Effect of the Gas Diffusion Layer Design on the Water Management and Cell Performance of a PEM Fuel Cell
(MDPI, 2022-07)
The influence of the different properties of the gas diffusion layer (GDL) on the operation of a liquid-cooled, proton-exchange polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEMFC) has been studied in this work. Three-dimensional numerical ...

Flame confinement in biomass combustion systems for particles abatement
(Elsevier, 2022)
This work explores the use of open-pore, inert ceramic foams with different pore sizes as particle abatement systems in small biomass combustion systems. Porous foams made of silicon carbide with pore sizes 10 to ...

Experimental evaluation of the thermal degradation of solar salt under different gas covers
(Elsevier, 2023)
Commercial concentrating solar power (CSP) plants use solar salt (60–40 wt% NaNO3-KNO3) as thermal energy storage media due to its proven performance. Nevertheless, at high temperatures its decomposition can become a ...
