Short summary
The present work discusses the utilization of phase change materials for energy storage in geothermal space heating systems. The thermodynamics and thermoeconomics of the combined heating and thermal storing system were studied to show the scope of energy storage and cost savings. A computational model of the combined space heating and thermal storage system was developed and used to perform thermodynamic studies of the heat storage process and heating system efficiency.
