Abstract: Efficient, large-scale, and cost-effective energy storage systems provide a means of managing the inherent intermittency of renewable energy sources and drastically increasing their utilization. Compressed air energy storage ...

Abstract: Wildfires have become a persistent and growing global risk, causing increasing financial, human, and environmental damage. By all accounts and predictions, they will continue to rise in frequency and intensity throughout ...

Abstract: The desire to increase power production through renewable sources introduces a number of problems due to their inherent intermittency. One solution is to incorporate energy storage systems as a means of managing the ...

Abstract: In this study, turbulent natural convection heat transfer during the charge cycle of an isochoric vertically oriented thermal energy storage (TES) tube is studied computationally and analytically. The storage fluids ...
