Thermal energy storage in concrete utilizing a thermosiphon heat exchanger

The performance of a lab-scale concrete thermal energy storage (TES) module with a 2-kWh thermal capacity is evaluated at temperatures up to 400 °C. The TES module uses conventional normal weight concrete with thermal and mechanical properties that are tailored for use as a solid thermal energy storage media. A thermosiphon heat exchanger is used to provide rapid heat transfer into the concrete module, which is reinforced with a steel pipe outer shell. The charging and discharging cycles are examined to assess the thermal performance of the concrete and thermosiphon. Based on the results of testing, the thermosiphon is able to repeatably charge the concrete module from 300 to 400 °C over a 4-h period. After 2250 total hours of charge and discharge cycles, there was no observed delamination between the concrete and the thermosiphon or the steel jacket reinforcement. Non-destructive measurements of the concrete indicated no significant degradation of the solid storage media. The experimental results are then used to validate a numerical model of the concrete TES module for parametric study. Finally, varying insulation conditions were analyzed using this model to determine practical configurations for regular operation of the proposed concrete TES module.

Utah FORGE: Well 16B(78)-32 Drilling Data

This drilling data for Utah FORGE well 16B(78)-32 include a well survey, core summary, mud and mud temperature logs, daily reports of the drilling process, and additional data from the Pason oil and gas company. Well 16B(78)-32 serves as the production well for reservoir creation, fluid circulation, and demonstration of heat extraction for the FORGE project. It has been drilled as a doublet approximately 300 feet parallel to and above the injection well 16A(78)-32. The proposed total depth was 10,658 feet, which was exceeded. Spudding began on April 26th, 2023. As of June 20th, 2023, the total depth measured 10,947 feet and the vertical depth measured 8,357 feet. Drilling included the trial use of insulated drill pipe (IDP) from Eavor Technologies, which was considered a success. IDP restricts counter-current heat transfer between drilling fluid inside the drill string and hotter returning fluid in the annulus, thereby ensuring the bottomhole assembly (BHA) remains submerged in cool fluid. Eavor rented 350 joints of IDP to FORGE which were run in two consecutive BHAs at the well. The results of this trial are included here.

Efficient Thermal Energy Storage with Radial Flow in Packed Beds

Thermal energy storage (TES) is a way to store excess heat in order to generate power later. These types of systems are valuable in the solar industry, where power production can still occur when sunlight is not available. This not only increases system flexibility, it drives down the cost of electricity. One option to store thermal energy is with a packed bed where the storage media resides in a cylindrical container. Flow from one end of the cylinder to the other deposits or recovers heat (axial flow). While a promising technology in terms of energy storage, it exhibits a high pressure drop that lowers overall system efficiency. This project seeks to flow the heat transfer fluid through the storage media in the radial direction. This system offers the potential to retain reasonable thermal performance while substantially lowering the pressure drop. The overall goal was to assess the performance of radial flow experimentally and numerically. Three main designs were considered in this work. The first system utilized a central pipe and four receiving pipes near the wall. The second system utilized a central pipe and an annulus with holes near the wall. The last approach considered segmenting the bed so only select zones would receive flow in the radial direction. In a high-aspect ratio system, the hole patterns in the piping are important for ensuring even flow into the bed, and a major design effort was testing holes patterns to promote even flow. The four pipe system was shown to be not feasible, as preferential flow paths occur that do not allow even and full heating of the packed bed. The annular system can lead to even flow, but the results show this is better accomplished through larger piping instead of considering variations in the hole pattern along the axial length of the pipe. Segmenting the bed can lead to similar exergetic performance when compared to axial or radial flow. However, the pressure drop in the segmented design is likely too high for practical implementation. A baseline commercial design showed exergetic efficiencies for axial, radial, and radial segments of 81.6%, 82.8%, and 80.2%, respectively. Pressure drop for the axial and radial results were 2.36 psi and 2.45 psi, respectively, with segments being nearly an order of magnitude higher. At these large scales, the aspect ratio of the system is important. From a baseline of 0.64, an aspect ratio of 0.32 for radial flow showed an exergetic efficiency of 86% but a pressure drop of 5.39 psi. All of these results provide new insights into packed bed thermal energy storage with radial flow. Competing effects must be considered when designing a radial system, and results show a radial design can show strong thermal results at the expense of system efficiencies from pressure drop. The COMSOL models used in this analysis are available to the public and other researchers. Public benefits include a potential increase in the efficiency of packed bed thermal energy storage. Higher efficiency in storage promotes green energy technologies while reducing costs.

