heat flow of SSCPCM, which is helpful for the design and selection of PCM for thermal energy storage systems.

Summary: Advanced phase change energy storage technology is considered one of the most effective strategies to utilize renewable energy for energy saving and environmental protection. Solid-liquid phase change materials (PCMs) have high energy storage density and excellent constant temperature performance, but they face challenges such as volume expansion, leakage, and low thermal conductivity during phase change. Encapsulating PCMs with porous materials to create composite phase change materials (ss-PCMs) is an effective way to overcome these challenges and improve their thermal properties.
