Single photoionization of the Zn II ion in the photon energy range 17.5-90.0 eV: experiment and theory

Measurements of the single-photoionization cross-section of Cu-like Zn + ions are reported in the energy (wavelength) range 17.5 eV (708 Å) to 90 eV (138 Å). The measurements on this trans -Fe element were performed at the Advanced Light Source synchrotron radiation facility in Berkeley, California at a photon energy resolution of 17 meV using the photon-ion merged-beams end-station. Below 30 eV, the spectrum is dominated by excitation autoionizing resonance states. The experimental results are compared with large-scale photoionization cross-section calculations performed using a Dirac Coulomb R-matrix approximation. Comparisons are made with previous experimental studies, resonance states are identified and contributions from metastable states of Zn + are determined.

Entropy Pair Functional Theory: Direct Entropy Evaluation Spanning Phase Transitions

We prove that, within the class of pair potential Hamiltonians, the excess entropy is a universal, temperature-independent functional of the density and pair correlation function. This result extends Henderson’s theorem, which states that the free energy is a temperature dependent functional of the density and pair correlation. The stationarity and concavity of the excess entropy functional are discussed and related to the Gibbs–Bugoliubov inequality and to the free energy. We apply the Kirkwood approximation, which is commonly used for fluids, to both fluids and solids. Approximate excess entropy functionals are developed and compared to results from thermodynamic integration. The pair functional approach gives the absolute entropy and free energy based on simulation output at a single temperature without thermodynamic integration. We argue that a functional of the type, which is strictly applicable to pair potentials, is also suitable for first principles calculation of free energies from Born–Oppenheimer molecular dynamics performed at a single temperature. In conclusion, this advancement has the potential to reduce the evaluation the free energy to a simple modification to any procedure that evaluates the energy and the pair correlation function.

MARMOT update for oxide fuel modeling

This report summarizes the lower-length-scale research and development progresses in FY16 at Idaho National Laboratory in developing mechanistic materials models for oxide fuels, in parallel to the development of the MARMOT code which will be summarized in a separate report. This effort is a critical component of the microstructure based fuel performance modeling approach, supported by the Fuels Product Line in the Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) program. The progresses can be classified into three categories: 1) development of materials models to be used in engineering scale fuel performance modeling regarding the effect of lattice defects on thermal conductivity, 2) development of modeling capabilities for mesoscale fuel behaviors including stage-3 gas release, grain growth, high burn-up structure, fracture and creep, and 3) improved understanding in material science by calculating the anisotropic grain boundary energies in UO$_2$ and obtaining thermodynamic data for solid fission products. Many of these topics are still under active development. They are updated in the report with proper amount of details. For some topics, separate reports are generated in parallel and so stated in the text. The accomplishments have led to better understanding of fuel behaviors and enhance capability of the MOOSE-BISON-MARMOT toolkit.

About the Impact of the Unresolved Resonance Region in Monte Carlo Simulations of Sodium Fast Reactors

In the last few years, and within the framework of different European projects, KENO-VI code from SCALE system has been employed to perform detailed continuous-energy Mon-te Carlo transport calculations for advanced fast reactors. The core characterization of both the sodium-cooled ASTRID and the lead-cooled ALFRED reactors was performed during the FP7 cross-cutting ESNII+ project; more recently, core calculations for the sodium-cooled Superphénix reactor and the improved European Sodium Fast Reactor design were performed within the HORIZON2020 ESFR-SMART project. In all cases, the effective multiplication factor predicted by KENO-VI was systematically higher (around 400-500 pcm) than the values computed by MCNP and Serpent Monte Carlo codes, using the same nu-clear data library.In order to provide insight into the origin of the observed discrepancies, a simplified 2D MOX-fueled SFR pin-cell benchmark has been launched. The multiplication factor, as well as 1-group and VITAMINJ 175-group cross-sections computed by KENO-VI, Serpent and MCNP codes employing ENDF/B-VII.1 data library, have been compared.Significant differences between KENO-VI and the other codes have been found in the un-resolved resonance regions of 239Pu and 241Pu capture and production cross sections, while negligible differences appeared outside those energy ranges. On the other hand, calculations without using probability tables have shown very good agreement. Quantita-tive comparison is presented and analyzed, along with a discussion of the impact of the probability-table treatment in the three codes for MOX-fueled systems with typical SFR spectrum.

