Void-Engineered Metamaterial Delay Line with Built-In Impedance Matching for Ultrasonic Applications

Metamaterials exhibit unique ultrasonic properties that are not always achievable with traditional materials. However, the structures and geometries needed to achieve such properties are often complex and difficult to obtain using common fabrication techniques. In the present research work, we report a novel metamaterial acoustic delay line with built-in impedance matching that is fabricated using a common 3D printer. Delay lines are commonly used in ultrasonic inspection when signals need to be separated in time for improved sensitivity. However, if the impedance of the delay line is not perfectly matched with those of both the sensor and the target medium, a strong standing wave develops in the delay line, leading to a lower energy transmission. The presented metamaterial delay line was designed to match the acoustic impedance at both the sensor and target medium interfaces. This was achieved by introducing graded engineered voids with different densities at both ends of the delay line. The measured impedances of the designed metamaterial samples show a good match with the theoretical predictions. The experimental test results with concrete samples show that the acoustic energy transmission is increased by 120% and the standing wave in the delay line is reduced by over a factor of 2 compared to a commercial delay line.

Contoured PPM-EMAT Design for Ultrasonic Communication On Metallic Pipe Channels

Ultrasonic guided waves can be used as the carriers of information in ultrasonic communication for pipe or plate channels. Permanent Periodic Magnet (PPM) Electromagnetic Acoustic Transducer (EMAT) can potentially provide unique capabilities for a communication system as a non-contact transmitter and receiver, which can selectively generate different modes of shear-horizontal (SH) waves. The SH wave shows the potentials in achieving high bitrate without error in ultrasonic communication. However, when a steel pipe is used as the communication channel, especially one with a radius comparable to the size of the transducer, no guided wave signal can be excited or detected by existing PPM-EMAT's with flat coupling surface. In this paper, a 3D printed magnet holder is designed which can shape the magnet array. Also, the transmitter/receiver coils are made of flexible printed circuit which can fit over the curvature of the pipe channels. The contoured PPM-EMAT transmitter and receiver can conform to the surface of the steel pipe channel in order to generate and detect torsional waves. Experimental tests of signal transmission with PPM-EMAT on a 160cm-long stainless steel pipe determine the optimal frequency for communication to be 916KHz. Information transmission experimental results confirm the validity of contoured PPM-EMAT for communication with a bitrate of 5kbps.

Resonant Ultrasonic Spectroscopy: A Modal-Analysis Approach for Additive Manufacturing

Resonant ultrasonic spectroscopy is a methodology capable of measuring a change in modal resonant frequencies of material structures. It encompasses an inversion technique based on the eigen-frequencies of a simple regular sample geometry to estimate the elastic tensor of a solid. Obtaining an accurate and complete set of resonant frequencies is a critical first step in the RUS process. In this paper a variety of techniques to extract and validate material resonances from complicated RUS measurement spectra are developed. Various processing methodologies employing modal analysis techniques are applied to estimate the underlying resonances that lead to the extraction of the elastic coefficients characterizing the specimen under test. A case study of a simple isotropic material (304 SS) is investigated to analyze the algorithms and evaluate their performance

High plasticity in refractory composite fabrication by ultrasonic additive manufacturing

Refractory metal composites are desirable for use in extreme environments that require materials with high specific strengths and resilience to external environments such as that found in nuclear and aerospace. However, due to the high melting temperature of refractories, liquid state joining processes such as welding remains difficult. Ultrasonic additive manufacturing (UAM) provides a potential route for processing refractory composites because it is a solid-state (i.e., no-melting) process and allows for intermittent machining operations to be performed between welds. Further, to demonstrate refractory composite fabrication, this study utilized UAM to machine a cavity to locate and sequester a Mo foil in a Zircaloy-4 (Zry-4) baseplate and additively build over the top with Zry-4 foils, thereby embedding the Mo in Zry-4 matrix. Significant deformation of the Zry-4 microstructure was observed: this deformation caused adiabatic heating and subsequent dynamic recrystallization through the transformation from α→β and then back to α as the material cooled. Flexural testing of the Zr–Mo composite revealed no delamination or failure, but the strength was not as expected, falling lower than a cold-worked Zry-4 sample. Finite element analysis supported that some bonding must have existed between the Zry-4 and Mo. There was indeed an interdiffusion zone at the Zry-4 foil–Mo foil interface, observing a metastable body-centered cubic β-Zr lathe. It was determined that sufficient strain energy was present to encourage the nucleation of the β-Zr grain along α-Zr grains. Future work is warranted to investigate UAM for refractory composite fabrication.

