Using the technology of spectral selectivity to integrate different solar power generators in a hybrid system is a feasible way to improve the optical-electric efficiency. This paper presents an 82-layer broadband optical interference thin-film filter matching with crystalline silicon...

A new low melting point quaternary eutectic mixture consisting of alkali nitrates and sodium nitrite was modeled by using thermodynamic principles. The eutectic temperature of the quaternary salt mixture was predicted to be 371.75K. The quaternary eutectic mixture was synthesized based on the...

Thermal management needs to be carefully considered in the lithium-ion battery module design to guarantee the temperature of batteries in operation within a narrow optimal range. This article firstly explores the thermal performance of battery module under different cell arrangement structures,...
