Abstract:
A thermal heat capture, storage, and exchange arrangement, includes at least one thermal exchange and storage (TXES) array, with each TXES array including one or more TXES elements that receive a fluid flow of a heat source fluid and a working fluid, with the TXES elements providing for a transfer of thermal energy between the heat source fluid and the TXES elements. A manifold system provides the working fluid to an input of the TXES elements and receives the working fluid from an output of the TXES elements. At least one heat engine operable with the TXES array extracts heat from the TXES array and converts it to mechanical energy, with the heat engine being selectively connected to the manifold system of a TXES array to pass the working fluid through the TXES elements, such that a transfer of thermal energy between the working fluid and the TXES elements occurs.

Claim (Index 5):
The method of  claim 2  wherein providing each of the desired number of modular TXES elements further comprises constructing a TXES element by:\n forming an element body from a matrix material, the matrix material comprising one of a mixture of cement binder and aggregate and a mixture of a binder and a phase change material; \n providing one or more flue tubes or passageways in the element body to provide for a flow of the heated source fluid through the TXES element; and \n providing one or more working fluid tubes in the element body separate from the one or more flue tubes or passageways to provide for a flow of the working fluid through the TXES element.
