A vapor compression refrigerator and heated room with fan heater were used to supply constant heat transfer fluid at a minimum temperature of - 28ºC for charging and 16ºC for discharging. Even though the temperature differences were not fixed in the experiments, the performance of the thermal energy storage is depicted in the form of effectiveness values. Different results were obtained for charging and discharging the thermal storage unit. The differences are expected to come from natural convection and super cooling. The super cooling during the charging process was as high as 6ºC. 2013-12-06T13:20:32Z 2013-12-06T13:20:32Z 2013 Article Applied Mechanics and Materials, vol. 367, 2013, pages 228 - 233 1660-9336 http://www.scientific.net/AMM.367.228 http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/30229 en Trans Tech Publications
