Résumé

Traditional building air conditioning uses electricity or thermal energy to drive the refrigeration cycle. The energy released by the expansion of compressed air can also be used for driving the refrigeration cycle. Moreover, the expanded low-temperature air can be used in the air conditioning system too. In this paper, three forms of CO2 air conditioning systems driven by novel reciprocating piston compressed air engines were designed, namely EAGC (Exhaust Air for Gas Cooler), EAS (Exhaust Air for Sub-cooler), and EASC (Exhaust Air for Space Cooling), to analyze the performance and economics of CO2 air conditioning systems combined with compressed air energy storage technology. Twenty-seven typical cities were selected in different climate regions in China to evaluate the systems' performance and running cost under outdoor temperature changes and different electricity prices. The results show that compared with the electricity-driven CO2 air conditioning system, the three systems can greatly improve the system COP (Coefficient of Performance) but still cannot reach the performance level of the conventional freon refrigeration systems. However, in cities like Beijing and Shanghai with the large peak-to-valley electricity price difference, EASC system compared to the electricity-driven R410A air conditioning system running costs are lower, the average running cost per hour can be saved 11.96% and 16.35%, respectively. This means that the CO2 air conditioning system with compressed air energy storage technology has a certain economic application value and can be popularized on reasonable occasions. This innovative system design can help solve the contradiction between supply and demand of building energy, realize leisure energy consumption, and reduce the economic cost of energy consumption on the demand side.
