Abstract：

The　thermal　performance　of　an　air-based　latent　thermal　storage　unit　is　analyzed　and　discussed　in　this　study.　The　thermal　storage　unit　uses　flat　micro-heat　pipe　array　(FMHPA)　as　the　core　heat　transfer　component　and　lauric　acid　as　phase　change　material　(PCM).　An　experimental　system　is　constructed　to　test　the　heat　storage-release　property　of　the　storage　unit　under　different　inlet　temperatures　and　flow　rates　of　the　heat　transfer　medium.　The　temperature　uniformity　of　FMHPA,　the　melting/solidification　curves　of　the　PCM　and　the　performance　of　the　storage　unit　are　obtained　based　on　abundant　experimental　data.　Experimental　results　indicate　that　FMHPA　exhibits　excellent　temperature　uniformity　in　the　heat　storage-release　process,　and　the　performance　of　the　storage　unit　is　efficient　and　steady.　The　average　charging　and　discharging　power　of　the　thermal　storage　unit　can　reach　418　W　and　353　W　under　the　experimental　conditions.　©　2016,　Science　Press.　All　right　reserved.