Synthesis of Silicalite Membrane with an Aluminum-Containing Surface for Controlled Modification of Zeolitic Pore Entries for Enhanced Gas Separation

The separation of small molecule gases by membrane technologies can help performance enhancement and process intensification for emerging advanced fossil energy systems with CO 2 capture capacity. This paper reports the demonstration of controlled modification of zeolitic channel size for the MFI-type zeolite membranes to enhance the separation of small molecule gases such as O 2 and N 2 . Pure-silica MFI-type zeolite membranes were synthesized on porous α-alumina disc substrates with and without an aluminum-containing thin skin on the outer surface of zeolite membrane. The membranes were subsequently modified by on-stream catalytic cracking deposition (CCD) of molecular silica to reduce the effective openings of the zeolitic channels. Such a pore modification caused the transition of gas permeation from the N 2 -selective gaseous diffusion mechanism in the pristine membrane to the O 2 -selective activated diffusion mechanism in the modified membrane. The experimental results indicated that the pore modification could be effectively limited within the aluminum-containing surface of the MFI zeolite membrane to minimize the mass transport resistance for O 2 permeation while maintaining its selectivity. The implications of pore modification on the size-exclusion-enabled gas selectivity were discussed based on the kinetic molecular theory. In light of the theoretical analysis, experimental investigation was performed to further enhance the membrane separation selectivity by chemical liquid deposition of silica into the undesirable intercrystalline spaces

Phase-field modeling for restructuring in the dark zone of high burnup UO 2

This report summarizes the mesoscale modeling work performed in fiscal year 2024 under the Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) program to capture the microstructural evolution and restructuring observed in the dark regions of high burnup UO 2 nuclear fuel. This is the first attempt to realistically simulate the restructuring behavior observed in different region of a high burnup fuel. We employ a grand-potential based phase-field model to concurrently evaluate the formation of subgrains and growth of fission bubbles within the fuel. A energy-based subgrain formation criteria is introduced to simulate the restructuring process. Effect of different initial conditions and different modeling parameters are studies systematically to capture how each of these parameters influence the characteristics of the restructured fuel. It is observed that the subgrain formation begins around existing fission gas bubbles and then proceeds towards triple junctions, grain boundaries and grain interiors. It is demonstrated that restructuring is influenced by a combination of initial dislocation densities, subgrain formation rate, and temperature. Rate of restructuring increases with increase in fuel temperature. A restructuring bias is observed within the microstructure due to variation in defect accumulation among different grains. Furthermore, bubble sizes and distribution does not have a significant effect on rate of restructuring. The predicted microstructures resembles the characteristics of the restructured regions as observed in experiments. Finally, a correlation is presented that demonstrates the evolution of the restructuring volume fraction as a function of local effective burnup. This work provides a first of its kind restructuring model for darkzone that can be used by BISON for performance prediction of high burnup UO 2 fuel.

Modeling, Performance Assessment, and Nodal Data Analysis of TRISO-Fueled Systems with Shift

This technical report documents several enhancements to the Shift Monte Carlo (MC) code under the US Department of Energy (DOE) Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) program in fiscal year (FY) 2022. Performance enhancements were added to Shift specifically for tristructural isotropic (TRISO)–fueled reactor systems and guided based on performance analysis in FY 2021. For the pebble performance model developed in previous studies, the runtime improved by ~ 91× compared to the original model and ~ 2× compared to the user-optimized model. Compared to Serpent, Shift is ~ 3× slower if Serpent delta-tracking is enabled but ~ 2× faster when delta-tracking is disabled. The multigroup cross section generation was improved through simplifying tally input definitions, porting several post-processing tally operations from Python scripts into the Shift code base, and accounting for production reactions in the scattering multiplicity. Progress was also made on two emerging capabilities: (1) the development of Titan (a Shift reactor physics user interface) and (2) initial investigation into path-length tallies for computing multigroup scattering matrices.