An Overview of Non-LWR Vessel Cooling Systems for Passive Decay Heat Removal (Technical Letter Final Report)

The following report provides a technical review of various reactor vessel cooling system (VCS) concepts under consideration for decay heat removal (DHR) in non-light water advanced reactor designs. This review focuses on ex-vessel designs, including the Reactor Cavity Cooling System (RCCS), the Reactor Vessel Auxiliary Cooling System (RVACS), and hybrid iterations, using both air and water cooling to achieve their heat removal function. Based on a literature review of publicly available sources published between 1979 and 2021, a technical summary is presented detailing existing and planned VCS design options, their applicability to specific reactor type, and review of authored research and development studies. Following an assessment of the availability of data and modeling tools, an evaluation was performed analyzing their likely performance during normal, degraded, and accident conditions, including reliability, stability, and longevity. With renewed consideration of air-based DHR systems by some US vendors, there is a need to fully understand the complexities inherent to natural circulation systems, and more importantly, how they may influence safety-related heat removal functions and system performance. For DHR systems that rely on air-based mode of cooling, this entails quantification of the impacts of low flow conditions during start-up, relative elevations of inlet and outlet ducts for below-grade installations, effects of the use of multiple parallel chimneys for redundancy, and impact of weather conditions at the plant site. For systems relying on water-based mode cooling, reliance on limited coolant inventory in an event of pipe break or extended duration accident scenarios, sensitivities related to stability of boiling flow and heat transfer conditions, and quantification of full-scale structural vibrations on balance of plant structures are among the complicating factors.

Klickitat Valley Health Central Utility Plant Modernization

This project replaced legacy heating and cooling equipment at Klickitat Valley Health (KVH), a rural hospital in Goldendale, Washington. Work included constructing a new chiller building, installing modern hydronic piping systems, replacing the main Emergency Department air handler (Air Handlining Unit (AHU-1)), upgrading electrical systems, and converting the Emergency Department wing from electric reheat to hydronic heating and cooling. Commissioning, testing, adjusting, and balancing were completed under this grant. These upgrades improve energy efficiency, operational resilience, and system reliability while preparing the campus for future electrification and renewable energy integration. They also support growth in healthcare services for a rural population. The project directly reduces energy costs and provides a foundation for future decarbonization measures, including a FEMA-funded microgrid and a large-scale ground source heat pump (GSHP) project. These follow-on initiatives would not have been possible without the hydronic backbone built through this project.

Optical Investigation of Catalyst Heating Operation in a Light-Duty Compression-Ignition Engine

It is well known that cold start engine operation contributes a majority of tail-pipe emissions during a vehicle drive cycle. Aftertreatment catalysts have poor conversion efficiency during this period due to low conversion efficiency at temperatures less than their light-off temperature. A late post injection strategy, with a delayed injection to increase exhaust enthalpy, can help decrease the time required to heat-up the catalyst. However, late injections into conditions with decreasing temperature and density can result in high emissions and combustion instability. In this study a three-injection strategy with a late-post injection was investigated in an optically-accessible engine. For the first two injections (pilot and main) timing and duration were held constant as the post injection timing was swept and duration varied to hold load constant, at a relevant light-load catalyst heating operating condition. Simultaneous double-pass schlieren and OH chemiluminescence data were acquired in an optically-accessible 0.4 L single-cylinder engine to understand spray characteristics and combustion behavior for #2 diesel fuel. Optical images analysis revealed higher liquid penetration and lower vaporization of the liquid fuel jet as post injection is retarded. It is also observed that retarding post injection timing to +25 CAD resulted in lower observed soot concentration in the piston bowl.

