Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of clean energy technology, and in particular relates to a compressed air energy and heat storage device and a control method. Background Art

[0002] The development of renewable and clean energy is a development trend in the energy field. Energy storage technology can smooth the output fluctuations of wind and solar power sources, improve and connect to the grid, and is a major component of power system construction. The demand for large-scale and long-term energy storage technology is particularly strong.

[0003] Compressed air energy storage is an important form of energy storage. It is another technology suitable for large-scale power energy storage besides pumped storage. Compressed air energy storage not only has the advantages of high energy storage, but also has the advantages of high energy density, high power density, low operating cost, and long service life. Compressed air energy storage technology mainly includes: traditional compressed air energy storage, adiabatic compressed air energy storage, isothermal compressed air energy storage, liquid compressed air energy storage, etc.

[0004] Taking the storage of electrical energy as an example, the compressed air energy storage system can be mainly divided into two basic working processes: energy storage and energy release. When storing energy, the electric motor drives the air compressor to absorb air from the environment, compress it to a high-pressure state and store it in the air storage reservoir. In this process, electrical energy is converted into the internal energy of the compressed air; when releasing energy, the compressed air stored in the air storage device enters the air turbine to expand and generate electricity, and the internal energy and potential energy contained in the compressed air are converted back into electrical energy.

[0005] However, in current engineering applications, medium-temperature thermal storage spherical tanks using water as the thermal storage medium all use single-layer steel structures, and the common materials are carbon steel or alloy steel. Limited by the physical properties of the thermal storage medium and the manufacturing level of large-capacity single-layer steel structure pressure spherical tanks, the maximum thermal storage temperature in actual engineering applications can only be around 220°C.

[0048] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0049] Adiabatic compressed air energy storage can minimize heat exchange between the air compressor and the environment and reduce heat dissipation by taking good thermal insulation measures, so as to be as close to the adiabatic compression process as possible. At the same time, by increasing the single-stage compression ratio of the air compressor, higher temperature compressed air and higher grade compression heat energy can be obtained, and the pressure potential energy and compression heat energy can be decoupled and stored. During the energy release process, the stored compression heat energy can be used to heat the air turbine inlet air, realizing non-supplementary compressed air energy storage without the need for additional fuel.

[0050] According to the different heat storage temperatures, adiabatic compressed air energy storage has three different technical routes: high temperature, medium-high temperature, and medium temperature. Among them, the exhaust temperature of the compressor of the high-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage system can reach above 600°C, which can improve the energy storage efficiency of the system. However, the sealing structure and lubrication structure inside the high-temperature air compressor currently have major technical bottlenecks, and the solid packed bed is prone to temperature gradients and uneven heat exchange. Therefore, the current high-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage system is difficult to achieve engineering application. The heat storage temperature of the medium-high temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage system is generally around 300°C. The commonly used heat storage medium is thermal oil or molten salt. The equipment technology is mature, the cost is reasonable, and it is easy to apply in engineering. The heat storage temperature of the medium-temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage system is generally around 200°C, and the heat storage medium is water. The key equipment technology is mature, the cost is reasonable, and it is easy to apply in engineering. The medium-temperature route has a low initial investment and a simple and mature process solution, so it is widely used.

[0051] For example, the medium-temperature non-supplementary adiabatic compressed air energy storage technology route can be adopted in the system, and the heat storage system uses the double tank method to realize the storage process of thermal energy. The low-temperature heat medium water circulation pump pumps the cold water in the low-temperature spherical tank into the air compression side air-water heat exchanger, absorbs the compression heat of the first three stages of the air compressor, and stores the hot water after heat absorption and heating in the high-temperature and high-pressure spherical tank to complete the heat storage process; during the air expansion process, the high-temperature heat medium water circulation pump pumps the hot water in the high-temperature and high-pressure spherical tank into the air expansion side air-water heat exchanger, releases heat to heat the compressed air, increases the inlet air temperature of the expander, and stores the low-temperature water after heat release and cooling in the low-temperature spherical tank to complete the heat release process. From the working principle of the adiabatic compressed air energy storage system, it can be seen that the heat storage temperature affects the intake temperature of the expansion process. According to the theory of classical thermodynamics, the intake temperature of the expander is positively correlated with the expansion power output of the unit. Therefore, the increase in the system heat storage temperature will increase the output power of the expansion process, thereby improving the overall energy efficiency of the system.

