摘要： Embodiments are directed to compressed gas storage units exhibiting one or more safety features. Particular embodiments employ a pressure relief mechanism to rapidly yet safely vent the contents of the tank in the event of a fire. The mechanism may comprise an internally piloted relief valve in communication with temperature-sensitive element(s) present along the tank dimensions. Under high temperature conditions indicative of a fire, the element communicates a signal to open the internally piloted relief valve. In some embodiments the element is configured to communicate a heat signal (e.g., by thermal conduction). In certain embodiments the element is configured to communicate a pressure change signal (e.g., pneumatic, hydraulic). In other embodiments the element may communicate different signal types, such as electric (e.g., thermoelectric) or mechanical (e.g., shear or tension forces). Also disclosed is a module incorporating a plurality of tanks to offer enhanced storage capacity.

摘要： An energy storage and recovery system employs air compressed utilizing power from an operating wind turbine. This compressed air is stored within one or more chambers of a structure supporting the wind turbine above the ground. By functioning as both a physical support and as a vessel for storing compressed air, the relative contribution of the support structure to the overall cost of the energy storage and recovery system may be reduced, thereby improving economic realization for the combined turbine/support apparatus. In certain embodiments, expansion forces of the compressed air stored within the chamber, may be relied upon to augment the physical stability of a support structure, further reducing material costs of the support structure.

摘要： Embodiments relate to architectures for pumps responsible for introducing liquid into cylinders reversibly configurable to perform gas compression or expansion. Particular embodiments maintain liquid flow rates in the face of the different pressure profiles (?-P) encountered during various portions of gas compression and gas expansion cycles. In some embodiments, the pump comprises multiple pumping elements per cylinder, at least one pumping element separable with a clutch and designed to spray/not spray during portions of compression/expansion cycles. Embodiments may employ phase difference(s) between the multiple pumping elements to introduce liquid in a desired manner. Mechanisms allowing adjustment in phase of multiple pumping elements, are also disclosed. The liquid may be introduced through sprayers arranged in rings in the cylinder, with rings (or partitions thereof) dedicated to spraying during different portions of compression and/or expansion. Embodiments may flow liquid to a gas compression/expansion cylinder via an intervening chamber of changeable volume.
