It should be noted that water may be pumped to the surge tank 3 through the water pump 7 first, and then pumped to the energy storage tank 2 through the water pump 7; under the condition that be provided with two water pumps 7, can open two water pumps 7 simultaneously, pump water simultaneously to surge tank 3 and energy storage tank 2.
In the energy release stage: the compressed air in the energy storage tank 2 is controlled to sequentially flow into the energy release turbine 41 and the cold source using device (for example, the energy release heat exchanger 42), the energy release turbine 41 drives the first generator 43 to generate electricity, and the air flowing out of the energy release turbine 41 provides a cold source for the cold source using device (for example, the energy release heat exchanger 42); the water in the energy storage tank 2 is controlled to flow into the water turbine 51 and the water source 1 in sequence, and the water turbine 51 drives the second generator 52 to generate electricity.
Specifically, the controller controls to open the fourth control valve 64 and the fifth control valve 65, and the energy release portion of the energy storage system starts to operate: the air stored in the energy storage tank 2 and compressed to the preset pressure by the water is released and enters the energy release turbine 41 to do work; meanwhile, since the pressure of the weight of the piston 32 of the surge tank 3 and the weight of the weight 33 to the water in the surge tank 3 is equal to the preset pressure in the energy storage tank 2, after the compressed air in the energy storage tank 2 flows out, the air pressure therein can be reduced, the surge water stored in the surge tank 3 can enter the energy storage tank 2 under the pressure of the piston 32 and the weight 33, the entering amount of the surge water is substantially equal to the outflow amount of the compressed air, and thus the water pressure and the air pressure in the energy storage tank 2 can be stably released through the surge tank 3. And when the water releases energy, the stabilized water in the stabilized water tank 3 basically flows into the energy storage tank 2, and the part of water can release energy, namely the stabilized water in the stabilized water tank 3 can release energy after the pressure stabilizing effect is finished, so that the energy release efficiency is improved.
The low-temperature air after the work of the energy releasing turbine 41 enters a cold source using device (for example, an energy releasing heat exchanger 42) as a cold source for heat exchange, the air after the heat exchange is discharged to the atmosphere, and an output shaft of the energy releasing turbine 41 is connected with a first generator 43 for driving the first generator 43 to generate electricity.
After the compressed air stored in the energy storage tank 2 is exhausted, the controller controls to close the fourth control valve 64 and the fifth control valve 65 and controls to open the sixth control valve 66, the water with preset pressure stored in the energy storage tank 2 enters the energy-releasing water turbine 51 to do work, the water after doing work is discharged into the water source 1 (reservoir) to realize water circulation, and the output shaft of the energy-releasing water turbine 51 is connected with the second generator 52 and used for driving the second generator 52 to generate electricity, so that the circulation is completed and the energy release is realized.
If the pressure stabilizing tank 3 is not arranged, the energy release is completed when the difference between the air pressure of the high-pressure air in the energy storage tank 2 and the atmospheric pressure is at most, namely the pressure in the energy storage tank 2 is reduced to the atmospheric pressure; in the application, the pressure in the energy storage tank 2 is always kept higher than the atmospheric pressure through the pressure stabilizing tank 3, so that high-pressure air and water can completely flow out to release energy; but also the water in the surge tank 3 can release energy.
Finally, the controller may control the seventh control valve 67 to open to allow air to enter the energy storage tank 2 in preparation for the next energy storage.
In the case where a plurality of hydraulic turbines 51 connected in series are provided, water having a preset pressure stored in the energy storage tank 2 sequentially enters the plurality of hydraulic turbines 51 to perform work, so as to improve energy release efficiency.
It should be noted that the control valve is normally closed, and is controlled to be opened when it is needed to operate, and the control valve that is not opened is closed.
It should be noted that although the steps of the control method of the energy storage system of the present disclosure are depicted in the drawings in a particular order, this does not require or imply that the steps must be performed in this particular order or that all of the depicted steps must be performed to achieve the desired results. Additionally or alternatively, certain steps may be omitted, multiple steps combined into one step execution, and/or one step broken down into multiple step executions, etc.
