Computational modeling predicts the stability of both Pd + and Pd2 + ion-exchanged into H-CHA
Passive NO x adsorbers (PNA) using Pd/zeolites have emerged as a promising solution for the reduction of cold-start emissions from vehicle exhaust. However, the nature of the active sites and the mechanisms underlying NO x adsorption in Pd/zeolites remain a subject of ongoing investigation. In this study, we employ quantum chemical simulations to investigate the structure of Pd species in cation-exchange sites at isolated Al and Al pairs in the 6-ring and 8-ring of the CHA framework before the introduction of NO x . Our calculations show that the speciation of Pd in these exchange sites strongly depends on the precise Al arrangement within the framework, as well as the operating conditions. Ionically dispersed Pd is found to be the most favorable species over a wide range of oxidizing and reducing conditions. Small oligomers of PdO and metallic Pd do not appear to be competitive at either isolated Al or Al pairs. Notably, our calculations show that ion exchange sites other than next–next–nearest neighbor Al pairs in the 6-ring will be preferentially occupied by Pd + instead of Pd 2+ . The stability of Pd + in the zeolite environment is an interesting contrast with its rareness in molecular Pd compounds. Nonetheless, a detailed analysis of the electronic structure shows that predicted Pd oxidation states are consistent with chemical intuition for all complexes investigated in this study. We also discuss the potential ambiguity in Pd characterization provided by typical experimental techniques such as XANES, EXAFS and UV-Vis, and highlight the need for additional EPR spectroscopy studies to further elucidate the initial Pd speciation in zeolites for PNA applications.

Fast and fault-tolerant model predictive control of MMCs under selective harmonic elimination
Selective harmonic elimination (SHE) is a suitable pulse-width modulation (PWM) tech-nique for some applications of modular multilevel converters (MMC) with lower numberof semiconductor submodules (SM). However, SHE can make it difficult to control circu-lating currents in the MMC. Moreover, the MMC is vulnerable to SM switch failures thatreduce its output power magnitude and quality. This paper proposes a fault-tolerant modelpredictive control strategy for MMCs operating with SHE (FT SHE-MPC). The effects ofswitch failure on phase voltage waveforms are studied first. Then, a method is proposedto design the FT SHE waveform to preserve its harmonic performance. Next, the pro-posed FT SHE-MPC is designed to increase the capacitor voltages during an SM failure tomaintain the fundamental component of the faulty phase voltage and control the circulat-ing currents, maintaining balance among line voltages and the output power of the MMC.Additionally, the proposed method offers as much as 60% faster FT transition time and asmuch as 36% lower capacitor voltage ripple. The advantages of the proposed method areverified through offline and real-time simulation studies on a three-phase nine-level MMCin PSCAD/EMTDC software and RTDS.
Integrated model predictions on the impact of substrate damage on gas dynamics during ITER burning-plasma operations
Divertor design and choice of plasma-facing materials (PFM) will be essential to the success of next-generation fusion reactors as they operate under more powerful scenarios. Understanding and controlling interactions between the plasma and PFM is essential to making these choices. Within these plasma–material interactions and especially in tungsten (W), the interplay between the most abundant plasma species (hydrogen isotopes and helium, He) with the wall material alters fuel retention. However, this interplay is yet to be sufficiently understood to confidently project fuel retention levels to future fusion devices. The paper presents a series of integrated simulations of fusion plasmas and their interaction with tungsten. Specifically, this study assesses the impact of He plasma pre-exposure on hydrogenic species retention during 100 s of burning plasma operations (BPO) in ITER. Multiple pre-exposure scenarios are considered, including sub-surface damage resulting from exposures in the linear device PISCES and from early ITER He-operation. The predictions from these consecutive He-BPO exposures show that fuel content and spatial distribution in the material are largely determined by the He-induced damage, as manifest in: (i) changes in surface temperature expected during BPO have little effect on fuel retention in the presence of He-induced damage; (ii) gas content stabilizes quickly in substrates pre-exposed in PISCES, at levels set by the concentration of pre-existing vacancies, while it continues to increase in substrates initially pristine or pre-exposed to ITER He plasmas; (iii) the presence of He and He–V clusters in the near-surface region locally increases hydrogenic retention, but decreases its permeation; this results in hydrogenic species that remain closer to the surface in pre-damaged substrates, while the bulk content is higher for initially pristine cases. In summary, the interaction and binding of D and T with the pre-existing He–V clusters modifies retention and permeation of hydrogen species during ITER BPO.