[0052] For compressed air energy storage systems, the subsystems that have a greater impact on efficiency are mainly the air compression subsystem, gas storage subsystem, heat storage and exchange subsystem, and expansion and power generation subsystem. Among them, the efficiency of the air compression subsystem and the expansion and power generation subsystem is mainly limited by the working principle and manufacturing capacity of the air compressor and air turbine, and the room for improvement is relatively limited; large-scale compressed air energy storage power stations all use underground gas storage (salt caverns, artificial chambers, etc.) for gas storage. The efficiency of the gas storage subsystem is greatly affected by external conditions. The heat storage and exchange subsystem will directly affect the conversion efficiency of thermal energy in energy conversion, and the impact on the overall efficiency of the system is relatively obvious.

[0053] At present, the medium-temperature route heat storage spherical tank with water as the heat storage medium in the heat storage and exchange subsystem adopts a single-layer steel structure heat storage spherical tube. Limited by the physical properties of the heat storage medium and the manufacturing level of large-capacity single-layer steel structure pressure spherical tanks, the current maximum heat storage temperature in actual engineering applications is about 220°C. Through the water thermodynamic parameter table, it can be found that the saturated pressure corresponding to 220°C saturated water is 2.32MPa.a, and the corresponding saturated pressure increases with the temperature. According to the relevant specifications of pressure vessels, if the pressure needs to be increased, the wall thickness of the heat storage spherical tank needs to be increased. However, due to the influence of multiple factors such as manufacturing and processing capabilities, material stress fatigue, welding process requirements, and manufacturing costs, the heat storage temperature in actual applications is within 230°C.

[0054] In this example, a compressed air energy storage heat storage device and a control method are provided, in which the outlet gas of the air compressor is used as the pressurized gas source of the heat storage device, and the valve operation is implemented through the DCS (Distributed Control System) to achieve integrated centralized control at the plant level, thereby achieving the purpose of safe and stable operation, and can greatly increase the heat storage temperature, improve the system efficiency and the economy of the power station.

[0055] Specifically, in this example, a high-efficiency heat storage device and control system for a compressed air energy storage power station are provided, such as Figure 1 As shown, it may include: an air compression subsystem (pressure air source), a heat storage spherical tank 7, an electric gate valve 1, a check valve 2, an electric gate valve 3, an electric regulating valve 4, an electric gate valve 5, a safety valve 6, a nitrogen making system 8, a check valve 9, an electric gate valve 10, an electric regulating valve 11, an electric gate valve 12, a safety valve 13, a check valve 14, an electric gate valve 15, a pressure monitoring device 16 and a pressure monitoring device 17, and a number of pipelines.

[0056] Among them, the heat storage spherical tank 7 is the main body of the heat storage device; the electric gate valve 1 is used to open and close the compressed air main plant; the check valve 2 is used to prevent the gas backflow from affecting the operation of the compression system; the electric gate valve 3 is used to open and close the heat storage spherical tank; the electric regulating valve 4 is used to adjust the gas supply pressure; the electric gate valve 5 is used for valve adjustment, maintenance and cut-off. In normal operation, the electric gate valve 5 is normally open; the safety valve 6 is used to prevent gas overpressure and release pressure to the air when overpressure occurs; the nitrogen making system 8 is used to provide a stable pressure gas source for the inner cavity of the heat storage spherical tank; the check valve 9 is used to prevent the stable pressure nitrogen from flowing back; the electric gate valve Valve 10 is used to close, open and shut down the heat storage spherical tank nearby; electric regulating valve 11 is used to adjust the nitrogen supply pressure; electric gate valve 12 is used to adjust the valve for maintenance and shut off, and the electric gate valve 12 is normally open under normal operating conditions; safety valve 13 is used to prevent gas overpressure and release pressure to the air when overpressure occurs; check valve 14 is used to prevent gas reflux from causing air to enter the inner cavity of the heat storage spherical tank and aggravate the corrosion of the inner cavity of the spherical tank; electric gate valve 15 is used to open and close the connecting pipe between the nitrogen pipeline and the air pipeline; pressure monitoring device 16 is used to monitor the pressure between the double-layer tank bodies and feed back the detected pressure signal to DCS.

[0057] In one embodiment, the heat storage spherical tank 7 is a double-layer structured pressurized heat storage spherical tank. The inner tank body cavity of the heat storage spherical tank 7 stores high-pressure saturated water and pressure-stabilized nitrogen. The outer tank body wall is installed with a support base and an insulation layer. Pressurized dry air or nitrogen is filled between the double-layer tank bodies. Support connectors are evenly distributed between the two layers. The support connectors evenly share the loads of the outer spherical tank, the insulation layer, the pipeline valve load, wind load, snow load, and other loads.

