Thermal Energy Storage in Porous Media: Design and Applications introduces new design concepts and operation strategies for the core part of heat and mass transfer in thermal energy storage tanks. With a strong focus on design, operation, and optimization, the book presents the latest advances in thermal energy storage. Opening with an introduction to latent heat thermal storage, the book then discusses porous media-enhanced thermal storage classifications, methods, and characterizations. Subsequent topics include energy charging/discharging system design, numerical simulation models and verification, and an analysis of various melting/solidification laws. Finishing with a detailed presentation of applications and packed with case studies and real-world examples throughout, this book is an essential read for graduate students, researchers, and engineers interested in thermal engineering, energy systems, and renewable energy.
- Presents the emerging design concept of using porous media, such as metal foam, for heat transfer enhancement
- Details mechanisms and processes for the process of transient phenomenon of thermal energy storage/release in porous media
- Describes comparable analysis and modeling methods for the transient problem, including the volume averaged method and the pore-scale reconstruction approach
- Provides the key to utilizing renewable energy through balancing the mismatch of space and time for energy supply and demand
- Harnesses renewable energy through thermal energy storage to advance clean, sustainable, and affordable solutions in alignment with UN SDGs
