To evaluate the operational performance of various systems, parameters such as round-trip efficiency (η RTE), energy efficiency (η E), exergy efficiency (η X), and energy storage density (ESD) are typically used as evaluation indicators. They are defined separately as follows:

2. Calculation of hydraulic and shaft power How to calculate the pump hydraulic power ? The hydraulic pump power calculation is done thanks to the pump flowrate, the pump head and the density of the fluid being pump. Pump power
The rapid escalation in global energy demand has raised alarms regarding potential struggles in energy supply, the depletion of energy resources, and irreversible environmental impacts,
It can be expressed by the following formula: Heat exchanger heat transfer efficiency/% 90 [2] Air storage pressure/kPa: 10132.5 [8] Pressure/expansion ratio of each stage:
Calculating Overall Efficiency for Hydraulic Pumps. Overall efficiency for a hydraulic pump is simply the product of volumetric and mechanical/hydraulic efficiency. So continuing with the above example, the
The presented CAST energy efficiency indicators are used to justify the storage of compressed air energy on a small scale. Small-scale compressed air storage in CASTs is currently important and relevant due to

The possibility of using a hydraulic ram pump (HRP) as a means of utilizing its energy to produce high head for pump has been investigated. The flow at the delivery pipe and that at the
The term irrigation efficiency expresses the performance of a complete irrigation system or components of the system. Irrigation efficiency is defined as the ratio between the amount of
The energy storage capacity of designed CAES system is about 2 kW. The system contains a hydraulic pump unit, expansion–compression liquid pistons, valves, a tank, and a control unit. The aim of the designed system is
Hence, hydraulic compressed air energy storage technology has been proposed, which combines the advantages of pumped storage and compressed air energy storage technologies. This technology offers promising applications and thus has garnered considerable attention in the energy storage field.
For a gravity hydraulic energy storage system, the energy storage density is low and can be improved using CAES technology . As shown in Fig. 25, Berrada et al. introduced CAES equipment into a gravity hydraulic energy storage system and proposed a GCAHPTS system.
As an alternative to pumped hydro storage, compressed air energy storage (CAES), with its high reliability, economic feasibility, and low environmental impact, is a promising method of energy storage [2, 3]. The idea of storage plants based on compressed air is not new.
Chen. et al. designed and analysed a pumped hydro compressed air energy storage system (PH-CAES) and determined that the PH-CAES was capable of operating under near-isothermal conditions, with the polytrophic exponent of air = 1.07 and 1.03 for power generation and energy storage, respectively, and a roundtrip efficiency of 51%.
The system combines constant-pressure air storage and hydraulic energy storage, as shown in Figure 14. During the charging process, the water in an air storage vessel (left) is transferred to a hydraulic accumulator (right) by a pump to maintain a constant pressure of air storage, consuming power.
Hydraulic energy storage in the system has many advantages over the conventional CAES system, including quick start-up, the ability to provide “spinning reserve,” and voltage and frequency regulation to stabilize the associated power grid [35, 36].
