Résumé

Phase change material heat exchangers (PCM-HX) can be used as a latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) component in heat pump applications to further enhance the efficiency of a heat pump as well as to yield financial savings by peak-load shifting. In this paper, a low-cost commercially available aluminum serpentine heat exchanger with louvered fins was experimentally investigated to check its thermal performance as a PCM-HX. A transparent rectangular box fabricated from acrylic plates served as a PCM container. Two cameras were used to capture the phase change process of the PCM on the front and top sides of the container during the experiment. A total of 88 installed temperature sensors throughout the test setup and a mass flow meter enabled a quantitative analysis of the PCM-HX as well. The energy balance deviation between the estimated theoretical and experimentally calculated PCM storage was ±14% considering the often-neglected heat loss and thermal mass of the PCM-HX. PCM temperature profiles, charge and discharge rates, and energy densities under different test conditions were also investigated.
