Compressed air energy storage is an energy storage technology with strong potential to play a significant role in balancing energy on transmission networks, owing to its use of mature technologies and low cost per unit of storage capacity. Adiabatic... Read More about Lowering the cost of large-scale energy storage: high temperature adiabatic compressed air energy storage.

Gas-to-gas heat exchanger design for high performance thermal energy storage (2017)
Journal Article
Cardenas, B., Garvey, S. D., Kantharaj, B., & Simpson, M. (2017). Gas-to-gas heat exchanger design for high performance thermal energy storage. Journal of Energy Storage, 14(2), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.est.2017.03.004

The mathematical modelling and optimization of a gas-to-gas heat exchanger with a non-constant cross sectional area is presented. The design of the cross sectional area of the heat exchanger analyzed is based on an hexagonal mesh, which would be high...
