Complex Bend II

Abstract

We present a new optics solution for the Complex Bend, which offers to substantially reduce the device length by removing the dipole poles. The bending is now realized by shifting the quadrupole poles along the horizontal axis. The ring optics can be stable if a specific condition on the relationship between the shifts of focusing and defocusing poles is satisfied. This condition is described in Section 2 of this Tech note. Section 1 describes general analysis of beam transport in a shifted quadrupole. Section 3 presents a set of parameters for such a ring, assuming that a single cell of the Complex Bend consists of 2 Combined Function dipoles. Section 4 describes more realistic model of a single cell constructed with two quadrupoles shifted off their reference trajectory. Section 5 is dedicated to calculations of synchrotron radiation from Complex Bend poles. Throughout this preprint we will call the QF-D-B-D-QD-D-B-D version as Complex Bend I (CBI) and the QF-D-QD-D version as Complex Bend II (CBII).

Cyclic moisture reactivation of calcium sorbents for long duration thermochemical energy storage

The transition to a flexible and reliable energy infrastructure, using electro-thermal energy generation technologies such as geothermal, concentrated solar power, and nuclear, usually demands simultaneous advancement of thermal energy storage (TES) to support on-demand electricity generation and industrial applications while mitigating the inherent intermittency of renewable energy sources and power outages from direct energy generation. Among TES technologies, thermochemical energy storage (TCES) based on calcium looping emerges as a compelling high-power energy storage candidate due to its high reaction enthalpy, compatibility with elevated operating temperatures, and abundance of low-cost materials. However, the long-term durability of calcium-based sorbents for TCES is hindered by surface sintering and particle aggregation, leading to performance degradation over repeated thermal cycles. This study explores a moisture hydration-based strategy to regenerate a degraded calcium sorbent and mitigate performance degradation for long duration TCES. The addition of moisture transforms calcium oxide into calcium hydroxide and produces intercalation water layers, associated with a regenerated surface area and reduced calcium oxide crystallite size. Both these effects are beneficial in restoring the sorbents' reactivity for carbonization. Additionally, an optimized hydration-assisted reactivation protocol balances the recovered energy storage capacity with heating penalty required for moisture removal from hydrated samples, resulting in an enhanced energy storage capacity up to 176% compared to benchmark sorbents that undergo cycling without reactivation after 60 cycles. In conclusion, these results highlight the potential of hydration-assisted reactivation to enhance the long-term performance of TCES, providing an effective pathway to advancing electro-thermal storage technologies.
