Cyclic Injection Leads to Larger and More Frequent Induced Earthquakes under Volume-Controlled Conditions

As carbon storage technologies advance globally, methods to understand and mitigate induced earthquakes become increasingly important. Although the physical processes that relate increased subsurface pore pressure changes to induced earthquakes have long been known, reliable methods to forecast and control induced seismic sequences remain elusive. Suggested reservoir engineering scenarios for mitigating induced earthquakes typically involve modulation of the injection rate. Some operators have implemented periodic shutdowns (i.e., effective cycling of injection rates) to allow reservoir pressures to equilibrate (e.g., Paradox Valley) or shut-in wells after the occurrence of an event of concern (e.g., Basel, Switzerland). Other proposed scenarios include altering injection rates, actively managing pressures through coproduction of fluids, and preinjection brine extraction. Here, in this work, we use 3D physics-based earthquake simulations to understand the effects of different injection scenarios on induced earthquake rates, maximum event magnitudes, and postinjection seismicity. For comparability, the modeled injection considers the same cumulative volume over the project’s operational life but varies the schedule and rates of fluid injected. Simulation results show that cyclic injection leads to more frequent and larger events than constant injection. Furthermore, with intermittent injection scenario, a significant number of events are shown to occur during pauses in injection, and the seismicity rate remains elevated for longer into the postinjection phase compared to the constant injection scenario.

BEE - FY20 P6-3: Release BEEWorkflowManager, BEETaskManager, and client application 2.3.6.01 – LANL ATDM ST / STNS01-4 P6 Milestone Completion Documentation

Release BEEWorkflowManager, BEETaskManager, and client software. The BEEWorkflowManager daemon runs on the HPC cluster login node. It accepts workflows submitted by the BEE client. These workflows are specified using the Common Workflow Language (CWL) standard. The BEEWorkflowManager loads workflows into the Neo4j graph database to create the workflow directed acyclic graph (DAG), and submits the workflow tasks to the BEETaskManager for execution. The BEEWorkflowManager records the state of the workflow and its tasks, and communicates this state to the BEE client. The BEEWorkflowManager will start, pause, and cancel a running workflow and its tasks at the command of the BEE client. The BEETaskManager daemon runs on the HPC cluster login node. It accepts tasks from the BEEWorkflowManager, turns those tasks into HPC resource manager jobs (e.g. a slurm job script), and submits the job to the cluster resource manager. The BEETaskManager then tracks the status of the job (pending, running, complete) and updates the BEEWorkflowManager. The BEETaskManager will also cancel a queued or running job when commanded to do so by the BEEWorkflowManager. The first release of the BEETaskManager will support the Slurm resource manager and the Charliecloud linux container runtime.

Enduring Transuranic Liquid Waste Volume Forecast and Constituent Evaluation (FY20)

The “FY11 Radioactive Liquid Waste (RLW) Influent Boundary Condition Assessment and Forecast” report provided influent volume forecasts that were critical in establishing the design capacity for the new Radioactive Liquid Waste Transuranic (RLW-TRU) capability. The design for the new RLW-TRU capability was paused as the final design was being completed and prior to the transition of the new management and operations contract for Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Recently, NNSA has directed the project to restart and complete the design effort. As part of the restart process, LANL was asked to validate or document any material changes in the influent volumes or constituents that formed the design basis for the new capability. This analysis updates the transuranic liquid waste influents volumes, incorporating the changes in the LANL program of record since the FY11 assessment, and includes a cursory validation of influent constituents. The results of the FY19 update to influent volume forecasts shows: 1) the influent volume of 29,000 L should continue to be used as the project design-basis; 2) There have been no material changes in the operational processes that would change the constituents of concern from either a treatment or material compatibility perspective.

