MEDIUM VOLTAGE MOLTEN SALT HEATER AND MOLTEN SALT THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM INCLUDING SAME

摘要

A molten salt includes a number of electrodes, which are energized to medium voltage (MV) voltage levels, submerged in the molten salt. The heater can be used in a thermal energy storage (TES) system to heat molten salt being transported from the "cold" tank of the TES system to the "hot" tank.
