The invention relates to a compressed air storage power plant with an electrical input / output circuit, compressor and expansion means and an artificially manufactured compressed air receiver.
In order to stop climate change, renewable energy sources should receive a higher share in the energy mix. The problem is that the energy supply of sun and wind is not at the same time as the energy demand. Economic energy storage is not available in sufficient quantity. Therefore, calorific power plants and nuclear power plants are still in use to provide "control energy". provide. There is therefore a need to increase the share of renewable energy and dependency on calorific and nuclear power plants as "control energy". or "balancing energy" to diminish.
It is known to store compressed air and heat for storing electrical energy. Compressed air storage power plants, which have been carried out so far, use geologically suitable underground cavities; They are therefore limited in the choice of location, but also in terms of maximum working pressure. More advantageous are artificially produced compressed air reservoirs, which allow a much higher working pressure. This makes the energy density higher, the construction more compact and the choice of location easier. Moreover, many previously proposed compressed air storage power plants do not or only partially store the heat generated during the compression, and therefore they must have external heat, e.g. by burning gases, so that the generator does not freeze. The efficiencies of such compressed air storage plants are therefore too low to play an important economic role in the "energy transition". to play.
EP 2 450 549 A2 describes a pressure stage heat storage power plant or energy storage method for temporary storage of energy in the form of pressure energy in 1/34 2 a compressible medium and in the form of heat energy. This technique allows for higher thermodynamic efficiency than previous methods, such as e.g. DE 2 636 417 A1, DE 2 541 501 A1, DD 118455 A1, DE 2 536 447 B2, DE 2 615 439 A1, DE 3 428 041 A1, EP 364 106 B1, US Pat. No. 4,630,436, US Pat. No. 4,523,432 and US Pat. No. 4,765,142 , This higher efficiency is to be achieved by a flexible arrangement of a plurality of compressors, a plurality of heat exchanging devices and a plurality of expansion devices, which can be connected independently by numerous pipes independently. The advantage here is to prove the possibility that the number of compression devices can not be equal to the number of expansion devices. In particular, excess energy in the form of electrical, mechanical and thermal energy should advantageously be supplied from the outside. In contrast to a comparable arrangement with only one compression stage and one expansion stage, the efficiency is to be significantly increased by the multi-stage arrangement with interposed 'heat exchangers. The expansion and compression is assumed to be an adiabatic process, the multi-stage arrangement of heat exchangers and the possibility of feeding in surplus energy from outside should minimize temperature losses or energy losses. The disadvantage here is the higher complexity of the system, which increases the cost of construction and operation. The economy of such a system is u.a. dependent on the availability of excess (heat) energy.
If possible, the present invention is intended to store the entire heat generated during the compression and to utilize it again as completely as possible during the expansion. An additional heat source is not provided. The highest possible efficiency and the most economical operation are the goals. 2/34 • ·········································································································································································································
Above all, it is an object of the invention to provide a simple and efficient design with regard to the compressor / expander design.
The core of the system is a piston machine that works both as a pump and as a generator. The "pistons" consist of an electrically and thermally very conductive liquid, such. Galinstan, the "cylinder" are communicating vessels that contain the fluid. The liquid pistons are driven inductively during pumping.
In generator mode, compressed air drives the pistons, with the pistons overcoming the resistance of an excitation voltage and performing electrical work on the coil winding terminals (in the manner of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generator). Due to the continuous circulation of the piston liquid, an advantageous heat exchange takes place between the displacement of the engine and the heat accumulator, which effectively dissipates the heat generated during the compression and prevents the icing of the generator during the expansion.
