The nature of the calcium aluminate hydration products and its kinetics strongly depends on sulfate content and humidity. The effect of mineralisers on melt formation and viscosity is well described for calcium silicate systems, but information is still lacking for calcium aluminates. Therefore, the synergistic effect on the crystal structure and hydration mechanism of the tricalcium aluminate phase of the addition of mineralizers, i.e. Li₂O, CuO, SO₃ to the raw meal is here investigated. Co-doped calcium aluminate structures were formed during high-temperature treatment. Thermal analysis (TG–DTA and heating microscopy) was used to describe the ongoing high-temperature reaction. Resulting phase composition was dependent on the concentration of the mineralizer. While phase pure system was prepared with low mineralizer concentrations, with increasing mineralizer content the secondary phases were formed. Raman spectroscopy and XPS analysis were used to investigate the cation substitution and to help describe the cations bonding in co-doped calcium aluminate system. Prepared powders have been hydrated in a controlled manner at different temperatures (288, 298, 308 K). The resulting calorimetric data have been used to investigate the hydration kinetics and determine the rate constant of hydration reaction. First-order reaction (FOR) model was here applied for the activation energy and frequency factor calculations. The metastable and stable calcium aluminate hydrates were formed according to initial phase composition. In phase pure systems with low S content, the formation of stable and metastable hydrates was depended on the reaction temperature. Conversely, in systems with secondary phases and higher S content, the hydration mechanism resembled that which appears in calcium sulfoaluminates.</p>","PeriodicalId":678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142218289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The parabolic trough collector (PTC) is employed to capture thermal energy from the sun, which is subsequently utilized to increase the temperature of water. “Experimental and numerical” investigations are divided into two cases. Case 1: PTC with a glass cover and case 2: PTC without glass cover. Using an experimental analysis, data are collected, such as solar insolation and water outlet temperature. The collected data are utilized to analyse the thermodynamic performance of the proposed system. The first law of thermodynamics helps to quantify the system’s performance, called energy analysis, whereas the second law of thermodynamics provides qualitative performance, called exergy analysis. The maximum energy and exergy efficiency achieved by the proposed system are 69.5% and 6.15%, respectively. Simultaneously, an exergy-based sustainability analysis is proposed, which shows how effectively the fuel exergy is utilized with the proposed system. The maximum sustainability index for case 1 is 1.07, and for case 2, it is 1.08. At the end of the experimental investigation, a slight decrease in total dissolved solid (TDS) was detected, indicating that if we enhance the performance of the PTC system, by changing the reflector material and installing evacuated tubes, the quality of the water may improve.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Thermal Analysis and Calorimetry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-09-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142218290","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results showed that the mass burning rates gradually increased as pressure increased, which could be explained by different conduction thermal feedback affected by pressure. The mass burning rates of 4 cm- and 6 cm-length square pool fires were mainly dominated by conduction and convection heat feedback and were proportional to <span>({P}^{text{n}})</span>, and the exponents were 0.25 and 0.32. But the change of 2 cm-length square pool fire was barely affected by the pressure. As the pressure increasing, the flame oscillation frequency was increased, and the shapes were transformed into relatively unstable because of the enhancement of buoyancy. The color of flame was found to be bright yellow totally owing to the incandescence of soot particles. Moreover, the flame height of 2 cm-length square pool fire increased with pressure increasing and could be expressed as <span>({h}_{text{f}}/dot{m}propto {P}^{0.23})</span>, while the flame height of other pool fires decreased, which could be demonstrated as <span>({h}_{text{f}}/{dot{m}}^{2/5}propto {P}^{-0.27})</span> and <span>({h}_{text{f}}/{dot{m}}^{2/5}propto {P}^{-0.35})</span>, respectively.

Despite these advantages, ensuring their safety remains a serious challenge, as thermal runaway and subsequent thermal propagation events pose substantial risks. Various studies have been conducted on the thermal runaway of battery cells. However, research on battery shape and operating conditions is lacking. In this study, the effects of battery shape and operating conditions on the thermal runaway of lithium titanate oxide battery cells are numerically investigated. An equivalent circuit model and NREL’s four-equation model are employed for the electrochemical reactions and thermal runaway. Prismatic cells demonstrated better heat dissipation compared to cylindrical cells, resulting in a delayed onset of thermal runaway but with a higher thermal runaway temperature. Under non-operating conditions, the thermal runaway occurred 40 s later in prismatic cells, with an 83.5 K higher maximum temperature. Conversely, cylindrical cells experienced faster heat accumulation in the core, leading to an earlier onset of thermal runaway by 295 s compared to prismatic cells under operating conditions. Under operating conditions, the onset of thermal runaway was significantly accelerated. Cylindrical cells reached the thermal runaway temperature at 165 s, which is 345 s earlier than under non-operating conditions, with a peak temperature rate of 33.9 K s⁻¹, up from 17.5 K s⁻¹.
