Abstract
In compressed air energy storage systems, throttle valves that are used to stabilize the air storage equipment pressure can cause significant exergy losses, which can be effectively improved by adopting inverter-driven technology. In this paper, a novel scheme for a compressed air energy storage system is proposed to realize pressure regulation by adopting an inverter-driven compressor. The system proposed and a reference system are evaluated through exergy analysis, dynamic characteristics analysis, and various other assessments. A comprehensive performance analysis is conducted based on key parameters such as thermal storage temperature, component isentropic efficiency, and designated discharge pressure. The results show that the novel system achieves a relative improvement of 3.64% in round-trip efficiency, demonstrating its capability to enhance efficiency without significantly increasing system complexity. Therefore, the system proposed offers a viable solution for optimizing compressed air energy storage systems.
期刊介绍：
Frontiers in Energy, an interdisciplinary and peer-reviewed international journal launched in January 2007, seeks to provide a rapid and unique platform for reporting the most advanced research on energy technology and strategic thinking in order to promote timely communication between researchers, scientists, engineers, and policy makers in the field of energy.
Frontiers in Energy aims to be a leading peer-reviewed platform and an authoritative source of information for analyses, reviews and evaluations in energy engineering and research, with a strong focus on energy analysis, energy modelling and prediction, integrated energy systems, energy conversion and conservation, energy planning and energy on economic and policy issues.
Frontiers in Energy publishes state-of-the-art review articles, original research papers and short communications by individual researchers or research groups. It is strictly peer-reviewed and accepts only original submissions in English. The scope of the journal is broad and covers all latest focus in current energy research.
High-quality papers are solicited in, but are not limited to the following areas:
-Fundamental energy science
-Energy technology, including energy generation, conversion, storage, renewables, transport, urban design and building efficiency