[0058] Taking a 300MW compressed air energy storage power station as an example, an air supply pipeline is added to the pipeline after the outlet heat exchanger of the second-stage air compressor. The air supply pipeline is equipped with an electric gate valve 1, a check valve 2, an electric gate valve 3, an electric regulating valve 4, an electric gate valve 5, and a safety valve 6 in sequence to inject pressurized air into the gap between the double-layer tanks.

[0059] Taking a storage cycle of a compressed air energy storage power station as an example, it is divided into a compressed energy storage stage, a shutdown energy storage stage, an expansion energy release stage, and a shutdown stage after energy release. These stages are described as follows:

[0060] 1) Compression energy storage stage:

[0061] After the air compressor is started, open the electric gate valve 1, electric gate valve 3, electric regulating valve 4, and electric gate valve 5. The outlet pressure of the second-stage compressor of the air compressor is 2.6MPa.g. After part of the air is heated and dried by the heat exchanger, it flows through the electric gate valve 1, check valve 2, electric gate valve 3, electric regulating valve 4, electric gate valve 5, and safety valve 6 in sequence and is injected into the gap between the double-layer tank bodies. The outlet pressure of the electric regulating valve 4 is set to 2.3MPa.g, and the pipeline resistance after the electric regulating valve 4 is temporarily set to 0.1MPa. When the pressure monitoring device 16 monitors that the air pressure between the double-layer tank bodies of the heat storage spherical tank reaches the first rated pressure value (that is, the gap full gas threshold, for example: 2.2MPa.g), the pressure signal is fed back to the DCS system, and the electric gate valve 1, electric gate valve 3, and electric gate valve 5 are closed in conjunction to complete the gas injection process.

[0062] Furthermore, the pressure signal of the pressure monitoring device 16 is continuously collected. When the pressure is lower than the lower limit of the gap pressure, the electric gate valve 1, the electric gate valve 3, and the electric gate valve 5 are opened through the DCS system to supplement the pressure; when the pressure is higher than the upper limit of the gap pressure, the safety valve 6 automatically opens to release pressure to the air and maintains the pressure at the rated pressure value. Among them, the gap full gas threshold is greater than the lower limit of the gap pressure and less than the upper limit of the gap pressure. For example, the gap full gas threshold is 2.2MPa.g, the lower limit of the gap pressure is 2MPa.g, and the upper limit of the gap pressure is 2.3MPa.g. However, it is worth noting that the gap full gas threshold, the lower limit of the gap pressure, and the upper limit of the gap pressure given in this example are only an exemplary description. In actual implementation, the numerical value can be selected as needed.

[0063] At the same time, the nitrogen filling process of the inner cavity of the heat storage spherical tank is carried out synchronously, the nitrogen making system 8 is started, and the nitrogen at the outlet of the nitrogen making system 8 flows through the check valve 9, the electric gate valve 10, the electric regulating valve 11, the electric gate valve 12, and the safety valve 13, and is injected into the inner cavity of the heat storage spherical tank. The outlet pressure of the electric regulating valve 11 is set to 4.7MPa.g, and the pipeline resistance after the electric regulating valve 11 is temporarily set to 0.1MPa. The pressure monitoring device 17 monitors the inner cavity pressure of the heat storage spherical tank to reach the second rated pressure value (that is, the full gas threshold in the cavity, for example: 2.4MPa.g, that is, the gap full gas threshold plus the full gas threshold in the cavity is equal to 4.6MPa.g), and the pressure signal is fed back to the DCS system, and the electric gate valve 10 and the electric gate valve 12 are closed in linkage to complete the nitrogen injection process.

[0064] During implementation, the cavity full gas threshold is slightly higher than the void full gas threshold (for example: the cavity full gas threshold is 2.4MPa.g, and the void full gas threshold is 2.2MPa.g). This is mainly because the diameter of the inner spherical tank is slightly smaller than the diameter of the outer spherical tank. Slightly increasing the inner cavity pressure can make the wall thickness of the outer and inner spherical tanks close or even the same, which is beneficial to the procurement and processing of raw materials.

