# Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Energy Storage (sCO₂ES)

[![Poetry](https://img.shields.io/endpoint?url=https://python-poetry.org/badge/v0.json)](https://python-poetry.org/)

`sco2es` is intended for modeling of energy storage for supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO₂) 

packed bed thermal energy storage systems. This work is based on the model detailed by Battisti et al.[^1].

## Performance

`sco2es` uses Numba for optimization of functions and utilizes NumPy's linear algebra routines

and SciPy's sparse linear algebra routines. For optimal performance, a version of SciPy built against a well

optimized LAPACK/BLAS library is required. Therefore, it is recommended to run this code using the 

Anaconda distribution of SciPy, which is built against Intel’s MKL[^2].
