Numerical assessments of the effects of injected air temperature and well configuration on the cycle performance in compressed air energy storage in aquifers (2022)
Book Chapter
Yang, L., Cai, Z., Li, C., Guo, C., & He, Q. (2023). Numerical assessments of the effects of injected air temperature and well configuration on the cycle performance in compressed air energy storage in aquifers. In J. Miocic, N. Heinemann, K. Edlmann, J. Alcalde, & R. Schultz (Eds.), Enabling Secure Subsurface Storage in Future Energy Systems. Geological Society. https://doi.org/10.1144/sp528-2022-74

Aquifers have advantages over salt caverns as the storage vessels for compressed air energy storage due to their wider availability for suitable sites and lower one-off capital investment for construction. We conducted numerical simulations for compr...

Development of a Novel Simulator for Modelling Underground Hydrogen and Gas Mixture Storage (2022)
Journal Article
Cai, Z., Zhang, K., & Guo, C. (2022). Development of a Novel Simulator for Modelling Underground Hydrogen and Gas Mixture Storage. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 47(14), 8929-8942. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2021.12.224

Underground hydrogen storage can store grid-scale energy for balancing both short-term and long-term inter-seasonal supply and demand. However, there is no numerical simulator which is dedicated to the design and optimisation of such energy storage t...
