In various embodiments, heat is exchanged with a gas being compressed or expanded within an energy storage and recovery system without the use of flexible hoses.
1. A compressed gas energy storage and recovery system comprising: a cylinder assembly comprising (i) a first compartment, (ii) a second compartment, (iii) a piston, slidably disposed within the cylinder assembly, separating the compartments, and (iv) a piston rod coupled to the piston and extending
1. A compressed gas energy storage and recovery system comprising: a cylinder assembly comprising (i) a first compartment, (ii) a second compartment, (iii) a piston, slidably disposed within the cylinder assembly, separating the compartments, and (iv) a piston rod coupled to the piston and extending outside the first compartment, the piston rod comprising a cavity (a) in fluid communication with the second compartment and (b) not fluidly connected to the first compartment;a compressed-gas storage reservoir;valving, selectively fluidly connecting the compressed-gas storage reservoir to the cylinder assembly, for admitting compressed gas into the second compartment for expansion or exhausting compressed gas from the second compartment after compression;a vent to atmosphere;valving, selectively fluidly connecting the vent to the cylinder assembly, for admitting gas into the second compartment for compression or exhausting expanded gas from the second compartment after expansion;a mechanism for introducing heat-exchange fluid within the second compartment; anda tube, configured for non-flexure and disposed at least partially within the cavity and in fluid communication with the mechanism, for facilitating recirculation of heat-exchange fluid from the second compartment to the cavity, from the cavity to the tube, from the tube to the mechanism, and from the mechanism to the second compartment. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein the tube is substantially rigid. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the tube extends outside the second compartment. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the tube is coaxially disposed within the cavity. 5. The system of claim 1, wherein the tube comprises an internal pump. 6. The system of claim 5, wherein the internal pump comprises at least one of a submersible bore pump, an axial flow pump, or an in-line-type pump. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein the tube comprises a substantially hollow cylinder. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein the mechanism comprises a spray head. 9. The system of claim 8, wherein the spray head is annular and disposed around the tube. 10. The system of claim 1, further comprising a heat exchanger and an external circulation apparatus for circulating heat-exchange fluid from the second compartment through the heat exchanger and back to the second compartment. 11. The system of claim 1, further comprising a heat exchanger, the tube comprising an internal pump for circulating heat-exchange fluid from the second compartment through the heat exchanger and back to the second compartment. 12. The system of claim 1, wherein the tube is configured to remain stationary notwithstanding movement of the piston and piston rod during expansion or compression of a gas in the second compartment. 13. The system of claim 1, wherein the heat-exchange fluid comprises water. 14. A method for energy storage and recovery utilizing a cylinder assembly comprising (i) a first compartment, (ii) a second compartment, (iii) a piston, slidably disposed within the cylinder assembly, separating the compartments, and (iv) a piston rod coupled to the piston and extending outside the first compartment, the piston rod comprising a cavity (a) in fluid communication with the second compartment and (b) not fluidly connected to the first compartment, the method comprising: at least one of: (a) admitting compressed gas from a source of compressed gas into the second compartment,expanding the compressed gas within the second compartment,introducing heat-exchange fluid into the second compartment during expansion of the compressed gas,recirculating heat-exchange fluid (i) from the second compartment to the cavity, (ii) from the cavity to a tube, the tube being configured for non-flexure and disposed at least partially within the cavity, (iii) from the tube to the exterior of the second compartment, and (iv) into the second compartment, andventing expanded gas to ambient atmosphere; or(b) admitting gas from a vent to atmosphere into the second compartment,compressing the gas within the second compartment,introducing heat-exchange fluid into the second compartment during compression of the gas,recirculating heat-exchange fluid (i) from the second compartment to the cavity, (ii) from the cavity to a tube, the tube being configured for non-flexure and disposed at least partially within the cavity, (iii) from the tube to the exterior of the second compartment, and (iv) into the second compartment, andstoring compressed gas within a compressed-gas storage reservoir. 15. The method of claim 14, further comprising thermally conditioning the heat-exchange fluid before it recirculates back to the second compartment.
