“…In this paper, the concentration of ammonia-water is 0.8 [43,44]. From the previous studies [25,44], the value of the temperature of exhaust gas (T eg ) reveals the ability of waste recovery by the heat recovery cycle. In this paper, the compression ratio and temperature of the exhaust gas (T eg ) are the key parameters to find the different requirements for the two proposed systems to recover the heat efficiently.…”

“…This cycle employs an ammonia-water mixture as its working fluid. During the working process, the mixture splits into four streams (basic solution, working solution, rich solution and poor solution) with different concentrations to provide the flexibility of optimizing the heat recovery system [21,25]. During the charge or discharge stage, the ammonia-water mixture absorbs the heat energy from the exhaust gas with a high temperature and pressure in the evaporator to produce superheated vapor.…”

Abstract:The compressed air energy storage (CAES) system, considered as one method for peaking shaving and load-levelling of the electricity system, has excellent characteristics of energy storage and utilization. However, due to the waste heat existing in compressed air during the charge stage and exhaust gas during the discharge stage, the efficient operation of the conventional CAES system has been greatly restricted. The Kalina cycle (KC) and organic Rankine cycle (ORC) have been proven to be two worthwhile technologies to fulfill the different residual heat recovery for energy systems. To capture and reuse the waste heat from the CAES system, two systems (the CAES system combined with KC and ORC, respectively) are proposed in this paper. The sensitivity analysis shows the effect of the compression ratio and the temperature of the exhaust on the system performance: the KC-CAES system can achieve more efficient operation than the ORC-CAES system under the same temperature of exhaust gas; meanwhile, the larger compression ratio can lead to the higher efficiency for the KC-CAES system than that of ORC-CAES with the constant temperature of the exhaust gas. In addition, the evolutionary multi-objective algorithm is conducted between the thermodynamic and economic performances to find the optimal parameters of the two systems. The optimum results indicate that the solutions with an exergy efficiency of around 59.74% and 53.56% are promising for KC-CAES and ORC-CAES system practical designs, respectively.

“…Conventional exergy analysis, a powerful tool for performing such tasks, has been widely applied in evaluation of the thermodynamic performance of energy conversion processes [2,3]. For example, Gao et al [4,5] adopted conventional exergy analysis to evaluate a coal based polygeneration process, and Li et al [6] applied conventional exergy analysis to compare three typical oil shale retorting processes.…”
