This paper mainly deals with the charging processes of a cylindrical heat storage capsule filled with stearic acid, sliced paraffin and lauric acid as phase‐change materials (PCMs). Experimental results demonstrate that, compared to the capsule with a single PCM, the charging rate of the capsule employing three PCMs is enhanced obviously.
