ASME PTC 53-2022 PDF: Mechanical and Thermal Energy Storage Systems
The object of this Code is to establish uniform test methods and procedures for conducting performance tests of mechanical or thermal energy storage systems (ESSs). An ESS is a system that consumes energy to increase the internal energy of the storage media and releases that stored energy to produce useful power or heat. The standard test procedures for ESSs established by this Code provide the highest level of accuracy consistent with current engineering practice.
