摘要: An energy storage system converts variable renewable electricity (VRE) to continuous heat at over 1000° C. Intermittent electrical energy heats a solid medium. Heat from the solid medium is delivered continuously on demand. An array of bricks incorporating internal radiation cavities is directly heated by thermal radiation. The cavities facilitate rapid, uniform heating via reradiation. Heat delivery via flowing gas establishes a thermocline which maintains high outlet temperature throughout discharge. Gas flows through structured pathways within the array, delivering heat which may be used for processes including calcination, hydrogen electrolysis, steam generation, and thermal power generation and cogeneration. Groups of thermal storage arrays may be controlled and operated at high temperatures without thermal runaway via deep-discharge sequencing. Forecast-based control enables continuous, year-round heat supply using current and advance information of weather and VRE availability. High-voltage DC power conversion and distribution circuitry improves the efficiency of VRE power transfer into the system.

摘要: A method of energy storage comprises receiving input energy (1) and using the input energy to compress (2) air or other process gas to produce a compressed process gas. The compressed process gas is stored (8). The compressed process gas is expanded (16) to generate output energy (17). Heat is transferred (5) from the process gas, before the process gas is stored (8) as a compressed process gas, to a hydrogen production process (10). The transferred heat is used in the hydrogen production process (10). The hydrogen may be stored (13) and subsequently used to heat to provide heat prior to, during, or after expanding (16) the compressed gas.

摘要: A floating heat pump system including a superstructure supporting a wind turbine and at least one electric generator mechanically connected to the wind turbine. Wind-induced rotation of the wind turbine causes the electric generator to generate electricity. The generated electricity may be supplied to a power grid, or a portion of the generated electricity may be used to power a heat pump also supported at least in part by the superstructure to extract heat from the ocean or another large body of water. The heat may be stored in transportable thermal storage medium. Heat stored in the thermal storage media may be used at the system or remotely for regional or district heating and cooling, industrial purposes, or to generate electricity.

摘要: The induction heating device that heats a heating medium includes a rotor having a rotation shaft, a heating part disposed to be opposed to the rotor at a distance, a magnetic flux generating part provided at the rotor to generate magnetic flux for the heating part, and a flow passage provided along the heating part to allow the heating medium to circulate. The flow passage has an inlet to supply the heating medium on one side in a direction along the heating part and an outlet to discharge the heating medium on the other side. The distance between the magnetic flux generating part and the heating part is larger on the outlet side than on the inlet side of the flow passage.

摘要: An induction heating device includes: a rotor having a rotation shaft; a heating part disposed to be opposed to the rotor at a distance; a magnetic flux generating part provided at the rotor to generate magnetic flux for the heating part; a magnetic flux guide part provided on an opposed surface side of the heating part that is opposed to the magnetic flux generating part to guide the magnetic flux from the magnetic flux generating part to the heating part; and a flow passage provided in the heating part to allow a heating medium to circulate. The magnetic flux guide part includes magnetic substance parts. The magnetic flux guide part has a structure in which the magnetic substance parts and the insulator parts extend along a direction from the magnetic flux generating part to the heating part and are alternately layered along a circumferential direction of the heating part.

摘要: A thermal storage subsystem may include at least a first storage reservoir configured to contain a thermal storage liquid at a storage pressure that is greater than atmospheric pressure. A liquid passage may have an inlet connectable to a thermal storage liquid source and configured to convey the thermal storage liquid to the liquid reservoir. A first heat exchanger may be provided in the liquid inlet passage and may be in fluid communication between the first compression stage and the accumulator, whereby thermal energy can be transferred from a compressed gas stream exiting a gas compressor/expander subsystem to the thermal storage liquid.
