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 ORNL invention addresses the challenge of poor mechanical properties of dry processed electrodes, improves their electrical properties, while improving their electrochemical performance.
Faults in the power grid cause many problems that can result in catastrophic failures. Real-time fault detection in the power grid system is crucial to sustain the power systems' reliability, stability, and quality.
Sintering additives to improve densification and microstructure control of UN provides a facile approach to producing high quality nuclear fuels.
Water heaters and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems collectively consume about 58% of home energy use.
This disclosure introduces an innovative tool that capitalizes on historical data concerning the carbon intensity of the grid, distinct to each electric zone.
Electrical utility substations are wired with intelligent electronic devices (IEDs), such as protective relays, power meters, and communication switches.
ORNL has developed a new hydrothermal synthesis route to generate high quality battery cathode precursors. The new route offers excellent compositional control, homogenous spherical morphologies, and an ammonia-free co-precipitation process.
Sodium-ion batteries are a promising candidate to replace lithium-ion batteries for large-scale energy storage system because of their cost and safety benefits.
Knowing the state of charge of lithium-ion batteries, used to power applications from electric vehicles to medical diagnostic equipment, is critical for long-term battery operation.
