Rock has often been suggested as a medium for the thermal storage of energy.A cylindrical piece of rock with diameter 10 m and height 20 m is used for thestorage of thermal energy. The rock is insulated and has an average heattransfer coefficient, U = 0.28 kW/m2 K. The density of the rock material is2,650 kg/m3 and its specific heat capacity is 0.72 kJ/kgK. The temperature ofthe rock is raised to 500C and the ambient temperature is 25C. Determine:a) The total energy stored in the rock in MWh.b) The temperature of the rock 12 h after the heating process stops.c) The heat that has escaped from the rock during this 12 h period.d) The loss of exergy of the rock during this 12 h period.
