In the quest for more efficient solar thermal systems, accurately determining the thermal emittance of low-emissive materials is crucial in determining the power losses. This paper describes the calorimetric method designed to precisely measure the thermal emittance of Selective Solar Absorbers (SSAs) to be used in High Vacuum Flat Plate Collectors (HVFPCs). The method’s capability is demonstrated through the successful correction of thermal emittance values for copper samples of varying sizes, including dimensions down to 49 cm2. Results highlight the method’s potential to significantly reduce measurement errors associated with small-size and/or low-emittance samples, providing a path forward to improve the design and efficiency of SSAs. This research marks a significant step in advancing solar thermal technology by enabling emittance measurements with a precision better than 0.003, which is essential for the development of high-performance solar thermal absorbers. The method has also been applied to correct the thermal emittance value of SSA measured in previous measurement campaigns, and it allows a better estimation of the SSA efficiency conversion curve.

Degradation issues correlated to microstructural changes are the main obstacles to solid oxide fuel cell and electrolyser applications, making their identification and understanding fundamental steps. Coupling experimental activities with modelling, this work analyses the state-of-the-art Ni-YSZ (Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia)/YSZ/CGO (Cerium Gadolinium Oxide)/LSCF (Lanthanum Strontium Cobalt Ferrite)-CGO-based cell after 1000 h of galvanostatic electrolysis operation at fixed temperature and high steam composition in the inlet gas. Following a multiscale approach, the system behaviour is characterized through electrochemical impedance spectra and polarization curves as well as studying microstructure evolution, with a focus on Ni-cermet functional layer in view of Ni instability detected as the main degradation cause. A comparison with a cell consisting of the same initial geometrical structure and materials but aged in fuel cell mode allows to highlight the influence of operating mode and parameters on Ni-YSZ microstructure. Ni particle size and phase fraction variations experimentally observed on the electrode surface are correlated to water content and applied polarization simulated local values. Ni uneven distribution at the electrolyte interface and particle coarsening, above all, lead to an increase in polarization loss under electrolysis and fuel cell mode, respectively, since both penalise the charge transfer reaction and migration.

In this study, innovative polyurethane (PUR)-based aerogels were developed and reinforced with silica (SiO2) particles derived from rice husk through two distinct treatments: acid digestion (AD) and sol-gel (SG). These materials address the dual challenge of valorizing agricultural by-products and improving acoustic insulation properties. Acoustic characterization using impedance tube methods revealed a homogeneous internal structure, as evidenced by the consistent absorption rates on both sides of the aerogels. PUR aerogels doped with 1 wt% SG (SiO2_SG1), 2 wt% AD (SiO2_AD2), and 1 wt% AD (SiO2_AD1) achieved the highest absorption coefficients, outperforming traditional materials at specific frequencies, while 2 wt% SG (SiO2_SG2) exhibited the lowest absorption rate. Transmission loss measurements further demonstrated that SiO2_SG1 achieved superior performance at low frequencies, while SiO2_SG2 excelled at high frequencies, highlighting the tunable acoustic behavior of these aerogels. Compared to conventional insulation materials, these aerogels combine lightweight properties, high porosity, and sustainable synthesis, offering a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative for building applications. This work demonstrates a significant step forward in the integration of bio-based resources into high-performance acoustic materials, bridging the gap between sustainability and functionality in material design.

Rhee, S. in OpenAIREAbstract To thrive in extreme conditions, organisms have evolved a diverse arsenal of adaptations that confer resilience. These species, their traits, and the mechanisms underlying them comprise a valuable resource that can be mined for numerous conceptual insights and applied objectives. One of the most dramatic adaptations to water limitation is desiccation tolerance. Understanding the mechanisms underlying desiccation tolerance has important potential implications for medicine, biotechnology, agriculture, and conservation. However, progress has been hindered by a lack of standardization across sub-disciplines, complicating the integration of data and slowing the translation of basic discoveries into practical applications. Here, we synthesize current knowledge on desiccation tolerance across evolutionary, ecological, physiological, and cellular scales to provide a roadmap for advancing desiccation tolerance research. We also address critical gaps and technical roadblocks, highlighting the need for standardized experimental practices, improved taxonomic sampling, and the development of new tools for studying biology in a dry state. We hope that this perspective can serve as a roadmap to accelerating research breakthroughs and unlocking the potential of desiccation tolerance to address global challenges related to climate change, food security, and health.

