Thermal energy storage units conventionally have the drawback of slow charging response. Thus, heat transfer enhancement techniques are required to reduce charging time. Using nanoadditives is a promising approach to enhance the heat transfer and energy storage response time of materials that store heat by undergoing a reversible phase change, so-called phase change materials.

Article Synopsis
  • Thermal energy storage can help stabilize renewable energy supply by using phase changes to store and release heat as needed.
  • Incorporating copper foam into the storage units can reduce charge leakage and improve heat transfer rates, enhancing their efficiency.
  • Optimizing the design, such as the foam's height and porosity, along with the concentration of nanoparticles, can significantly reduce charging time, making these systems much more effective.
