This invention aims to develop a new feature for a heat pump water heater having a forced flow condenser, coupled with a mixing valve, and a new feature to maximize the first hour rating and provide quick response to hot water demand, comparable to a typical gas water heater.&

Diamond texture

High and ultra-high vacuum applications require seals that do not allow leaks. O-rings can break down over time, due to aging and exposure to radiation. Metallic seals can damage sealing surfaces, making replacement of the original seal very difficult.

Ice crystals

The widespread use of inexpensive salt hydrate-based phase change materials, or PCMs, has been prevented by a key technical challenge: phase separation, also known as incongruency, which results in the significant degradation of the materials' ability to store thermal energy o

ORNL scientists identified four amino acids key to signaling pathways in the PAN protein domain. Mutating any of those disrupted the signal that tells cancer cells to multiply. Credit: Andy Sproles/ORNL, U.S. Dept. of Energy

An ORNL team has developed a method for screening for an immunoregulatory protein, which includes assessing the sequence of a candidate protein to determine if it is an immunoregulatory protein when at least one plasminogen-apple-nematode (PAN) domain with a consensus sequence
