The use of Energy Storage – (ES) systems often result in such significant benefits as:

  • Reduced energy costs & consumption
  • Increased flexibility of operation
  • Reduced initial and maintenance costs

A large variety of ES techniques are under development, which can be grouped as follows: Mechanical, Thermal, Chemical, Biological, Magnetic Energy consumption is increasing every day The energy model used by our society is not sustainable

  • H. Jouhara, A.G. Olabi, Editorial: Industrial waste heat recovery, Energy, 160 (2018) 1-2.

The storage of energy in suitable and clean forms is today a challenge to the technologists

PCM: material with capacity to store and release large amounts of energy (latent heat) via phase transition

Applications: Construction, Textile, Food packaging industry, Medical packaging industry, Automobile, Transportation, aerospace, photovoltaics etc

Benefits:

  • Higher storage density than

sensible heat

  • Smaller temperature change

between storing and releasing energy Open issues:

  • shape stabilization
  • Corrosiveness (materials

compatibility)

  • Low thermal conductivity
  • High cost

The use of PLA in contact with two organic PCMs (A44 & A58) for the first time PLA based latent heat storage tanks and encapsulation core material via 3D printing

Metal fabricated tank materials Availability, price, manufacturability (carbon steel, Al and/or Cu alloys ) Organic PCMs: not aggressive to metal container Inorganic PCMs: aggressive to metal container No corrosion of stainless steel (but expensive!!) Polymer materials PP, PET, HDPE and LDPE PET and PP proved to be the best encapsulation materials for the organic PCM while HDPE for the inorganic PCM tested

 PLA does not absorb PCM as seen in previous work with other polymers e.g HDPE, PP  3D printed PLA improves its crystallinity over working time at 65oC  3D printed PLA structure is found stable and inert towards the two organic PCMs  PLA proved so far very promising for organic PCM encapsulation or latent heat storage tank structural material Future work

  • Further tests are needed for long term stability.
  • Contact with other types of PCMs are currently under investigation.
  • Mechanical properties
  • Morphology observation
