Dear all,
I´m working with Type 4 to simulate a stratified storage tank.
I have a question due to my results. If the storage volume (liters)
increases of course the absolute tank losses (Wh) are getting higher
as well. But how can i show that the relative value decreases if the
storage tank gets bigger? The literature says, that the relative tank
losses decrease with a higher tank volume since the relation of volume
to surface increases.
But even if I compare the "tank losses" to the "energy from heat
source", the relative value gets higher with a bigger storage tank.
I am very thankful for any suggestions to answer this question.
Best,
Michael
