摘要: Thermal energy storage (TES) systems are central elements for various types of new power plant concepts, whereat packed beds represent a promising inventory option. Due to thermal expansion and shrinking the bed’s particles during cyclic charging discharging operation, high technical risks arise, possibly lead material failure. In order accurately design heat system, suitable tools calculating induced forces stresses mandatory. Continuum models offer time efficient simulation results, but in need effective bed parameters. This paper introduces methodology applying simplified continuum model presents first results an exemplarily large-scale application.
