Influence of alternating electric current on the process of heat accumulation in a mixture of Na2SO4·10H2O–Na2S2O3·5H2O

| Summary: | One of the most critical tasks of modern energy is accumulating thermal energy due to the inefficient use of thermal energy during the underloading of power systems in which heat-accumulating materials are used. Therefore the paper studies the effect of alternating electric current on the heat-accumulating properties in a mixture based on Na2SO4·10H2O. It is established that the AC effect leads to an increase in the melt crystallization temperature of Na2SO4·10H2O and Na2S2O3·5H2O and also contributes to the return of heat. The selection of the treatment mode of the Na2SO4·10H2O–Na2S2O3·5H2O (50: 1 wt.) mixture by the AC was carried out. It was shown that the latent heat of melting of 329 kJ/kg is achieved at 500000 Hz frequency. |
