A pressure burst feature has been designed and demonstrated for relieving potentially hazardous excess pressure within irradiation capsules used in the ORNL High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR).
The invention describes a configuration of dishwasher using thermoelectric heat pumps that can accomplish energy savings and enhanced drying performance.
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.&
Develop an innovative refrigerator having a thermoelectric cooler cascaded with a regular refrigerator compression system. the TE cooler dedicatedly controls the temperature in a freezer compartment.
Sintering additives to improve densification and microstructure control of UN provides a facile approach to producing high quality nuclear fuels.
Lean-burn natural gas (NG) engines are a preferred choice for the hard-to-electrify sectors for higher efficiency and lower NOx emissions, but methane slip can be a challenge.
When a magnetic field is applied to a type-II superconductor, it penetrates the superconductor in a thin cylindrical line known as a vortex line. Traditional methods to manipulate these vortices are limited in precision and affect a broad area.
In order to avoid the limitations and costs due to the use of monolithic components for chemical vapor deposition, we developed a modular system in which the reaction chamber can be composed of a top and bottom cone, nozzle, and in-situ reaction chambers.
Buildings are energy intensive and contribute to carbon dioxide emissions while accounting for one-third of energy consumption worldwide. Heat pump technology can assist in electrification and decarbonization efforts.
Molecular Beam Epitaxy is a traditional technique for the synthesis of thin film materials used in the semiconducting and microelectronics industry. In its essence, the MBE technique heats crucibles filled with ultra-pure atomic elements under ultra high vacuum condition