[0065] Furthermore, the pressure signal of the pressure monitoring device 17 is continuously collected. When the pressure is lower than the lower limit of the cavity pressure, the electric gate valve 10 and the electric gate valve 12 are opened through the DCS system to supplement the pressure. When the pressure is higher than the upper limit of the cavity pressure, the safety valve 13 is automatically opened to release pressure to the air to maintain the pressure between the lower limit of the cavity pressure and the upper limit of the cavity pressure.

[0066] Based on the saturated water thermodynamic parameter table, it can be seen that the saturated temperature corresponding to saturated water of 4.7MPa.a is about 260°C. Therefore, through the method of this example, a heat storage temperature of 260°C can be achieved.

[0067] In this case, taking the 300MW compressed air energy storage project as an example, when the heat storage temperature is 260℃, the inner tank body of the double-layer pressure-bearing spherical tank has a pressure bearing capacity greater than 2.3MPa.g, a thickness of a1mm, and the outer tank body has a pressure bearing capacity greater than 2.2MPa.g, a thickness of a2mm. If a single-layer spherical tank body is used, the pressure bearing capacity needs to be greater than 4.6MPa.g, and the thickness is a3. a3 is significantly greater than a1+a2, and when the thickness is a3, the uneven heating of the spherical tank will be more obvious. The heating uniformity of the spherical tank with a thickness of a1 or a2 is significantly better than that of the single-layer spherical tank with a thickness of a3, and the manufacturing difficulty is relatively low. Therefore, the heat storage temperature can be effectively increased through the method of this example, and the implementation cost can be reduced while ensuring that the spherical tank is heated evenly.

[0068] 2) Shutdown energy storage stage:

[0069] During the shutdown energy storage stage, the air compressor is in shutdown or standby state, and the electric gate valve 1, the check valve 2, the electric gate valve 3, the electric regulating valve 4, the electric gate valve 5, and the safety valve 6 are in closed state.

[0070] The pressure signal of the pressure monitoring device 16 is continuously collected. When the pressure is lower than the lower limit of the void pressure, the electric gate valves 10, 12 and 15 are opened through the DCS system to inject nitrogen to supplement the pressure. When the pressure is higher than the upper limit of the void pressure, the safety valve 13 is automatically opened to release pressure to the air to maintain the pressure between the lower limit of the void pressure and the upper limit of the void pressure.

[0071] The pressure signal of the pressure monitoring device 17 is continuously collected. When the pressure is lower than the lower limit of the cavity pressure, the electric gate valve 10 and the electric gate valve 12 are opened through the DCS system to inject nitrogen to supplement the pressure; when the pressure is higher than the upper limit of the cavity pressure, the safety valve 13 is automatically opened to release pressure to the air to maintain the pressure between the lower limit of the cavity pressure and the upper limit of the cavity pressure.

[0072] That is, during the shutdown energy storage stage, the air pressure between the double-layer tank body of the thermal storage spherical tank and the pressure in the inner cavity of the thermal storage spherical tank are maintained by the nitrogen production system. This can ensure that when the compressor is shut down, the air pressure between the thermal storage spherical tank and the double-layer tank body can also be kept stable.

[0073] 3) Expansion energy release stage and shutdown stage after energy release:

[0074] The pressure signals of the pressure monitoring device 16 and the pressure monitoring device 17 are continuously collected, the air compressor is in shutdown or standby state, and the pipeline electric gate valve 1, check valve 2, electric gate valve 3, electric regulating valve 4, electric gate valve 5, and safety valve 6 are in closed state. The saturated pressure decreases as the temperature of the high-pressure hot water storage water decreases, and the pipeline check valve 9, electric gate valve 10, electric regulating valve 11, electric gate valve 12, and safety valve 13 are in closed state.

[0075] In the above example, a high-efficiency heat storage device suitable for a compressed air energy storage power station is provided. The heat storage device adopts a double-layer tank structure, which increases the upper pressure limit of the device. Furthermore, the compression system of the compressed air energy storage and the heat storage system are coupled and utilized. The dry hot air at the outlet of the second compressor is used as the pressure-bearing air source for the gap between the double-layer tanks of the heat storage spherical tank. This can effectively avoid corrosion problems and improve the thermal insulation performance, making the compressed air energy system more reasonable, simple to arrange and easy to operate. Furthermore, the method for controlling the pressure between the double-layer tanks is connected to the nitrogen pressure stabilization system. Nitrogen can be used as a supplementary working fluid between the double-layer tanks. The pressure signal is connected to the power station DCS system to realize centralized control and regulation of the power station. It also increases the upper limit of heat storage when compressed air energy storage uses water as the medium, improves the operating efficiency of the energy storage power station, and better plays the advantages of low investment cost and simple system of water heat storage.

