Abstract

Full-field axial deformation within molten-salt batteries was measured using x-ray imaging with a sampling moiré technique. This method worked for in situ testing of the batteries because of the inherent grid pattern of the battery layers when imaged with x-rays. High-speed x-ray imaging acquired movies of the layer deformation during battery activation. Numerical validation of the technique, as implemented in this paper, was done using synthetic and numerically shifted images. Typical results of a battery are shown for one test. Ongoing work on validation and more test results are in progress.
