Fabrication of precipitation-hardened aluminum microchannel cooling plates for adsorption-based hydrogen storage systems

Creator:

Pawar, Supriya V.

Abstract:

The need for clean and renewable fuel such as hydrogen is driven by a growing worldwide population and increasing air pollution from fossil fuels. One of the major barriers for the use of hydrogen in automotive industry is the storage of hydrogen. Physisorption is the most promising storage technique due...

Laser keyhole welding for microlaminating a high-temperature microchannel array

Creator:

Lajevardi, Babak

Abstract:

Microchannel process technology (MPT) components are chemical unit operations which exploit highly-parallel arrays of microchannels to process large fluid volumes for portable and distributed applications. Microchannel heat exchangers (MCHXs) have demonstrated 3 to 5 times higher heat fluxes when compared to conventional heat exchangers resulting in proportionate reductions in size...
