🔬 A recent study in JTAC offers insights into hydrogen storage materials. Researchers investigated how adding nickel to magnesium hydride (MgH₂) affects its hydrogen release behavior. They found that incorporating Ni and refining particle size significantly lowers the temperature at which hydrogen is released, offering a promising strategy to improve its performance for solid-state hydrogen storage applications. 🚀

🔬 A new study in JTAC demonstrates how solar air heaters, generally having low thermal performance, could be optimized by spiral baffles to dramatically boost their efficiency across seasons. The modified design achieved up to ca. 21% higher useful heat gain in summer and ca. 12% in winter, with ca. 35% (summer) and ca. 21% (winter) lower absorber-plate temperature, leading to peak thermal efficiencies of ca. 67% in summer and ca. 56% in winter. The authors also show long-term economic and environmental benefits, with substantial CO₂ mitigation and positive exergo-economic performance over decades.
