Liquid metal batteries (LMBs) are discussed today as a cheap grid scale energy storage, as
required for the deployment of fluctuating renewable energies. Built as stable density …

Generation of thermal convection flow in the liquid metal battery, a device recently proposed
as a promising solution for the problem of the short-term energy storage, is analyzed using a …

Abstract The Hall–Herault process is the only methodology applied in the industrial
production of aluminum. Energy saving has long been the focus of the aluminum industry …

We propose a new theoretical model for metal pad roll instability in idealized cylindrical
reduction cells. In addition to the usual destabilizing effects, we model viscous and Joule …

A mechanical analogy is used to analyze the interaction between the magnetic field, electric
current, and deformation of interfaces in liquid metal batteries. In the framework of a low …

Magnetohydrodynamically induced interface instability in liquid metal batteries is analyzed.
The batteries are represented by a simplified system in the form of a rectangular cell, in …

The present paper presents the experimental and numerical results of an electrically
induced flow in a cylindrical container (188 mm diameter) filled with a In–Ga–Sn alloy. The …

Recently, liquid metal batteries (LMBs) as a potentially cheap grid scale energy storage are
investigated popularly again. At present, the reason, why LMBs still cannot be promoted …

The aim of this paper is to develop a stability theory and a numerical model for three density-
stratified electrically conductive liquid layers. Using regular perturbation methods to reduce …
