6. Conclusions
-An assessment of the waste heat produced by common appliances was done.
-A latent heat based Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system was developed, analyzed and tested.
14
-A macro encapsulated organic PCM, with melting point of 32°C, was selected as suitable and reliable solution.
-A real scale prototype was built and tested to evaluate its capability of storing and delivering thermal energy.
-The results of the preliminary tests show the potential of the energy storage system.
The Bauknecht GreenKitchen™refrigerator and dishwasher worktogether to save water and energyby reusing wasted heat from therefrigerator to preheat water in thedishwasher (A+++ Dishwasher).
