The purpose of the buffer is described in a working situation
A heat storage unit should be considered in a meaningful way if the situation in which heat production and heat use differ is known. The source may be available during a given period, while the cultivation house may otherwise require heat. In other investments, the aim is to make the heat producer operate more uniformly or to divide between several consumers. These are not the same tasks. The investor first describes when heat can be used, what temperature it comes in and when the internal system waits for performance. The tank is only then assigned to the operating concept.
Result not taken alone
Two containers of the same size do not necessarily perform the same function. The heat that can be used is related to the temperature in which the system is working, how it fills and empts the container and how it is connected to the consumer. The offer therefore requires a description of the volume. The chosen solution is worth checking with the chronological order of a typical day: where the heat comes from, when the storage state changes, and which consumer serves its needs. The nominal capacity data sheet does not replace this specific time comparison.
The construction site and system connection are also a task
The location of the container affects the foundation, approach, mounting and mechanical connections. The investment programme should specify how the equipment arrives at the plant, where the working space for the increase is available and how the control points can be reached during operation. The trail between the heat centre and the storage facility shall be aligned with existing utilities as with any other industrial pipewater systems. The control responsibility shall not remain an empty area between two suppliers: be able to identify who connects the storage status to the requirements of the heat producer and the production house.
What happens when different loads or stops occur?
The buffer does not constitute an unlimited reserve available for a period of time. The expected operation shall be assessed on the basis of the actual source, internal load and start-up status. It is worth revising separately the part load, temporary shutdown and storage maintenance. If the cultivation house consists of several zones, it should be clear which needs are priority over limited heat supply. During the transfer test, the operator must understand not only the location of the instruments but also the status changes of the system. Energy integrated negotiator Dalsem and WUR In addition to resources, a description of the local operation provides the actual basis for the decision.
Investment variant controlled by time schedule
A good demonstration of the buffer may be a day when the heat source and the growing house are burdened at different times. The common working basis may indicate the start-up status of the storage, the time of charging and the appearance of consumers. If the source is missed due to an unexpected event, it can be followed through the same page, which assumption changes. This will not be scaling, but it will soon be visible, which data is missing for design. The discussion is therefore about the desired operation and not the subsequent justification for a pre-selected container size.
Questions to reconcile the project
- What difference between heat production and consumption periods is bridged by the storage unit?
- What conditions and system boundaries do you interpret storage capacity?
- Who is responsible for the common regulation of storage, heat sources and production zones?
