Clean energy storage such as solar and wind energy has been one of the hottest topics in future energy.
Over the total reaction, the average entropy production due to the heat transfer is about 7.4 times higher than the mass transfer one, and about 3 times higher than the kinetic entropy production. This analysis confirms that the heat transfer is definitively the main limitation of reaction in such a reactive bed of a closed system. 4.3.2.
Thermal energy storage materials 1, 2 in combination with a Carnot battery 3, 4, 5 could revolutionize the energy storage sector. However, a lack of stable, inexpensive and energy-dense thermal energy storage materials impedes the advancement of this technology.
Nevertheless, the open system is disadvantaged compared with the closed system when the reactor energy density increases. Finally, the average specific power of both operating modes is higher than the target value (i.e. 0.3–0.7 W/kg) for a reactor energy density lower than 410 kWh/m3.
In a closed thermochemical system, the salt reacts with pure water vapor at vacuum pressure, while in an open system, the reactive solid bed is crossed by a moist air flow at atmospheric pressure. Many thermochemical systems operate with pure vapor , , , , .
This study shown that for the chosen set of parameters, the two operating modes lead to close global performances. For the reference parameters, the average specific power is lower for the closed system than the open reactor (respectively of 0.96 and 1.13 W/kg).
