Advances in Thermal Energy Storage Systems: Methods and Applications, Third Edition, presents a fully updated comprehensive analysis of thermal energy storage systems (TES) including all major advances and developments since the second edition published. This very successful publication provides readers with all the information related to TES in one resource, along with a variety of applications across the energy/power and construction sectors, as well as, new to this edition, the transport industry. After an introduction to TES systems, editor Prof. Dr. Luisa F. Cabeza and her team of expert authors consider the source, design and operation of the use of water, molten salts, concrete, aquifers, boreholes and a variety of phase change materials for TES systems, before analyzing thermochemical energy storage. This edition benefits from several new chapters covering the most advanced technologies including TES using solid particles or packed bed tanks, cryogenic latent heat storage and solid-solid PCMs, advanced control systems and sector coupling and flexibility due to the integration of TES. It will benefit researchers and academics of energy systems and thermal energy storage, construction engineering academics, engineers and practitioners in the energy and power industry, as well as architects of plants and storage systems and R&D managers.
