Description
Description
Advances in Thermal Energy Storage Systems: Methods and Applications, Third Edition covers thermal energy storage systems, (TES) including major advances and developments since the previous edition. It provides comprehensive coverage of TES technologies and their applications across the energy, power, construction, and transport sectors, reflecting the growing role of energy storage in improving efficiency, flexibility, and decarbonization.
The book reviews the principles, design, and operation of sensible, latent, and thermochemical thermal energy storage systems. After an introduction to TES systems, the book examines the source, design, and operation of thermal energy storage technologies using water, molten salts, concrete, aquifers, boreholes, and phase change materials before addressing thermochemical energy storage and emerging storage solutions. This edition also incorporates recent technological developments, including thermal energy storage using solid particles and packed-bed tanks, cryogenic latent heat storage, solid-solid phase change materials, advanced monitoring and control systems, and sector coupling strategies that enhance energy-system flexibility through TES integration.
Advances in Thermal Energy Storage Systems: benefits researchers and academics of energy systems and thermal energy storage, construction engineering academics, engineers and practitioners in the energy and power industry, as well as architects of plants and storage systems and R&D managers.
