CFD virtual prototyping of a high temperature energy storage system
Year: 2024
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This paper presents a literature review of existing technological solutions for thermal energy storage in solid- or liquid-storage batteries. The lack of a comprehensive approach for the analysis of high-temperature single-chamber accumulators with solid heat storage media is defined. A concept for modeling and studying such a thermal accumulator is presented. A physical and numerical virtual model of a single-chamber thermal accumulator for high-temperature energy storage and dissipation, including for domestic purposes and heating, is built. Initial simulations show very good agreement of the numerical model with practice.
