This paper presents a thorough review on the recent developments and latest research
studies on cold thermal energy storage (CTES) using phase change materials (PCM) …

The use of phase change materials (PCMs) has enormous potential to store thermal energy
from a low-temperature heat source as well as from waste heat as latent heat. The amount of …

Foodstuff has to be transported from where it is produced or packaged to the market. It is
important to control the temperature and humidity of the delivered food to minimize the waste …

Over the past two decades, latent thermal energy storage has been a proven technology to
improve the performance of refrigeration appliances. In this work, an up to date literature …

Abstract The use of Phase Change Material (PCM) as a cold accumulator in refrigeration
contexts leads to better food safety, food security and energy management. However …

The aim of this paper is to study the potential of two heat transfer enhancement techniques,
namely adding fins and hybrid nanoparticle (Cu and Al 2 O 3), for improvement of the …

This paper reports a phase change material (PCM) based passively cooled container for
integrated rail-road cold chain. It was equipped with cold energy storage plates containing …

Phase change materials (PCMs) have gained much attention due to their high ratio of
energy density to mass and their near isothermal behaviour during melting and …

Thermal energy storage systems (TESS) have emerged as significant global concerns in the
design and optimization of devices and processes aimed at maximizing energy utilization …
