The Performance of Thermal Storage Tank in Solar Energy System

Abstract:

Solar energy is the main source of all energy on earth. The earth obtains the total energy annually is ten thousand times of the earth energy consumption at present, but the solar energy has a lower energy density on the earth's surface. If we want to use the solar energy, it is necessary to solve the intermittent and reliability problems of solar energy. Setting the storage device is one of the most effective methods to solve the above problem. The research and development of new energy sources and energy saving are two key ways to solve the potential global energy shortage. Solar assisted heat pump system has a wide and wonderful future for its excellent performance in energy saving and environment protection. This paper discusses the technology of thermal storage in solar energy system and introduces thermal storage .The experiment was done in Qingdao climates. Presents the laws of the thermal storage tank and the average heat output is 11.63 KWh in 8:0016:00.