In particular, the invention accordingly provides a compressed air storage power plant as described above, which is characterized in that the compressor and expansion means comprise a piston pump whose piston is made of an electrically and thermally conductive liquid, e.g. Galinstan, and which is switchable between a pumping operation and a generator operation. For inductive driving of the conductive liquid in particular electromagnets are provided with a core and coils. The core preferably forms a closed loop, wherein the loop has a deviating from a circular shape, namely, contains two parallel straight cylinder parts around which the coils are wound. The magnetic core can be designed so that the eddy current losses are minimal and the magnetic energy is maximum, such as the fact that the core is formed of parallel insulated mumetal wires. 3/34 • # φ φ φ φ φ φ φφφφ φ • φ • φ φ φφ φ φ • φφ φφ φφ φφ φ φφφ 4
Between the magnetic core and the (exciter) coils, a gap is left open in which the conductive liquid moves up and down in the manner of a communicating vessel. It is further advantageous if a dividing wall divides the gap between the core and the coils into an inner, closer to the core gap and an outer, closer to the coil gap, wherein the partition wall at the two upper ends of the parallel core Parts ends, so that the conductive liquid can flow there from one gap into the other gap, forming a displacement.
The volume of the conductive liquid may be controllable in a cylinder frame of the piston pump, the displacement - for example, by means of a controller which is quite conventional in itself - the power consumption during compressed air storage then being constant. It is particularly advantageous here for the conductive fluid to be connected to a reservoir whose volume can be changed depending on the air pressure in the compressed air reservoir by means of a reduction pressure transducer and a hydraulic fluid, whereby the hydraulic fluid can be displaced against at least one resilient interface, e.g. a membrane presses, on the other side of which is the reservoir of the conductive liquid. The geometric arrangement for controlling the displacement, with one or more different sized membrane bodies, as well as the spring characteristic (s) of the interface (s) can accurately simulate the required non-linearity of the volume change during operation.
In generator mode, the pistons of the generator, which consist of the same thermally and electrically highly conductive liquid, are driven by the compressed air, the liquid, i. the two pistons induce in the coils a voltage which is fed to external terminals to perform the desired electrical work there. 4/34 5
The unitary machine or, more specifically, piston pump is preferably completely in a liquid, e.g. Water immersed, which acts as a heat storage. A circulating pump can continuously circulate the conductive liquid in operation in a closed circuit, wherein a heat exchange between the conductive liquid and the heat accumulator takes place.
In operation, it follows that two pistons are present in U-shaped communicating vessels and connected to each other, these pistons being formed by the conductive liquid as mentioned, and one piston alternately rises while the other piston descends, the entire piston volume is constant during a working period.
Of particular advantage, it is further, if ever an induction circulation pump below the two core parts in each half cycle from the outer gap conductive liquid periodically and synchronously sucks and inductive drives through the heat exchanger and finally pushes it back into the inner gap.
Furthermore, it is favorable if the reservoir, which regulates the volume of the conductive liquid, simultaneously acts as a heat exchanger, wherein three discus-shaped curved spaces are arranged adjacent to each other, namely a central space to which the hydraulic fluid is supplied, and on both sides thereof, by resilient Separated from him membranes, two reservoir spaces, each of a bulbous outwardly curved wall of a good thermal conductivity and high temperature resistant material, eg Borosilicate glass, exist.
It is also advantageous if the circulating pumps pump the conductive liquid at the lower end of the heat exchanger, wherein at the top of the cooled or heated in generator operation conductive liquid is returned via a pipe back into the piston pump. 5/34 6
To form the heat exchanger, it is beneficial if the conductive liquid is passed through a helical heat exchanger conduit made of a thermally conductive and high temperature resistant material, e.g. Borosilicate glass, within a heat storage, possibly the liquid heat storage is performed.
For optimal use of the thermal energy, it is also beneficial if a penstock, e.g. meandering, runs between the compressed air reservoir and the piston pump through a heat accumulator, wherein heat energy is transmitted from the compressed air into the heat storage medium or vice versa.
For compressed air control, it is advantageous if a pressure valve and a mammal valve in the form of concentric rings enclose the magnetic core. It is further favorable if the air space above the mammal valve by means of a pipeline which leads through a heat accumulator, is connected to the environment. The pipeline leads out of the heat storage at the top.
To achieve a particularly high efficiency, it is also advantageous if the compressed air reservoir and optionally the heat accumulator and the pressure pipe are surrounded by a heat-insulating layer.
