| الوصف: | International audience ; The integration of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) as Cold Thermal Energy Storage (CTES) components represents an important advancement in refrigeration system efficiency. These materials have demonstrated significant capabilities in storing and releasing thermal energy, leading to improved system performance and reduced energy consumption. Conventional PCMs such as water/ice, hydrated salts, and paraffin are commonly used in CTES applications due to their favorable thermal properties and/or cost-effectiveness. This review paper explores the benefits and performance of integrating conventional PCMs in various refrigeration systems. It thoroughly discusses the effects of PCM integration on energy consumption, temperature stabilization, storage product quality, and greenhouse gas emissions.While conventional PCMs are widely used in CTES applications, there is growing interest in exploring sustainable alternatives. Bio-based PCMs, derived from biomass and bio-waste materials, have shown promise as thermal storage candidates. Although these materials have been extensively studied for building applications, their potential in CTES applications remains largely unexplored. This paper also provides a detailed evaluation of bio-based materials based on their phase change temperature and latent heat, assessing their suitability for use in CTES applications.Through this extensive review, the paper provides insights into the current state and future potential of PCM technology in CTES, highlighting both the proven benefits of conventional PCMs in enhancing refrigeration system efficiency and the potential sustainability of bio-based PCMs. |
