Development of microdevices for the in-plane thermoelectric characterization of deposited films

Stefano Mischler

Measuring the thermoelectric transport properties of a material is a prerequisite to determining its usefulness for application in waste heat recovery or cooling and the basis for devising improvement strategies. While well-established characterization met ...

Degradation analysis of commercial interconnect materials for solid oxide fuel cells in stacks operated up to 18000 hours

Jan Van Herle, Manuel Bianco

Despite being a mature technology, solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) devices are still limited by lifetime issues. In SOFC stacks, cell/interconnect interaction is the main responsible for voltage degradation at the oxygen electrode side. Corrosion and chromium ...

LTS and HTS high current conductor development for DEMO

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Davide Uglietti

The large size of the magnets for DEMO calls for very large operating current in the forced flow conductor. A plain extrapolation from the superconductors in use for ITER is not adequate to fulfill the technical and cost requirements. The proposed DEMO TF ...
