ABSTRACT:
A heat storage unit (100) in the form of a rectangular parallelepiped is provided with a removable closure element (104), and contains a plurality of removable closed plastic tubes (126) holding a heat storage substance, the tubes being laterally supported by adjacent tubes and longitudinally supported to be spaced from ends of the unit by grids (124a and b). A transfer fluid flows from one end of the unit to the other through spaces between the tubes. A heat storage system (FIGS. 4 or 5 for example) is conveniently custom built by attaching a plurality of the rectangular parallelepiped units to form a cluster of units. Each unit includes a special structural frame (106) to allow such attaching. The units contain heat storage substances of various adjustable melting temperatures, thereby providing for the storing of heat as the latent heat of fusion at several temperature levels.
