Mitochondrial matrix protein LETMD1 maintains thermogenic capacity of brown adipose tissue in male mice

Johan Auwerx, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Jun Yong Kim, Xiaoxu Li

Brown adipose tissue (BAT) has abundant mitochondria with the unique capability of generating heat via uncoupled respiration. Here, Park et al. identify LETMD1 as a mitochondrial matrix protein enriched in brown adipose tissue (BAT) and reveal a crucial ro ...

Selection and Optimal Use of Nanoporous Materials for Adsorption Energy Technologies

Emanuele Piccoli

Due to the large waste of heat in the power and industrial sectors, our use of energy is inefficient. Moreover, it relies on rapidly depleting and greenhouse-gas-emitting sources such as fossil fuels. While the scarcity of energy resources is a relevant so ...

Thermal Design of a Medium Voltage Modular Multilevel Converter Cell

Drazen Dujic, Yanick Patrick Frei

This paper presents the cooling concept for a medium voltage modular multilevel converter cell. To optimize power density, the metallic enclosure is used to dissipate the heat generated by semiconductor losses, while maintaining maximum temperatures below ...

Salt Bridge Structure of Microhydrated Arginine Kinetically Trapped in the Gas Phase by Evaporative Cooling

Oleg Boyarkine, Andrei Zviagin

Aminoacids and peptides generally exhibit zwitterionic forms withsalt bridge (SB) structures in solution but charge-solvated (CS) motifsin the gas phase. Here, we report a study of non-covalent complexesof the protonated amino acid arginine, ArgH(+)(H2O)( ...

Extension of GeN-Foam to modeling of boiling water and validation against the OECD/NRC PSBT benchmark

Stefan Radman, Carlo Fiorina, Ran Zhang, Hao Qin

The OpenFOAM-based GeN-Foam solver has recently been extended to allow simulating water boiling based on a porous-medium approach. This paper describes such extension and preliminarily validates it based on the OECD/NRC PSBT benchmark. Three benchmark exer ...

Evaluation of 30 urban land surface models in the Urban-PLUMBER project: Phase 1 results

Matthias Roth, Gabriele Manoli

Accurately predicting weather and climate in cities is critical for safeguarding human health and strengthening urban resilience. Multimodel evaluations can lead to model improvements; however, there have been no major intercomparisons of urban-focussed la ...

Plasma turbulence simulations in a diverted tokamak with applied resonant magnetic perturbations

Joaquim Loizu Cisquella, Paolo Ricci, António João Caeiro Heitor Coelho, Théophile Boinnard

The first results of three-dimensional, flux-driven, electrostatic, global, two-fluid turbulence simulations of a diverted tokamak configuration with applied resonant magnetic perturbations generated by a set of saddle coils are presented. The simulations ...

Characterisation of detachment in the MAST-U Super-X divertor using multi-wavelength imaging of 2D atomic and molecular emission processes

Basil Duval, Kevin Henricus Annemarie Verhaegh, Artur Perek

In this work, we provide the first 2D spatially resolved description of radiative detachment in MAST-U Super-X L-mode divertor plasmas. The Super-X magnetic configuration was designed to achieve reduced heat- and particle loads at the divertor target compa ...

Impact of Hysteresis Losses in Hybrid (HTS-LTS) Coils for Fusion Applications

Davide Uglietti

Several conductor designs featuring High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) stacked tapes for fusion coils are being proposed. These conductors are planned to operate in time-varying magnetic field and current; thus, the estimation of AC losses is fundament ...