In the present system or compressed air storage power plant, the noise emission is reduced, among other things, that by the surrounding heat-storing liquid, a sound insulation is obtained. Also, sound insulation is additionally achieved in that the heat-insulating layer, the heat storage, i. the heat-storing liquid, surrounds all sides. In addition, it can preferably be provided that the pipe leading to the environment is equipped on the inside with a sound-damping coating.
It is also of particular advantage if all the mechanically fixed parts, with the exception of the coils, the core and a magnetic valve control of electrically non-conductive material, e.g. Ceramic, are designed to minimize eddy current losses and Ummagnetisierungsverluste; Similarly, the suspension of the machine, 'the frame, from such an electrically non-conductive material, in particular ceramic, be made.
For voltage delivery, as mentioned, an electrical capacitor is provided, and this is preferably implemented as a plate capacitor with comb-shaped interlocking plates, which are formed by a suitable dielectric, e.g. Ceramic, glass or plastic, while keeping them at a distance, that for the capacitor, a dielectric strength of 220 kV is achieved, wherein in conjunction with the coils, a resonant frequency of 50 hertz is obtained.
The present compressed air storage power plant is simple in construction, since it has as a core only a single machine, which is also motor, compressor, expander and generator. This one machine does the same, for which nine machines are required according to EP 2 450 549 A2. The subject invention is also simpler to operate, with no components except the valves which are subject to wear. The subject invention allows (assuming that all processes are lossless) to bring the thermodynamic efficiency arbitrarily close to 100%, but at the expense of power consumption. The liquid piston with circulation of the piston fluid improves the heat transfer between the compressed air in the displacement and the surroundings of the displacement. The compression / expansion in the subject invention is not a purely adiabatic process, as in EP 2 450 549 A2, but a polytropic. By suitable fine tuning of the piston stroke as a function of the accumulator pressure (for example, by changing the total amount of piston fluid in the system or by supply / removal of hydraulic fluid 7/34 8 from / to the outside), the residence time of the compressed air in the displacement can be changed as desired. Each differential volume element of the amount of air to be compressed / expanded can be compressed / expanded not once, but n times before it is discharged into the storage or into the environment. The higher the value for n is selected, i. the longer the gas lingers in the displacement, the more often it can exchange heat with fresh, circulated piston fluid. The greater the value chosen for n, the more the polytropic characteristic of an isotherm approaches. Isothermal compression and expansion are known to equal 100% efficiency. The higher the n value chosen, the lower the energy exchange between the displacement and the environment per piston stroke, the lower the "yield". The amount of stored compressed air per piston stroke, the longer it takes until the memory is charged / discharged. At a high value for n, there is a high proportion of thermodynamic "reactive power" oscillating back and forth in the system between the pistons, or oscillating between maximum pressure energy in the gas (air) and maximum kinetic energy in the piston. The heat transfer / efficiency can also be improved by increasing the piston area in relation to the piston stroke. The present invention allows fine adjustment of some parameters to set the optimal operating point in terms of maximum efficiency. The optimal compromise between performance and efficiency is also determined by the prices on the power exchange. The invention makes it possible to adjust the respective optimal operating point in each case with changes in electricity prices.

In Fig. 1, an example of a compressed air storage power plant 100 with a function of a compressor and expander piston pump 200 is shown schematically: A heat insulating layer 1 surrounds a (artificial) compressed air reservoir 2 and a heat-storing liquid 3, which, for. consists of water. The piston pump 200 is immersed in the liquid and surrounded on all sides by this.
From an electrical point of view, there is an R-L-C series resonant circuit; see. Fig. 1A. At external terminals 4 as input and output circuit, a 220 kV AC voltage U is applied. The capacitance C is formed by a capacitor 5 disposed outside the heat-insulating layer 1. The capacitor 5 is designed as a layered plate capacitor with a dielectric strength significantly higher than 220 kV. The plates of the capacitor 5 are connected so that the poles of the capacitor 5 mesh in a comb-like manner and the dielectric fills a meandering space between the electrodes. The inductance L is formed by a coil-shaped winding 6 of the piston pump 200. The electrical resistance R is given by the mechanical work that is done in the compression of the air. The inductance L of the coil 6 and the capacitance C of the capacitor 5 are dimensioned such that the resonant frequency corresponds to the mains frequency of 50 hertz (or possibly 60 hertz, for example in the USA).
