Background
Calculation for Thermal Mass E = M x Cp x ΔT
E is the energy required to raise the temperature of an object, In Joules (J) M is the mass of the object, in Kilograms (Kg) C is the specific heat capacity of the material, in joules per kilogram per kelvin (J/Kg.K) ΔT is the increase in temperature (°C or K
Diferent typs of storgage systems
- Air
- Stone or masonary products
- Water or water glycol mixtures
- Phase change materials
| Materal | Heat capacty (Cp | Energy |
|---|---|---|
| Air | ||
| Stone or masonary | ||
| Water | ||
| Water Glycol (50/50 | ||
| Phase change materials |
