Definitions

  • This invention relates to thermal storage tanks, and more particularly to large-capacity tanks used in solar hot water installations.
  • Thermal storage tanks have been generally used for residential domestic hot water (DHW).
  • a particular type of hot water tank in increasing use is that forming a part of solar water heating systems.
  • solar heating can represent a significant reduction in the cost of fossil-fuel heating.
  • a collector receives radiant heat from the sun and transfers it to a water storage tank by means of a heat exchanger, thereupon to be called for as demanded.
  • the storage tank is sized to accommodate not only the heat exchanger, but also the required reservoir to hold the heat.
  • Solar water heating is one of the simplest and least expensive ways to harness renewable energy, and the potential for this technology lies far beyond DHW.
  • the low energy cost is attractive for such residential uses as space heating and pool heating.
  • Potential industrial uses include breweries, hospitals, Laundromats, and diary farms, to name a few.
  • the energy stored in water in the form of heat can even be used to provide cooling by means of thermally-driven chillers. Buildings are thereby enabled to use solar energy for heating during the winter season and cooling during the summer. When scaled for large capacity, solar could displace significant amounts of non-renewable energy sources, such as natural gas, oil, and coal-derived electricity, while generating large savings in cost and carbon credits for bonus.
  • Developments in low-pressure systems have made system components more affordable.
  • the water system in the average installation operates with a pressure which delivers the water in a service flow when a valve or tap is turned on.
  • the pressure comes from line pressure delivered to the installation, or, otherwise, from a pressurized bladder inside a storage tank.
  • some or all of the pressure can be eliminated by using an on-demand pump. This greatly simplifies a solar heating configuration, for example, wherein pressure-rated seals, fittings, and methods of joining can add appreciable cost.
  • the reduced pressure in such a system need not be more than just enough to slowly circulate water.
  • the storage, or holding, tank is not required to be a pressure vessel, and can even be open on top to facilitate servicing.
  • a single large tank as opposed to a farm of smaller tanks, is preferred for the reduction in use of material and exposure of surface area, not to mention the heat retention capability of a massive body of water.
  • a cylindrical tank shape would ordinarily be preferred because it minimizes the surface area to volume ratio.
  • One practical consideration is the narrow passageway represented by the standard thirty inch door frame.
  • STSS Co provides a cylindrical collapsible tank as large as 1242 liters, potentially serving up to five collectors, in a crate just 48cm in depth. This is achieved by laminating a thin metal sheet to an insulation backing to form a cylindrical sidewall and then folding the sidewall onto itself to form a flat configuration.
  • the problem is, the insulation is limited in thickness by the need to fold it, and, consequently, high R- values cannot be attained.
  • a polygonal configuration with modular elements solves the problem of folding.
  • the flat wall sections facilitate a compact configuration when disassembled for bundling.
  • the branded tank, NovaMAX by NovanTM Solar Inc. for example, provides 300-plus gallon rectangular tanks that can be shipped in sections and bolted together.
  • the sidewalls are faced with aluminum sheeting and backed with two inch insulation having an R-16 value.
  • a liner is provided to seal the inside for water containment.
  • a typical liner material, having good heat resistance, is EPDM
  • the liner adds cost and places a limitation on storage temperature.
  • An EPDM liner for example, can cost as much as $32US/m 2 and must be used at 80°C or below.
  • a collapsible thermal storage tank for containment of a liquid medium comprising at least one foldable rectangular panel having a first configuration in the shape of a U, the U forming the tank side walls and bottom.
  • the U has a second configuration in the form of flat fold, wherein the side walls are collapsed upon the bottom.
  • the at least one rectangular panel includes three insulation cores, each having an inside face and an outside face. Each outside face is laminated to a first thin metal sheet.
  • the three inside faces are joined to form a strip by lamination to a second thin metal sheet, the strip layout having spaces between insulation cores to accommodate the folds.
  • the second thin metal sheet has flange extensions to form seams with adjoining panels.
  • the collapsible thermal storage tank further comprises two rectangular end panels fitted to the first configuration to enclose the tank.
  • Each end panel includes an insulation core having an inside face and an outside face.
  • Each outside face is laminated to a first thin metal sheet.
  • Each inside face is laminated to a second thin metal sheet, the second thin metal sheet having flange extensions to form seams with the flange extensions of the at least one foldable rectangular panel.
  • the collapsible thermal storage tank further comprises a plurality of U-shaped clips disposed around the pair of flanges meeting at each rectangular end panel side and bottom corner to seam- wise join each rectangular end panel to the at least one foldable rectangular panel.
  • a plurality of resilient gaskets is disposed between each pair of flanges inside the U-shaped clips, whereby the resilience of the gaskets is sufficient to hold the U-shaped clips in place and to form a liquid-tight seal at each of the corners.
  • the collapsible thermal storage tank comprises a plurality of the foldable rectangular panels.
  • the panels are sealingly joined at abutting flanges to modularly increase the volume of the tank.
  • the insulation cores are comprised of foam sheets laminated into a composite having an insulation value in the range of R-25 to R-75.
  • the first thin metal sheet is comprised of 0.51mm aluminum sheeting and the second thin metal sheet is comprised of 0.46mm 316L stainless steel.

  • the exterior member is machined from aluminum flat bar.
  • the elastic cord is comprised of approximately 4mm diameter silicone.
  • a low aspect tank one with a low ratio of height to floor area, will have a lower static resistance requirement, but may also have higher heat or evaporative losses due to higher surface area.
  • Fig's 6 and 7 show a girding framework 61 encircling the tank at a floor level and at a mid- wall level.
  • the girding framework 61 is comprised of the braces 62.
  • the braces 62 may be comprised of metal, wood, or any material of sufficient modulus.
  • the braces 62 are constructed with metal beams.
  • the means for reinforcing 60 may additionally include cross-ties 63 (not shown) spanning from sidewall to sidewall.
  • the means for reinforcing 60 may be comprised of the insulation cores 20 themselves. Because the metal sheets are bonded to both sides of the cores, and because the sheets have high tensile strength, the composite structure is rendered thereby stiff and further stiffness is available by layering-up the composite. This has the effect of reducing the beam strength requirement for the braces 62, and may, in the simple module of a single folded rectangular panel 7, eliminate the need for any additional bracing. Lastly, the tank may be buried with the walls supported by backfill. The first thin metal sheet 31 and the corner plugs serve an important structural function, and this is particularly the case when the tank is buried.
  • the sidewalls and bottom can be prepared as separate panels and joined at flange ends by U-shaped clips 41 and resilient gaskets 46 to form two bottom seams.
  • the foldable rectangular panel 7 eliminates these two seams and simplifies assembly by prefabricating the sidewalls and bottom.
  • the modular construction with panels provides a convenient way to transport the knocked- down collapsible thermal storage tank 6.
  • the modular panels will easily fit through a standard door frame.
  • the use of foam insulation and thin metal sheets makes the construction lightweight and easily handled. Assembling the panels is a simple matter of pounding the U-shaped clips 41 with a mallet over the flange extensions 17 with the resilient gaskets 46 sandwiched in between, and finishing the sealing by applying the means for sealing gaps 50.
