Building on the growing evidence based on NMR, magnetization, neutron scattering, electron spin resonance, and specific heat that, under pressure, SrCu2(BO3)(2) has an intermediate phase between the dimer and the Neel phase, we study the competition betwee ...
High temperature heat pumps with heat sink temperatures of 100 to 160 °C have great application potential in the food, paper, and chemical industries for heat recovery and process heat generation in drying, sterilization, and evaporation processes. The pre ...
Metal–organic frameworks show both fundamental interest and great promise for applications in adsorption-based technologies, such as the separation and storage of gases. The flexibility and complexity of the molecular scaffold pose a considerable challenge ...
Several efforts have been spent in recent years to address the simulation challenges posed by the non-conventional design of Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs). One of the design specificities of MSRs is the volume heat source in the liquid fuel, which has been p ...
Thermal engineering of metal-organic frameworks for adsorption-based applications is very topical in view of their industrial potential, in particular, since heat management and thermal stability have been identified as important obstacles. Hence, a fundam ...
This paper investigates the stability of departure time choice within a population of commuters that need to pass through a bottleneck of constant capacity. It is shown that the corresponding utility function is monotonic if and only if the marginal utilit ...
The extraction of shallow geothermal energy using borehole heat exchangers (BHEs) is a promising approach for decarbonisation of the heating sector. However, a dense deployment of BHEs may lead to thermal interference between neighboring boreholes and ther ...
The binary Re1-xMox alloys, known to cover the full range of solid solutions, were successfully synthesized and their crystal structures and physical properties investigated via powder x-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and ...
Controlled melting and solidification in encapsulated phase change materials (PCMs) is of practical interest, for example, in latent heat storage applications. The choice of PCMs and the dynamic heat transfer characteristics during phase change - affecting ...
