Get a quoteA common approach to thermal storage is to use what is known as a phase change material (PCM), where input heat melts the material and its phase change — from solid to liquid — stores energy. When the PCM is cooled back down below its melting point, it turns back into a solid, at which point the stored energy is released as heat.

The thermal energy stored by sensible heat can be expressed as Q = m ⋅ C p ⋅ Δ T, where m is the mass (kg), C p is the specific heat capacity (kJ kg −1 K −1 ) and Δ T is the raise in temperature during charging process.
