I have a solar field. and I have a system.
I want my system to work in a steady state condition, but the nature and the base of solar energy is intermittent.
How can I use solar energy as a non-intermittent source? What system do I need between my solar collector and my system?
For instance, consider the following example: Solar field+ORC cycle 1 kW electricity is needed in a steady state way, but solar energy is not steady-state. What system is required between the solar field and the ORC cycle?
*I know that I should use a TES, but which one is good for this purpose?
For the time being, there is only one possible solution, which is the use of batteries to storgae th energy generated and not used. However, the problem that you have to face is that the batteries that can be used during a limited period only and this period is not enough for large scale supply of energy.
Dear Steffen Schmid , I agree with İbrahim Halil Yılmaz , and additionally, you could use a thermal accumulator, which stores enough energy during the day and then its thermal energy could be released during nights/cloudy days.
Regards.
Thanks all,
Which research paper do you recommend for the thermodynamic simulation of such systems?