Orientation-Dependent Surface Faceting in UO{sub 2}

The surface behavior of UO{sub 2} plays an important role throughout the lifetime of this widely-used commercial nuclear fuel, from manufacturing to waste storage. UO{sub 2} surface properties affect fuel swelling behavior by determining the morphology, size and distribution of fission gas bubbles. Additionally, UO{sub 2} surface characteristics influence fracture behavior, which is controlled by the thermodynamics of fracture surfaces. Therefore, detailed understanding of the fundamental surface behavior will help advance prediction of the fuel performance of UO{sub 2}. Due to significant anisotropy in surface tension, faceting features form after annealing in both UO{sub 2} and many other crystalline materials. Knowledge of the correlation between crystallographic orientation and surface faceting features will expand the fundamental knowledge of UO{sub 2} surface characteristics, leading to a better understanding of fission gas swelling and fracture mechanisms. Inherent characterization technique limited previous studies on the crystallographic orientation of UO{sub 2} surface facets to low Miller index surfaces in single crystal specimens. In this study, synchrotron Laue microdiffraction was utilized to examine the crystallographic orientation of grains on the coarse surface of a polycrystalline UO{sub 2} specimen. The results were then compared with the surface morphology, obtained from scanning electron microscopy (SEM), so that a general correlation between the surface faceting features and crystallographic orientation in UO{sub 2} can be established. Both the fundamental surface characteristics and the crystallographic orientation measurements obtained in this study help advance the experiment validation of MARMOT, a mesoscale multi-physics code that predicts the coevolution of microstructure and properties within reactor fuel during its lifetime in the reactor. The MARMOT code is an indispensable component of the MOOSE-BISON-MARMOT (MBM) code suite that has been developed by Idaho National Laboratory to enable next generation fuel performance modeling capability as a part of the Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation (NEAMS) Program Fuels Product Line (FPL). In this study, the surface-faceting features of UO{sub 2} were found to be dominated by the triple-plane structure and its variants. With this knowledge, by measuring the directions of the <110> edges, the crystallographic orientation of a surface UO{sub 2} grain can be precisely deduced in most regions of the standard stereogram triangle (SST) of the surface normal.

Energy Storage and Generation for Extreme Temperature and Pressure and Directional Measurement While Drilling Applications