Development of a Robust Reference Electrode in Aggressive Chemical and Radiation Environments in the Hanford Waste Tanks

The Hanford site stores more than 200 million liters of radioactive and chemically hazardous wastes from the production of weapons materials. The wastes are stored in 177 underground carbon-steel storage tanks, separated between 149 single shell tanks (SSTs) and 28 double shell tanks (DSTs). The DSTs provide critical retrieval and interim storage before the waste is vitrified in the Waste Treatment and Isolation Plant (WTP). The tanks will need to remain in-service far beyond the initial 40-year design life, and effective corrosion control practices must remain in force to extend the tanks’ lifespans. This effort includes direct measurements of corrosion rate (e.g., ultrasonic measurements and corrosion coupons) and electrochemical processes (e.g., linear polarization measurements and open circuit potential measurements). The Hanford site began monitoring the corrosion potential in select DSTs in 2008. Of the 45 reference electrodes that have been installed, 29 have failed and 6 others provided unreliable results. DOE-EM is supporting a 3-year program to develop a chemical and radiation resistant reference electrode for application in the Hanford tanks. The first year of the program focused on understanding the failure mechanism for the reference electrodes and identification of candidate construction materials that would mitigate degradation of the electrodes in the waste environment. During the second year of the program, the objectives were to: 1) test candidate materials under simulated waste conditions, 2) design components that will extend the service life of the electrode, 3) fabricate materials for prototype reference electrodes, and 4) assemble prototype reference electrodes for accelerated testing. The reference electrode is constructed of four principal parts: 1) junction, 2) casing, 3) inner chamber backfill materials, and 4) the sensing wire. Principally, improvements of the junction, casing, and inner chamber backfill materials are being pursued. The junction material at the interface between the waste and the inner chamber of the reference electrode was identified as a critical component in the failure of the reference electrodes. Nine candidate replacement junction materials were tested under simulated waste conditions to evaluate permeation rate. These materials included a variety of polymeric and ceramic materials, some of which were 3-D printed. Thus far, porous polyvinylidene fluoride materials have performed satisfactorily and are being considered for prototype development. The commercial electrode casing materials in general have performed well. Additionally, 3-D printing of chemically and mechanically stable materials is being investigated as a means for further improvement in fabrication consistency. SRNL has also investigated altering the reference electrode design to extend the service life. The new design of the interior of the reference electrode casing creates a longer, more tortuous path between the junction material and the electrode sensing wire. A finite element model was used to optimize the design without adversely impacting the circuit resistance of the electrode during the measurements, thus preserving the measurement accuracy while enhancing the service life. The inner chamber back fill materials are also critical to the performance of the reference electrode. Materials that are resistant to intruding tank waste and provide a conductive path to the sensing wire were investigated. Gel and powder materials that are interspersed with a conductive chloride bearing material were tested for their influence on diffusion and electrode resistance. All the investigated materials and components will be assembled, with collaboration from commercial vendors, to fabricate the initial prototypes. Accelerated testing of the prototypes will be initiated in Year 2 of the program and will be completed in Year 3. A recommendation on the materials of construction and the design of the new robust reference electrode will be presented to the Hanford tank farm facility.

