Thermocline thermal storage systems for concentrated solar
Xu et al. (2012b) presented a two-dimensional, two-phase model for heat transfer and fluid dynamics within the thermocline storage system. The authors used the model to evaluate different correlations for the interstitial heat transfer coefficient, effective thermal conductivity and the effect of the thermal conductivity of solid fillers.

Advanced thermocline concepts for thermal energy storage
Thermocline is a cost efficient thermal storage system able to reduce capital costs up to 40%. The objective of NEWCLINE is to develop new thermocline concepts that can be applicable to different CSP plants (PT, CR, LF). Two different, but complementary, concepts related to the materials (media) are proposed.

FLASC – Offshore Energy Storage | Research Trust Malta
One distinct advantage is the use of deep seawater as the working fluid in the hydro-pneumatic circuit. This will be extracted from deep-sea regions below the thermocline layer and thus maintain a stable cool temperature all year round. The system can therefore also act as a form of thermal energy storage for cooling applications.
