Latent heat storage systems are often said to have higher storage densities than storage systems based on sensible heat storage. This is not generally true; for most PCMs, the phase change enthalpy Δh pc corresponds to the change in sensible heat with a temperature change between 100–200 K, so the storage density of sensible
