The demand for electricity has been increasing worldwide and it is predicted that this trend will be particularly reinforced in developing countries by the gradual electrification of the transport sector and heat generation in buildings. The energy... Read More about An approach for energy management of renewable energy sources using electric vehicles and heat pumps in an integrated electricity grid system.

Thermal management of using crystallization-controllable supercooled PCM in space heating applications for different heating profiles in the UK (2023)
Journal Article
Kutlu, C., Su, Y., Lyu, Q., & Riffat, S. (2023). Thermal management of using crystallization-controllable supercooled PCM in space heating applications for different heating profiles in the UK. Renewable Energy, 206, 848-857. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.renene.2023.02.077

Supercooled sodium acetate trihydrate (SAT) allows the latent heat can be released when it is externally triggered regardless of the supercooling degree. Thus, the implementation of SAT into heating systems can eliminate the negative effects of weath...
