Advanced high-temperature thermal energy storage media for industrial applications

Conference ·
OSTI ID:5831353
An advanced thermal energy storage media concept based on use of carbonate salt/ceramic composite materials is being developed for industrial process and reject heat applications. This paper describes the composite latent/sensible media concept and its potential advantages over state-of-the-art latent heat systems. Media stability requirements, on-going materials development efforts, and planned TES performance evaluation tests are discussed.
