Converting energy from fusion into useful forms

, 2013
If fusion power reactors are to be feasible, it will still be necessary to convert the energy of the nuclear reaction into usable form. The heat produced will be removed from the reactor core by a primary coolant, which might be water, helium, molten ...

What Is a Good Simulant for Plutonium(III) in Molten Chloride Salts?

The Journal of Physical Chemistry B
Despite the importance of plutonium compounds in the nuclear energy industry, their properties have rarely been studied directly. This is due to the artificial character as well as the high radioactivity level of this element. Instead, simulants with close physicochemical properties are used, such as cerium(IV) or thorium(IV), for oxide fuel properties.

Active heat exchange system development for latent heat thermal energy storage [PDF]

Various active heat exchange concepts were identified from among three generic categories: scrapers, agitators/vibrators and slurries. The more practical ones were given a more detailed technical evaluation and an economic comparison with a passive tube ...

Neutron Diffraction Study of Aluminum Chloride Imidazolium Chloride Molten Salts

ECS Proceedings Volumes, 1994
The structure of molten mixtures of (AlCl{sub 3}){sub x}(1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride){sub 1-x} was investigated by neutron diffraction techniques for x=0.46, 0.50, 0.60 and 0.67. Results derived from earlier ab initio molecular orbital (6-31G* basis set) computations for AlCl{sub 4}{sup {minus}}, Al{sub 2}Cl{sub 7}{sup {minus}}, and EMI{sup +}

Molten Salt Synthesis of SrTi0.95Fe0.05O3: The Effect of Chloride Salt Type Study

Science and Technology Indonesia
Strontium titanate (SrTiO3) refers to a perovskite structure compound reported to have photocatalyst properties. It is well-known that modifying the particle morphology is found to be capable of enhancing the photocatalytic activity as it can increase the reaction sites on the solid surface.
