Analysis of thermochemical energy storage in metal carbonates: characterizing cycling-induced degradation
A solid-gas reaction rate modeling framework is applied to characterize degradation in thermochemical materials induced by thermal cycling. Time constants and a kinetic conversion ratio are established for a representative carbonation-calcination reaction, which provides insight into degradation mechanisms and reveals a mitigation strategy by tuning reaction duration.