Rhee, S. in OpenAIREAbstract To thrive in extreme conditions, organisms have evolved a diverse arsenal of adaptations that confer resilience. These species, their traits, and the mechanisms underlying them comprise a valuable resource that can be mined for numerous conceptual insights and applied objectives. One of the most dramatic adaptations to water limitation is desiccation tolerance. Understanding the mechanisms underlying desiccation tolerance has important potential implications for medicine, biotechnology, agriculture, and conservation. However, progress has been hindered by a lack of standardization across sub-disciplines, complicating the integration of data and slowing the translation of basic discoveries into practical applications. Here, we synthesize current knowledge on desiccation tolerance across evolutionary, ecological, physiological, and cellular scales to provide a roadmap for advancing desiccation tolerance research. We also address critical gaps and technical roadblocks, highlighting the need for standardized experimental practices, improved taxonomic sampling, and the development of new tools for studying biology in a dry state. We hope that this perspective can serve as a roadmap to accelerating research breakthroughs and unlocking the potential of desiccation tolerance to address global challenges related to climate change, food security, and health.

Mark Huijben in OpenAIREAbstract The phonon-glass electron-crystal paradigm has guided thermoelectric research in recent years. However, the inherent conflict between atomic disorder reducing phonon conduction, and the order required to maintain high electron mobility, creates a significant challenge in material design, which has driven innovation in nanostructuring and composite materials. Here, vertically aligned nanocomposites (VANs) composed of self-assembled metallic La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 (LSMO) nanopillars in a surrounding ZnO matrix are investigated for controllable thermal conductivity. Tuning of the crystal orientation of the substrate controls the epitaxial alignment of the LSMO and ZnO phases along the horizontal and vertical interfaces. The VAN films on (111)-oriented STO substrates exhibit an increased power factor of 0.52 μW·cm−1·K−2 at 600 °C beyond ZnO films of 0.15 μW·cm−1·K−2. Detailed characterization and modeling of the thermal conductivity demonstrates a reduction of about 75% as well as anisotropic behavior for the VAN films with out-of-plane and in-plane thermal conductivities of respectively 9.2 and 1.5 W·m−1·K−1, in strong contrast to the isotropic behavior in ZnO films with a thermal conductivity of 38 W·m−1·K−1. These results show the promising strategy of VAN thin films with a nanopillar-matrix architecture to scatter phonons and to enhance the thermoelectric performance.

Jyothilakshmi; Lalitha Chinmayee H. M.; B. S. Sridhar;The present study investigates the enhancement of latent heat capacity and thermal stability in hybrid nano-enhanced solid–solid phase change materials (SS-PCMs) using Neopentyl Glycol (NPG) as the base material. The key contribution of this work lies in incorporating copper oxide (CuO) and titanium dioxide (TiO₂) nanoparticles to optimize thermal performance and ensure long-term stability. CuO (1 wt.%) and TiO₂ (0.1, 0.3, 0.5,0.7 wt%) were introduced into the matrix, and the thermal properties were systematically evaluated using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) before and after 500 thermal cycles. The optimal composition, consisting of 1 wt% CuO and 0.3 wt% TiO₂, demonstrated an initial latent heat capacity of 117 J/g, which increased to 123 J/g post-cycling, indicating exceptional thermal stability and phase retention. To further enhance predictive capabilities and reduce experimental costs, an artificial neural network (ANN) model was developed using the Keras API in Python to estimate thermal behaviour. The model achieved a high coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.9479) and a low root-mean-square error (RMSE = 2.0307), underscoring its accuracy and reliability. These findings establish the efficacy of hybrid nanoparticle incorporation in improving SS-PCMs’ thermal properties and emphasise the viability of machine learning as a robust predictive tool, mitigating the time and economic constraints associated with extensive experimental investigations.

Abstract. Wake losses are a significant source of inefficiencies in wind farm arrays, hindering the development of high-energy density wind farms offshore. Studies have demonstrated the potential of vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) to achieve high-energy density configurations due to their increased rate of wake recovery compared to their horizontal-axis counterparts. Recent works have demonstrated a wake control technique for VAWTs that utilizes blade pitch to accelerate the wake recovery, hereinafter referred to as the "vortex-generator" method. The present work is an experimental investigation of the wake topology using this control technique for the novel X-Rotor VAWT. The time-averaged wake topology of the X-rotor has been measured by stereoscopic particle-image velocimetry at three fixed-pitch conditions of the top blades, namely a pitch-in, pitch-out, and a baseline case with no pitch applied. The results demonstrate the wake recovery mechanism linked to the streamwise vorticity system of the rotor and the mechanisms that lead to a streamwise momentum recovery, where the pitched-in case injects high momentum flow from above the rotor while ejecting the wake from the sides. In contrast, the pitched-out case operates in a mirrored fashion, with high momentum flow injected into the wake from the sides while low-momentum flow is ejected out axially above the rotor. These modes of operation demonstrate a significant increase in the available power for hypothetical downstream turbines, reaching as high as a factor of 2.2 two rotor diameters downstream compared to the baseline case. The pitched-in case exhibits a higher rate of momentum recovery in the wake compared to the pitch-out configuration.
