Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy utilization and heat storage, and in particular relates to a composite heat storage structure for improving the performance of a solid heat storage device. Background Art

[0002] In the field of energy utilization, when there is a time-space mismatch between energy supply and energy use, energy storage technology is needed. Among various energy storage technologies, heat storage technology is the most widely used technical branch. According to the different heat storage temperatures, heat storage technologies can be roughly divided into low-temperature heat storage and medium- and high-temperature heat storage. Low-temperature heat storage is mainly aimed at the fields of solar thermal utilization and building energy conservation, and usually uses phase change materials such as salt solutions, hydrated salts, paraffin, and fatty acids as heat storage media; medium- and high-temperature heat storage is widely used in solar thermal power generation, industrial waste heat utilization, nuclear power, and power grid energy storage. It mainly uses heat transfer oil, molten salt and high-temperature resistant solid materials as heat storage media. Among various medium- and high-temperature heat storage technologies, solid heat storage has many advantages such as high heat storage temperature, simple structure, and low cost. It is the most widely used heat storage technology in actual engineering. Especially in recent years, due to the increasingly serious environmental problems represented by "smog", the heat storage electric boiler technology using solid heat storage materials has become an important technical choice for "non-coal heating". In addition, due to the limitations of thermal oil and the high technical threshold of molten salt, people are also exploring the use of solids as heat storage materials for solar thermal power generation.

[0003] For a heat storage system, unit heat storage capacity is a very important indicator, which has a great impact on the compactness and economy of its structure. The factors affecting its unit heat storage capacity mainly include heat storage temperature, specific heat and density of heat storage materials, latent heat of phase change and other factors. However, this indicator reflects the comprehensive heat storage capacity of the heat storage material, which has a certain ideality and cannot fully represent the actual heat storage capacity of the heat storage structure. The actual heat storage capacity of a heat storage system also depends on the heat storage and heat release characteristics of the heat storage structure, which is related to the thermal properties of the heat storage material and the specific structure of the heat storage body. A reasonable heat storage system needs to comprehensively consider factors such as heat storage capacity and heat storage and release requirements, select heat storage materials and design heat storage structures.

[0004] For solid thermal storage technology, the thermal storage materials usually used are refractory materials of different components. Such materials have the advantages of high thermal storage temperature, low price, and easy processing and molding. However, their disadvantages are low thermal conductivity and specific heat, which makes the thermal storage system require a large space. At the same time, during the process of heat storage and heat release, the thermal storage structure will have a certain temperature distribution in space, which further reduces its thermal storage capacity. At present, solid thermal storage has the problem of small thermal storage capacity per unit volume. Therefore, how to improve the thermal storage capacity of solid thermal storage is an important technical problem that needs to be solved urgently, especially the optimization and design of thermal storage structure. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problem that the heat storage capacity per unit volume of current solid heat storage is relatively small, the purpose of the present invention is to design a composite heat storage structure that can be applied to solid heat storage.

[0011] Preferably, the heat source is high temperature air or heat transfer oil.

[0013] The present invention combines a liquid-solid phase change heat storage unit with a solid heat storage body, making full use of the advantages of the high heat storage capacity of the liquid-solid phase change heat storage unit, and adopting a packaging structure, which not only matches the heat transfer characteristics of the solid heat storage body, but also avoids many shortcomings of phase change heat storage in practical applications, significantly improving the heat storage per unit volume of the solid heat storage structure; at the same time, enhanced heat transfer measures are adopted to make the heat storage and heat release process of the composite heat storage structure smoother, thereby improving the heat storage efficiency; in addition, the composite heat storage structure can be adopted as a modular combination, which has a compact structure and a simple processing technology. The composite heat storage structure and the entire heat storage device can be flexibly designed according to different application scenarios, greatly increasing flexibility. The new composite heat storage structure of the present invention effectively improves the heat storage capacity of the solid heat storage device and can promote the application of solid heat storage in practical engineering.
