Thermophysical characterization of sorption TCM
Barreneche Güerisoli, Camila; Fernández Renna, Ana Inés; Cabeza, Luisa F.; Cuypers, Ruud
Thermochemical materials (TCM) are proposed for thermal energy storage as one of the future options to achieve lower energy consumption in buildings and other industrial applications, as well as to store energy from solar energy. In this study, the thermophysical properties of two TCM, CaCl2 and zeolite, are determined with TGA and DSC and samples are cycled 4 times with TGA. Results show that the material with the highest energy density is the salt, CaCl2. Moreover, both materials under study present noble cyclability. The work is partially funded by the Spanish government (ENE2011-28269-C03-02 and ENE2011-22722). The authors would like to thank the Catalan Government for the quality accreditation given to their research group GREA (2009 SGR 534) and research group DIOPMA (2009 SGR 645). Furthermore, the work was partially funded by European Union (Cost Action TU0802).
