Abstract:

With the rapid development of the cold chain logistics industry, the demand for efficient, energy-saving, and environmentally friendly refrigeration technologies is increasing day by day. Phase change energy storage materials (PCM), as a new type of refrigeration material, exhibit unique thermal effects in cold chain logistics transportation. This article provides a detailed analysis of the thermal effect mechanism of phase change energy storage materials in cold chain logistics transportation, including their roles in maintaining low-temperature environments, reducing energy consumption costs, improving refrigeration efficiency, and energy conservation and environmental protection. By combining theoretical exploration with practical application cases, this article aims to reveal the enormous potential and application value of phase change energy storage materials in cold chain logistics, providing scientific reference and inspiration for the industry.

Key words: cold chain logistics, thermal effect, energy saving