Echogenic Segmentation for Ultrasonic Measurements of Spatially Distributed Properties in Solids

An ultrasonic (US) pulse propagating between transducer-receiver responds cumulatively to distributed material properties it encounters, such as temperature distribution. Such convolution makes the unique reconstitution of distributions impossible short of applying tomographic techniques. However, spatial heterogeneity in material properties is readily revealed by segmenting the US propagation path with echogenic features (EF), producing a train of echoes delayed as a function of segmentally localized properties. Unfortunately, in low attenuating waveguides (WGs), primary and trailing echoes (TE) interfere, limiting the number, density, and placement of EFs we can use. We report the design guidelines for creating US-segmented WGs for measuring distributed properties, in which the impact of TEs is minimized or eliminated. Two waveguide designs using these principles have been tested in spatially distributed temperature measurements in high-temperature or restrictive environments.

The Use of Acoustic Cavitation to Recovery High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU) form TRISO Fuel Particles

Recent interest in advanced nuclear reactor concepts such as small modular reactor (SMR), micro reactor or versatile test reactor (VTR) has increased the demand for high-assay, low-enriched uranium (HALEU). The sustainable management of this resource is integral to successful resurgence of nuclear energy in the United States. The High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor (HTGR) concept is a prime candidate for deployment of the new fleet of SMRs, and it will become very important to have a simple and cost-effective technology to recover HALEU from short-burned, defective, or off-specification TRISO fuel particles. We have attempted to harness the high energetics of sonochemistry to penetrate the TRISO fuel particles and recover HALEU via acidic leaching. While the TRISO fuel particle design is inherently “bulletproof,” (due to the silicon carbide (SiC) layer), ultrasonic irradiation may hold the key to convenient access to its valuable contents. Sonochemistry is a field of chemistry based on acoustic cavitation, which is the formation, growth, and collapse of bubbles in liquid media.1,2 The oscillating bubble formation is produced by irradiation of a liquid media with sound waves. Literature reports indicate that collapsing bubbles induced by cavitation produces intense local heating, high pressures, and short lifetimes.1 These localized hot spots reach temperatures of ˜5000 K, pressures approaching 500 atm, and heating and cooling rates exceeding 100 K/s.1 The large temperature and pressure differentials deliver high-energy heating and microscopic explosive shock waves to a liquid media or liquid/solid interface. Cavitation at the surface of a solid in solution induces a deformation in the bubble cavity upon collapse. This deformation reinforces the bubble structure and sends a fast-moving stream of liquid through the cavity at the surface with velocities greater than 100 m/s.3 These energetic impacts have demonstrated an ability to penetrate or simply destroy the SiC shell surrounding the uranium fuel kernel during prolonged exposures to the high-power acoustic waves. Some preliminary results demonstrating HALEU recovery using sonochemistry techniques will be reported.

Exploring the structural uniformity and integrity of protonic ceramic thin film electrolyte using wet powder spraying

Thin protonic ceramic electrolyte contributes to lower ohmic resistance and enhances electrochemical performance of protonic ceramic electrochemical cells. However, manufacturing of large-scale thin electrolyte remains a challenge. Wet powder spraying is an attractive technique to deposit <10 µm thin electrolyte when advanced atomizing techniques and optimized spraying process are integrated. Here ultrasonic atomization is integrated in the wet powder spray technique to reduce the thickness of electrolyte. Moreover, a parametric study is conducted to optimize the wet powder spray process to deposit uniform and crack-free electrolyte film. It is illustrated that tuning of solid loading rates and spray passes can affect the morphology of the as-sprayed electrolyte film, enabling the structural compactness of the sintered electrolyte layer. To maintain chemical stability of the electrolyte layer during sintering, effect of sintering temperature is further investigated to produce a physically thin, structurally dense, and chemically homogeneous electrolyte layer. The protonic ceramic electrochemical cells fabricated with optimized spraying and sintering parameters demonstrate excellent performance under both fuel cell and electrolysis modes. In addition, the cells exhibit remarkable structural integrity during redox and long-term stability tests.

