Example 1
As shown in fig. 1, this embodiment 1 provides a pumped compressed air energy storage system with an adjustable water head, which includes a pumped compressed air energy storage power generation system, an adjustable pressure compressed air system, and a heat storage system.
As shown in fig. 1, the pumped storage power generation system includes a lower reservoir 1, a reversible water-turbine generator set 2, and a gas-liquid common tank 3. The gas-liquid co-containing tank 3 is internally divided into a water chamber and a gas chamber with variable volumes by a piston sealing device 4 capable of moving up and down, and an exhaust valve 26 is arranged at the lowest water level of the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3. The bottom of the lower reservoir 1 is sequentially connected with the water chambers of the reversible water-turbine generator set 2 and the gas-liquid common tank 3 through pipelines, and first isolation valves 15 are arranged in front of and behind the reversible water-turbine generator set 2. During energy storage, the reversible water turbine generator set 2 pressurizes and conveys water in the lower reservoir 1 to a water chamber of the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3; when energy is released and power is generated, high-pressure water in the water chamber enters the reversible water turbine generator set 2 to generate power and is discharged into the lower reservoir 1.
As shown in fig. 1, the pressure-adjustable compressed air system includes the gas-liquid common tank 3, an air storage tank 6 and an air intake unit, and the maximum pressure bearing value of the gas-liquid common tank 3 and the air storage tank 6 should be greater than or equal to 4MPa. The air chamber of the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3 is communicated with the air storage tank 6 through a communicating pipe at the top, and a second isolating valve 16 is arranged at the outlet of the communicating pipe at the air chamber. The air inlet unit comprises an air inlet filtering device 8, an air compressor 9, a pressure stabilizing tank 10, a first check valve 18, a fourth isolating valve 19, a pneumatic regulating valve 20 and a fourth isolating valve 19 which are sequentially communicated through pipelines, and the fourth isolating valve 19 on the rear side of the pneumatic regulating valve 20 is communicated with a communicating pipe on the rear side of the second isolating valve 16. The air storage tank 6 is used for storing compressed air, and when the pumped storage power generation system releases energy for power generation, the compressed air is discharged from the air storage tank 6 to the air chamber of the gas-liquid common tank 3. When the reversible water-turbine generator set 2 needs to adjust output, the pressure stabilizing tank 10 and the air compressor 9 are used for inflating the air chamber of the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3 to adjust the air pressure in the air chamber, so that the function of adjusting the water head of the reversible water-turbine generator set is realized. The piston sealing device 4 plays a role in isolating compressed air and high-pressure water, and reduces air loss and air moisture content.
As shown in fig. 1, the heat storage system includes a cold water storage tank 11, a sixth isolation valve 22, a first water circulating pump 13, a second check valve 23, a sixth isolation valve 22, an air cooler 5, a sixth isolation valve 22, a hot water storage tank 12, a seventh isolation valve 24, a second water circulating pump 14, a third check valve 25, a seventh isolation valve 24, an air heater 7, and a seventh isolation valve 24, which are sequentially connected to form a circulation loop through pipes.

It should be noted that the air cooler 5 and the air heater 7 each have an inner pipe and an outer pipe, and generally, circulating water of the heat storage system circulates through one pipe, and compressed air of the pressure-adjustable compressed air system circulates through the other pipe. When the water pumping compressed air energy storage system stores energy, air in the air chamber is pressed into the air storage tank 6, heat in the air compression process is exchanged to circulating water through the air cooler 5, and the circulating water is stored in the hot water storage tank 12. When the pumped compressed air energy storage system releases energy, compressed air in the air storage tank 6 enters the air chamber, and heat in the hot water storage tank 12 is transferred to the compressed air through the air heater 7.
The embodiment 1 further provides an operation method of a water pumping compressed air energy storage system with an adjustable water head, and the operation method based on the water pumping compressed air energy storage system with the adjustable water head comprises the following steps:
(1) Preparation work:
before the system operates, firstly, the first isolating valve 15 is opened, water in the lower water reservoir 1 is injected into a water chamber of the gas-liquid common tank 3 through the reversible water turbine generator set 2, after the water chamber reaches the lowest water level, water injection is stopped, then, the air compressor 9, the fourth isolating valve 19, the pneumatic regulating valve 20, the second isolating valve 16 and the third isolating valve 17 are opened to inject compressed air into the air chambers of the air storage tank 6 and the gas-liquid common tank 3, and the air pressures in the air storage tank 6 and the air chambers reach a set value of 2MPa. Meanwhile, the first water circulation pump 13 is started to deliver the cold water in the cold water storage tank 11 to the hot water storage tank 12, and the heat of the compressed air is absorbed through the air cooler 5.