[0076] In this example, a compressed air energy storage device is provided, such as Figure 2 As shown, it may include: a first pipeline 201, a double-layer heat storage spherical tank 202, a nitrogen production system 203, and a second pipeline 204, wherein:

[0077] The first pipeline 201 has a first end connected to the pipeline after the outlet heat exchanger 206 of the second stage compressor of the compressed air energy storage, and a second end connected to the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank, and is used to send the dry pressurized gas sent out by the outlet heat exchanger of the second stage compressor into the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank as a pressurized gas source;

[0078] The second pipeline 204 has a first end connected to the outlet of the nitrogen production system and a second end connected to the inner cavity of the double-layer thermal storage spherical tank, and is used to deliver the nitrogen produced by the nitrogen production system as a pressure-stabilizing gas source into the inner cavity of the double-layer thermal storage spherical tank;

[0079] A third pipeline 205 is connected between the second end of the first pipeline 201 and the second end of the second pipeline 204. The third pipeline is used to deliver the nitrogen produced by the nitrogen production system as a pressurized gas source into the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer thermal storage spherical tank when the compressor of the compressed air energy storage is shut down.

[0080] In order to achieve effective control of the pipelines, various valves are set on the first pipeline, the second pipeline and the third pipeline to match and meet the control requirements. Specifically:

[0081] 1) The first pipeline may be provided with: a first electric gate valve, a first check valve, a second electric gate valve, a first electric regulating valve, and a third electric gate valve in sequence; wherein the first electric gate valve is used to control the on-off of the inlet direction of the first pipeline, the first check valve is used to prevent the gas in the first pipeline from flowing back to the compressor, the second electric gate valve is used to control the on-off of the outlet direction of the first pipeline, the first electric regulating valve is used to adjust the gas supply pressure of the first pipeline, and the third electric gate valve is used to cut off the first electric regulating valve when the first electric regulating valve is overhauled;

[0083] 3) A third check valve and a sixth electric gate valve may be sequentially arranged on the third pipeline; wherein the third check valve is used to prevent gas reflux from causing air to enter the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank and cause corrosion of the inner cavity, and the sixth electric gate valve is used to control the on-off of the connectivity between the first pipeline and the second pipeline.

[0084] Considering that the compressed air energy storage device has a need for gas injection, gas injection involves the question of whether the pressure exceeds or is sufficient. For this purpose, a pressure gauge and a safety valve can be set to monitor the pressure, and when the pressure is too high, the gas is released. For this purpose, the compressed air energy storage device can also include: a first pressure monitor, a second pressure monitor, a first safety valve, and a second safety valve, wherein the first safety valve is connected to the third electric gate valve, and the second safety valve is connected to the fifth electric gate valve; wherein the first pressure monitor is used to monitor the air pressure of the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank as the real-time pressure value of the gap, and when the real-time pressure value of the gap is greater than the upper limit value of the gap pressure, the first safety valve is controlled to open to release the pressure to the air; the second pressure monitor is used to monitor the air pressure of the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank as the real-time pressure value in the cavity, and when the real-time pressure value in the cavity is greater than the upper limit value of the cavity pressure, the second safety valve is controlled to open to release the pressure to the air.

[0085] Considering that the compressed air energy storage and heat storage device has a need for gas injection, gas injection involves the question of whether the pressure exceeds or is sufficient. For this reason, a pressure gauge can be set to monitor the pressure and perform gas injection when the pressure is insufficient. For this reason, the compressed air energy storage and heat storage device can also include: a first pressure monitor, which is used to monitor the air pressure of the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank as the real-time pressure value of the gap. When the real-time pressure value of the gap is less than the lower limit of the gap pressure, the monitored real-time pressure value of the gap is sent to the distributed control system to control the valve in the first pipeline and replenish the air between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank; a second pressure monitor, which is used to monitor the air pressure of the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank as the real-time pressure value in the cavity. When the real-time pressure value in the cavity is less than the lower limit of the pressure in the cavity, the monitored real-time pressure value in the cavity is sent to the distributed control system to control the valve in the second pipeline and replenish the air in the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank.