The compressed air storage power plant 100 thus operates without voltage conversion directly with 220kV AC voltage at the input / output 4, for which it is favorable if all parts, in particular the coil winding 6, are carefully double insulated and waterproof.
The compressed air flows through a pressure pipe 7 between the piston pump 200 and the compressed air reservoir 2. In order to optimize the heat exchange, the pressure pipe 7 is designed meandering within the heat accumulator 3. A 10/34 11
Pipe 8 connects the piston pump 200 with the ambient air. In order to minimize the noise emission, the pipe 8 leading to the outside can be coated on the inside with a sound-damping material. In addition, the heat storage 3 and the thermal insulation 1 at the same time act as sound insulation.
In Fig. 2, the piston pump 200, together with its peripheral components is shown schematically. A pressure transducer 9 reduces the working pressure of the compressed air (pressure pipe 7) proportional to the pressure of a hydraulic fluid 10, which passes the pressure on two diaphragm springs 11. The diaphragm springs 11 divide a disc-shaped body 12 into an inner (middle) portion 13 and two outer portions 14 (right and left of the middle portion 13).
Below two legs of the piston pump 200 are two small circulation pumps 15. These circulation pumps 15 drive a piston liquid to be described later through a heat exchanger circuit which continues the right and left legs of the piston pump 200 in a straight line down through the circulation pumps 15 leads and then branches into two lines: A branch leads from below through the outer regions 14 of the disc-shaped body 12 upwards. The other branch leads through a helical heat exchanger 16 upwards. Above the two bodies 12 and 16, the two lines or branches unite to form a line which at a lower vertex 17 of the piston pump 200 enters the center again in the latter.
In Fig. 3, the piston pump 200 is shown enlarged without peripheral components: It has a soft magnetic core 18 in the form of a cut torus, in which two parallel parts, namely cylinder parts 18A, 18B are inserted. The elevation of the core 18 shown in FIG. 3 thus has the form of a stadium. The core 18 is constructed so that eddy current losses are minimal, e.g. in the form of parallel 11/34 ······ i
Insulated mumetal wires or layered transformer sheets. The core 18 is also constructed so that the magnetic flux becomes maximum and the magnetic resistance becomes minimum, i. e.g. without joints or air gaps in the direction of the magnetic flux. The cylindrical parts 18A, 18B of the core 18 are wound with insulated wire to form the coils 6. Between the core 18 and the coils 6 is in each case an annular gap 19. The two coils 6 are connected by a U-shaped tube 20 which surrounds the magnetic core 18 concentrically. The air space 19 between the egg-shaped connected coils 6 and the core 18 is divided by a partition wall 21 in an inner, closer to the core 18 gap 22 and an outer, located closer to the bobbin gap 23; see. also Fig. 4. These two columns 22 and 23 represent two concentric communicating vessels.
Between the parallel parts 18A, 18B of the core 18 above the bobbin 6 is a switching device 24 with two servomotors 25, each driving a disc 27 via a respective planetary gear 26, see. also Fig. 5; each disc 27 carries in the center of a frusto-conical projection 28 and on the outside a thread which slides in an internal thread of the housing of the switching device 24.
A detail area (see detail VI in Fig. 3) of the piston pump 200 is shown enlarged in Fig. 6. A displacement 29 of the piston pump 200 (see Fig. 3) is closed at the top by two valves, namely a pressure valve 30 and a Mouth valve 31. Both valves 30, 31 are designed as concentric rings around the magnetic core 18. Both valves 30, 31 are held closed by the force of one spring 32 and 33, respectively. The spring 32 keeps the pressure valve 30 closed, the spring 33 keeps the mammal valve 31 closed. Both valves 30, 31 carry a plurality of annularly arranged electromagnets 34 and 35, which can open the valves 30 ^ 31 against the spring force. The electromagnets 34 open the pressure valve 30, the electromagnets 35 open the mammal valve 31. 12/34 13th
In Fig. 7, the pressure valve 30 is shown in the open position: The displacement 29 is connected to the compressed air reservoir 2, as indicated by the arrow (7), pointing to the pressure line 7, is indicated.
