What is a buoyancy storage system?
The niche for the operation of the system is to store energy in weekly cycles in synchrony with a battery system storing energy in daily cycles, or to compress hydrogen in an efficient way. The design of the buoyancy storage recipient must consider the high underwater pressures.
Can buoyancy energy storage technology (best) fill the energy gap?
There is currently no viable technology in the market that offers affordable weekly energy storage in the ocean, coastal areas, or islands without mountains. This paper argues that this gap can be filled with Buoyancy Energy Storage Technology (BEST).
Why do we use buoyancy forces in energy storage applications?
This is a major motivation to utilize buoyancy forces and the work resulting from their linear motion (remember that work [J] = force × distance) in energy storage applications. A free-body diagram of a generic buoy geometry is shown in Fig. 8.3. The buoy is selected as a streamlined truncated cone to reduce drag forces during operation.
How efficient is a buoyancy system?
This reduces the skin friction component of the experimental drag coefficient. A maximum theoretical efficiency value for the discharge of the buoyancy system is found to be around 36% at the terminal ascension velocity of 1.5 m/s. Of course, these results are for a small-scale experimental system where the depths could reach few tens of meters.