Engineered Barrier System R&D and International Collaborations – LANL (FY20): Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition

The United States Department of Energy’s Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition (SFWD) program is investigating the design and safety function of generic nuclear geologic repositories in a variety of geologic settings (salt, argillite, and crystalline rock). Different configurations and loadings of spent nuclear fuel and waste within disposal canisters are also being investigated, some of which have the potential to generate repository temperatures higher than previously considered (i.e., temperatures >100ºC) by foreign and domestic concepts. This report expands on engineered barrier material stability in a high temperature crystalline rock repository through high temperature hydrothermal experiments. Experiments were designed to develop engineered barrier system (EBS) concepts in a hightemperature crystalline environment in 1) bentonite-Grimsel Granodiorite interactions, 2) bentonite-cement reactions, and 3) interaction between waste canister materials and bentonite. Experiment results are applied to understanding long-term repository performance in terms of radionuclide isolation. One hydrothermal experiment was completed in the rocking autoclaves at LANL in FY-20: IEBS-6 (Grimsel Granodiorite + Wyoming bentonite + cured ordinary Portland cement + Grimsel Granodiorite synthetic groundwater, 250ºC/150 bar, 8 weeks). Several other experiments were planned but were delayed due to the COVID-19 pause in laboratory work. In addition, some characterization of the reaction products of experiments conducted in FY-20 was prevented by COVID-19. Mineral phase chemistry was not measured via electron microprobe analyses for IEBS-6. Quantitative X-ray diffraction results from IEBS-6 and HBT-1 were not completed. The missing analyses and discussion of the results will be included in next year’s report. New characterization that was completed includes scanning electron microscopy of reaction products from IEBS-6, quantitative X-ray diffraction results are presented from IEBS-1 through IBES-5, preliminary scanning electron microscope images and chemical analyses for IEBS-6, X-ray diffraction of the clay fraction from all experiments, measurement/imaging of mineral growth on the surface of steel coupons. Major observations pertaining to bentonite stability in a Grimsel Granodiorite environment include the stability of Na-montmorillonite at 250°C, the formation of trace CSH phases, and the formation of bentonite colloids on experiment cooling. The addition of a cured chip of Portland cement to the bentonite-Grimsel system results in slightly higher pH values and the formation of diverse secondary mineral phases that were not observed in the previous experiments (e.g., analcime, garronite, CSH phases). The new characterization efforts related to the interaction of stainless-steel coupons and bentonite clay focused on thickness and mineralogy of phases that formed at the steel surface. In Wyoming bentonite + Grimsel Granodiorite systems, newly formed minerals at the bentonitesteel coupon interface included alteration of the outermost steel edge to Fe,Cr-oxide phases, followed by Fe-rich phyllosilicates (Fe-saponite, chlorite) and interbedded Fe,Cr,Ni-sulfide phases (pentlandite). Hydrothermal experiments were completed to assess uranium-carbonate complexation at conditions relevant to high-temperature disposal. Autoclave solubility experiments were conducted at 150 to 250ºC with a range of carbonate and uranium concentrations. The experiment results were characterized via situ UV-Visible spectroscopy and synchrotron-based in situ XAS techniques. Results show a significant decrease in the stability of uranyl-carbonate complexes at temperatures above 100ºC along with the precipitation of uranium oxides. Further, at T > 200ºC, results show that uranyl-hydroxyl complexes control solubility of uranium instead of the previously predicted uranyl-carbonate species. These results are significant for understanding the mobility of uranium in the EBS, which will likely contain carbonate-rich fluids. International research efforts focused on three main areas: 1) participation in international conferences, 2) building collaborations with foreign repository programs, and 3) the initiation of an experimental program to complement the full-scale HotBENT test at the Grimsel test site. This experiment included Wyoming bentonite + low carbon steel + Grimsel Granodiorite synthetic groundwater and was run at the planned maximum temperature of the HotBENT test (200°C). Complete characterization of reaction products was hindered by disruptions to laboratory work but will be reported in the next FY. The experimental results obtained in FY-20 continue to document the wide-ranging effects of bulk composition and pressure-temperature conditions in the mineralogical and geochemical evolution of a high-temperature repository environment. Concepts developed will be used to inform models of long-term material stability in a generic crystalline rock-hosted repository.

ESGF project plan for ramping down development activities and transition the project and data to a new team

This document summarizes the current software development activities carried by the ESGF team with planned delivery dates before the transition of the project to a new team. The work we started on the publishing, search and retrieval, and the backend for indexing and data management that can be deployed using Kubernetes are planned to be delivered within the next three months; however, this assumes that the current team members will continue to work on the project. The activities are listed in Table 1 by priority and in case we lose team members, development of lower priority tasks can be paused and passed to the new team with its current status. Team members can be re-assigned based on their availability and transition work needed. Table 2 below describe activities necessary to help project transition to the new team. Deadlines for these activities are before October 1 st of 2022 or the completion of a successful transition. Support during the transition period assumes that we will have 3 key ESGF members and the ESGF PI supported at the 50% level or less for the duration of the transition. The level of support is an estimate, and it depends on several factors that cannot be decided at this time. The total cost of the proposed work and support activities for fiscal year 2021 is $1,270K with $230K carry over to fiscal year 2022. The cost for the support work listed in Table 2 is the sum of the two rows “HW support” and “project support, maintenance, and transition efforts”, colored blue, in Table1 which adds up to $720K. This cost is included in the $1,270K cost in table 1.

