Problems solved by technology

During the working process of the liquefied air energy storage system, 100% air liquefaction cannot be achieved due to the limited available cold energy, so that the compression heat generated in the energy storage stage cannot be completely consumed in the energy release stage, resulting in a large amount of heat loss, which not only affects the overall system Cycle operation efficiency is adversely affected, and environmental heat pollution is also generated
[0003] In order to solve the problem of low efficiency of the energy storage system caused by excess compression heat, an external cycle can usually be introduced to use the excess compression heat to drive the power plant to generate additional energy output, such as: organic Rankine cycle and kalina cycle, etc., but the external power cycle The introduction of the system will not only cause a significant increase in the complexity of the system, but also greatly increase the equipment investment and operation and maintenance costs of the system
