Cascade Latent Heat Storage for Solar Cooking Applications

Abstract: The present investigation explores the potential of multiple phase change material (PCM) based storage for real-time solar thermal applications. There are two types of storage configurations tested in this work for the simultaneous charging and discharging operation, i.e., single PCM-based NaNO3 storage and 2-stage cascade latent heat storage having NaNO3 and NaNO2 as the storage mediums in the consecutive stages. The storage is designed to achieve the end-use temperature condition of 513 K (the highest temperature required for cooking) with the latent thermal energy accumulation capacity of 1 MJ. The study envisages that instead of using a single PCM in the storage unit, 2-stage cascading of the PCMs can improve energy accumulation and retrieval in storage. After 8 hours of operation, none of the storage achieves the complete charging state. The energy accumulated in the NaNO3/NaNO2 cascade storage is found to be 2.6 times higher than the energy accumulated in the NaNO3 storage.
