The '''Central Thermal Battery''' (also known as the "cistern") is the single most important "anchor" in the entire [[Project: Flamenco]] system.

It is a large, subterranean water tank, buried 6-10 feet underground to maintain a stable, year-round temperature (approx. 64°F).

This massive, stable water volume serves as the facility's "thermal anchor" or "battery."

=== System Functions ===

1. '''Water Supply:''' It is the primary reservoir for the facility, fed by the [[Rainwater Harvesting System (Isidore)|Rainwater Harvesting System]].
2. '''Cold Sink:''' It is the "cold side" for the [[Stirling Engine Array (Isidore)|Stirling Engine Array]]. The temperature differential between the hot server coolant and the cold cistern water is what drives the engines.
3. '''Summer Cooling:''' It provides "free" cooling for the [[Aquaponics System (Maria)|aquaponics system]] via a [[Liquid-to-Liquid Heat Exchanger (Isidore)|heat exchanger]].
4. '''Heat Sink:''' It is the final "dump" for any excess server heat that is not used by the other systems, ensuring the [[Server Room (Flamenco)|server room]] can be cooled under any conditions.
