A 300 [L] cylindrical storage tank, depicted in Fig. 2, is used to provide thermal energy for both the space heating water loop (SHW) and to preheat domestic hot water (DHW). The space heating water inlet is located at the bottom of the tank whereas the outlet is located at the top.
The stratified thermal energy storage (TES) tank is a widely proven technology that stores the thermal energy produced during off-peak periods of electrical load and then releases and distributes it to the facility during peak periods. The diffuser is the core component of stratified TES tanks. Its function is to introduce cold water and
1. Introduction1.1. Context. For intermittent renewable energy sources such as solar, storage is frequently an essential element of the system to overcome the non-simultaneity between production and consumption [1].Thermal storage tanks are typically used in solar domestic hot water production to manage the day/night variability.

Thermal energy storage (TES) stores energy in the form of heat whereas for example electro-chemical batteries store electricity. High- and medium-temperature
During the operation of the thermal storage tank, due to the influence of inlet flow and the thermal stratification phenomenon of the thermal storage fluid, there are temperature differences at different positions inside the tank. As shown in Fig. 5 (b), 10 measuring points at different heights were installed on the axis of the thermal storage tank in this
Thermal energy storage (TES) is a technology that stocks thermal energy by heating or cooling a storage medium so that the stored energy can be used at a later time for heating and cooling applications and power
Tank Thermal Energy Storage (TTES) stores sensible heat in a medium, such as water, within a tank structure which is well insulated to minimise heat losses [30].

The different kinds of thermal energy storage can be divided into three separate categories: sensible heat, latent heat, and thermo-chemical heat storage. Each of these has different advantages and disadvantages that determine their applications. Sensible heat storage (SHS) is the most straightforward method. It simply means the temperature of some medium is either increased or decreased. This type of storage is the most commerciall

2.1 Sensible-Thermal Storage. Sensible storage of thermal energy requires a perceptible change in temperature. A storage medium is heated or cooled. The quantity of energy stored is determined by the specific thermal capacity ((c_{p})-value) of the material.Since, with sensible-energy storage systems, the temperature differences
Thermal energy storage (TES) tanks are specialized containers designed to store thermal energy in the form of chilled water. As water possesses excellent thermal transfer properties, it is an ideal medium for energy storage.
