Stratification analysis of domestic hot water storage tanks: A comprehensive review …
Abstract. To assure high quality thermal storage and high efficiency of its acquisition, thermal stratification is often employed in domestic hot water tanks. The whole motivation of stratification lies in the fact that mixing effect can be minimized during operational cycle of the tank so that high temperature water could be taken at the load ...

Fluid storage tanks: A review on dynamic behaviour modelling, seismic energy …
The main principles for modelling the dynamic behaviour of fluid storage tanks for anchored or fixed-based tanks are applied to unanchored tanks as well. However, when tanks are exposed to the uplift occurrence, dynamic equations of motion need to be modified to account for the rotation or rocking of the tank as a result of the uplift.

An overview of thermal energy storage systems
Thermal energy storage at temperatures in the range of 100 °C-250 °C is considered as medium temperature heat storage. At these temperatures, water exists as steam in atmospheric pressure and has vapor pressure. Typical applications in this temperature range are drying, steaming, boiling, sterilizing, cooking etc.
