Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of energy storage devices, in particular to a phase change energy storage device for a solar energy-ground source heat pump heating system. Background Art
[0002] Energy storage refers to the process of storing energy through a medium or device and releasing it when needed. According to the energy storage method, energy storage can be divided into three categories: physical energy storage, chemical energy storage, and electromagnetic energy storage. Physical energy storage mainly includes pumped storage, compressed air energy storage, flywheel energy storage, etc. Chemical energy storage mainly includes lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries, sodium-sulfur batteries, flow batteries, etc. Electromagnetic energy storage mainly includes supercapacitor energy storage and superconducting energy storage.
[0003] Thermal energy storage is a technology that stores various forms of energy through thermodynamic equipment. Thermal energy storage can be divided into sensible heat storage, latent heat storage and chemical reaction heat storage according to the heat storage method. Among them, latent heat storage, also known as phase change energy storage, is a technology that uses the absorption or release of latent heat of phase change during the phase change process of a substance to store and release energy. The energy storage density of latent heat storage is high, and in the process of energy storage and release, the material absorbs and releases a large amount of heat when the phase change occurs, but the temperature is approximately constant, so it is easy to manage and the installation is simple. Common latent heat storage methods include ice storage, steam storage, phase change material storage, etc. Solar energy is an ideal source of energy, and it can be directly expressed in the form of heat. Relying on the high heat capacity characteristics of phase change materials, it is expected to become the basis for large-scale energy storage equipment. In recent years, such energy storage units have been used in pilot projects in solar-ground source heat pump heating systems. However, their capture mode is generally to convert solar energy into electricity first and then into heat. Although the storage of electricity is relatively clean and will not be lost, the overall energy conversion rate is low, and its advantages are difficult to reflect in heating systems that require continuous heat supply.
