The binary emulsifier did affect the morphology of the capsules. The MEPCM packed bed unit did increase the energy storage density. a r t i c l e i n f o a b s t r a c t Article history: In this paper a novel microencapsulated phase change material (MF-3) has been developed and tested for Received 31 August 2016 solar assisted hot water storage systems. Even though the morphology of the sample was affected by the Revised 23 October 2016 type of emulsifier used for fabrication it recorded the highest energy storage capacity of 126 kJ/kg with Accepted 1 November 2016 encapsulation efficiency of 97.4% as compared with other developed samples. For the purpose of assess- Available online 2 November 2016 ing its thermal effectiveness it was theoretically evaluated in a compacted fixed bed TES unit and found to
