The Absorption Process for Storage of Low-Temperature Heat

  • Conference paper
Thermal Storage of Solar Energy

Abstract

The absorption principle is presented and illustrated by a description of an advanced Swedish chemical heat pump project for seasonal storage of solar thermal energy. A short overview of the usable working pairs and heat reservoirs is given. In addition, the economic feasibility of some applications of thermochemical energy stores is briefly discussed.
