Performance analysis of compressed air energy storage systems considering dynamic characteristics of compressed air storage

The compressed air storage connects charging and discharging process and plays a significant role on performance of Adiabatic Compressed Air Energy Storage (A-CAES) system. In this paper, a thermodynamic model of A-CAES system was developed in Matlab Simulink software, and a dynamic compressed air storage model was applied in the simulation, revealing the influence of time-varying temperature and pressure of air on performance indicators, e.g., roundtrip efficiency and energy density. The analysis results can be used as an explanation of the contradicting conclusions on system efficiency from other articles, as well as a reference in the design and operation of an A-CAES plant.
