Storage of heat is seen as a major issue for the development of solar energy for house heating and
cooling under all climates. Most of the storage systems available on the market use water as the
storage medium. The idea studied here was to add a phase change material (PCM) module at the top
of a hot-water storage tank with stratification. An experimental solar pilot plant was constructed to
test the PCM behaviour in real conditions. The PCM module geometry adopted was to use several
cylinders. A granular PCM–graphite compound was chosen as the PCM for the experiments
presented here.
