Liquid Air Energy Storage System. Study of Air Liquefaction Characteristics Using a Concrete-Type Cool Storage Unit.

Year: 2002

Type: article

Abstract: Technical feasibility of the concrete-type cool storage unit used for the liquid air energy storage system was evaluated. The blending composition for cool storage material was selected as Portland blast furnace cement+sand+air entraining low-water agent+steel fiber. Thermal conductivity was about 20% higher than regular concrete and stainless fiber concrete. Material cost was lower than that of stainless fiber concrete. The liquefaction examination was performed for conditions assuming an actual plant with the concrete-type cool storage unit. If enough insulated treatment was given, the prospect was obtained for a stable liquefaction rate of 70% or more.
