Latent heat accumulator
Patent
·
OSTI ID:6209766
A latent heat accumulator is disclosed including a vessel for receiving a latent heat storage medium and a circuit for a heat exchanger medium. The heat exchanger medium is immiscible with the latent heat storage medium, has a different density than the heat storage medium and is openly conveyed through the heat storage medium. The vessel contains a collecting chamber for the heat exchanger medium and has a heat exchanger arranged therein. An external heat carrier medium flows through the heat exchanger for transfer of heat between the heat carrier medium and the heat exchange medium. The accumulator is characterized in that a first heat carrier medium for adding heat and a second heat carrier medium for withdrawing heat are conveyed in the heat exchanger in separate conduit systems which are in heat-conductive contact with each other and with the surrounding heat exchanger medium.
