Download or read book Reversible Chemical Reactions for Energy Storage in a Large scale Heat Utility written by R. Gerald Nix and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes a study of the feasibility of using either Ca(OH)2 or CH4-CO2 reaction systems for long-duration storage in a central receiver, solar energy facility. Results indicate that use of a solar thermal system with long-duration storage of either thermochemical or direct thermal energy (molten draw salt) is probably not justified when compared to the use of coal-fired boilers for steam generation. However, solar thermal systems with either thermochemical or direct thermal energy storage may be competitive with oil- or natural gas-fired boilers if the cost of the solar energy supplied to the storage system is sufficiently low and the costs of oil and natural gas have escalated to a sufficiently high level.

Download or read book Solar Collectors Energy Storage and Materials written by Francis DeWinter and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 1116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solar Collectors, Energy Storage, and Materials covers the materials and basic components needed for solar thermal energy systems. Using thermal performance and durability as the major criteria, the twenty six chapters emphasize the modeling and assessment of devices rather than their application or cost. Each part begins with an overview and concludes with an assessment of current issues and opportunities. The contributors have been careful to document failures as well as successes in materials research. This is the fifth volume in a series that distills the results of the intensive research on and development of solar thermal energy conversion technologies from 1975 to 1986. Francis de Winter is President of the Altas Corporation, Santa Cruz, California and a member of the Santa Cruz Energy Advisory Committee. Contents: Solar Collectors. Collector Concepts and Designs. Optical Theory and Modeling of Solar Collectors. Thermal Theory and Modeling of Solar Collectors. Testing and Evaluation of Stationary Collectors. Testing and Evaluation of Tracking Collectors. Optical Research and Development. Collector Thermal Research and Development. Collector Engineering Research and Development. Solar Pond Research and Development. Reliability and Durability of Solar Collectors. Environmental Degradation of Low-Cost Solar Collectors. Energy Storage for Solar Systems. Storage Concepts and Design. Analytical and Numerical Modeling of Thermal Conversion Systems. Testing and Evaluation of Thermal Energy Storage Systems. Storage Research and Development. Materials for Solar Technologies. Materials for Solar Collector Concepts and Designs. Theory and Modeling of Solar Materials. Testing and Evaluation of Solar Materials. Exposure Testing and Evaluation of Performance Degradation.

Book excerpt: Sustainable engineering is of great importance for resilient and agile technology and society. This book balances economics, environment, and societal elements of sustainable engineering by integrating process intensification, energy analysis, and artificial intelligence to reduce production costs, improve the use of material and energy, product quality, safety, societal well-being, and water usage. The book provides comprehensive discussion of topics on process intensification, energy analysis, and artificial intelligence that include optimization, energy integration, green engineering, pinch analysis, exergy analysis, feasibility analysis, life cycle assessment, circular economy, bioeconomy, data processing, machine learning, expert systems, digital twins, and self-optimized plants for sustainable engineering.