(2) Energy storage process:
when the system stores energy, water in the lower water reservoir 1 is continuously injected into the water chamber of the gas-liquid common tank 3 through the reversible water turbine generator set 2, and when the piston sealing device 4 reaches the highest water level, water injection is stopped. When the piston sealing device 4 moves up in the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3, compressed air in the continuous air chamber is injected into the air storage tank 6 through the communicating pipe at the top, the air pressure of the final air storage tank 6 reaches about 4MPa, and the final air storage pressure can be finely adjusted by the air compressor 9 and the pressure stabilizing tank 10 to reach a designed air storage pressure value. When the compressed air in the air chamber flows to the air storage tank 6, the sixth isolation valve 22 and the second check valve 23 are opened, the cold water in the cold water storage tank 11 is delivered to the hot water storage tank 12 through the first circulating water pump 13, and the heat of the compressed air is absorbed through the air cooler 5.
(3) The energy release process is as follows:
when the system releases energy, firstly, the isolating valve 17 is closed, the isolating valve 21 is opened, then the reversible water-turbine generator set 2 is started, compressed air in the air storage tank 6 continuously enters an air chamber of the gas-liquid common tank 3, and high-pressure water of about 4MPa stored in the water chamber pushes the reversible water-turbine generator set 2 to generate power and then is discharged into the lower reservoir 1. In the process that the compressed air in the air storage tank 6 enters the air chamber, the seventh isolating valve 24 and the third check valve 25 are opened, hot water in the hot water storage tank 12 is conveyed to the cold water storage tank 11 through the second circulating water pump 14, and heat is transferred to the compressed air through the air heater 7. And finally, when the piston sealing device 4 reaches the lowest water level, the energy release process is finished, and the air pressure in the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3 and the air storage tank 6 is about 2MPa.
(4) And (3) regulating a water head process:
when the system releases energy, high-pressure water of about 4MPa stored in the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3 pushes the reversible water turbine generator set 2 to generate electricity, and then the electricity is discharged into the lower reservoir 1. Meanwhile, the compressed air in the air storage tank 6 continuously enters the air chamber of the gas-liquid co-containing tank 3, and along with the downward movement of the piston sealing device 4, the air pressure in the air chamber continuously decreases, so that the water head entering the reversible water-turbine generator set 2 also continuously decreases. When the reversible water turbine generator set 2 needs to increase output or stabilize output, compressed air can be injected into the air chamber of the gas-liquid common tank 3 through the pressure stabilizing tank 10 and the pneumatic adjusting valve 20 or further opening the air compressor 9, so that the air pressure of the air chamber is maintained or increased, and the purpose of adjusting the water head is achieved.
And (5) repeating the steps (2), (3) and (4) to realize the storage and release of electric energy and heat circularly.
(5) And (3) an exhaust process:
after the system runs for a long time, the water chamber in the gas-liquid common tank may accumulate air, which may cause cavitation erosion of the reversible water-turbine generator set 2 and reduce the water storage capacity of the gas-liquid common tank 3. In order to discharge this air in time, an exhaust valve 26 is provided at the lowest water level of the accumulator 3, and when the piston seal 4 is at the lowest water level of the accumulator 3, the exhaust valve 26 is periodically opened to discharge the accumulated air.
Example 2
As shown in fig. 2, the present embodiment 2 is different from embodiment 1 in that: this embodiment 2 is provided with two gas-liquid containing tanks 3 and two gas holders 6, between gas-liquid containing tank 3 and gas-liquid containing tank 3 to and all keep interval arrangement between gas holder 6 and the gas-liquid containing tank 3, and all gas-liquid containing tanks 3 and gas holder 6 all are in same horizontal plane.
The energy storage capacity, the heat storage capacity and the system efficiency of the whole system can be improved by properly increasing the number of the gas-liquid common tank 3 and the gas storage tank 6.
According to the description and the drawings, the water pumping compressed air energy storage system with the adjustable water head and the operation method thereof can be easily manufactured or used by the skilled person, and the positive effects recorded in the invention can be produced.
The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and various modifications and changes may be made by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
