Failure characteristics analysis of the inclined interlayer during water‐soluble cavity construction of underground salt caverns for large‐scale energy storage

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In the process of water‐soluble cavern construction of salt cavern energy storage, since the interlayer does not dissolve in water easily, sudden collapse will cause engineering accidents such as bending and damage of the inner tube of the cavern.

Multiphysics modeling of coupling compressed‐air energy storage‐thermal storage in salt caverns: An approach to insoluble sediment as heat reservoir feasibility analysis

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study investigates the feasibility of utilizing insoluble sediments in salt caverns for short‐ and long‐term thermal energy storage applications. The analysis revealed three key thermal characteristics of these sediments: (1) thermal shock resistance, (2) temperature differential compensation capability during air injection, and (3) high ...

Critical technologies in the construction of underground artificial chamber for compressed air energy storage systems

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates an artificial chamber‐based compressed air energy storage system. Excess electricity compresses air into sealed underground chambers. During demand peaks, pressurized air is heated, expanded, and drives turbines to generate power.
