It's also not clear how quickly heat can be extracted from the bricks. There were decades of research on energy storage in molten sodium-potassium nitrate because it's a liquid so your output is always very close to the temperature of the salt bath. Clay is not a great heat conductor.
- SECProto 4y ago> It's also not clear how quickly heat can be extracted from the bricks. This is a commonly defined material property [1]. You would simply size your bricks to suit the situation - given same volume, more surface area means faster heat flow.