Commuting again to work on-site? Lab’s first drivers faced their own challenges decades ago

After a long pause in commuting, more and more Lab staff are filling travel mugs, topping off their tanks, and heading up the hill for on-site work. As long as the Lab has existed, workers have snaked through tight mountain roads to get to their jobs. And, back in the early 1940s, drivers faced even more challenges. In the Lab’s earliest years, drivers likely worried about getting stuck in the mud, navigating intense switchbacks, or making sure important equipment, such as a disassembled power plant, didn’t fall off the back of the truck that was hauling it. Creative solutions could go a long way to get out of a jam. As many of us return onsite and get reacquainted with commuting, we look back at how transportation has changed since the Manhattan Project, the U.S. government’s top secret effort at Los Alamos to create the first atomic bombs to help end World War II. These stories and photos are part of the collections in the National Security Research Center, which is the Lab’s classified library and also houses unclassified artifacts from our past.

Develop Direct 3D Building as a Transformational 3D Printing

Phase 1 of this project recognizes the key advantages of direct 3D building (3DB) by literature research, initial experiments, and analyses. The fundamental enhancement in powder density, layer thickness, and their uniformities are attributed to the independence from high blade speed and powder flowability. The increase in layer quality, before selective fusion, is found qualitatively significant for a step change in process robustness when the unrepeatability of 3D printing (3DP) remains a challenge in serial volume production. The reduced challenge of powder flowability should not only entail improvement in build quality but also reduce powder cost from the strict morphology and size specs. The concurrent selective fusion and powder surface preparation eliminate the need for frequent recoating pauses to increase build speed. On-going experiments include density cup measurements by X-ray scanning and recoating performance evaluation by a rotating disk system to verify some of the results.

Mechanisms Engineering Test Loop (METL) Operations and Testing Report (FY2021)

This report documents the operations and testing that was performed at the Mechanisms Engineering Test Loop (METL) during FY2021. The METL facility had a very successful third year of operations having logged about 944 days of operations with molten sodium either in a flowing or static condition. Operations were paused in April 20, 2021 to accommodate the refurbishing of building 308’s alkali metal passivation booth and scrubber (AMPB&S). METL is being prepared to support a second larger experiment, the Thermal Hydraulic Experimental Test Article (THETA) and expects to resume the Gear Test Assembly (GTA) testing. The technology development team is also developing two additional experiments, a gripper test article and a flow sensor test article that are expected to go into METL in late FY22 or early FY23.

Gear Test Assembly – Experimental Testing and Gear Analysis (FY2021 Year End Report)

The Gear Test Assembly (GTA) is an experimental apparatus designed to test mechanical components used in fuel handling systems of liquid-sodium cooled fast-spectrum nuclear reactors. The performance and lifetime of gears, bearings, and dynamic seals are the primary focus of study. Three experimental campaigns have been completed since the start of operation in 2019, and the GTA is currently assembled and ready to begin the fourth experimental campaign. Sodium operations at the Mechanisms Engineering Test Loop (METL) have been paused while repairs are made to the Building 308 Alkali Metal Scrubber. This work is nearly complete, and once METL is brought back into operation the GTA will begin sodium testing immediately.

Evaluation of Synthetic Diamond Detectors for Fast Neutron and X-ray Detection [Slides]

Element6 has come out of a two year production pause (pre-COVID) with material that lacks their previous QC – some is excellent, but screening is needed. Applied Diamond can now make usable polycrystalline material, for applications not requiring absolute flux calibration. A large area possible (1cm 2 ). Great Lakes Crystal Technology has made great progress in two years, but still needs development to become a trusted supplier of single crystal material. LANL staff (Dongsung Kim) has developed proficient lithography and bonding expertise at CINT to make devices from vendor supplied material. LANL staff has continued and expanded capabilities for device testing at NSLS-II.

