Diffusion Behaviors of Hydrogen Isotopes in Incoloy 800H: A First-Principles Study by Hongyu Chen, Hong Li, Chuan Li, Jianzhu Cao, Chao Fang

“…The diffusion activation energies of hydrogen (H), deuterium (D), and tritium (T) in Incoloy 800H are investigated by first-principles calculations with the same approximate value of Q=0.757 eV; the diffusion coefficient frequency factors are also obtained with values of D0=1.56×10-6, 1.10×10-6, and 8.99×10-7 (m2/s) for H, D, and T, respectively. Furthermore, the theoretical results are compared with the experimental data, and it is found that both are in agreement with each other. …”

Effect of Coolant Inlet Mode on Heat Transfer Characteristics of a Twin-web Turbine Disc Cavity by Y. T. Guo, S. F. Wang, W. J. Shen

“…In this paper, the flow and heat transfer characteristics of two twin-web turbine disc systems, featuring distinct coolant inlet modes, are investigated through theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. The research results show that the central inlet mode leads to an uneven coolant distribution, a high convective heat transfer coefficient, and a high Nusselt number in the rotor–stator cavity. …”

Effects of Nanofilled Particle Forms and Dispersion Modes on Properties of Carbon-Based Energy Storage Composites by Jia Yu, Hui Li, Li Kong, Hongji Zhu, Qingshan Zhu, Haoqing Wang

“…Under the same mass fraction, compared with the thermal conductivity enhancement effect of SiO2 composites, the thermal conductivity increase effects of CNTs and GNP composites are 6.7 and 15.8 times the thermal conductivity increase of SiO2 composites, respectively. The comparison of theoretical and experimental values shows that different nanoparticle forms and dispersion modes have different effects on the performance of carbon-based energy storage composites, among which GNPs have the greatest improvement in the thermal conductivity of carbon-based composites.…”
