A review of imidazolium ionic liquid-based phase change materials for low and medium temperatures thermal energy storage and their applications
Sensible, latent, and thermochemical energy storages for different temperatures ranges are investigated with a current special focus on sensible and latent thermal energy storages. Thermochemical heat storage is a technology under development with potentially high-energy densities.
In sensible heat, energy is stored by raising the temperature of a medium. The amount of energy stored is proportional to the physical properties of the storage material, including density, volume, specific heat, and temperature change of the storage material .
The thermal energy storage strategies may be classified into three major groups. They are (a) sensible heat storage, (b) thermochemical heat storage, and (c) latent heat storage. Sensible heat storage is the simplest way to store energy. It consists of a material whose temperature increases/decreases in the energy absorption/release process.
Thermal energy storage can be achieved through 3 distinct ways: sensible; latent or thermochemical heat storage. Sensible heat storage relies on the material’s specific heat capacity.
The benefit of solid media is larger temperature ranges relative to molten nitrate salts (from below freezing to greater than 1000°C). Latent energy storage uses phase-change materials that change states from solid to liquid, providing additional energy storage capacity through the latent heat of fusion.
Latent heat storage is the result of the phase change phenomenon. This kind of storage has a more significant energy storage density than sensible heat storage . Since this review focuses on latent heat energy storage, the materials to achieve this storage will be described next.
