A practical guide on how to plan, design, and construct sustainable thermal storage systems"Sustainable Thermal Storage Systems: Planning, Design, and Operations"Defines sustainable thermal storageDiscusses the types of facilities that can benefit from thermal storageOutlines the various types of thermal storage systems availablePresents the key requirements in thermal storage planning Includes thermal storage system sizing examplesContains performance metricsExplains how to conduct a feasibility studyFeatures case studies that demonstrate real-world applicationsUse of thermal storage--also called thermal energy storage (TES)--can result in: reduced on-peak electric demand; reduced energy costs; smaller required chiller capacity to meet peak cooling demand; lower capital costs; lower life cycle costs; improved operational flexibility; less air pollution. This book covers all of these aspects.Complete coverage:
Overview; Applicability of Thermal Storage Systems; Types of Thermal Storage Systems; Sensible Thermal Storage Systems; Latent Thermal Storage Systems; Heat Storage Systems; Thermal Storage Sizing; Conducting a Feasibility Study; Thermal Storage System Design Applications; Control Strategies and Requirements; Thermal Storage Specifications and Construction Process; Commissioning; Operations and Optimization; Case Study: Chilled Water Storage at Linda University; Case Study: Ice Storage System
