New demands in electric vehicles have resulted in design changes for the power electronic components such as the capacitor to incur lower volume, higher operating temperatures, and dielectric properties (high dielectric permittivity and high electrical breakdown strengths).
Fiberglass, semi-structural insulation for recycled glass fiber and using a low cost silicon with pultruded rods, either fiberglass and a low cost resin, polyester for pultruded rods. It will reduce the use of wood, which is flammable, and still be structural.
Through the use of splicing methods, joining two different fiber types in the tow stage of the process enables great benefits to the strength of the material change.
As additive manufacturing technologies advance and 3D-printers get larger, there is a constant need for larger extruders with higher throughput to construct larger objects at reasonable time.
Spherical powders applied to nuclear targetry for isotope production will allow for enhanced heat transfer properties, tailored thermal conductivity and minimize time required for target fabrication and post processing.
ORNL will develop an advanced high-performing RTG using a novel radioisotope heat source.
ORNL researchers have developed a new method for producing thermoset foam insulation with improved processing and installation outcomes.