In Fig. 8 the mammal valve 31 is shown in the open position: The displacement 29 is connected to the ambient air (arrow (8), see the pipeline 8).
In Fig. 9, a part of the pressure valve 30 is shown in internal view or projection, so that the shape of one of the annularly arranged electromagnets 34 is visible. The viewing direction is rotated by 90 ° with respect to FIG. 6, i. radially from the inside to the outside.
In Fig. 10, a part of the mammal valve 31 is shown in projection, so that the shape of two of the annularly arranged electromagnets 35 is visible. The viewing direction is rotated by 90 ° with respect to FIG. 6, i. also radially outward.
After the above basic explanation of the design of the present compressed air storage power plant 100 will now follow a description of the operation of the compressed air storage power plant 100, resulting in further structural details.
The gap 19 between the coils 6 and the core 18 (see Fig. 3) is filled with the thermally and electrically conductive liquid, e.g. Galinstan, filled. At rest, the liquid level in both legs of the communicating tubes (corresponding to the core parts 18A, 18B) is the same.
One end of a coil 6 is connected to one end of the other coil 6 so that the two coils 6 together form a single winding around the magnetic core 18. The magnetic fluxes of the connected coils 6 through the core 18 always run in the same direction, either clockwise or counterclockwise. At the two 13/34 14
Terminals 4 (Figure 1) apply an AC voltage of 220 kV with a frequency of 50 hertz. This alternating voltage induces a magnetic field and an associated magnetic flux in the core 18 of the piston pump 200, the direction of which reverses 50 times per second, alternately clockwise and counterclockwise.
The change in the magnetic flux in the core 18 in turn induces an electrical alternating voltage running annularly around the core 18 and linked to the core 18 in the electrically conductive liquid located in gap 19. The associated electrical current in this liquid induces a magnetic field which is opposite to the magnetic field in the core 18. When the magnetic field in the core 18 is in the clockwise direction, the magnetic field generated by the electric current in the liquid runs counterclockwise and vice versa. An equal amount of Lorentz force is applied to each differential volume element of the liquid. This causes a laminar flow in the communicating vessel without vortex, whereby the liquid rises in one leg, while it lowers in the other leg. This system thus acts as a piston pump or piston machine with a liquid piston.
The resulting in the (explained below in more detail) compaction heat is dissipated thereby or the generator operation necessary heat is supplied by the fact that the piston liquid is continuously circulated during operation and driven through the heat exchanger 16. The continuous circulation of the piston fluid in a circuit prevents the same molecules from being always at the boundary between the piston and the air. The circulation of the piston liquid is achieved in that the filled with electrically conductive liquid gap 19 is divided by the concentric partition wall 21 in the two concentric columns 22, 23, see. in addition to Fig. 3 also Fig. 4. These columns 22, 23 are only at the upper end of the displacement 29 of both "piston". connected so that the piston 14/34 '·· ·· ·· ···· · ············ ·· .......... 15
Liquid from the inner gap 22 in the outer gap 23 (and vice versa) can pass. The piston volume heated in pumping mode (or cooled in generator mode) is exchanged by the circulating pump 15 in each work period (ie 50 times per second). The small circulating pump 15 works just like the large compressed air pump (see Fig. 6 to 10) by induction, only on a smaller scale. It sucks the piston liquid downwards from the outer gap 23, drives it continuously through the heat exchangers 12, 16 and then back into the inner gap 22 from below at the lower vertex 17.
After the compressed heated air has passed the opened pressure valve 30 (FIGS. 6, 7), it is guided in the pressure pipe 7 through the heat accumulator 3 so that it can release its heat. Conversely, the air flowing in from the compressed air accumulator 2 can absorb heat from the heat accumulator 3 before it relaxes and cools down in the displacement 29 of the system which then functions as a generator.
