dc.description.abstract | The thermal performance of a Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system suitable for solar thermal applications has been tested and analysed. The experimental set-up consisted of a TES tank, thermo couples,pico data logger , thermia B oil was used as both the heat storage material and heat transfer fluid. The TES tank was built using mild steel material of dimensions i.e internal
diameter of 10cm and height of 40cm thermocouples temperature sensors were arranged inside the tank to measure the temperature profile during charging a 1.5KW heater was purchased and used and refined thamia B cooked and its temperature studied Data logger interface with the computer were connected to the temperature sensors the data logger configured to measure temperature in every one minute the experiment. | en_US |
