Nickel-based alloys are widely used in the field of new energy, which is specifically reflected in the following aspects:
Hydrogen-powered urban train: The successful trial operation of the world's first hydrogen-powered urban train marks a new breakthrough in the application of hydrogen energy in the field of rail transportation. Among them, nickel-based alloys have been widely used in high-pressure hydrogen energy equipment due to their excellent corrosion resistance, hydrogen embrittlement resistance and good hydrogen conductivity.
Nickel-based alloys play an important role in the manufacture of hydrogen-powered urban rail vehicles, such as the manufacture of high-pressure hydrogen storage, the construction of hydrogen pipelines and hydrogen transmission systems, etc. These systems are responsible for transporting hydrogen from storage to fuel cells to ensure a stable supply of hydrogen.
New energy vehicles: In the field of new energy vehicles, such as battery manufacturing for electric vehicles, nickel-based alloys such as Alloy 800 are used to manufacture battery pack casings and structural parts to ensure that the battery remains stable and safe in extreme working environments.
Nuclear power generation: Nickel-based alloys also have important applications in the field of nuclear power generation. For example, Alloy 800 and Alloy 617 are used to manufacture reactor cooling system components, such as heat exchangers and pipes. These components need to withstand extremely high temperatures and strong radiation, and nickel-based alloys, with their excellent high temperature and radiation resistance, provide a strong guarantee for the safe and stable operation of nuclear power plants.
New energy sources such as solar energy and wind energy: Nickel-based alloys are also widely used in new energy fields such as solar energy and wind energy. They are used to manufacture solar collectors, wind turbine blades, etc., and can withstand extreme working environments such as high temperature and high pressure.
