摘要

目的

在“双碳”目标及能源安全需求背景下，深地储能作为大规模储能的重要方式，其数值模拟研究对优化储能系统设计与运行至关重要。文章聚焦深地储能主要地质体（盐穴、硐室、多孔介质等）的数值模拟进展，分析不同储能场景下的关键科学问题与技术挑战。

方法

通过系统梳理国内外相关研究，从地质体特性、多场耦合模型、运行参数敏感性等维度，对储氢、储天然气及压缩空气储能的数值模拟方法与成果进行归纳，重点关注盐穴的热力学响应、硐室的结构稳定性、多孔介质的渗流特性及垫层气效应。

结果

研究表明：盐穴储能中热力-水力-机械耦合模型较传统模型精度提升；硐室充放气过程存在温度与密度分层与湿度变化；多孔介质中，垫层气的种类和地质构造的类型与特性显著影响储能性能。

结论

深地储能数值模拟需强化多场耦合机制、地质体损伤演化及长期循环可靠性研究，为枯竭油气藏等地质体的工程应用提供理论支撑，未来应聚焦多条件耦合、泄漏防控及地热能协同利用等方向。

Abstract

Objective

Against the backdrop of "dual carbon" goals and energy security demands

deep underground energy storage is a crucial approach for large-scale energy storage. Numerical simulation studies are vital for optimizing the design and operation of these systems. This paper focuses on the progress of numerical simulations for major geological storage media (salt caverns

rock caverns

and porous media)

and analyzes the key scientific issues and technical challenges in different storage scenarios.

Method

By systematically reviewing domestic and international literature

this paper summarized the numerical simulation methods and findings for hydrogen storage

natural gas storage

and compressed air energy storage from the perspectives of geological characteristics

multi-physics coupling models

and operational parameter sensitivity. Key attention was paid to the thermodynamic response of salt caverns

the structural stability of rock caverns

and the seepage characteristics and cushion gas effects in porous media.

Result

The review shows that: for salt cavern storage

thermo-hydro-mechanical (THM) coupled models offer improved accuracy over conventional models; during the charge-discharge cycles in rock caverns

thermal and density stratification

as well as humidity variations

are observed; in porous media

the type of cushion gas and the characteristics of the geological formation significantly affect storage performance.

Conclusion

Numerical simulations for deep underground energy storage require strengthening research on multi-physics coupling mechanisms

damage evolution of geological media

and long-term cyclic reliability. This will provide theoretical support for the engineering application of geological formations such as depleted oil and gas reservoirs. Future research should focus on the coupling of multiple conditions

leakage prevention and control

and the synergistic utilization of geothermal energy.
