Sulfuric acid/water chemical heat pump
Abstract
A sulfuric acid chemical heat pump chemical energy storage, CHP/CES, verification test unit (VTU) which incorporates as many commercial, mass producible design features as necessary to demonstrate system economic and technical feasibility is designed, constructed, and tested. The VTU is designed to function both as a storage HVAC unit and a temperature enhancement industrial heat pump. For purposes of gaining scaling criteria, the nominal storage design capacity shall be 10 million Btu with a nominal delivered heat rate of 150,000 Btu/hr.
