Abstract

This paper presents a study of direct conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy during the combustion of a (80Zr + 20CuO)–(LiF + CaF2 + MgF2)–(15Zr + 85CuO) thin three-layer condensed energy system, which is a high-temperature galvanic cell. It is determined that this cell during combustion generates an electric signal with an amplitude of 1.6 V and a half-width of 15 s. Its formation mechanism is proposed. A time-resolving X-ray diffraction method is used to identify the phases formed.
