  • For example, compressed air at 2,900 psi (~197 atm) has an energy density of 0.1 MJ/L calculated from P*deltaV. [1]
  • Pressure - N/m2 - 3000 psi = 2E7 Pa. Delta V - of 1 liter or E-3 cu meter - to 214E-3 cu meter.
  • PdeltaV=2E7*214E-3=214E4=2E6 = 4MJ for that one expanded liter, as max possible work - but this is just PdeltaV without considering real thermodynamics underneath. Ballpart ok.
  • Need to use PV-Work Calculator -https://www.geogebra.org/m/KAZHEN8c
  • See formula for energy density - [2]. This shows 50MJ/m3 = 0.05 MJ/l at 50% efficiency
  • From [3]