In order to keep the power consumption during pumping (charging) constant, the volume of the displacement 29 is controlled. At low working pressure (e.g., 100 bar), the piston fluid level is low, the displacement 29 thus large. At high working pressure (for example 1000 bar), the piston fluid level is high, the displacement 29 thus small. The displacement of the displacement volume is controlled by the volume regulator body 12 which is internally separated by the two diaphragm springs 11 into the central (inner) region 13 and the two outer regions 14 (see FIG. 2). The diaphragm springs 11 bulge out when the pressure rises in the central region 13. In this area 13 is the hydraulic fluid 10, the pressure of which is adjusted by means of the pressure transducer 9 proportional to the working pressure. In the outer regions 14 of the disc-shaped body 12 is the piston liquid, which is partially displaced from the regions 14 when the diaphragm springs 11 bulge and thereby reduce the volume in the region 14. If the working pressure increases, piston fluid is forced from the space 14 through the opening 17 into the gap 19 and thereby the displacement 29 is reduced. The spring characteristic and the dimensions of the diaphragm springs 11 are preferably selected so that the displacement 29 is controlled with the working pressure so that the power absorbed in the pumping operation is constant.
The system can thus work as a pump or as a generator.
In pumping operation, electrical energy is expended to perform a compression work in the displacement 29 above the
Liquid level to afford. In this case, the air trapped in the displacement 29 is compressed until the pressure is higher than the pressure in the compressed air reservoir 2. Thus, the pressure valve 30 (see Fig. 6 and 7) is opened above the piston fluid against the force of the spring 32, and the compressed air flows through the pressure pipe 7 into the compressed air reservoir 2. In pumping operation, the pressure difference alone is sufficient to open the pressure valve 30, wherein the pressure in the displacement 29 overcomes the force of the spring 32, the pressure valve 30 after the cycle closes again. While in a "cylinder" Air is compressed, fresh air is sucked from the outside in the other cylinder by the resulting negative pressure in the displacement 29 of the other cylinder, the mammal valve 31 opens against the force of the spring 33, see. Fig. 8.
In generator mode, an excitation voltage is applied externally to terminals 4. This excitation voltage can be provided by the network with which the subject compressed air storage power plant operates in a composite mode. In the event of a power failure, the excitation voltage can be generated by a stand-alone conventional system (e.g., diesel generator plus transformer). Several (e.g., eight) solenoids 34 open the pressure valve 30 by overcoming the force of the spring 32. When the voltage to the magnet 34 is switched off, the force of the spring 32 closes (lowers) the pressure valve 30 together with the force of gravity. While in a cylinder the magnets 34 open the pressure valve 30, several (eg eight) electromagnets 35 open Another cylinder, the mammal valve 31, to discharge the processed air at ambient pressure into the open (see pipe 8), by overcoming the force of the spring 33 and the mammary valve 31 to press down. When switching off the voltage to the magnet 35, the spring force closes (raises) the mammal valve 31, which thus closes.
Rectifiers (not shown) on the electromagnets 34 and 35 can each suppress a half-wave of each period of the sinusoidal AC voltage. For example, the first half cycle of each sine period is applied to the solenoid opening the right pressure valve and left mammal valve, while the second half wave of each sine period is applied to the solenoid opening the left pressure valve and the right mammal valve. The operation of opening and closing is done by raising and lowering the valves 30, 31 in synchronism with the excitation voltage 50 times per second. The incoming compressed air performs mechanical work in generator mode to overcome the electromagnetic resistance. As a result, it comes at the outer terminals 4 to a current flow, which is opposite to the local electrical excitation voltage. There is thus a voltage source that can deliver electrical power to the outside.
In generator mode, therefore, the electromagnets open the pressure valve 30 to allow compressed air from the compressed air reservoir 2 to flow into the displacement 29 of the cylinder, or lower the solenoid 35, the mammal valve 31, so that the air is blown out to ambient after the power stroke at ambient pressure.
