A novel neutron far field interferometer is explored for sub-micron porosity detection in laser sintered SS316 test objects. The results shown are images and volumes of the first quantitative neutron dark-field tomography at various autocorrelation lengths

Thermal And Visual Observation Of Water And Acetone Oscillating Heat Pipes

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, David L. Jacobson, Hongbin Ma, R. A. Winholtz, Corey Wilson, Corey Borgmeyer
Identical oscillating heat pipes (OHP) charged separately with water and acetone were observed thermally and visually at varying condenser temperatures and heat inputs. Neutron radiography allowed visualization of hydrogen rich liquid water and acetone

Thick Sintered Electrode Lithium-Ion Battery Discharge Simulations: Incorporating Lithiation-Dependent Electronic Conductivity and Lithiation Gradient due to Charge Cycle

April 21, 2021
Author(s)
Daniel S. Hussey, Jacob LaManna, David L. Jacobson, Gary Koenig
In efforts to increase the energy density of lithium-ion batteries, researchers have attempted to both increase the thickness of battery electrodes and increase the relative fractions of active material. One system that has both of these attributes are
