Shock absorption energy storage device

What is absorption thermal energy storage?

5. Conclusion and perspectives Absorption thermal energy storage is promising for the storage of solar energy, waste heat and etc. Due to its superior properties including high energy storage density and small heat loss during long-term storage, the absorption thermal energy storage has been extensively studied in the last few years.

What is adaptive inertial shock-absorber?

Presented adaptive inertial shock-absorber is a concept of inerter device with two phases of operation. The first one, conversion of linear movement into rotation of inertial mass and the second, exploiting stored kinetic energy of rotating outer mass into damping process, due to initiation of inverse spinning of second, inner mass.

How to increase the effectiveness of a shock absorption system?

To increase the effectiveness of the system adapting to the impact conditions, the moment of inertia of outer ring can be changed continuously (by the position of the weights control) during the entire process of shock absorption and not only at its beginning.

What is the absorption thermal storage cycle with once-through discharging?

To solve this issue, an absorption thermal storage cycle with once-through discharging is proposed. Solution is circulated from a fully charged state to a fully discharged state during the once-through absorption, resulting in large concentration and temperature glides.

Is a 3D structure suitable for a shock-energy absorber?

Their periodically patterned 3D structure results in outstanding mechanical resilience and high damping capability suitable for a shock-energy absorber; however, large-scalable and cost-effective fabrication methods are still lacking owing to their complex and serial processes.

What is an integrated absorption thermal storage system?

Integrated absorption thermal storage system with internal compressor and working pairs . The pair is stable at a temperature up to 160 °C, but it requires rectification. The viscosity is very high and the absorbate may decompose at 110 °C, but with the three steps an energy density of 180 kWh/kg could be achieved.