FastCAP Systems Corporation has successfully completed all milestones defined by the award DE-EE0005503. Under this program, FastCAP developed three critical subassemblies to TRL3 demonstrating proof of concept of a geothermal MWD power source. This power source includes an energy harvester, electronics and a novel high temperature ultracapacitor (“ultracap”) rechargeable energy storage device suitable for geothermal exploration applications. FastCAP’s ruggedized ultracapacitor (ultracap) technology has been proven and commercialized in oil and gas exploration operating to rated temperatures of 150°C. Characteristics of this technology are that it is rechargeable and relatively high power. This technology was the basis for the advancements in rechargeable energy storage under this project. The ultracap performs reliably at 250°C and beyond and operates over a wide operating temperature range: -5°C to 250°C. The ultracap has significantly higher power density than lithium thionyl chloride batteries, a non-rechargeable incumbent used in oil and gas drilling today. Several hermetically sealed, prototype devices were tested in our laboratories at constant temperatures of 250°C showing no significant degradation over 2000 hours of operation. Other prototypes were tested at Sandia National Lab in the month of April, 2015 for a third party performance validation. These devices showed outstanding performance over 1000 hours of operation at three rated temperatures, 200°C, 225°C and 250°C, with negligible capacitance degradation and minimal equivalent series resistance (ESR) increase. Similarly, FastCAP’s ruggedized electronics have been proven and commercialized in oil and gas exploration operating to rated temperatures of 150°C. This technology was the basis for the advancements in downhole electronics under this project. Principal contributions here focused on design for manufacture innovations that have reduced the prototype build cycle time by a factor of 10x. The electronics have demonstrated a substantially reduced design cycle time by way of process and material selection innovations and have been qualified for 250°C / 10 Grms for at least 200 hours. FastCAP has also invented a rotary inertial energy generator (RIEG) to harvest various mechanical energy sources that exist downhole. This device is flow-independent and has been demonstrated as a proof of concept to survive geothermal well temperatures under this project. The herein energy harvester has been developed to provide operational power by harvesting rotational mechanical energy that exists downhole in geothermal drilling. The energy harvester has been tested at 250°C / 10 Grms for 200 hours. Deployment of these technologies in geothermal drilling and exploration applications could have an immediate and significant impact on the effectiveness and efficiency of drilling processes, particularly with regard to use of advanced logging and monitoring techniques. The ultimate goal of this work is to reduce drilling risk to make geothermal energy more attractive and viable to the customer. Generally speaking, we aim to support the transfer of MWD techniques from oil and gas to geothermal exploration with considerations toward the practical differences between the two. One of the most significant obstacles to the deployment of advanced drilling and production techniques in the geothermal context are limitations related to the maximum operating temperatures of downhole batteries used to provide power for downhole sensors, steering tools, telemetry equipment and other MWD/LWD technologies. FastCAP’s higher temperature ultracapacitor technology will provide power solutions for similar advanced drilling and production techniques, even in the harsher environments associated with geothermal energy production. This ultracapacitor will enable downhole power solutions for the geothermal industry capable of the same reliable and safe operation our team has demonstrated in the oil and gas context. Without batteries, geothermal MWD is left without a downhole power source. Some very high temperature turbines exist but provide unsteady, intermittent power and no power when the flow is off. In high loss formations common to geothermal exploration, it will be auspicious to support air drilling in which case there is no flow to power a turbine at all. In the best case, rechargeable energy storage will help to buffer unsteady power from non-battery power sources and in the worst case it will be needed to store energy from highly intermittent sources to provide a continuously operable power source to the tool.

Atomic-level heterogeneity and defect dynamics in concentrated solid-solution alloys

Performance enhancement of structural materials in extreme radiation environments has been activelyinvestigated for many decades. Traditional alloys, such as steel, brass and aluminum alloys, normallycontain one or two principal element(s) with a low concentration of other elements. While these existin either a mixture of metallic phases (multiple phases) or in a solid solution (single phase), limited orlocalized chemical disorder is a common characteristic of the main matrix. Fundamentally different fromtraditional alloys, recently developed single-phase concentrated solid-solutio n alloys (CSAs) contain mul-tiple elemental species in equiatomic or high concentrations with different elements randomly arrangedon a crystalline lattice. Due to the lack of ordered elemental arrangement in these CSAs, they exhibit sig-nificant chemical disorder and unique site-to-site lattice distortion. While it is well recognized intraditional alloys that minor additions lead to enhanced radiation resistance, it remains unclear inCSAs how atomic-level heterogeneity affects defect formation, damage accumulation, and microstruc-tural evolution. These knowledge gaps have acted as roadblocks to the development of future-generation energy technology. CSAs with a simple crystal structure, but complex chemical disorder,are unique systems that allow us, through replacing principal alloying elements and modifying concen-trations, to study how compositional complexity influences defect dynamics, and to bridge the knowl-edge gaps through understanding intricate electronic- and atomic-level interactions, mass and energytransfer processes, and radiation resistance performance. Recent advances in defect dynamics and irradi-ation performance of CSAs are reviewed, intrinsic chemical effects on radiation performance arediscussed, and direction for future studies is suggested.

