Phase Change Thermal (Heating) Storage Tanks

Is there any E+ experience out there trying to model a thermal storage tank that employs a phase change material as a heat source?

I can see it may be possible to get a lot of flexibility out of the ThermalStorage:Ice:Detailed on the cooling side, but I don' see any input fields that will help me for a hot water tank.
