معرفی
Marty Philippe is a Professor at Université Grenoble Alpes and a member of the Équipe Energétique within the LEGI (Laboratoire des Écoulements Géophysiques et Industriels). He collaborates extensively with the CEA-Grenoble on thermal energy intensification and hydrogen storage. His research focuses on heat storage, hydrogen storage in metal hydrides (in collaboration with the Institut Néel), and the influence of wettability on boiling heat transfer. He previously led the Master of Process Engineering at Université Joseph Fourier until 2015 and managed the Energy Team at LEGI until 2014.
His work integrates
- Numerical simulations of boiling flows in concentrated solar plants,
- Hydrogen storage systems using magnesium hydride,
- Thermal energy storage with phase change materials (PCMs), and
- Experimental studies on heat transfer in microchannels and multiphase flows.
Key research trends in his articles include advancements in thermal energy storage (e.g., LiBr/H₂O absorption systems), numerical modeling of phase change phenomena, and optimization of heat exchangers for industrial applications. His studies often bridge computational fluid dynamics with experimental validation, addressing challenges in renewable energy systems and thermal management.
He has contributed to interdisciplinary projects, such as the development of a prototype for long-term solar heat storage and the design of hydrogen tanks with integrated heat management. His work also explores material science applications, including nanostructured MgH₂ for enhanced hydrogen absorption/desorption.
Lab affiliations include the LEGI’s facilities like the tunnel hydrodynamique and soufflerie à bas niveau de turbulence, enabling experimental validation of his computational models.
