Liquid lead (Pb)-and lead–bismuth eutectic (LBE)-cooled fast neutron reactors (Gen-IV
LFRs) are one of the most technologically mature fission reactor technologies, due to their …

Solar energy is a bountiful renewable energy resource: the energy in the sunlight that
reaches Earth in an hour exceeds the energy consumed by all of humanity in a year. 1 While …

This study illuminates the groundbreaking innovation and real-world utility of Latent Heat
Thermal Energy Storage (LHTES) systems, unveiling an advanced and readily deployable …

Effective heat transfer is imperative in devices with high power densities, for which thermal
interface materials (TIMs) may be used to improve heat conduction across interfaces …

Among all renewable energy sources Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems are
considered a technology that will play an important role in future energetic scenarios and …

The effect of shot peening on microstructure and corrosion of 15–15Ti austenitic steel in
liquid LBE at 550℃ was investigated. The nanocrystallization and preferential …

Three 9 wt% Cr ferrite/martensite steels (two alloyed with Si) have been exposed to oxygen-
controlled LBE at 550 and 600° C, respectively. The passivating oxide scale consists of a …

This paper reviews the research progress of LBE corrosion-resistant coatings based on the
conducted experiments in the published literature. Metallic coatings have been widely …

The review paper starts with the applications of liquid metals and then concentrates on lead
and lead–bismuth eutectic used in Gen IV nuclear reactors and accelerator-driven systems …

Energy is the driving force for automation, modernization and economic development where
