This is mainly due to the potential use of PCMs as latent storage media in a large variety of applications. Although many kinds of PCMs are already commercial products, advanced materials with improved properties and new latent storage concepts are required to better meet the specific requirements of different applications. Moreover, the development of common validation procedures for PCMs is an important issue that should be addressed in order to achieve commercial deployment and implementation of these kinds of materials in latent storage systems. The key subjects addressed on the five papers included in this Special Issue are related to methodologies for material selection, PCM validation and assessment procedures, innovative approaches of PCM applications together with simulation and testing of latent storage prototypes. 606 $aTechnology: general issues$2bicssc 610 $a0D dynamic model 610 $acapacity 610 $adegradation 610 $adistrict heating 610 $aenergy storage 610 $aheat dissipation fins 610 $aheat exchanger 610 $aheat transfer 610 $aheating and cooling 610 $ahigh power 610 $alatent heat 610 $alatent heat storage 610 $alatent heat thermal storage 610 $alithium-ion battery 610 $amaterial selection 610 $amulti-energy system 610 $an/a 610 $apcm 610 $aphase change material 610 $aphase change material (PCM) 610 $aphase change materials (PCM) 610 $aselection methodology 610 $astable supercooling 610 $atemperature 610 $athermal cycling stability 610 $athermal energy storage (TES) 610 $athermal management 610 $athermal network 615 7$aTechnology: general issues 700 $aBayo?n$b Roci?o$4edt$01299437 702 $aBayo?n$b Roci?o$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557360403321 996 $aAdvanced Phase Change Materials for Thermal Storage$93025159 997 $aUNINA
