On February 27, in NoyanTapan News Agency press center held the next discussion of the Inventors Club of the Fund for the Advancement of Science, innovation and perspective development NoyanTapan.
During that discussion Samvel Tadevosyan, Ph.D. in Technology, the head of Electronstandart CJSC introduced new thermal energy accumulators, their effectiveness and possible application areas.
As S. Tadevosyan mentioned, they designed and created solar thermal energy accumulators (STEA). According to him, development processes of synthesis multi-glassy, composites and amorphous compounds with desired thermo physical characteristics, with aim to subsequent implementation of their special packaging consisting unified design high heat capacity of thermal energetic element- solar thermal energy accumulators.
Speaking about the application areas of thermal energy accumulators, S. Tadevosian mentioned "Solar heat treatable installation”, "Storage of solar thermal energy" and "A new type of solar power" projects , where that accumulators can be used.
Speaking about "Solar heat treatable installation" S. Tadevosyan mentioned, that solar systems (mobile or stationary, household and technological purposes), on the basis of small, functionally differentiated and time-inertial STEA as alternative sources of heat energy can be used in conjunction with other heat sources (gas , electricity, etc.) or separately anywhere where there is no possibility to use other types of energy sources, or they are expensive.
Touching upon the "Storage of solar thermal energy" the inventor said, that storage of solar heat underground or above modular design, based on solar power plants and STEA with capacity of up to 100 kW (and more) - as an alternative source of thermal energy can be used in heating systems of buildings, greenhouses, industrial buildings, etc.
The next project, about which the inventor spoke is "A new type of solar power". According to him solar power plant based on the modular design of solar installations and STEA operated using hot air streams. The goal is to bring the efficiency of the solar station to the value of 30%.
At the end of his speech S. Tadevosian mentioned that the work now is on the synthesis of various compounds for the STEA. The main directions of development and collaboration are identified.
The speech was followed by questions and answers in which participated not only the members of Inventors Club, but also the representatives of mass media who came to cover the event.