Grid Resilience Analysis on Geothermal District Heating and Cooling Implementation Alongside Four Existing Oil and Gas Wells in Tuttle, Oklahoma: Preprint

This study builds on the existing techno-economic and environmental life cycle assessments performed for a geothermal district heating and cooling system implementation in Tuttle Oklahoma with four existing oil and gas wells. Its resilience in meeting the peak annual heating and cooling loads of the district assuming a temporary disconnection from the electrical grid is assessed both qualitatively and quantitatively. Attributes of resilience and qualitative criteria established by Kolker et al. (2022) for geothermal district heating systems are applied to the proposed case to highlight its vulnerabilities. Results indicate that increasing the redundancy and diversity in the physical configuration of the distributional piping can considerably increase the system’s resilience. A quantitative assessment executed via the REopt tool predicts that the ancillary electricity required to power the geothermal system’s heating and cooling can be met by an onsite emergency diesel generator during times of grid outages for over 28 days.

Energy Saving Estimation of ASHRAE Guideline 36 Supervisory Setpoint Reset Controls in a Commercial Large Office Building

Designing, commissioning, and retrofitting HVAC control systems for energy efficiency is crucial, but the use of ad-hoc control sequences by designers and contractors, based on scattered information, results in diverse and sub-optimal sequences. ASHRAE Guideline 36 (G36) addresses the challenge by providing standardized, rule-based HVAC control sequences that prioritize energy efficiency. However, there is limited evaluation of their energy performance at the building level, with only a few studies primarily focused on HVAC airside systems in small-to-medium-sized commercial buildings. In this study, the energy performance of ASHRAE Guideline 36 control sequences was assessed using a large office building emulator in Chicago. The emulator features a central plant system with multiple chillers and boilers as well as multiple variable air volume (VAV) systems with terminal reheat. To achieve a high-fidelity representation, we developed a Spawn-of-EnergyPlus-based model for the large office building, maintaining the DOE prototype large office building setup but substituting the HVAC system with its Modelica counterpart. This substitution ensures that the building thermal load, HVAC system's dynamics, and detailed control sequences are all accurately represented. The study involved evaluating and implementing control strategies outlined in ASHRAE Guideline 36-2021 to replace conventional controls. These strategies include the demand-based supply air temperature and duct static pressure setpoint reset and the request logic for demand-based reset of chilled/hot water supply temperature setpoints and pipe static pressure setpoints. Energy performance was evaluated under various load conditions, including cooling, heating, and transitional seasons, both for individual control strategies and in combination. The results indicate that the collective control strategies retrofit yield greater energy savings than the sum of individual strategies, highlighting the synergistic benefits of incorporating both airside and plant-side control retrofits. Additionally, energy savings of up to 41% in the heating season, 18% in the shoulder season, and 20 % in the cooling season were observed compared to baseline control while maintaining the thermal comfort level.

Qualification and Commissioning of Helium Flow Loop Experiment for Blanket Design Measurements

Sufficient cooling of plasma-facing materials remains an outstanding challenge in the design of fusion reactor blankets in commercial power demonstration plants. Due to its chemical inertness and low neutron interaction cross section, pressurized helium is a candidate coolant fluid for such systems; however, helium has a small thermal mass compared to liquid coolants, potentially reducing heat removal performance. To address this need, a number of heat transfer enhancements have been proposed to improve the cooling efficiency of such components, thereby decreasing pumping power needs and improving overall plant efficiency. Toward this end, a helium flow loop experiment (HFLE) has been designed and commissioned to test advanced passive heat transfer enhancements in unit-cell test sections, providing necessary data for model validation and subsequent system design. The HFLE is designed to provide flow of pressurized (up to 4 MPa) helium at flow rates up to 80 g/s, enabling heat transfer and pressure drop measurements in test pieces at Reynolds numbers in excess of 180 000. To explore the effects of novel and complex heat transfer enhancements, test sections are produced via additive manufacturing, providing geometries not typically obtainable by conventional machining. Here in this work, we present results from HFLE commissioning and the initial thermal-hydraulic tests of an additively manufactured rifled-rib test section. Results are compared to smooth pipe correlations, and plans are described for future HFLE measurements. These preliminary experiments indicate the utility of the HFLE for heat transfer enhancement testing and simulation validation activities.

