Abstract

The invention relates to a device for storing heat, comprising a heat storage medium, which for storing heat takes up heat and for using the stored heat gives off heat, and a tank for receiving the heat storage medium, wherein the tank is closed by a gas-tight covering, and means for volume equalization are comprised, in order to equalize an increase in volume of the heat storage medium (3) as a result of an increase in temperature and a decrease in volume as a result of a decrease in temperature. The invention also relates to a method for storing heat, in which, for storing heat, heat is transferred to a heat storage medium or, for using heat, heat is removed from the heat storage medium and passed to the heat transfer medium, wherein the heat storage medium is held in a tank, which is closed by a gas-tight covering, wherein an expansion of the volume of the heat storage medium (3) is equalized by an increase in the volume of the tank (1), or by heat storage medium (3) flowing out of the tank (1) into a buffer tank (21; 63, 65), and a decrease in the volume of the heat storage medium (3) is equalized by a reduction in the volume of the tank (1) or by heat storage medium (3) flowing out of the buffer tank (21; 63, 65) into the tank (1).

Claims (11)

1. A device for storing heat, comprising a heat storage medium which absorbs heat in order to store heat and releases heat in order to use the stored heat, and a container for holding the heat storage medium, the container being closed by a gastight cover, wherein the device comprises volume compensation means in order to compensate for a volume increase of the heat storage medium (3) due to a temperature rise and a volume decrease due to a temperature reduction.
2. The device according to claim 1, wherein the volume compensation means comprise a flexible cover (5) of the container (1).
3. The device according to claim 2, wherein the flexible cover (5) comprises flexible regions (7), which are raised when there is a volume increase of the heat storage medium (3) and which are lowered when there is a volume decrease of the heat storage medium (3).
4. The device according to one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the volume compensation means comprise a buffer container (21; 63, 67), into which a part of the heat storage medium (3) can flow when there is a volume increase of the heat storage medium (3).
5. The device according to one of claims 1 to 4, wherein the heat storage device is formed as a stratified storage tank (47).
6. The device according to one of claims 1 to 5, wherein the heat storage medium (3) contains sulfur.
7. A method for storing heat, in which heat is transferred to a heat storage medium in order to store heat or heat is discharged from the heat storage medium to the heat carrier in order to use the heat, the heat storage medium being held in a container which is closed by a gastight cover, wherein a volume expansion of the heat storage medium (3) is compensated for by a volume increase of the container (1) or by heat storage medium (3) flowing out of the container (1) into a buffer container (21; 63, 65), and a volume decrease of the heat storage medium (3) is compensated for by a volume decrease of the container (1) or by heat storage medium (3) flowing out of the buffer container (21;
63, 65) into the container (1).
8. The method according to claim 7, wherein a volume increase of the container (1) is achieved by flexible regions (7) of a flexible cover (5) expanding.
9. The method according to claim 7 or 8, wherein hot heat storage medium (3) is delivered to the container (1) in the upper region and cold heat storage medium (3) is taken from it in the lower region.
10. The method according to one of claims 7 to 9, wherein heat from a solar power station is delivered to the heat storage medium (3).
11. The method according to claim 10, wherein the solar power station is a parabolic trough solar power station.
