Barnes & Noble Thermal Energy Storage Technologies for Sustainability: Systems Design, Assessment and Applications at Hamilton Place in Chattanooga, TN
Thermal Energy Storage Technologies for Sustainability is a broad-based overview describing the state-of-the-art in latent, sensible, and thermo-chemical energy storage systems and their applications across industries. Beginning with a discussion of the efficiency and conservation advantages of balancing energy demand with production, the book goes on to describe current state-of-the art technologies. Not stopping with description, the authors also discuss design, modeling, and simulation of representative systems, and end with several case studies of systems in use.- Describes how thermal energy storage helps bridge the gap between energy demand and supply, particularly for intermittent power sources like solar, wind, and tidal systems- Provides tables, illustrations, and comparative case studies that show applications of TES systems across industries- Includes a chapter on the rapidly developing field of viable nanotechnology-based thermal energy storage systems
