Introduction
TEAP Energy TEA29 system for thermal storage greatly
increases the density of heat energy that can be
accumulated within any application. At the same time it
ensures a more even release of the stored heat than is
possible with other storage methods.
TEAP Energy TEA29 Phase Change Material (PCM) is an
inorganic hydrated salt which has a large quantity of
energy (in the form of latent heat) which needs to be
absorbed or released when a material changes from the
solid to the liquid state (melting) or from the liquid
to the solid state (freezing). These phase changes take
place at constant temperature and the process can be
repeated over an unlimited number of cycles with no
change to their physical or chemical properties
TEAP Energy TEA29 salt with melting temperature of
approximately 29 oC - a temperature that makes it ideal
for many cooling or heating applications. The PCM offers
the best characteristics with respect to a number of
parameters:
- High energy absorption (heat of fusion, specific
heat) over the operating temperature range of 26 to
32oC i.e. 1 Liter (approx. 32 fluid oz) of TEAP Energy
TEA29salt will release an energy amount equivalent of
12 Liters (over 4 gallons) of water.
- Chemical and thermal stability
- Non-toxic and non-flammable
Applications
TEAP Energy TEA29 PCM thermal storage capsules have
an unlimited number of applications. Examples in some
fields are:
