A steam accumulator is an insulated steel pressure tank containing hot water and steam under pressure. It is a type of energy storage device. It can be used to smooth out peaks and troughs in demand for steam. Steam accumulators may take on a significance for energy storage in solar thermal energy projects. An example is the PS10 solar power plant near Seville, Spain and one planned for th
Steam accumulators also differ in operating behavior from two tank storage concepts; most systems deliver steam at sliding pressure during discharge, and exergetic eficiency is limited.
Thermal Energy Storage provides a complete solution with building-level controls and digital services. Thermal Energy Storage tanks are easy to integrate, come with system design guidance, control sequences, and

A complete overview of the need for steam storage to meet peak load demands in specific industries, including the design, construction and operation of a steam accumulator, with calculations.
The storage tank of a steam accumulator must be able to withstand the pressure of the water, including hydrostatic pressure. The storage tank accounts for the larg-est portion of the capital cost of a steam storage tank. One focus of the design is to minimize the mass of the storage tank for safe operation.
According to [Goldstern1963], dry steam storage tanks with volumes up to 3000 m3 have been built for maximum steam pressures of 1.2 bar. To avoid the pressure drop dur-ing discharge, the bell accumulator with variable storage volume was developed. Similar to a gasometer used to store low-pressure natural gas, the bell floats on a water reservoir.
When steam is supplied, it condenses in the water contained in the storage tank, causing the water level to rise and creating excess pressure in the tank. Together with the tank insulation, this contributes to the energy conservation of the heat transfer medium.
For low steam pressures, there is the possibility of direct storage of superheated steam, but the low storage density of steam requires large volumes. According to [Goldstern1963], dry steam storage tanks with volumes up to 3000 m3 have been built for maximum steam pressures of 1.2 bar.
The use of prestressed cast iron tanks was proposed in [Gilli1977] as an alternative to welded steel tanks in large-scale steam storage for power plant applications. The use of underground caverns for the storage of pressurized liquid water was presented in a feasibility study [Dooley1977].
