  1. 26. An Investigation of Stainless Steels for Long-term Use in Liquid Sodium at up to 700°C

    University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

    Author : Clara Bubenko; Karl Magnil; Melker Olofsson; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : The Swedish company Azelio has developed a high-efficient Stirling engine which is powered by solar energy. Since the access of solar power is limited to day-time, Azelio has also developed their own Thermal Energy Storage (TES), which collects and stores solar energy and thereby provides the engine with energy also during night-time.

  3. 27. Thermal Energy Storage System Construction

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Adam Ranjith; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In the framework of 2020 PUPM HEAT project three different types of thermal energy storage (TES) systems are being constructed and analyzed at a demonstration site set up at the power plant IREN in Moncalieri, Italy. KTH will assist this project by setting up a validation rig where three TES systems in smaller dimensions will be constructed and analyzed for its performance, to use as guideline for the demonstration site rig.

  4. 28. Investigation of potentials in thermal energy storage for space heating applications in Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Emma Humire; Ghazal Faramarzi; [2018]
    Keywords : thermal energy storage; heat pump; energy efficiency; värmelagring; värmepump; energieffektivitet;

    Abstract : The aim of this study was to investigate the economic and energy-efficiency potentials for configuring thermal energy storage (TES) units in Swedish residential buildings. Consequently, the goal was to carry out economical and energy calculations over two applications of coupling two different types of heat pumps with a TES unit (water tank) for providing space heating in a detached single-family house in Stockholm, Sweden during winter time.
