Development of Overground Hot Water Stores in Segmental Construction for Solar and District Heating Systems within the Project OBSERW

摘要

Thermal energy stores can significantly improve the efficiency and environment-friendliness of the heat supply. Therefore, a high demand for cost-effective storage systems with low energy losses exists. This contribution deals with thermal energy stores for heat supply systems and presents a new aboveground store in segmental construction that allows temperatures up to 98 °C. The construction of a demonstrator is part of the OBSF.RW project, where researchers show the advantages of this technology, particularly regarding thermal insulation and storage efficiency.
