This diploma thesis is dedicated to a design of a reversing turbo-compressor. The thesis is divided into several parts. The introductory part includes the relevant theory and categorization of turbomachines. The second part describes the storage system the machine is designed for. A separate chapter is devoted to other examples of possible use of this machine. The next chapter provides a detail description of modes and individual parts of the machine. The most comprehensive chapter is then devoted to the design of the compressor, turbine calculation and design of integrated gearbox. The thesis also includes an annex, which contains the technical documentation.

The diploma thesis consists of a theoretical part, which deals with the description of reversing turbocharger and its components. The following part is devoted to calculating the radial-axial compressor and turbine. It also performs a calculation of gear box and characteristics of the turbine.

This diploma’s thesis analyzes the possibility of accumulation of thermal power plants in the Czech Republic. The thesis is divided into several parts. The first part describes the different types of storage power plants, the historical development of power storage for compressed air and the appropriateness of their location. The second part is devoted to the design of storage power plant for compressed air in South Moravia. In the next chapter, a calculation is made of all equipment storage power plant, including turbo-compressor, combustion chamber, combustion turbines, the volume of storage tanks and two heat exchangers. The last part is the economic analysis of the return on investment of such a project.