Calibration and validation of the foundation for a multiphase strength model for tin

In this work, the Common Model of Multi-phase Strength and Equation of State (CMMP) model was applied to tin. Specifically, calibrations of the strength-specific elements of the CMMP foundation were developed with a combination of experiments and theory, and then the model was validated experimentally. The first element of the foundation is a multi-phase analytic treatment of the melt temperature and the shear modulus for the solid phases. These models were parameterized for each phase based on ab initio calculations using the software VASP (Vienna Ab initio Simulations Package) based on density functional theory. The shear modulus model for the ambient phase was validated with ultrasonic sound speed measurements as a function of pressure and temperature. The second element of the foundation is a viscoplastic strength model for the phase, upon which strength for inaccessible higher-pressure phases can be scaled as necessary. The stress–strain response of tin was measured at strain rates of 10 -3 to 3 x 10 3 s -1 and temperatures ranging from 87 to 373 K. The Preston–Tonks–Wallace (PTW) strength model was fit to that data using Bayesian model calibration. For validation, six forward and two reverse Taylor impact experiments were performed at different velocities to measure large plastic deformation of tin at strain rates up to ⁠10 5 s -1 . The PTW model accurately predicted the deformed shapes of the cylinders, with modest discrepancies attributed to the inability of PTW to capture the effects of twinning and dynamic recrystallization. Some material in the simulations of higher velocity Taylor cylinders reached the melting temperature, thus testing the multiphase model because of the presence of a second phase, the liquid. In simulations using a traditional modeling approach, the abrupt reduction of strength upon melt resulted in poor predictions of the deformed shape and non-physical temperatures. With CMMP, the most deformed material points evolved gradually to a mixed solid–liquid but never a fully liquid state, never fully lost strength, stayed at the melt temperature as the latent heat of fusion was absorbed, and predicted the deformed shape well.

Self-powered Through-wall communication for dry cask storage monitoring

Many nuclear facilities, such as spent fuel storage dry casks and nuclear reactor pressure vessels, are entirely sealed by metal layers to prevent harmful radiation. For safety and security operations, the temperature, pressure, radiation, and humidity inside the vessel needs to be closely monitored. However, no practical technology is currently available to realize the through-wall data communication and monitoring for these vessels due to the inside harsh environment of high temperature and nuclear radiation. In this paper, an innovative self-powered wireless through-wall data communication system for the nuclear environment is presented, which demonstrates a successful solution to such challenges. The presented system is composed of four modules, i.e., energy harvester with power management circuits, ultrasound wireless communication using high-temperature piezoelectric transducers, electronic circuits for sensing and data transmission, and radiation shielding for electronics. Here, constitutive functions of each module were firstly designed and followed by the system integration. Experiments were conducted subsequently to validate the designed functions and evaluate the performance of the integrated system. Results showed that the average power of over 40 mW was harvested from the thermal flow inside the nuclear spent fuel canisters which could provide enough energy to operate the sensing and data communication systems. The gamma radiation test results showed that the thermoelectric energy harvester and ultrasound transceivers can withstand radiation dosing over 100 Mrad. Furthermore, temperature shock tests demonstrated that the entire system including the shielded electronics can survive and maintain their functionalities at temperatures as high as 195°C. Under the in-lab mocked-up high temperature conditions and radiation shielding, the proposed system is foreseen to survive and operate stably for fifty years inside a nuclear spent fuel canister, and send the frequency modulated data out of the canister for 3 s in every 10 min.

Unsteady- and Steady-State Relative Permeability Study with X-ray and Acoustic Monitoring for CO 2 Storage in Deep Saline Aquifers