Heat load measurements for the PIP-II pHB650 cryomodule

This study presents a brief overview of the 1st and 2nd phases and an in-depth analysis of the 3rd phase heat load testing performed on the pHB650 (prototype High Beta 650 MHz) cryomodule at PIP2IT (PIP-II Injector Test Facility), with a focus on both the results and the methodological advancements that have improved testing efficiency and accuracy. A key challenge identified in the testing campaign is the higher-than-expected heat loads observed in the first PIP-II (Proton Improvement Plan II) prototype cryomodules (pSSR1 and pHB650) tested at PIP2IT. Elevated heat loads are concerning given the fixed capacity of the PIP-II cryoplant that is currently being installed at Fermilab. However, understanding the sources of these elevated heat loads offers a critical opportunity to implement effective heat load mitigations on upcoming PIP-II cryomodules to stay within the available capacity of the PIP-II cryoplant. The study includes a summary of test results, descriptions of measurement procedures, and key observations on parameters directly and indirectly related to heat load measurements. Direct observations include measured heat loads and the effectiveness of JT heat exchanger under varying conditions, while indirect observation analyze factors such as the temperature distribution on the two-phase pipe and relief piping under varying conditions. Thermal acoustic oscillations (TAO) were identified during testing, which was mitigated by replacing the original G10 stem with a stainless steel stem equipped with wipers for the cryomodule cooldown valve. A major innovation during pHB650 Phase 3 testing was the development of an automated Python script to streamline data acquisition, analysis, and reporting of heat load results. This script automatically retrieved data from ACNET (Accelerator Control Network), performed heat load calculations, and generated detailed reports featuring plots and tables. This advancement significantly reduced manual labor and enhanced the thoroughness of data analysis compared to earlier campaigns. The heat load test reports were promptly uploaded to the electronic logbook shortly after each test, enabling rapid feedback and collaboration between the SRF and cryogenic teams. The heat load measurements included various components: HTTS (high-temperature thermal shield), LTTS (low-temperature thermal shield), 2K isothermal and non-isothermal heat loads. Results were recorded both within the cryomodule and between the bayonet can supply and return. Measurements were conducted under different operating conditions such as "standard", "linac", and "simulated dynamic". Additionally, HTTS and LTTS heat loads were calculated in real time, allowing for the tracking of thermal stability and identification of changes during testing, both in steady-state and transient conditions. The results of this testing campaign not only provide valuable insights into the performance of the pHB650 cryomodule but also highlight best practices and lessons learned that will inform future cryomodule testing at PIP2IT. These include adopting automated tools for data analysis, refining real-time measurement capabilities, and emphasizing detailed pre-test planning. The framework established in this campaign aims to set an improved standard for cryomodule testing and heat load reporting in future cryomodule test campaigns.

Design Study of a Superconducting Quadrupole Magnet System Sustainable Under Dark Current Heating in ILC Main Linac

The International Linear Collider (ILC) main linac comprises a series of 12 m-long cryomodules. The cryomodule contains eight 9-cell superconducting (SC) RF (SRF) cavities and an SC quadrupole magnet combined with dipole correctors to focus and steer electron and positron beams. The magnets are installed between the SRF cavity string and at the longitudinal center of a common cryomodule/cryostat. These magnets are conductively cooled by pure aluminum channels thermally connected to a 2 K two-phase helium pipe for cooling the SRF cavities. A recent study shows that field-emitted electrons, so-called “dark current” initiated in the SRF cavities, are transmitted through the SRF cavity string and reach the SC magnet. The energy is inevitably absorbed in the SC coil due to the magnetic field, resulting in risks of a quench caused by the coil heating. We are investigating alternate magnet designs by using Nb $_{3}$ Sn or $\text{MgB}_{2}$ SC and by adding the dark current absorber surrounding the beam-pipe to realize sustainable magnet operation under the dark current heating. We report the design study of the magnet system and interfaces to the cryomodule accommodating it with the SRF cavities.

Measuring Heat Transfer Coefficients for Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Cycle Recuperators

This paper describes the measurement of convective heat transfer coefficients and friction factors for sCO 2 flowing in pin-fin patterned pipes at the US DoE’s National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Morgantown, WV. The measurement procedures were validated by conducting benchmark tests with smooth stainless-steel tube and comparing the results with published correlations for Nusselt number (𝑁𝑢) and friction factor. Over Reynolds numbers (Re D ) ranging from 5×104 to 2.5×105 , measured 𝑁𝑢 was within 5% of the Dittus-Boelter correlation and measured friction factors were within 5% of the McAdams correlation for smooth tube flow.

