What is a pebble-bed storage unit?

A pebble-bed (packed-bed) storage unit uses the heat capacity of a bed of loosely packed particulate material to store energy. A fluid, usually air, is circulated through the bed to add or remove energy. A variety of solids may be used, rock and pebble being the most widely used materials. A pebble-bed storage unit is shown in Fig. 4.4.

Simulated energy and exergy analyses of the charging of an oil–pebble

Energies. Most solar cookers usually perform a single task of solely cooking food during sunshine hours. Solar cookers coupled with thermal energy storage (TES) material for off-sunshine cooking are usually expensive and require complex engineering designs, and cannot be used for dual purposes, for example, solar water heating and cooking.
