Im Projekt wurde eine alternative Speicherkonstruktion im Bereich von 500 bis 6000 m3 für den Betrieb in Solar- und Fernwärmesystemen entwickelt. Ausgangspunkt bilden große Kaltwasserspeicher in Segmentbauweise. Die Bautechnologie bietet ein signifikantes Kostenreduktionspotenzial gegenüber geschweißten Flachbodentanks, konnte bisher aber nicht auf Wärmespeicher übertragen werden. Aufgrund der dünnwandigen Bauweise und der Projektziele musste eine Überarbeitung des Wandaufbaus, der Einbauten und der Peripherie erfolgen. Dieser Bericht liefert eine Beschreibung des Speicher-Systems und die Ergebnisse des Verbundvorhabens. Die Funktionsfähigkeit wurde mit einem dreistufigen Verfahren nachgewiesen. Das geplante Vorgehen mit Laborversuchen im kleinen Maßstab bis zum Test mit einem Demonstrator im Realmaßstab (100 m3) war notwendig und zielführend. Die Bearbeitung der Hauptaufgaben (z. B. Materialuntersuchungen, Konstruktion, Betrieb) erfolgte vernetzt durch die beteiligten Forschungsinstitutionen. Das grundlegende Potenzial für eine spätere Anwendung in solaren Nahwärmesystemen oder Sekundärnetzgebieten der klassischen Fernwärme sind gegeben. Vor allem im Bereich der Beladung und im Wandaufbau konnten große Verbesserungen erzielt werden. Weitere Optimierungen und die Umsetzung mit größeren Speichern stehen noch aus. / In the project, an alternative construction for thermal energy stores in the range of 500 to 6000 m3 was developed for operation in solar and district heating systems. Large cold water storage tanks in segmental construction are the starting point. Their construction technology offers a significant potential for cost reduction compared to welded flat-bottom tanks, but could so far not be transferred to hot water storage tanks. Due to the new design and the project objectives, the wall structure, the internals and the periphery had to be completely revised. This report provides a description of the storage system and the results of the joint project. The functionality was proven with a three-stage procedure. The planned procedure with laboratory tests on a small scale up to the test with a demonstrator on a real scale (100 m3) was necessary and purposeful. The main tasks (e.g. material testing, design, operation) were carried out by the participating research institutions in a network. The basic potential for a later application in solar local heating systems or secondary network areas of conventional district heating is given. Significant improvements were realized, especially in regard of the charging system and the wall construction. However, further optimizations and the transfer to larger storage tanks is still pending.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Epigenetic alterations have been shown to control cell type specification and differentiation leading to the changes in chromatin structure and organization of many genes. HDACs have been well documented to play an important role in both neurogenesis and gliogenesis in ganglionic eminence and cortex-derived cultures. However, the role of HDACs in glial cell type specification and differentiation in the optic nerve has not been well described. As a first step towards understanding their role in glial cell type specification, we have examined histone acetylation and methylation levels as well as the expression levels and patterns of the classical HDACs in both murine and chick optic nerve. Analysis of mRNA and protein levels in the developing optic nerve indicated that all 11 members of the classical HDAC family were expressed, with a majority declining in expression as development proceeded. Based on the localization pattern in both chick and murine optic nerve glial cells, we were able to group the classical HDACs: predominantly nuclear, nuclear and cytoplasmic, predominantly cytoplasmic. Nuclear expression of HDACs during different stages of development studied in this project in both murine and chick optic nerve glial cells suggests that HDACs play a role in stage-dependent changes in gene expression that accompany differentiation of astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. Examination of localization pattern of the HDACs is the first step towards identifying the specific HDACs involved directly in specification and differentiation of glia in optic nerve.
