Abstract

With the shortage of traditional fossil energy and the aggravation of global warming, the demand for transformation from traditional fossil energy to renewable energy becomes more and more urgent. Compressed air energy storage technology is a guaranteed technology to overcome the time limit of renewable energy and achieve sustainable, efficient and large-scale application of renewable resources. In order to solve the traditional compressed air energy storage technology energy output variety is single, there is low grade energy waste defects. This paper presents a compressed air energy storage system based on intermediate cooling. Through the intercooler, the system adjusts the inlet temperature of the expander, improves the output cooling quality, and realizes the coupling operation of refrigeration and energy storage. This paper establishes a thermodynamic model of the system, analyzes the effects of ambient air temperature and inlet temperature of expander on system performance, and compares the energy efficiency ratio of the system with that of compressed air refrigeration system. The simulation results show that the system can adjust the inlet temperature of expander to increase the net power consumption and achieve high quality cooling output.