Flexible hose interconnect testing for parabolic troughs with nitrate salt

The use of molten salt as a heat transfer fluid in parabolic trough concentrated solar power plants, in lieu of oil-based heat transfer fluids, presents the possibility to increase the plant's operating temperature and corresponding Rankine cycle efficiency, improve dispatchability, and decrease costs. However, several barriers still exist to commercialization of the technology. This paper discusses meaningful progress toward overcoming two specific barriers to commercialization; 1) the lack of a reliable interconnect solution for molten salt service to connect rotating collectors with stationary header pipes and 2) the limitations of publicly available system modeling tools for a plant using molten salt as both the heat transfer fluid and energy storage medium.

Report on FY 2023 Experimental Results in Developing the Fabrication Parameters for Alloy 709 in Different Product Forms

The Advanced Reactor Technologies (ART) Program has established a multi-year plan to develop Alloy 709 advanced stainless steel (A709), generate the data package and develop material-specific design parameters in qualifying it as a new structural material for Class A construction in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section III, Division 5, High Temperature Reactors (ASME 2023). In collaboration with material vendors, the Advanced Materials Development activities under ART have successfully scaled the A709 plate form production from a laboratory heat of 500 pounds to commercial heats totaling 133,000 pounds of A709 plate fabricated from three heats. The goal of the overall A709 development program is to establish the necessary microstructural and mechanical properties relationship for A709 to ultimately develop fabrication parameters for other product forms such as bars, pipes, and forgings using the available ART A709 materials. The objective of this A709 development work in FY 2023 is to experimentally determine grain coarsening behavior for the A709 heats and to experimentally generate the continuous cooling precipitation (CCP) diagram for A709 using the as-rolled commercial heat plate materials. Integral to this work is the characterization of the as-rolled materials and the determination of an effective solution-annealing process, which was reported in Y. Wang et al., 2023. This report summarizes the results of the high-speed dilatometry project to develop the CCP diagram using the commercial heat 58776-3RB fabricated by G. O. Carlson and heat 529900-02 fabricated by Allegheny Technologies Incorporated (ATI) Specialty Rolled Products.

In situ characterization of residual stress evolution during heat treatment of SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites using high-energy X-ray diffraction

Volumetric strains were measured in silicon carbide/silicon carbide melt-infiltrated ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) at ambient and high temperatures using high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD). Both silicon and silicon carbide constituents were interrogated utilizing a broad spectrum of diffracting planes that would be largely inaccessible to common laboratory XRD equipment. Residual room-temperature principal strains in the melt-infiltrated silicon phase were found to be approximately 1100 mu epsilon in compression, corresponding to stresses of approximately 300 MPa using simplifying constitutive assumptions. Residual room-temperature principal strains in silicon carbide particles found throughout the matrix were approximately 500 mu epsilon in tension, corresponding to approximately 300 MPa. Residual strains were found to decrease considerably as temperatures increased from ambient temperature to 1250 degrees C. Additionally, residual strains returned to approximately preheat treatment values after cool-down to ambient temperature. Strain measurements in the silicon phase were found to be significantly affected by dissolved boron dopant levels causing contraction of the silicon lattice. This contraction must be accounted for in high-temperature experiments for accurate calculation of stresses in the silicon phase.

THERMAL ANALYSIS OF THE RHIC ARC DIPOLE MAGNET COLD MASS WITH THE EIC BEAM SCREEN

The EIC will make use of the existing RHIC storage rings with their superconducting (SC) magnet arcs. A stain-less-steel beam screen with co-laminated copper and a thin amorphous carbon (aC) film on the inner surface will be installed in the beam pipe of the SC magnets. The copper will reduce the beam-induced resistive-wall (RW) heating from operation with the higher intensity EIC beams, that if not addressed would make the magnets quench. Limiting the RW heating is also important to achieve an adequately low vacuum level. The aC coating will reduce secondary electron yield which could also cause heating and limit in-tensity. Among all the RHIC SC magnets, the arc dipoles present the biggest challenge to the design and installation of beam screens. The arc dipoles, which make up for 78% (2.5 km) length of all SC magnets in RHIC, expect the larg-est RW heating due to their smallest aperture. These mag-nets are also the longest (9.45 m each), thus experiencing the largest temperature rise over their length, and have a large sagitta (48.5 mm) that increases the difficulty to in-stall the beam screen in place. This paper presents a de-tailed thermal analysis of the magnet-screen system.
