Abstract

The essence of the research was the modeling of a real electric energy storage system in a phase change battery operating in a foil tunnel. The scope of the work covered the construction of two partial models, i.e., energy storage in the PCM accumulator and heat losses in the PCM accumulator. Their construction was based on modeling methods selected on the basis of a literature review and previous analyses, i.e., artificial neural networks, random forest, enhanced regression trees, MARS plines, standard multiple regression, standard regression trees, exhaustive for regression trees. Based on the analysis of the error values, the models of the best quality were selected. The final result of this study was the construction of such a model of the process of storing electricity in a PCM battery, characterized by the mean absolute percentage error forecast error of 1–2%. The achievement of this goal was possible thanks to the use of the artificial neural networks model for which the input variables were the amount of energy supplied to the accumulator and the temperature of the heat storage medium.
