Abstract:
A rack for holding flat panels containing PCM while the flat panels are conditioned and a method of conditioning the flat panels. The rack includes a frame structure defining an interior through which a conditioning air flow is directed. The interior includes a plurality of vertically spaced shelves for supporting the flat panels in a vertically spaced apart arrangement. The shelves are configured to hold the flat panels with at least a majority of their upper and lower surfaces in contact with the conditioning air flow. A conditioning method includes arranging the flat panels in a spaced apart array in the rack to create air flow channels between adjacent surfaces of the flat panels. Air is circulated between and in contact with the flat panels at a first temperature sufficient to bring the temperature of the PCM in each flat panel at least closer to a required temperature range.

Claim (Index 19):
The method of  claim 6 , further comprising:\n loading the flat panels through both front and rear access openings of the rack into respective front and rear compartments in the spaced apart slots to create air flow channels between adjacent upper and lower surfaces of the flat panels, and placing front and rear securing mechanisms into closed positions relative to the respective front and rear access openings to secure the flat panels in the front and rear compartments.
