Summary
Dynamic system simulation facilitates the optimization of thermal storage system design and operation. This paper introduces an ice tank software model used for the thermal storage and HVAC dynamic system simulation called TSTORS. It is a time dependent model for an encapsulated ice tank. The model is also applicable to other ice tanks with such designs as non-spherical capsules or built-in metal cores in the ice balls. For such tanks, the parameters needed for the model can be obtained from data provided by the manufacturers.
