Abstract

Abstract This paper presents a detailed review of shell materials that have the potential to be used for high temperature thermal energy storage (TES) applications, particularly in conjunction with concentrated solar power (CSP) plants. This paper considers shell materials that are thermally stable at more than 300 °C and have successfully been used to encapsulate a phase change material (PCM). The current review does not consider the thermal performance of the shell material and PCM combinations that have been studied. Using these constraints several feasible materials were identified including: steel (carbon and stainless), nickel (and nickel alloy), sodium silicate, silicon dioxide, calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide. These materials have the potential to encapsulate high temperature PCMs and thus provide a suitable method of high temperature TES.
