Latent versus sensible thermal storage for load-shifting energy management in medium-deep U-type geothermal heat pump systems: A comparative performance analysis

Thermal energy storage can enhance load shifting and extend heat-pump shutdown periods in medium-deep U-type borehole heat exchanger (MDUBHE) heating systems. However, latent and sensible thermal energy storage are commonly evaluated separately, and their differences in heat-supp...
