==Simplified Explanation==

This abstract describes a chemical heat storage device that aims to rapidly adsorb an adsorbate (a substance that is adsorbed onto a surface) onto a heat storage material. The device includes a liquid adsorbate, a heat storage material, and a sprayer. The heat storage material releases heat when the adsorbate is adsorbed onto it and stores the heat when the adsorbate is desorbed. The sprayer is used to spray the adsorbate onto the heat storage material, causing it to release the stored heat. This configuration allows for faster diffusion of the adsorbate within the heat storage material.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

To adsorb an adsorbate rapidly on a heat storage material with good energy efficiency. A chemical heat storage device includes an adsorbate, a heat storage material, and a sprayer. The adsorbate is in a liquid state at normal temperature. The heat storage material releases heat of adsorption in response to adsorption of the adsorbate on the heat storage material and stores the heat of adsorption in response to desorption of the adsorbate from the heat storage material. The sprayer sprays the adsorbate on the heat storage material in a heat release period of causing the heat storage material to release the heat of adsorption. With the above-described configuration, it is possible to increase a speed of diffusion of the adsorbate in the heat storage material through spraying of the adsorbate on the heat storage material.
