Large commercial and institutional buildings face significant challenges in maintaining thermal comfort while minimizing ...

Bill Davis, P.E., Midwesco project manager, noted, "Thermal storage allowed us to eliminate two 25-ton chillers and reduce maintenance costs by $4,000 per year while maintaining the cooling redundancy ...

Parallel research on full-scale chilled water storage tanks has employed both three-dimensional and two-dimensional numerical models to elucidate flow characteristics and to establish optimal ...

The fully-insulated, porcelain-coated, steel tanks are ideal for chilled, hot water, or potable water applications (anode rod required, separately sourced). Maximizing the efficiency of hydronic ...

Pilot tests of an aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) system are underway by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Thermal Systems ...

A research group from Ireland developed a PVT system consisting of a 170 W photovoltaic panel connected to a water tank placed at the backside of the PV module itself. The PVT module is able to ...

While the most common form of thermal energy uses large tanks of hot or cold water, there are other types of so-called sensible heat storage, such as using sand or rocks to store thermal energy.

Ice thermal storage is becoming a ‘hot ticket’ in the district cooling market, although it is also finds application in other water-cooled applications of a smaller scale. “IMEC is developing ice ...
