This paper presents the results of a numerical study on the thermal performance of large horizontal thermal energy storage tanks. The numerical model
In this paper, a special attention has been paid to the sensitive energy storage of domestic hot water stored in a horizontal tank where heat pipes are integrated. Indeed, the thermal performance of a 300 liters capacity horizontal tank that initially stores hot water and which is subjected to a charging/discharging cycle was assessed through a
In order to enhance the performance of a large horizontal thermal energy storage, a numerical model was generated and validated using measurements obtained from Drake
Duro Felguera Energy Storage designs, supplies and constructs the complete range of vertical storage tanks existing on the market, and can adapt the designs to the required capacities and the specifications of the product to be stored. We usually supply this type of products according to API 650, 620, EN 14015, AWWA and other specifications
The test tank initially contains a body of water with a stable stratification with hot top layers and cold bottom layers separated by a steep thermocline region. The inflow water is at the same temperature as that in the bottom of the tank. In Fig. 2, Fig. 3 it can be seen that the mixing is confined to the bottom of the tank and the shape of the
The new water tank structure comprises a horizontal multi-slot design featuring a central flow equalizing plate. It encompasses three equalizing plate structures: uniform shunt, side shunt, and middle shunt. This study integrates these structures into the water storage tank performance research experimental system.

In addition to sensible heat storage [4], [5] and thermochemical energy storage [6], [7], phase change energy storage includes latent heat storage [8], [9], [10]. Latent thermal energy storage is increasingly being used in a variety of fields due to its compact size, high heat storage density, and outstanding heat recovery efficiency [11] .
The current article describes a model developed to simulate the performance of a horizontal storage tank filled with commercially available, slab-like,
Considering the delayed thermal response rate exhibited by a horizontal spiral shell-tube heat storage tank during the heat storage process, we introduce an
The integration position of PCM affects the tank''s thermal energy storage capacity. • Vertical elliptic configuration located at the middle enhances the PCM''s melting rate. • PCM''s integration in the tank causes water flow blockage at inlet and outlet nozzles.
The invention discloses an elastic membrane type horizontal energy storage tank, comprising a tank body; a hot cavity outlet and a cold cavity outlet are formed in two ends of the tank body, respectively; a partition component is arranged in the middle of the tank

In the present paper, a two dimensional axisymmetric Finite Element Method (FEM) is developed to carry out a thermo-mechanical analysis on a horizontal storage tank intended to storage hot water for a domestic application.
The economic results show that implementing horizontal thermal energy storage tank has a lot of promise, with cost savings of up to 900000 dollars per year and a payback period of less than one year.
