Abstract

The conventional photothermal-assisted scheme adopted by advanced adiabatic compressed air energy storage (AA-CAES) has equal stages of expanders and high-temperature reheaters, and is equipped with a regenerator to waste heat recovery, which is relatively complex and requires high solar heat supply and solar irradiance. In this paper, a novel photothermal-assisted AA-CAES (PT-AA-CAES) with a simpler structure and suitable for low solar irradiance is designed, which adopts 3-stage expansion and 2-stage high-temperature reheat. The thermodynamic model of PT-AA-CAES system is established, and a comprehensive evaluation coefficient combining exergy efficiency and energy storage density is proposed. The numerical results demonstrate that the compressor unit outlet pressure and expansion unit inlet pressure with the optimal comprehensive performance are 10 MPa and 4 MPa. Furthermore, when the solar irradiance is below 690 W/m2, 660 W/m2, and 600 W/m2, the output work, exergy efficiency, and energy storage density of the novel PT-AA-CAES system will surpass those of the conventional PT-AA-CAES system with the same solar heat consumption, and at a solar irradiance of 580 W/m2, the exceeded values are 44.3 kW h, 2.03%, and 0.15 kW h/m3, respectively. These conclusions can assist the AA-CAES system in the selection of unit pressures and photothermal-assisted scheme.
