Compression of air creates heat; the air is warmer after compression. Expansion removes heat. If no extra heat is added, the air will be much colder after expansion. If the heat generated during compression can be stored and used during expansion, then the efficiency of the storage improves considerably. There are several ways in which a CAES system can deal with heat. Air storage can be , diabatic, , or near-isothermal. [pdf]

What Are the Common Signs That Indicate a Hybrid Battery is Dying?Decreased Fuel Efficiency: Decreased fuel efficiency occurs when a hybrid battery is failing to hold a charge. . Warning Lights: Warning lights on the dashboard usually indicate battery problems. . Reduced Acceleration: Reduced acceleration is a common symptom of a failing hybrid battery. . Longer Charging Times: . Unusual Noises: . Overheating: . [pdf]
Instead of replacing the entire battery pack, they may be able to replace a module or two. P0A7D: Code P0A7D indicates the electronic control unit (ECU) has detected the hybrid battery pack has a low state of charge. P0A7E: Code P0A7E indicates the electronic control unit (ECU) has detected the hybrid battery pack is over temperature.
Battery pack deterioration and a stored code P0A7F could result in deactivation of the electric propulsion system. The P0A7F should be classified as severe and the conditions which contributed to its storage should be addressed with urgency.
Like any other battery, the HV battery can deteriorate over time. The battery's condition is monitored by dedicated control module, or electronic control unit (ECU). The ECU calculates the resistance (and therefore the condition) of the battery. If the ECU sees resistance has exceeded specification, it determines the battery has deteriorated.
The hybrid vehicle battery management system (HVBMS) is responsible for regulation and monitoring of the high-voltage battery pack. The HVBMS interacts with the PCM and other controllers, as required. The PCM is supplied with data from the HVBMS via the controller area network (CAN).
Battery packs can deteriorate due to normal battery operation, but can also be caused by damage from overcharging, short circuits in the battery pack (or elsewhere in the vehicle’s wiring), or abnormal temperatures caused by battery cooling system failures.
HV batteries are comprised of individual cells bundled into groups called modules. For example, in a first-generation Toyota Prius, six cells are connected in series and packaged together in a module. The modules are then connected in series to form the battery pack. The first-gen Prius has 38 modules connected in series.
