RISDepletion Calculations for an Integral Small Molten Salt Reactor With Serpent
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The molten salt reactor (MSR) concept is among the Generation IV designs considered feasible for providing clean, safe, sustainable, and economical energy supplies to the world's population. The depletion of fuel for a ...
Deformation Behavior of Single Prismatic Battery Cell Cases and Cell Assemblies Loaded by Internal Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The safety of electrochemical energy storage system depends on the structural integrity of the call containment. Nominal values of cell case dimensions and material properties are the standard inputs for the mechanical ...
Phosphor Concentration Effects on Optothermal Characteristics of Phosphor Converted White Light-Emitting Diodes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The thermal and optical characteristics of phosphor converted white light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with different phosphor concentrations ranging from 4 wt % to 13 wt % are investigated. The light ...
Packaging of Phosphor Based High Power White LEDs: Effects of Phosphor Concentration and Packaging Configuration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Two types of packaged white light emitting diodes in which one has a flat-top (FT) emitting surface and the other is a flat-top-with-lens (FTWL) type are fabricated by using the same leadframe ...
Thermal Exchange of Glass Micro-Fibers Measured by the 3ω Technique
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, we propose an experimental setup to measure the thermal conductivity and specific heat of a single suspended glass fiber, as well as the thermal contact resistance between two glass fibers. By using optical ...
Calibration Tools for Scanning Thermal Microscopy Probes Used in Temperature Measurement Mode
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We demonstrate the functionality of a new active thermal microchip dedicated to the temperature calibration of scanning thermal microscopy (SThM) probes. The silicon micromachined device consists in a suspended thin ...
Opportunities for Joint Water–Energy Management: Sensitivity of the 2010 Western U.S. Electricity Grid Operations to Climate Oscillations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe increasing interconnectedness of energy and water systems makes it important to understand how interannual variations in water availability?and climate oscillations?could potentially impact the electric grid ...
Stabilization of Silty Clayey Dredged Material
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper compares experimental results on the stabilization of clayey dredged material (DM) using quicklime (QL), hydrated lime (HL), portland cement (PC), and Class F fly ash (FA). The DM was a clay, high-plasticity ...
