Phase change materials (PCMs) are mainly used for energy in cold storage applications and enhancement potential of releasing and storing heat during phase transformation from solid to liquid respectively. In building construction materials or cold storages, incorporation of PCMs is a booming technology. Lot of problems exists in appropriate selection of PCMs in recent trends due to its high cost and poor thermal conductivity as well as increase in virus infectivity. Paper focuses on comprehensive analysis of various PCMs (i.e. paraffin, polyethylene glycol 400, HS01, OM03, organic mixture and Salt hydrates) used in cold storages for vegetables in India to make them energy efficient.
