Reactive Metals as Energy Storage and Carrier Media: Use of
The overall volumetric energy density, including the thermal energy from Equation 1 and the oxidation of the resulting hydrogen (e.g., reacted or burned with oxygen), amounts to 23.5
Experimental study of AlN powder filled high voltage molten salt
Molten salt electricity storage technology converts electricity into thermal energy and stores it in molten salt through electric heaters. When needed, the stored thermal energy
Iron Powder Passes First Industrial Test as Renewable,
Although its specific energy is a relatively poor 1.4 kWh/kg, meaning that for a given amount of energy, iron powder will take up a little bit less space than gasoline but it''ll be almost ten

Mechanochemical breakthrough unlocks cheap, safe, powdered
Australian scientists say they''ve made a "eureka moment" breakthrough in gas separation and storage that could radically reduce energy use in the petrochemical industry,
The initiation, burning and thermal decomposition of gunpowder
High-speed camera studies show that the gunpowder grains themselves burn comparatively slowly in a layer-wise fashion and suggest that the rapid propagation of the reaction from grain
Evolution of Medieval Gunpowder: Thermodynamic
Medieval gunpowder recipes of potassium nitrate (KNO3), charcoal (C), and sulfur (S8) were investigated by bomb calorimetry to determine their enthalpies of combustion and by differential scanning
4 FAQs about [Gunpowder energy storage]
How much mass does gunpowder have?
Gunpowder has 3MJ/kg 3 M J / k g or so. It means you have to add about 35% 35 % to get the right estimate for the mass of equivalent gunpowder. If you could release the energy from the batteries very quickly, the explosion could be equally devastating as the corresponding gunpowder and TNT except that batteries can't release energy this quickly.
Why do gunpowder grains burn so slowly?
High-speed camera studies show that the gunpowder grains themselves burn comparatively slowly in a layer-wise fashion and suggest that the rapid propagation of the reaction from grain to grain is due to the emission of a hot spray of molten droplets of potassium salts.
How were gunpowder recipes used in a replica cannon?
Gunpowder recipes were prepared and used in a replica cannon that was manufactured and operated according to medieval records. Post-firing residues were collected from the bomb calorimeter and the cannon in efforts to further characterize recipe energetics using DSC.
Does black gunpowder strengthen all powders?
One 15th century text notes that it strengthens all powders when it is added. (17) Indeed, as late as 1917, John Buxbaum filed a U.S. patent for mixing black gunpowder with spirits of camphor, presumably unaware that he was reinventing a medieval technique.
