In the present time several techniques have been developed in managing and storing thermal energy. Use of Thermal energy storage systems (TES) are one of the solutions for this issue. Hence in the present work, phase change materials (PCM) are used for storing thermal energy. D-mannitol and Hydroquinone are the two PCM materials used in double pipe heat exchanger and simulations are carried out analytically on ANSYS. Study of temperature variation is done with respect to time and values are calculated for time, t = 200, 500, 2200 and 4200 seconds. The results also include contour plots and numerical values for mass fraction for each of the case. The result shows, that with increase in the time step, the temperature gradually increases for both the cases of PCM materials.

AbstractTo ensure low-energy consumption in new generation energy-efficient houses, the technology of a ground heat exchanger with a heat recovery system is used almost everywhere. However, this technology has not been widely disseminated in Ukraine. The work is aimed at presenting insights from research on the combination of ground heat exchangers with a heat recovery system for building ventilation by analyzing the operational and techno-economic indicators obtained. Current studies permit revealing the optimal configuration of a ground heat exchanger with a heat recovery system for ventilation in a residential building in order to analyze the efficiency of ground heat exchangers with a heat recovery system for ventilation of a residential building in comparison with several conventional ventilation options to assess the main price/ performance ration of the process of constructing a ground heat exchanger with a heat recovery system and to determine the duration of the technological process, the labor-intensive characteristics, and the estimated cost of the technology.
