Zigzag Flow Reactor for Thermochemical Energy Storage
As the world gears up for the ongoing renewable energy revolution, the temporal variability of the renewable sources remains a big headache for designing a reliable electricity grid. A multi-level energy storage infrastructure is thus necessary to maintain high, year-round dispatchability. No technology that currently exists is ideally suited to meet...

Flame-Assisted Solid Oxide Fuel Cell for Hybrid Gas Turbine Power Generation
Background An aircraft’s auxiliary power unit (APU) provides electrical and pneumatic power for such functions as lighting, ice clearing, engine starting, and cabin air conditioning. Use of dual chamber solid oxide fuel cells (DC-SOFCs) increases efficiency and reduces NOx emissions, but at the expense of lower power densities compared to conventional...
