    摘要: A thermal energy storage device (100) is provided. The thermal energy storage device comprises a chamber (101) including storage material (102), which is configured to store thermal energy, and two or more ports (103, 104) configured to pass a flow (105) of heat transfer medium. The storage material is configured to exchange thermal energy with the heat transfer medium. The thermal energy storage device further comprises a cage structure (106) comprising one or more cages (107) that provide a boundary (110) between one of the ports and at least part of the storage material, wherein the cage structure comprises a filling material (108). Further, the cage structure is configured to be passable by the heat transfer medium.

    摘要: A thermal energy storage (100) for a thermal energy storage plant comprising a hollow housing (110) a granular material (120) for storing heat housed in the hollow housing (110). At least a storage grate (20) retains the granular material (120) inside the hollow housing (110), the storage grate (20) extending between a first end (11) and a second end (12), the first end (11) being closer to the bottom side (114) than to the top side (113), the storage grate (20) including at least a first grate section (20a) including the first end (11) and a second grate section (20b) including the second end (12), each grate section (20a, 20b) of the storage grate (20) comprises at least a first plurality of struts (51, 41, 42), the struts (51, 41, 42) being configured and arranged in each grate section (20a, 20b) in such a way that the mechanical strength of the first grate section (20a) is higher than the mechanical strength of the second grate section (20b).
