Testing of High Thermal Cycling Stability of Low Strength Concrete as a Thermal Energy Storage Material

Concrete has the potential to become a solution for thermal energy storage (TES) integrated in concentrating solar power (CSP) systems due to its good thermal and mechanical properties and low cost of material. In this study, a low strength concrete (C20) is tested at high temperatures up to 600 °C....
