How can I achieve energy storage using molten salt?

I want to design an energy storage system but I'm required to use molten salt as the storing element.

My question is; How can I achieve the circuit (molten salt part) in simulink?

Hi Anderson,

We don't currently have a pre-built block for molten salt energy storage, so you would need to build out the equations for it in either Simulink or Simscape. You could use Simulink for the equations and then apply it to a Simscape thermal/electrical network through controlled sources, or build out the thermal and electrical networks using the fundamental blocks from the respective SImscape foundation libraries.

Best,