In this study, we link the multiphase flow measurements with controls of sedimentary structures (e.g., heterogeneity and anisotropy) on relative permeability to variations in ultrasonic velocities for two deep saline aquifer formations (Entrada and Bluff Sandstones) in the San Juan Basin of the Southwestern USA. The rock specimens were extracted from outcrop sites near Durango, CO, USA. They have distinct differences in grain size, cementation composition, and individual chemical amounts, despite both formations being eolian sandstones. We performed a series of unsteady- and steady-state CO 2 -brine relative permeability experiments under capillary-controlled displacement rates. Unsteady-state experiments were conducted at 71 °C and 9.65 MPa; steady-state experiments were conducted at 85 °C and 22.8 MPa and 89 °C and 24.1 MPa for the Bluff and Entrada Sandstones, respectively. During the unsteady experiments, X-ray computed tomography was used to visualize multiphase flow in porous media and quantify saturations during brine drainage under various flow rates. Scan images and saturation profiles indicate that the CO 2 distribution in the pore volume was strongly impacted by the presence of high-angle cross-laminations, heterogeneous rock structure, and direction of bedding orientation. Those factors contribute to dramatic and quick initial breakthroughs and affect the overall saturation dynamics. Steady-state relative permeability tests were conducted at net flow rates of 1 mL/min for both brine drainage and imbibition. During the experimental steps, the CO 2 fractional flow was increased and decreased for both drainage and imbibition scenarios to mimic the front when CO 2 contacts brine and behind the front when brine enters space previously occupied by CO 2 . It was found that compressional velocity decreased, while shear waves slightly increased as brine saturation decreased. The hysteresis effects for the relative permeability and acoustic velocities were distinct. Furthermore, the CO 2 /brine front stability is quantified by applying a mobility ratio approach to spot saturations at which the boundary line between fluids becomes uneven. The results presented in this work can potentially boost the quality and precision of forecasts for the CO 2 storage projects in which the vertical and horizontal core-scale heterogeneity and anisotropy impact the plume migration within host reservoirs.

Nondestructive ultrasonic characterization of a triple-weld-bead wire arc additively manufactured ER70S-6 S-curved wall

Understanding build-scale microstructural variation in wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) of low-carbon steels is essential for ensuring consistent structure–property relationships throughout large components. Conventional destructive characterization techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), are time-intensive and limited to localized regions, making comprehensive evaluation of large WAAM structures challenging. In this study, a nondestructive ultrasonic approach was employed to characterize a 252 mm tall ER70S-6 S-curved WAAM wall produced using a triple-bead deposition strategy. Optical and SEM analysis revealed a repeating dual-region microstructure consisting of uniform polygonal ferrite at melt pool centers and heterogeneous ferrite with coarse and fine grains near melt pool boundaries, attributed to cyclic thermal conditions. Longitudinal ultrasonic backscatter imaging was used to evaluate the continuity of this periodicity along the full build height. The ultrasonic response exhibited a consistent repeating pattern that correlated with the observed layer-wise microstructural variation. X-ray computed tomography confirmed the absence of detectable porosity, indicating that ultrasonic contrast is primarily governed by grain morphology. Overall, the results indicate that longitudinal backscatter ultrasound is a promising nondestructive characterization technique for validating microstructural variations along the s-curved WAAM wall, with significant potential for microstructure optimization and process control.

Temperature-dependent elastic constants of thorium dioxide probed using time-domain Brillouin scattering

Herein we report the adiabatic elastic constants of single-crystal thorium dioxide over a temperature range of 77–350 K. Time-domain Brillouin scattering, an all-optical, non-contact picosecond ultrasonic technique, is used to generate and detect coherent acoustic phonons that propagate in the bulk perpendicular to the surface of the crystal. These coherent acoustic lattice vibrations have been monitored in two hydrothermally grown single-crystal thorium dioxide samples along the (100) and (311) crystallographic directions. The three independent elastic constants of the cubic crystal (C 11 , C 12 , and C 44 ) are determined from the measured bulk acoustic velocities. The longitudinal wave along the (100) orientation provided a direct measurement of C 11 . Measurement of C 44 and C 12 was achieved by enhancing the intensity of quasi-shear mode in a (311) oriented crystal by adjusting the polarization angle relative to the crystal axes. We find the magnitude of softening of the three elastic constants to be ~2.5% over the measured temperature range. Good agreement is found between the measured elastic constants with previously reported values at room temperature, and between the measured temperature-dependent bulk modulus with calculated values. We find that semi-empirical models capturing lattice anharmonicity adequately reproduce the observed trend. We also determine the acoustic Grüneisen anharmonicity parameter from the experimentally derived temperature-dependent bulk modulus and previously reported temperature-dependent values of volumetric thermal expansion coefficient and heat capacity. This work presents measurements of the temperature-dependent elasticity in single-crystal thorium dioxide at cryogenic temperature and provides a basis for testing ab initio theoretical models and evaluating the impact of anharmonicity on thermophysical properties.
