NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF A STRATIFIED THERMAL STORAGE SYSTEM, EFFECT OF THE REYNOLDS NUMBER ON THE THICKNESS OF THE THERMOCLINE ZONE
Overview & Synopsis
Numerical simulations are carried out on a thermocline thermal storage system with thermal oil as the storing medium. The main objective was to study the effect of the Reynolds number on the thermocline zone thickness during the charging period. Results show that Reynolds number has a significant influence on the thermocline thickness and the thermocline zone near the wall is slightly affected by increasing the Reynolds number. The findings shows also that the temperature of the fluid varies significantly in the axial direction as compared to the radial direction
