Leistungen

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (2)

ASTERIx-CAESar public website and communication materials (logo, leaflet, poster, roll-up)

Initial dissemination and communication activities. ASTERIx-CAESar logo defined and website online.

ASTERIx-CAESar project video

Project video for maximizing project impact. It must clearly describe the project's concept, advantages and key devlopment goals, easy understandable for the broad public.

Documents, reports (4)

Process control challenges and recommended methods

System level process control challenges. Results of T3.3. The deliverabe will present the control design challenges concerning the best heat exchanger configuration of tasks T3.1 and T3.2.

Specifications of the ASTERIx-CAESar prototypes

Summarize results of T1.2. Definition of the technical specifications that must be considered for the testing and validation of the experimental prototypes. The deliverable also addresses security, transport issues and the constraints related to the modification of the already existing H2020 CAPTure facility at PSA.

Optimum low-temperature heat exchanger design (reuse heat of compression)

Design criteria and results of T3.1. This deliverable must clearly address all design challenges related to the low-temperature heat exchanger used for reuse of heat of compression (adiabatic CAES approach). It must benchmark the regenerative approach against the recuperative approach.

Optimum high-temperature heat exchanger design (solar heat input in power cycle)

Design criteria and results of T3.2. This deliverable must clearly address all design challenges related to the high-temperature heat exchanger used for heat input in the power cycle. It must benchmark the regenerative approach against the recuperative approach.