Multiple Phase Screen Electromagnetic Propagation Simulations of Starfish Prime Event

It has been decided at this point to pause development of the trans-ionospheric model, and the main goal of this document is to record the current status and maintain a list of references for the future. The 2D model appears to work: however, to truly gain meaningful information about the environment, the scintillation model should be integrated into an end-to-end communication link simulation, which includes much more phenomenology. It would be beneficial at this point to specify a particular link or system and import a HANE environments into existing simulations. Multiple realizations of the noise could then be applied, and communication signal budgets could be analyzed for particular systems.

Final Scientific/Technical Report-FREE-piston Zero Emissions Refrigerator (FREEZER)

The FREE-piston Zero Emissions Refrigerator (FREEZER™) is a natural refrigerant Stirling-cycle cooler developed by AMSC in partnership with Heatcraft, targeted as a replacement refrigeration system for walk-in coolers or freezers found commonly in restaurants, convenience stores, supermarkets, etc. The FREEZER™, combined with a closed-loop CO2 heat-transfer system, had the goal to provides an efficient (Target COP = 1.4), zero ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and near zero GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigeration solution with no synthetic, flammable, or toxic refrigerants. Other near zero GWP refrigeration systems do not exist at the scale and performance level of FREEZER. ARPA-E Continuation Funding enabled the design and fabrication of one Advanced Development Unit (ADU) cooler and two Field Test Unit (FTU) coolers, and a new revised Field Test Unit (new FTU). Heatcraft was to extensively test the various coolers at their facilities, which closely simulate real-world conditions. The original plan was to install and operate FREEZER FTUs alongside a traditional cooling solution at one or more customer locations to obtain data on direct performance comparisons with existing commercial refrigeration systems. Success in this FREEZER refinement and field-test project will establish the basis for a new class of environmentally friendly refrigeration systems that will revolutionize the industry. The hardware developed under the program is shown below in Figure 1. Five Stirling-cycle machines were built within the program, with a sixth cooler still under construction. The original DU and the ADU coolers met the performance target with a coefficient of performance (COP) of 1.2. The FTU was underperforming during the initial tuning of the free-piston Stirling cycle dynamics when there was a catastrophic failure of the fasteners on pressure boundary. This caused a pause to the program while the failure mechanism was investigated. The root cause was an inadequate flange design that allowed an excessive cyclic loading on the fasteners, leading to a fatigue failure. It was determined that existing FTU design could not be reasonably salvaged in a safe manner, and that fact, combined with the lower-than-expected performance of the new experimental heat exchanger modules lead to the design of the “new FTU” with a more conventional shell-and-tube heat exchanger design which should get close to the design target COP of 1.4, but have a higher overall machine cost. The program ran out of time before the fabrication of the new FTU was completed, but AMSC is still working on the cooler, with the majority of the parts fabricated, and hopes to have the unit under test sometime in early 2022, after which it will be shipped to Heatcraft for additional testing.

Report of the 2021 U.S. Community Study on the Future of Particle Physics (Snowmass 2021)

In 2019, with the construction of the projects supported by the 2014 P5 process well underway or in an advanced stage of planning, the Division of Particle and Fields (DPF) of the American Physical Society (APS) began to prepare a new community study of U.S. high energy physics (HEP) for the decade of 2025 – 2035, and beyond. This “Snowmass 2021” HEP Community Planning Exercise began formally with a kick-off meeting at the 2020 APS April Meeting and a Community-wide Planning Meeting in October of 2020. The exercise was to conclude in July of 2021 with a workshop in Seattle hosted by the University of Washington. The COVID-19 pandemic severely disrupted these plans. Work was paused from January to September of 2021 to lighten the burden on our younger scientists. We resumed work by September of 2021 and, despite the continuing challenges of COVID-19, our community was well prepared for the Seattle meeting, which had been rescheduled for July 17–26, 2022.

Improving Fission Products at CARIBU: Near Field Detection (Q4/FY23 Quarterly Progress Report)

We have addressed another round of referees’ comments and resubmitted our mass measurement of the isomer and ground state of 128 Sb to Phys. Rev. Letters. One of the referees recommended publication so we anticipate this will be the last round with the referees. This paper focuses on the astrophysical implications of our measurement, as we can directly measure the excitation energy of the isomer along with other observables like the isomer to ground state ratio produced in the fission of 252 Cf. With our summer student Asha, we were able to determine that there was an error in our Gas Counter simulations, which has been corrected and is now implemented in our 111 Ag simulations. This report describes the progress on this effort from July until August 2023. We have paused the work on this project in the last 7 Weeks while the PI was on leave. We are resuming the work on this effort in early October.

