2. Sensible heat storage

2.1 Thermodynamic considerations

Sensible heat storage involves increasing the enthalpy of a material during the storage phase, with the heat being released during the removal phase. The material may be a liquid or a solid. The sensible effect is a change in temperature. The stored energy can be written as :

Q_{12} = m \int_{T_{1}}^{T_{2}} c_{p} (T) d T
