Re: Store thermal energy with palm oil?

but is not more than 30% more expensive? : mrgreen: We are talking about lauric acid https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huile_de_palme#Composition: mrgreen: We are abusing the language by saying palm oil, it's true, we should say "lauric acid pure "or assimilate it to coconut oil ...

Re: Store thermal energy with palm oil?

We can also compare the 1 kJ to heat the house for 200 days to its equivalent in wood or fuel oil: chrome_000-7-2019_01-06-16.png Source: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/ Bois_% C28% A53nergie # Combustion_du_bois Our system therefore saves: 3kJ / (9kWh / kg * 1kJ / kW) = 200kg of ...

Re: Store thermal energy with palm oil?

I created a little excel that I join you.

I get, for a house requiring 1 200 000kJ heating, a need for:
EXCEL_2019-01-06_16-08-14.png
EXCEL_2019-01-06_16-08-14.png (7.15 KIO) Accessed 4461 times

I also took into account the density of the buffer, which we currently approximated at "1000kg / m3".


Here is the excel

Re: Store thermal energy with palm oil?

So I had another idea, why encapsulate the acid in round beads and put them in water when you can put 100% acid. The answer is that the acid will gradually crystallize around the exchanger, until it completely prevents exchanges with it. My question is don ...

Re: Store thermal energy with palm oil?

45 °, specific heat less than 2 times less than water? What makes this process different from the classic hot water tank? We use the energy released by the phase change of materials, reread these 2 pages to have more details on the method and the calculations: https: //www.econologie.c ...

Re: Store thermal energy with palm oil?

I allow myself to dig up this thread because it is extremely interesting. Reading its 37 pages is a feast, for the eyes as much as for the brain, considering the possible applications. After some calculations brought back to the tastes of the day of Doctor Maloche, I find myself with: - Energy efficient house ...
