Thick Sputtered Tantalum Coatings for High-Temperature Energy Conversion Applications
Thick sputtered tantalum (Ta) coatings on Inconel were investigated as a potential replacement for bulk refractory metal substrates used for high-temperature emitters and absorbers in thermophotovoltaic energy conversion applications. In these applications, high-temperature stability and high reflectance of the surface in the infrared wavelength range are critical in order to sustain operationa...
متن کاملGrid-price-dependent Energy Management of a Building Supplied by a Multisource System Integrated with Hydrogen
This paper studies power management in a grid-tied hybrid energy system consisting of photovoltaic array, wind turbine, fuel cell, electrolyzer, hydrogen storage tank and a combinational heating system to supply the thermal and electrical demand of a building. Moreover, the hybrid system is capable of exchanging power with local grid. Thus, variable daily buying and selling tariffs are also tak...
متن کاملEnergy Conversion in Protocells with Natural Nanoconductors
While much nanotechnology leverages solid-state devices, here we present the analysis of designs for hybrid organic-inorganic biomimetic devices, “protocells,” based on assemblies of natural ion channels and ion pumps, “nanoconductors,” incorporated into synthetic supported lipid bilayer membranes. These protocells mimic the energy conversion scheme of natural cells and are able to directly out...
متن کاملProgress in Zinc Phosphate Conversion Coatings: A Review
Phosphating is one of the most widely used surface treatments of ferrous and non-ferrous materials due to its low-cost, easy production, good corrosion resistance and good adhesion with paint. Many researchers have tried to explore the different applications of the phosphating processes in various fields including automobile and aerospace. Recently, the zinc phosphate conversion coatings on mag...
متن کاملCellulose conversion in dry grind ethanol plants.
The expansion of the dry grind ethanol industry provides a unique opportunity to introduce cellulose conversion technology to existing grain to ethanol plants, while enhancing ethanol yields by up to 14%, and decreasing the volume while increasing protein content of distiller's grains. The technologies required are cellulose pretreatment, enzyme hydrolysis, fermentation, and drying. Laboratory ...
