Energy Storage (L-CCES) technology
this study adopts the "no external heat input and minimal heat waste" system optimization strategy
proposing and optimizing a new type of L-CCES system. Firstly
based on the established thermodynamic model of the L-CCES system
the influence of the flow distribution ratio of heat fluid and the heat fluid to carbon dioxide flow ratio on the thermal performance of the typical L-CCES system was studied. The exergy loss distribution within the typical system was also analyzed. Building on this
an optimization strategy was implemented to address the dominant exergy loss occurring in the heat storage and exchange unit of the typical system. This strategy targeted the heat exchange uniformity of the heat fluid and
guided by practical engineering
introduced intercoolers with optimized temperature
leading to a significant improvement in energy storage efficiency. Results show that the energy storage efficiency of the typical L-CCES system is 64.65%. Its highest exergy loss occurs in the heat storage and exchange unit
accounting for 59.7% of the total. This highlights that optimizing the match between heat storage capacity and heat storage temperature is critical for improving system storage efficiency. In contrast
with the intercooling temperature optimized to 46 °C
the enhanced heat transfer uniformity in the new system reduced the exergy loss in the heat storage and exchange unit by 16.7 % compared to the typical system. Total system exergy loss decreased from 218.69 MWh to 19
8.82 MWh
increasing the energy storage efficiency to 66.80%. This study provides theoretical guidance for the optimal design of the L-CCES system.
