After a review of district heating generation and storage technologies, a simple model of a stratified tank is developed. It is then validated by means of comparison with an established model, and integrated into a representation of the whole Verona disrict network.

Abstract

After a review of district heating generation and storage technologies, a simple model of a stratified tank is developed. It is then validated by means of comparison with an established model, and integrated into a representation of the whole Verona disrict network. The aim is to evaluate the flexibility that can be provided by a tank. It is found to be satisfactory when compared with using the network as storage, however it entails costs of a different nature.
