Ball Lightning–Aerosol Electrochemical Power Source or A Cloud of Batteries
Despite numerous attempts, an adequate theoretical and experimental simulation of ball lightning still remains incomplete. According to the model proposed here, the processes of electrochemical oxidation within separate aerosol particles are the basis for this phenomenon, and ball lightning is a cloud of composite nano or submicron particles, where each particle is a spontaneously formed nanoba...
متن کاملBatteries and electrochemical capacitors
solar and wind power, offers enormous potential for meeting future energy demands. But access to solar and wind energy is intermittent, whereas electricity must be reliably available for 24 hours a day: Even second-to-second fluctuations can cause major disruptions that cost tens of billions of dollars annually. Electrical energy storage devices will therefore be critical for effectively leveli...
متن کاملBatteries and Electrochemical Capacitors
The invention of the battery can be attributed to Alessandro Volta (1745-1827) of Como, Italy, who in 1800 described an assembly consisting of plates of two different metals, such as Zn and Cu, placed alternately in a stack-like fashion separated by paper soaked in an aqueous solution, such as brine or vinegar. As discovered by Volta, this contraption was capable of producing an electrical shoc...
متن کاملElectrochemical Control of Lithium-Ion Batteries
Batteries help advance technologies ranging from portable electronics to renewable power systems and environmentally friendly vehicles. One such technology is the hybrid electric vehicle (HEV), which uses a battery and an electric motor in conjunction with a combustion engine to increase fuel effi ciency. For HEV applications, nickel metal hydride (Ni-MH) battery chemistry is presently the norm...
متن کاملSecondary Batteries: Lead Acid Battery Thermal Runaway Chapter Heading for Encyclopedia of Electrochemical Power Sources
The thermal runaway effect observed in sealed lead acid batteries is reviewed and reassessed as a means for understanding the effect at a more fundamental level. It is to be noted that a popular explanation for the heat generated when a sealed cell is overcharged is that the oxygen recombination taking place at the negative electrode is an exothermic process. Although it is a fact that this rec...
