Overview

Observational analysis confirmed high thermal efficiencies and energy storage in a solar pond, suggesting effective carbon mitigation strategies.

Key Points

  • Annual stored energy amounted to 7040.35 MJ experimentally, showcasing the effectiveness of thermal energy storage.
  • Peak thermal efficiencies of 49.18% were achieved in December, indicating successful heat utilization across seasons.
  • The model developed validated the stable thermal stratification using calcium chloride solutions for the solar pond.
  • Payback periods were estimated at 6.35 years experimentally and 5.90 years numerically, underscoring economic feasibility.
