AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing compressed air energy storage experimental devices are difficult to simulate deep-water high-pressure environments, have limited pressure equivalent range, complex multi-mode switching structures, and insufficient pressure stability control precision, which affect the stable operation and efficiency testing of turbines.

Method used

The system employs a first water-air co-containment chamber and a second water-air co-containment chamber connected by a water pipeline. Combined with a compressor unit, an expander unit, a thermal storage system, and a reversible unit, it utilizes gas pressure to simulate deep water pressure, enabling multi-mode switching. It simulates a deep water environment through valve control and the principle of communicating vessels, simplifying the equipment structure.

Benefits of technology

Simulating water depths of over 300 meters within a limited height reduces the range of pressure fluctuations, provides a multifunctional experimental platform, improves the accuracy and efficiency of experiments, and simplifies equipment investment and control logic.
