Comparison of oil and aluminum-based heat storage charged with a small-scale solar parabolic trough

Solar Thermal Energy Storage for Solar Cookers

“…An experimental comparison of different storage materials for a small parabolic trough solar cooker was done recently by Mussard and Nydal (2013a). Although the storage tanks stored PCM during the phase change period, the storage tanks also stored sensible heat before the phase change process.…”

Isı Transferi Akışkanı Olarak Eriyik Tuz Kullanılan Bir Gövde Boru Tipi Isı Değiştiricisinin Hesaplamalı Akışkanlar Dinamiği Programı ile Analizi

“…Birçok farklı çalışma akışkanı YGS sistemlerinde kullanılmaktadır [2][3][4]. Uygun ısı transfer akışkanı ve ısı depolama sistemlerini seçmek YGS teknolojisinin gelecekteki başarısı için anahtar rol oynamaktadır.…”

Performance assessment of a solar domestic cooking unit integrated with thermal energy storage system

“…However, the success of solar cooking in household applications is possible only if the energy for cooking is made available even during non-sunshine hours. Therefore, solar cookers require energy storage to provide energy during the night and overcast periods [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. The collective information on solar cookers with energy storage system has been presented [20,21].…”
