摘要： Apparatus, systems, and methods use cryogenic liquids such as, for example, liquefied natural gas and liquefied air or liquefied air components to store thermal energy. The cryogenic liquids may be produced using electrically powered liquefaction methods, for example, using excess electric power during periods of over-generation on the electric grid.

摘要： A dispatchable storage combined cycle power plant comprises a combustion turbine generator, a steam power system, a heat source other than the combustion turbine generator, and a thermal energy storage system. Heat from the heat source, from the thermal energy storage system, or from the heat source and the thermal energy storage system is used to generate steam in the steam power system. Heat from the combustion turbine may be used in series with or in parallel with the thermal energy storage system and/or the heat source to generate the steam, and additionally to super heat the steam.

摘要： A combined cycle power plant comprises a combustion turbine generator, another heat source in addition to the combustion turbine generator, a steam power system, and an energy storage system. Heat from the heat source, from the energy storage system, or from the heat source and the energy storage system is used to generate steam in the steam power system. Heat from the combustion turbine generator exhaust gas may be used primarily for single phase heating of water or steam in the steam power system. Alternatively, heat from the combustion turbine generator exhaust gas may be used in parallel with the energy storage system and/or the other heat source to generate steam, and additionally to super heat steam. Both the combustion turbine generator and the steam power system may generate electricity.

摘要： Apparatus, systems, and methods store energy by liquefying a gas such as air, for example, and then recover the energy by regasifying the liquid and combusting or otherwise reacting the gas with a fuel to drive a heat engine. The process of liquefying the gas may be powered with electric power from the grid, for example, and the heat engine may be used to generate electricity. Hence, in effect these apparatus, systems, and methods may provide for storing electric power from the grid and then subsequently delivering it back to the grid.

摘要： A working fluid heating system that utilizes solar energy and fuel-fired heaters to heat the working fluid is provided. The system may have a fuel heating plant that has a first fuel-fired heater to heat a first portion of working fluid, a solar heating plant that has both a solar thermal-energy heater and a second fuel-fired heater to heat a second portion of working fluid. The first and second portions may join in a pipeline to supply heated working fluid to a facility such as an electrical generation facility, desalination facility, petrochemical facility, enhanced oil recovery facility, or air conditioning facility.

摘要： Methods and systems for generating steam using solar energy are provided here. The methods and systems can be used to generate steam of a desired quality, e.g. about 70%, or superheated steam. Some methods for producing steam of a desired quality comprise flowing water into an inlet of receiver in a linear Fresnel reflector system, wherein the receiver comprises multiple parallel tubes ti connected in parallel, and i=1,k, and irradiating each tube ti along its respective length Li with solar radiation so that solar radiation absorbed at each tube generates thermal input along its length and so that water begins to boil in at least one of the tubes at a point λi along its length. The methods comprise using one or more temperatures Ti in an economizer region of a tube ti or one or more changes in length of the tubes as input to a controller that controls mass flow of water into each of the multiple tubes, thereby controlling quality of steam exiting the receiver.

摘要： A batch crystallization system uses two stages of heat pumping. The first stage heat pump transfers latent heat of fusion from a freezing liquid to purified liquid. Sensible heat and compression work are transferred to the second stage heat pump for rejection to the environment. Ice formed in another chamber of the batch crystallization system is melted by direct contact with heated purified liquid.

摘要： An improved water purification apparatus and method includes the freeze plate of a refrigeration system disposed in contact with the surface of water to be purified for transferring heat from the water substantially only through the surface and for forming a layer of ice only near the surface that is nearly as thick as the volume of water is deep. Electrostatic field is produced to improve the rejection of impurities at the ice-water interface. System and operating parameters are described for the optimum production of purified water through recurring cycles of freezing, draining, melting, and recovering melt water in batch processing of impure water using a refrigeration system of selected heat-removing capacity.

摘要： In a cryogenic combined cycle power plant electric power drives a cryogenic refrigerator to store energy by cooling air to a liquid state for storage within tanks, followed by subsequent release of the stored energy by first pressurizing the liquid air, then regasifying the liquid air and raising the temperature of the regasified air at least in part with heat exhausted from a combustion turbine, and then expanding the heated regasified air through a hot gas expander to generate power. The expanded regasified air exhausted from the expander may be used to cool and make denser the inlet air to the combustion turbine. The combustion turbine exhaust gases may be used to drive an organic Rankine bottoming cycle. An alternative source of heat such as thermal storage, for example, may be used in place of or in addition to the combustion turbine.
