Description
Summary:To meet energy needs in the absence of an energy source, practical energy storage devices can be combined with home and industrial systems. The thermal properties of a practical energy storage system with numerous cylindrical channels are investigated in this work experimentally during the charging and discharging cycles. By adjusting the mass flowrate of air from 0.022 to 0.031 kg/s and the input air temperature from 45 to 75 °C, the transient temperature distribution, energy storage, energy release, and charging/discharging energy efficiency are assessed. At an intake temperature of 55 °C and an air mass flowrate of 0.031 kg/s, the maximum charging energy efficiency of 81.3% was discovered. The maximum discharging energy efficiency is discovered to be 74.3%, which corresponds to an air mass flowrate of 0.031 kg/s and an inlet temperature of 45 °C.
