3 FAQs about [Andorra thermocline storage system]

Is thermocline a good thermal power storage system?

Thermocline is considered as a favorable solution for thermal power storage system that achieves cost reduction for concentrated solar power (CSP) plants. However, Thermocline uses a large quantity of material, often molten salts, in one or two huge tanks several tens of meters high and in diameter.

Is thermocline storage a good solution?

Thermocline storage on a solid bed is a promising solution but requires an adequate choice of the solid material used. In this literature review, it was found that vegetable oils have the same orders of magnitude in terms of thermal properties but their thermal stabilities allow them to be differentiated.

Can TRNSYS simulate a thermocline tank?
