so the latent heat of vaporisation for a substance is usually greater than its latent heat of fusion. The table shows some typical values: Substance Specific latent heat of fusion (kJ/kg ...

Researchers at Politecnico di Torino in Italy are testing how latent heat thermal storage (LHTS) could be used in combination with rooftop PV to achieve nearly zero-energy buildings (NZEB).

The experimental system utilizes passive cooling, as it uses the latent heat of fusion of PCM and the latent heat of evaporation of water. “The drawback of the PV-PCM system is mitigated with ...
