| Abstract: | The combination of a liquid piston gas compressor and a solid metal insert can achieve a near-isothermal compression process, which can greatly contribute to improving the system efficiency of a compressed-air energy storage system. To examine the effectiveness of the insert at various pressure levels, compressions were performed in a liquid piston compressor with and without copper wire mesh inserts at three different pressures of 1, 2, and 3 bars. The use of inserts increased isothermal compression efficiencies by 8–10% from the baseline isothermal efficiencies about 83–87%, while the compromised air volume due to the inserts was minor. In addition to the solid insert-based technique analysis, a comparative study with other proven liquid-based heat transfer enhancement techniques, spray injection and aqueous foam, was performed. Not only was a quantitative analysis made comparing the isothermal efficiency values but the pros and cons of each technique's distinctive working mechanisms were also compared.
