About this Event
Join the CIBSE SA Chapter and Joint Associations on a technical presentation.
In 2022 the Flinders University tasked System Solutions Engineering to degasify or electrify the Mark Oliphant Building, to delete the use of natural gas from the site. A feasibility study demonstrated that electrification was not a simple “replace a boiler with a heat pump” exercise and an alternative technology was therefore considered appropriate.
The result was utilising a thermal energy storage system [TES] and Isothermix that SSE developed in collaboration with the University of SA over the past few years (all SA organisations).
The design is a hybrid solution that allowed storage of up to 400 kWh of latent heat using Phase Change Materials (PCMs); i.e. eutectic mixtures of salt hydrates with a suitable melting/freezing temperature.
This Isothermix Thermal Battery is a static stainless steel heat exchanger immersed and surrounded by this mixture of Salt Hydrates which have been stabilised and blended to melt and freeze at specific or selected temperatures.
Join us to find out how it works.
Speakers: Presentations by both ACS, Isothermix and System Solutions Engineering.
