The aim of this work was to operate the steam reforming of methanol and the total oxidation of methanol in a microstructured two-passage reactor. The steam reforming enables the production of hydrogen at relatively low temperatures (250 °C) with only a sma ...
We develop SOFC based on a NiO–YSZ anode support, a thin YSZ layer (5–10 micron) and a LaSrMnO3 cathode. Mn and Ni can dissolve into thin zirconia during high temperature fabrication. On cells, we consistently measured higher ohmic losses than expected fro ...
In Part 1 of this article we developed an approach for the calculation of cancer effect measures for life cycle assessment (LCA). In this article, we propose and evaluate the method for the screening of noncancer toxicological health effects. This approach ...
LENI activities in SOFC are focused on development of a new planar stack concept based on anode supported cells in collaboration with the company HTceramix SA. Modeling of repeat element, stack and systems is starting in parallel. This work presents a mode ...
Fuel Cells are electrochemical devices that are able to directly convert chemical energy to electrical energy, without any Carnot limitation. Hence, their energy efficiencies are relatively high. Among the various types of fuel cells, solid oxide fuel cell ...
L’objectif du travail entrepris est de développer un outil permettant la simulation dynamique d’un syteème de pile à combustible à haute température (SOFC). Des modèles génériques ont été développés afin de pouvoir représenter les différents composants du ...
The time of sit-stand and stand-sit transition and its duration were measured using a miniature gyroscope on the chest and a portable recorder on the waist Based on a simple model and wavelet analysis, three parameters related to postural transition, namel ...
A total of 826 temperature and shear microstructure profiles, measured during 12 days in March 1996 in Lake Neuchatel (Switzerland), are used to compare estimates of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation, determined by the Batchelor (mu T; temperature) and ...
A SOFC concept based on microtubular cells is presented. Mechanical tests and modelling show viability for fast thermal cycling in air for both zirconia and ceria electrolyte tubes. To combine advantages of both these materials, the concept includes a thin ...
High resolution data on low energy phonon branches (acoustic and soft optic) along the three principal symmetry axes in pure KTaO3 were obtained by cold neutron inelastic scattering between 10 and 80 K. Additional off-principal axis measurements were perfo ...
