High average power lasers are currently being designed for laser fusion applications. Single beamlines with laser amplifiers should be able to deliver up to 10 kW average power at 10-Hz repetition rate. For achieving a 5 to 10 % wall-plug efficiency, this means that at least, 50 kW will ... Read More
The current general context for green production and decarbonation prompts considering alternative solutions to produce high added value byproducts from gas decomposition without producing CO2. Steam Reforming or Combustion processes, widely applied in Industry, need H2O or O2 to ... Read More
In the context of climate change mitigation, hydrogen represents a promising and versatile energy vector. Water electrolysis powered by renewable energy offers a sustainable method for hydrogen production, with efficiency gains achievable at the higher operating temperatures of Solid ... Read More
Hydrogen has the potential to be an important source of clean energy, but the development of efficient and cost-effective methods for storing hydrogen is a key challenge that needs to be addressed in order to make widespread use of hydrogen as an energy source possible. There are ... Read More
A critical element in understanding the pre-breakdown and breakdown mechanisms in gas/solid insulation systems is the triple point. This point is where two dielectric materials and a conductor intersect. Understanding these mechanisms at the triple point is crucial for designing systems ... Read More
A substantial campaign of simulations was recently launched in the Bonomi Group with the goal of improving the understanding of the multiphysics involved in high voltage equipment such as aerial power lines, insulators, surge protectors and disconnectors. The activity not only resulted ... Read More
Increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are known to be the main cause of global warming. Among the various decarbonisation strategies proposed, geological storage of CO2 is one of the most interesting options for reducing net carbon emissions to the atmosphere. ... Read More
The transportation of highly viscous oil surrounded by water annulus can be a practical option in terms of low-energy consumption and high efficiency. The stability of maintaining this type of flow can be challenging, especially with highly viscous oil. In this present study, three ... Read More
Batteries are considered a key technology for the transition to climate neutrality. There is an urgent need to improve the resource efficiency of existing technologies while transitioning to next-generation battery systems. A mechanistic battery model is a powerful tool to accelerate ... Read More
A thermo-hydraulically (TH) coupled code for modelling the water uptake of compacted bentonite has been developed and presented by (Kröhn and Fromme 2023). This code is internally called “COMSOL-VIPER” as it is based on the balance equations developed for the experimental code VIPER ... Read More
