"Thermal performance analysis of the sorption heat storage system with " by Peiyu Hu, Shugang Wang et al.
For a thermochemical energy storage (TCES) system, the fluid flow, heat and mass transfer, and reaction kinetics in packed bed reactors are closely related to the packing structure, which is crucial for charging/discharging performance. This study presented a spatially resolved 2D model to investigate the effects of packing structure on the discharge process in a packed bed reactor of a TCES system. Good agreement between the numerical results of the developed 2D model and experimental measurements was observed regarding the temperature profile and breakthrough curve. The proposed model effect...
