5. Sketch and describe a few Thermal Energy Storage (TES) technologies.
2. Briefly sketch and describe carbon capture and storage technologies.
answer all i paid my money Describe the energy storage technologies (8 marks) A hydropower storage system to provide 2GWe of dispatchable power for twelve hours is to be built between two reservoirs with a difference in elevation of one mile. Determine the minimum volume of water assuming a margin of safety of 50% and an average water depth of twenty feet in each reservoir. State all assumptions made. (4 marks)
5. Sketch the energy band diagram for a p'-n step junction diode at: (a) thermal equilibrium; (b) forward bias (show with respect to thermal equilibrium) (c) reverse bias (show with respect to thermal equilibrium) (d) in part (a) sketch a new diagram showing the carrier flux and the four current components with respect to each other.
List at least 3 advantages of thermal energy storage ? write the answer on computer not on paper
Class activity 3 1- List at least 3 advantages of thermal energy storage 2- List at least 3 disadvantages of thermal energy storage 2. Explain clearly the principle of operation of the solar hot water system shown below
2. A thermal energy storage unit is composed of rectangular channels and is well insulated from outer surface. It encloses alternating layers and flow passages (shown using the arrows in the image below). Each layer of the storage material is an aluminum slab of width (thickness) W=0.05 m, which is at initial temperature of 25 °C. The storage unit is charged by passing a hot gas through the passages, with the gas temperature and convection coefficient assumed to have constant...
Draw a direction field using MATLAB to sketch a few of the trajectories, and describe the behavior of the solutions as t → ∞ x' = [ 1 -1 ] [ 5 -3 ] x It's a matrix, sorry its bad, so x' = [ ] *x I just do not know how to put this in Matlab, thanks
A thermal energy storage unit consists of a large rectangular channel, which is well insulated on its outer surface and encloses alternating layers of the storage material and the flow passage. Each layer of the storage material is an aluminum slab of width W = 0.05 m, which is at an initial temperature of 25°C. Consider conditions for which the storage unit is charged by passing a hot gas through the passages, with the gas temperature and the convection coefficient...

Thermal energy storage systems commonly involve a packed bed of solid spheres through which a hot gas flows when the system is being charged. In the charging process heat is transferred from the hot gas to the spheres and it increases the thermal energy stored in the spheres. Here are some variables that are important - the convection coefficient between the particle surface and the gas is h (W/m2 K) and the particle thermophysical properties are k (W/m K), Cp...
