Absorbed heat from solar radiations by collectors, would transform to the water tank (directly or indirectly), and increase water’s temperature without causing any phase changing. Table 3. Comparison between water and other organic solid–liquid PCMs.
Water-based thermal storage mediums discussed in this paper includes water tanks and natural underground storages; they can be divided into two major categories, based on temperature range and the state of water: sensible heat storage and latent heat storage. 2.1.1.
Thus the energy balance of the DHW storage tank can be written in the following way: There is no inlet of cold water to the DHW storage but only outlet for direct use. Some cold water is provided to the three-way valve out of the storage tank to protect the user against too high water temperature from the DHW system.
Natural solar water-based thermal storage systems While water tanks comprise a large portion of solar storage systems, the heat storage can also take place in non-artificial structures. Most of these natural storage containers are located underground. 4.1. Aquifer thermal energy storage system
Aside from thermal applications of water-based storages, such systems can also take advantage of its mechanical energy in the form of pumped storage systems which are vastly use for bulk energy storage applications and can be used both as integrated with power grid or standalone and remote communities.
The most frequent daily usage is the domestic hot water storage, mostly by electric or gas heaters. Other applications include: Water heat storage tank. Heat storage in building components (façade, walls, etc.). Underground heat storage (uses the ground as the storage medium). Aquifer heat storage (uses aquifer water as the storage medium).
