    Numerical Study of Magnesium-Based Metal Hydride Reactor Incorporating Multi-Phase Heat Exchanger for Thermal Energy Storage System

    Metal hydride based thermal energy storage system is regarded as a promising method due to its good reversibility, low cost, and no by-product. Multi-phase heat exchange has much higher heat transfer coefficient than single-phase fluid heat exchange, thus facilitating the steam generation. In this study, a two-dimensional model of the metal hydride reactor using multi-phase heat exchange is proposed to estimate the performance and its feasibility of application in the concentrated solar power system. The results show that the velocity of the heat transfer fluid should match well with the thermal conductivity of the metal hydride bed to maintain the heat flux at a relatively constant value. The match of thermal conductivity of 3 or 5 W/(m·K) and fluid velocity of 0.0050 m/s results in the heat flux up to about 19 kW/m2, which is increased by 3 orders of magnitude than single-phase heat exchange. This study helps to facilitate the widespread application of metal hydride based thermal energy storage system in the concentrated solar power system. © 2024 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Investigation of Hydrogen Diffusion Profile of Different Metallic Materials for a Better Understanding of Hydrogen Embrittlement
    (Gazi Univ, 2023-12-01) Kapci, Mehmet Fazil; Bal, Burak
    In this study, hydrogen diffusion profiles of different metallic materials were investigated. To model hydrogen diffusion, 1D and 2D mass diffusion models were prepared in MATLAB. Iron, nickel and titanium were selected as a material of choice to represent body-centered cubic, facecentered cubic, and hexagonal closed paced crystal structures, respectively. In addition, hydrogen back diffusion profiles were also modeled after certain baking times. Current results reveal that hydrogen diffusion depth depends on the microstructure, energy barrier model, temperature, and charging time. In addition, baking can help for back diffusion of hydrogen and can be utilized as hydrogen embrittlement prevention method. Since hydrogen diffusion is very crucial step to understand and evaluate hydrogen embrittlement, current set of results constitutes an important guideline for hydrogen diffusion calculations and ideal baking time for hydrogen back diffusion for different materials. Furthermore, these results can be used to evaluate hydrogen content inside the material over expensive and hard to find experimental facilities such as, thermal desorption spectroscopy.

    An Atomistic Study on the Help Mechanism of Hydrogen Embrittlement in Pure Metal Fe
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2024-02) Hasan, Md Shahrier; Kapci, Mehmet Fazil; Bal, Burak; Koyama, Motomichi; Bayat, Hadia; Xu, Wenwu
    The Hydrogen Enhanced Localized Plasticity (HELP) mechanism is one of the most important theories explaining Hydrogen Embrittlement in metallic materials. While much research has focused on hydrogen's impact on dislocation core structure and dislocation mobility, its effect on local dislocation density and plasticity remains less explored. This study examines both aspects using two distinct atomistic simulations: one for a single edge dislocation under shear and another for a bulk model under cyclic loading, both across varying hydrogen concentrations. We find that hydrogen stabilizes the edge dislocation and exhibits a dual impact on dislocation mobility. Specifically, mobility increases below a shear load of 900 MPa but progressively decreases above this threshold. Furthermore, dislocation accumulation is notably suppressed at around 1 % hydrogen concentration. These findings offer key insights for future research on Hydrogen Embrittlement, particularly in fatigue scenarios.
