Author:Klein, Peter; Roos, T; Sheer, JDate:Jan 2014The development of high temperature thermal storage systems is required to increase the solar share of solar-hybrid gas turbine cycles. This paper proposes a pressurised packed bed of Encapsulated Phase Change Materials (EPCM) as a thermal ...Read more
Author:Roos, TH; Harms, TMDate:Jun 2014In the popular Discrete Ordinates Method (DOM) formulation of the Equation of Radiative Transfer (ERT), the 4 pi solid angle range of directions is divided into a finite number of discrete directions or ordinates. This requires that the ...Read more
Author:Klein, Peter; Roos, TH; Sheer, TJDate:Aug 2015The development of a high temperature Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system will allow for high solar shares in Solar Gas Turbine (SGT) plants. In this research a pressurised storage solution is proposed that utilises a packed bed of alumina ...Read more
