Steam Accumulators
A steam accumulator is an insulated steel pressure tank containing hot water and steam under pressure. It is a type of energy storage device. It can be used to smooth out peaks and troughs in demand for steam. Steam accumulators may take on a significance for energy storage in solar thermal energy projects. An example is the PS10 solar power plant near Seville, Spain and one planned for t

6 FAQs about [Steam storage tank model]
What is a steam accumulator storage tank?
The storage tank of a steam accumulator must be able to withstand the pressure of the water, including hydrostatic pressure. The storage tank accounts for the larg-est portion of the capital cost of a steam storage tank. One focus of the design is to minimize the mass of the storage tank for safe operation.
What is a dry steam storage tank?
According to [Goldstern1963], dry steam storage tanks with volumes up to 3000 m 3 have been built for maximum steam pressures of 1.2 bar. To avoid the pressure drop during discharge, the bell accumulator with variable storage volume was developed. Similar to a gasometer used to store low-pressure natural gas, the bell floats on a water reservoir.
How does a steam storage tank work?
It is charged by the supply of (superheated) steam, which is provided, for example, by a turbine tap or a steam generator. The steam condenses when it is introduced into the storage tank, resulting in an increase in pressure, in (saturated steam) temperature and in water level in the tank.
Does steam storage meet peak load demands?
A complete overview of the need for steam storage to meet peak load demands in specific industries, including the design, construction and operation of a steam accumulator, with calculations.
How much steam can be stored in a dry storage tank?
For low steam pressures, there is the possibility of direct storage of superheated steam, but the low storage density of steam requires large volumes. According to [Goldstern1963], dry steam storage tanks with volumes up to 3000 m 3 have been built for maximum steam pressures of 1.2 bar.
How do you estimate the storage capacity of a steam accumulator?
To quickly estimate the storage capacity of a steam accumulator, it is useful to use approximations that do not require the use of steam tables or step-by-step computational procedures. For an estimation, the steam accumulator is assumed to be a volume of water with constant thermophysical properties that undergoes a temperature change.