The space 36 above the pressure valve 30 is connected depending on the mode of operation with the pressure of the compressed air reservoir 2 or the ambient pressure. 17/34 18
In order for the machine to be able to work either as a pump or as a generator, it is necessary that the air space 36 (see Fig. 6) above the pressure valve 30 optionally with the working pressure (eg 100 - 1000 bar) or with the ambient pressure (1 bar ) can be connected. In pumping operation, the air space 36 above the pressure valve 30 is connected to the working pressure in the compressed air reservoir 2. Only when the pressure in the piston, i. Displacement 29, higher, the pressure valve 30 is opened against the spring force. In generator mode, however, the air space 36 above the pressure valve 30 must be connected to the ambient pressure (pipe 8) because the electromagnet 34 would otherwise fail to lift the pressure valve 30.
The changeover between the modes is always done in two steps at the initiative of a program and controlled by the power plant control technology: First, the space 36 is separated from the space to which it was previously connected (a truncated cone body 28 closes). Thereafter, it is connected to the space 8 'or 7' (see Fig. 6) with which it was not previously connected (the other truncated cone body 28 opens). During the switching process compressed air and thus energy is lost, which is proportional to the volume of the space 36.
Therefore, this space 36 is kept as small as possible. The separation of the space 36 from the working memory 7 'and from the ambient air 8' is effected by one of the frusto-conical body 28 in the center of the corresponding disc 27 with a thread on its outside. The frusto-conical body 28 is pressed into a frusto-conical opening. This is done by a respective servomotor 25, s. Fig. 3, via a planetary gear 26 (the truncated conical closure carrying) disc 27 rotates, so that the thread on its outside in a corresponding thread on the inside of the housing of the switching device 24 slides like a screw in a- mother. The thread is in terms of number of turns, pitch, coefficient of static friction, etc. in relation to the opening of the closure designed so that the maximum working pressure against the ambient pressure is reliably sealed, in short seals the static friction and the 18/34 19
Number of turns of the external thread of the large discs 27 the maximum pressure reliably against the ambient pressure.
The reactive power remains in the system. It shuttles between capacitance and inductance. From the outside, only the equivalent resistance active power is supplied or delivered from the equivalent voltage source active power.
In order to minimize the eddy current losses and the core loss losses, all the mechanically fixed parts except the coil windings 6 and 15, the magnetic core 18 and 15 and the electromagnetic valve control (34, 35) are made of electrically non-conductive material (e.g., ceramics). This also includes not shown in the drawing mechanical support or suspension of the machine. The suspension can alternatively be made of wood and brick masonry.
The described system is a heat engine. The thermodynamic cycle is shown in Fig.ll. The individual steps are quite general:
Polytropic compression (A-B)
Isobaric compression (B-C)
Isochore pressure change (C-D)
Isobaric expansion (D-A)
The volume V is controlled at low pressure pl (= 1 bar) so that the area integral of the cycle (work per piston stroke) during the loading of the compressed air reservoir 2 in pumping operation with continuous increase in working pressure of Phmin (eg lOObar) to Phmax (eg lOOObar ) is held constant and consequently the piston pump 200 receives a constant electric power. The square that is traversed during the cycle changes its shape during the loading process, but not its surface area. At the beginning of the charging process it is wide and low (A-B-C-D), while charging it gets narrower (A'-B'-C'-D) and 19/34 ·· • * • ·· • · • · '«·
Higher, in the end it is the narrowest and highest (A " -B " -C "). -D) as shown in FIG.
During the discharge of the compressed air reservoir 2 during generator operation, the working pressure in the compressed air reservoir 2 decreases continuously. In order to keep the power constant in generator operation, the working pressure - e.g. throttled down to a fixed value (e.g., 100 bar) by means of a throttle valve, not shown in the drawing. The quadrangle that goes through the cycle in generator mode always has the same shape.
By appropriate choice of design and / or operating parameters, the heat transfer between the displacement 29 and the environment can be varied so that the polytropic compression / expansion process more or less approximates an isothermal process and thereby the efficiency of the system more or less can be improved. A higher efficiency can i.a. with a lower performance / longer charge cycles or vice versa. 20/34
