Prepared under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy Division of Power Systems. Volume I of Thermionic Energy Conversiondealt with processes and devices (MIT Press, 1974). Its four chapters summarized information basic to the field and not subject to substantial alteration by future developments. Volume II begins with chapter 5 and describes the scientific and engineering aspects of thermionic conversion and the experience with actual operational hardware. It summarizes the experience and analytic methods that should be useful in the development of new applications of thermionic conversion. Thermionic Energy Conversionis intended for scientists and engineers working in the field of energy conversion. With increased interest in maximizing the efficiency of present energy conversion systems, it is an important reference for scientific and engineering libraries as well. The book benefits especially from the authors' actual experience-Hatsopoulos and his firm, Thermo Electron Corporation, are leaders in this field. Gyftopoulos and his students have made basic contributions to the theory of thermionic conversion. Both authors have developed a unified quantum theory of mechanics and thermodynamics. The book covers Elements of Quantum Mechanics; Principles of Thermodynamics; Thermodynamics of Stable Equilibrium States; Thermodynamics of Steady States; Emission Phenomena; Collisionless Transport Phenomena; Analysis of Performance Characteristics of High-Pressure Diodes; Experimental Techniques; Experimental Studies and Correlations of Characteristics; Metallurgy of Electrode Materials; Design and Fabrication of Practical Convertors; and Thermionic Power System Engineering.

A thermionic energy converter based on a coaxial diode configuration was used to obtain information relative to problems associated with instrumenting and heating a large-scale converter and to determine certain thermal and thermionic characteristics. The cylindrical tungsten cathode, having an emitting area of 73.7 square centimeters, was operated at temperatures in the range 1200° to 2000° K. Diode thermal characteristics such as temperature gradients, temperature ratios, heat-flow distributions, and thermal emissivities were studied. Thermionic characteristics were determined in both a vacuum and a cesium vapor atmosphere. The investigation defined problems associated with thermal gradients on emitting areas, interelectrode resistive leakage caused by vapor deposition, determination of heat-transfer properties, and measurement of cathode emission properties.

Effort was continued to improve performance and increase the reliability of thermionic energy converters for space applications. The particular objectives include optimization of geometry and ceramic insulation between emitters and heat source. This work will include the development of a thermionic generator module to develop 3.0 volts of potential from a liquid metal heat source. The overall concept of the 3-volt generator has been established. Before final design and fabrication of the generator, the more difficult problems are being solved by fabricating and testing prototype 3-converter modules. During this period, four 3-converter modules were assembled. A number of subassemblies were successfully tested and techniques for assembling a series of converters within a single envelope were perfected. A method of bonding the center heat source tubing has been tentatively selected and materials for detailed evaluation of the method have been ordered. Life testing of one Type A1198B converter was concluded after 1010 hours. Another converter of this type has since completed 600 hours of a life test with a constant output of 46 watts. (Author).
