- Summary
- The analysis code, CAESCAP, was developed at the Pacific Northwest Laboratory to aid in comparing and evaluating proposed compressed-air energy-storage (CAES) cycles. Input consists of component parameters and working-fluid conditions at points along a cycle. Given these inputs the code calculates thermodynamic properties at each point and then calculates overall cycle performance. Working-fluid capabilities include steam, air, nitrogen, and parahydrogen. The CAESCAP code was used to analyze a variety of CAES cycles. The combination of straightforward input and flexible design make the code easy and inexpensive to use.
