Here is a really interesting article on a Hydrogen Combustion Engine from AVL RACETECH, which uses water injection to help control the combustion process. It is really cool to see companies like this working on neat solutions, and getting a very impressive amount of torque out of these new generation engines. https://lnkd.in/gSBKp-A8

Alpine reveals Alpenglow Hy4 hydrogen combustion prototype at Spa. Based on a concept car first presented at the 2022 Paris Motor Show, the 340 PS Alpenglow Hy4 is powered by a turbocharged 2.0-litre in-line four-cylinder internal combustion engine fuelled by hydrogen. This is currently stored in gas form in three tanks, but Alpine plans to switch to liquid storage which it believes can be better integrated into the car and improve refuelling speeds. https://buff.ly/3USBUd4

The DNA of the QUANTRON QHM FCEV – Part 2 The hydrogen-electric QUANTRON QHM FCEV AERO sets powerful and emission-free standards for heavy-duty long-distance transportation. Thanks to the integration of all components, including the hydrogen tanks, within the frame structure (“no hydrogen backpack”), long-distance cabs are also possible. Key Features:  - QUANTRON AERO design: range increase due to intelligent resistance reduction of approx. 20%  - Internationally usable: thanks to the compliance with ISO standards the national and international interchangeability is guaranteed  - High range without emissions: up to 700 km range with 54 kg of hydrogen  - No time wasted: fast refuelling similar to diesel trucks to comply with driving and rest times Thanks to its powerful drive and long range, the QUANTRON QHM FCEV AERO can be easily integrated into daily logistics planning - so no special treatment is required in fleet planning. The changeover for drivers is just as smooth: the controls in the cab remain the same and the clear display of range and filling quantities ensure safe operation from day one. #emissionfreetransportation #hydrogen #empowerthefuture

In the last 3.5 years, our experts for Functional Coatings have carried out challenging studies by working within a #horizon2020 project designated BAT4EVER EU Project and titled “Autonomous #Polymer based Self-Healing Components for high performant LIBs”. 🔋🔋 On January 31st, 2024 at #VUB in #Brussels, the #BAT4EVER consortium came together with their sister project HIDDEN Project under the umbrella of BATTERY 2030+ initiative and proudly presented their latest results gained throughout these two projects. The joint final event was called "Self-Healing Batteries: Where are we today?". It covered the technical/scientific issues around the introduction of self-healing phenomenon into Li-based batteries and also evaluated the future of this technology in the context of #batteries. Outstanding #speakers shared their expertise on the latest developments in materials for self-healing batteries, #prototyping, modelling, manufacturing and testing in both projects. The event has concluded with a round table discussion on the usage and challenges of self-healing batteries in #industrial applications. Have a closer look at the link here or the video below: https://lnkd.in/eGHwmhxr If you want more information about the topic, you can find all presentations from the final event on the BAT4EVER-website: https://lnkd.in/e_rwpn4T Deutsches Zentrum für Luft-und Raumfahrt e.V.

VELOCITY SENSITIVE BY INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERITICS Easy to select positions of the crash system in the train rake configuration, either integrate between the pivot points of the intermediate connections and/or behind the pivot point of the coupler application. INDIVIDUAL CHARACTERITICS – Purposely MULTI-STEP CASCADE of different force/stroke to be applied depending of its position. I.e. greatly increasing of the numbers of steps giving the possibility to improve the control of the impact energy dissipation.   VELOCITY SENSITIVE - The buffers with MULTI-STEP CASCADE respond quickly to the crash speeds with which the forces are pre-compressed. This occurs without changing characteristics, i.e. similar behavior to gas-hydraulic buffers, but these buffers do not become rigid. (Gas-hydraulic buffers for coupling do not get the time for the oil to change its chambers in the event of a crash and thus naturally become rigid)   Virtually all of the impact energy is dissipated over all the buffers avoiding damaging peak forces, improve passenger safety, and minimize damage to rolling stock. I.e. STAY ON TRACK.     Additional benefits are following: REUSE – Good sustainable system, since only the dedicated units (GREEN) will be recycled and not the complete buffer/coupler. Maintenance-free service under normal operating conditions of the trains. Possible to get integrate Condition monitoring with indication of heavy impact or crash. Finally, the WEIGHT SAVING is a minimum of 30 % with high-strength steel by Strenx® and these savings can be higher, depending of the force levels.       Please connect with us and together we can work toward our common safety and sustainable goals, for further growth through Innovations. #ps2024 - BAHNVERBAND e.V.

Producing hydrogen is very energy intensive. Only 30% of electricity gets converted into hydrogen, with 70% wasted as heat. This is no way to use precious renewable energy. More efficient schemes are known but they all seem to be experimental.
