Constructal Open Reactors for Thermochemical Energy Storage
Abstract This work documents the study of two concepts of open reactors for thermochemical energy storage. While classical thermal storage uses sensible or latent heat to store thermal energy, thermochemical energy storage uses an endothermic / exothermic chemical reaction. The process studied is based on the hydration and dehydration of