Optimization of energy requirements for CO 2 post-combustion capture process through advanced thermal integration

The energy optimization modeling work described here was performed to determine efficiency improvements that could be achieved for existing coal-fired power plants to retrofit a partial CO 2 capture from the post-combustion flue gas for carbon sequestration through thermal integration. The work presented includes optimization of the mono-ethanol amine (MEA)-based post-combustion CO 2 capture to reduce energy requirements that could be achieved at existing power plants by thermal integration of the steam turbine cycle, boiler, CO 2 compression train and post-combustion CO 2 capture process to offset efficiency and capacity losses that would be incurred by retrofit or implementation of post-combustion CO 2 capture. Furthermore, partial CO 2 capture, involving treatment of less than 100% of the flue gas leaving the plant and modular design of the CO 2 scrubbing system, was also investigated. Thermal integration of the steam turbine cycle with boiler and CO 2 compression train improved cycle and plant performance and offset, in part, the negative effects of post-combustion CO 2 capture. The best-analyzed integration options improved gross power output by 5% and net unit efficiency by 1.57%, relative to the conventional MEA process. Operating with 40% CO 2 capture increased gross power output by 11.6–14% (depending on the MEA thermal integration option), relative to the conventional MEA integration and 90% CO 2 capture. The improvement in net unit performance is larger compared to the improvement in turbine cycle performance because of the CO 2 compression work, which is also reduced by partial CO 2 capture.

Supercooled liquid sulfur maintained in three-dimensional current collector for high-performance Li-S batteries

In lithium-sulfur (Li-S) chemistry, the electrically/ionically insulating nature of sulfur and Li 2 S leads to sluggish electron/ion transfer kinetics for sulfur species conversion. Sulfur and Li 2 S are recognized as solid at room temperature, and solid-liquid phase transitions are the limiting steps in Li-S batteries. Here, we visualize the distinct sulfur growth behaviors on Al, carbon, Ni current collectors and demonstrate that (i) liquid sulfur generated on Ni provides higher reversible capacity, faster kinetics, and better cycling life compared to solid sulfur; and (ii) Ni facilitates the phase transition (e.g., Li 2 S decomposition). Accordingly, light-weight, 3D Ni-based current collector is designed to control the deposition and catalytic conversion of sulfur species toward high-performance Li-S batteries. This work provides insights on the critical role of the current collector in determining the physical state of sulfur and elucidates the correlation between sulfur state and battery performance, which will advance electrode designs in high-energy Li-S batteries.

High Performance Computing Facility Operational Assessment, 2012 Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility

Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) continues to deliver the most powerful resources in the United States for open science. At 2.33 petaflops peak performance, the Cray XT Jaguar delivered more than 1.4 billion core hours in calendar year (CY) 2012 to researchers around the world for performing computational simulations relevant to national and energy security; advancing the frontiers of knowledge in physical sciences and areas of biological, medical, environmental, and computer sciences; and providing world-class research facilities for the nation’s science enterprise. OLCF users achieved numerous wide-ranging research accomplishments and technological innovations in 2012. It is not possible to fully summarize the breadth and impact of their productivity within this brief report—OLCF researchers published more than 300 research articles in 2012 alone. Here we identify selected accomplishments that advance the state of the art in science and engineering research and development. The work was recognized through peer-review publications in notable journals such as Science, Nature, and The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), among the many noted in this report. Exploration of the nuclear landscape carried out by Innovative and Novel Computational Impact on Theory and Experiment (INCITE) researchers and their theoretical prediction of isotopes were featured in Nature in 2012 (see Section 3.2.2). On the other end of the physical-scale spectrum, researchers executed a 22,000-year transient Earth System Model simulation that explained the misleading lag of carbon dioxide behind Antarctic temperature records and pointed to carbon dioxide’s role in driving global climate change over glacial cycles. This deglaciation study and related work by OLCF users were featured in Nature and PNAS in 2012 (see Section 3.2.3). Other representative achievements by OLCF users include generation of spectroscopic and photometric data for more accurate distance measurements, necessary for planning future National Science Foundation and Department of Energy (DOE) missions such as the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope and the Palomar Transient Factory; calculations to enable the experimental verification of Bose glass; and screening of 2 million compounds against a targeted receptor in a matter of days, as opposed to the months that would be required for computing clusters, creating a vast library of molecular compounds that can be used for future screenings of potential drug candidates. These and other accomplishments are described in Section 3.
