Effective estimation of the state-of-charge of latent heat thermal energy storage for heating and cooling systems using non-linear state observers - data

The data describe the simulation of mathematical models of thermal energy storage units and their state-of-charge observers.The data is provided by txt files. The simulation results include the time column for each file. Two different thermal energy storage are analyzed. For cooling applications, an ice tank is modeled and for heating applications, a shell-and-tube configuration unit is employed. The charging and discharging processes are simulated. The quantification of the sensible and latent heat stored by the tanks is carried out. Simulations of non-linear observers' performance were done for charging-discharging cycles.  The errors of the non-linear observers included the estimation of the internal temperatures of the phase change material and the heat transfer fluid. They are split into two txt files for each simulation due to 40 variables being simulated.

The header of each column is the name of the variable used in the legend of the plots. The txt files are named according to the number of the plots.
