RWP2 Materials for High Temperature Technologies in the Energy Industry focuses on finding new ways in the production and processing technologies of new materials for numerous applications in the energy industry, on the research of their structures, properties and testing. The scope of research on materials for energy devices is linked to energy storage, conversion and transport technologies, which are also included in the research work package. The interest in active research and development of new technologies and materials in the energy industry is not only shared by companies but is also significantly supported by the European Commission. The ever-increasing pressure to ensure the reliability of power plant equipment and electricity grids only reinforces these requirements.
RWP2 is divided into three parts:
- WP2/1 Materials for the accumulation of high-potential thermal energy (prof. Ing. Jozef Vlček, Ph.D., Materiálový a metalurgický výzkum s.r.o.)
- WP2/2 Materials for accumulation, release and transport of hydrogen (doc. Ing. Vlastimil Matějka, Ph.D., FMST VSB - Technical University of Ostrava)
- WP2/3 Microstructural stability, mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of welded joints in energy equipment (prof. Ing. Vlastimil Vodárek, CSc., FMST VSB - Technical University of Ostrava)
