MINLP-based hybrid strategy for operating mode selection of TES-backed-up refrigeration systems
G. Bejarano, D. RodrÃguez, J. M. Lemos +2
This brief deals with the satisfaction of the daily cooling demand by a hybrid system that consists of a vapour-compression refrigeration cycle and a thermal energy storage (TES) u…
Novel scheme for a PCM-based cold energy storage system. Design, modelling, and simulation
G. Bejarano, J. J. Suffo, M. Vargas +1
This paper studies the design and dynamic modelling of a novel thermal energy storage (TES) system combined with a refrigeration system based on phase change materials (PCM). Cold-…
Modelling and cooling power control of a TES-backed-up vapour-compression refrigeration system
D. RodrÃguez, G. Bejarano, M. Vargas +2
This work addresses the modelling, power control, and optimization of a thermal energy storage (TES) system combined with a vapour-compression refrigeration facility based on phase…
Efficient simulation strategy for PCM-based cold-energy storage systems
G. Bejarano, M. Vargas, M. G. Ortega +2
This paper proposes a computationally efficient simulation strategy for cold thermal energy storage (TES) systems based on phase change material (PCM). Taking as a starting point t…