[0086] The inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank stores high-pressure saturated water and nitrogen, the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank are filled with pressurized dry air and / or nitrogen, and supporting connectors can be evenly arranged between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank. The outer wall of the outer tank body of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank can be installed with a supporting base and a thermal insulation layer.

[0087] Based on the above compressed air energy storage and heat storage device, a control method is provided. Figure 3It is a method flow chart of an embodiment of the control method provided by the present application. Although the present application provides method operation steps or device structures as shown in the following embodiments or drawings, more or fewer operation steps or module units may be included in the method or device based on routine or no creative labor. In the steps or structures where there is no necessary causal relationship logically, the execution order of these steps or the module structure of the device is not limited to the execution order or module structure described in the embodiments of the present application and shown in the drawings. When the method or module structure is applied to an actual device or terminal product, it can be connected according to the method or module structure shown in the embodiment or drawings for sequential execution or parallel execution (for example, a parallel processor or a multi-threaded processing environment, or even a distributed processing environment).

[0088] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, the above control method may include the following steps:

[0089] Step 301: Determine a compressed air energy storage stage as a target stage;

[0090] Step 302: Retrieve the control strategy corresponding to the target stage, and control the valve in the first pipeline and the valve in the second pipeline in the compressed air energy storage device to achieve air injection control of the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank and the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank.

[0100] The air pressure of the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank is continuously monitored by the first pressure monitor. When the real-time gap pressure value is less than the lower limit of the gap pressure, the real-time gap pressure value is sent to the distributed control system, and the fourth electric gate valve, the fifth electric gate valve and the sixth electric gate valve are opened in linkage with the distributed control system to inject gas into the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank through the nitrogen generated by the nitrogen production system; when the real-time gap pressure value is greater than the upper limit of the gap pressure, the first safety valve is automatically opened to deflate the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank, so as to maintain the air pressure of the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank between the lower limit of the gap pressure and the upper limit of the gap pressure;

[0101] The air pressure in the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank is continuously monitored as the real-time pressure value in the cavity by the second pressure monitor. When the real-time pressure value in the cavity is less than the lower limit value of the pressure in the cavity, the real-time pressure value in the cavity is sent to the distributed control system, and the fourth electric gate valve and the fifth electric gate valve are opened in linkage with the distributed control system to inject gas into the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank with nitrogen generated by the nitrogen production system; when the real-time pressure value in the cavity is greater than the upper limit value of the pressure in the cavity, the second safety valve is automatically opened to deflate the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank to maintain the air pressure in the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank between the lower limit value of the pressure in the cavity and the upper limit value of the pressure in the cavity.

When the computer program is executed by a processor, all the steps in the control method based on the compressed air energy storage device in the above embodiment are implemented. For example, when the processor executes the computer program, the following steps are implemented:

[0129] Step 1: Determine the stage of compressed air energy storage as the target stage;

[0130] Step 2: Retrieve the control strategy corresponding to the target stage, and control the valves in the first pipeline and the valves in the second pipeline in the compressed air energy storage device to achieve air injection control of the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank and the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank.

[0131] As can be seen from the above description, the embodiment of the present application is provided with a first pipeline, a double-layer heat storage spherical tank, a nitrogen making system, and a second pipeline. The first end of the first pipeline is connected to the pipeline after the outlet heat exchanger of the second-stage compressor of the compressed air energy storage, and the second end is connected to the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank, which is used to send the dry pressurized gas sent out by the outlet heat exchanger of the second-stage compressor into the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank as a pressurized gas source; the first end of the second pipeline is connected to the outlet of the nitrogen making system, and the second end is connected to the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank, which is used to send the nitrogen produced by the nitrogen making system as a pressure-stabilizing gas source into the inner cavity of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank; a third pipeline is connected between the second end of the first pipeline and the second end of the second pipeline, and the third pipeline is used to send the nitrogen produced by the nitrogen making system as a pressure-bearing gas source into the gap between the double-layer tank bodies of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank when the compressor of the compressed air energy storage is shut down. The above scheme solves the problem of low bearing pressure of the existing single-layer heat storage spherical tank. By setting the first pipeline, the gas of the compressor can be used to fill the gap between the double layers of the double-layer heat storage spherical tank. By setting the third pipeline, nitrogen can be used for filling when the compressor is not working, which effectively saves energy consumption, achieves the purpose of simple and efficient air energy heat storage, and reduces the implementation cost while meeting the high pressure demand.
