Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRE-HEATING COMPRESSED AIR IN ADVANCED ADIABATIC COMPRESSED AIR ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2012097737
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To provide systems and methods for capturing heat energy in a power generation system.

The system includes: a first compressor configured to exhaust a first compressed, heated air flow; a heat exchanger connected to the first compressor and configured to receive the first compressed, heated air flow and configured to transfer heat energy from the first compressed, heated air flow to an oil; at least one pump connected to the heat exchanger and configured to pump the heated oil in a closed-loop system from the heat exchanger to an insulated storage tank; a second compressor connected to the heat exchanger and configured to exhaust a second compressed, heated air flow; and an energy storage unit connected to the second compressor and configured to store heat energy from the second compressed, heated air flow.