5ω Optical Thomson Scattering Report

The 5ω Optical Thomson Scattering system on the National Ignition Facility (NIF) is a diagnostic designed to measure temporally and spatially resolved plasma conditions in Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) Hohlraums. The system was proposed in 2014 and a phased approach to implementation was developed. In phase one the collection system was designed, built, and fielded on the NIF to be used for 3ω Thomson scattering measurements and background measurements near 211 nm (5ω. The initial commissioning experiment for the collection system was completed in Oct. 2016. Commissioning of the collection system continued through 2017 and the system is now fielded for a range of user experiments and regularly produces publication quality data. A dedicated 5ω probe laser was designed and built to allow Thomson scattering measurements in the presence of 2 MJ of 3ω drive energy. Due to scattered light (spectral reflections, laser-plasma instabilities, and unconverted drive energy) from the 3w drive lasers typical wavelengths (2ω and 4ω) fielded at other laser facilities like the Nova Laser Facility and the Omega Laser Facility were unable to meeting the signal to background requirements in design studies. A 10 Joule 5ω probe was proposed as a solution that met requirements. This 10 Joule laser was more energetic than previously fielded 5w lasers by 2-3 orders of magnitude. As part of a risk reduction plan, phase two of the project was to develop a 1 Joule, 5ω laser to demonstrate conversion efficiency >20% from 1ω to 5ω and make initial Thomson scattering measurements in the first few nanoseconds of an ICF laser pulse. Initial tests of the 5w conversion were completed at the Laboratory for Laser Energetics (LLE) and produced record 5ω energies. Based on these results from LLE, a 1 Joule, 5w laser system was designed for the NIF in 2018 and commissioning began in 2019. Commissioning of the 5ω laser system continued through 2023 and was eventually paused in Q1 of FY24 due to completing resource constraints. Commissioning of the 5w laser system proved incredibly challenging. Multiple issues were identified during commissioning and resolved, but issues remain. Currently there is not a clear understanding of why 5ω scattered has not been detected on the OTS collection system. Based on offline measurements, calculations, and preshot measurements the system appears to meet all requirements. Potential target physics issues have been investigated and do not appear to be an issue. The current hypothesis is that there is an error in one or more aspects of the offline testing not translating to expected performance when the system is fielded on the NIF. Additional full system testing in-situ utilizing the complete OTS system and NIF target chamber center time is needed to further test potential failure modes.

Single-molecule imaging of lignocellulose deconstruction by SCATTIRSTORM microscopy

The goal of this project is to build a multimodal optical microscope to measure the binding, processive degradation, and pausing behaviors of cellulases as they interact with and degrade both synthetic and naturally occurring lignocellulosic walls. To achieve this, we will use high spatio-temporal single-molecule imaging to track cellulases, while visualizing specific molecular components of cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose, that make up their lignocellulose substrate. The microscope will combine Interferometric Scattering (iSCAT), which provides unprecedented spatiotemporal resolution; Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence (TIRF), which provides single-molecule resolution of multiple fluorophore-labeled molecules; and Stochastic Reconstruction (STORM), which allows for three-dimensional super-resolution imaging of intact plant cell walls during degradation. Initial studies will investigate cellulase dynamics on in vitro-assembled cell wall analogs, and later work will progress to using native plant cell walls.

Maritime Fuel Cell Generator Project: 2018 – 2023

This report summarizes activity in the Maritime Fuel Cell (MarFC) Generator Project from 2018 – 2023. FY 2018 saw the implementation of upgrades and repairs, making the unit more reliable and operator friendly. In FY2019 the team engaged the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) to use the MarFC to provide zero-emission shore power to the research vessel R/V Robert Gordon Sproul while in port at the Nimitz Marine Facility in San Diego, CA. In FY2020, the MarFC unit was shipped to San Diego, CA. A fueling contract with IGX was established to support MarFC operations at SIO, with renewable hydrogen provided by the California State University Los Angeles (CSULA) hydrogen station. The project team (Sandia, Cummins/Hydrogenics) provided training to SIO staff on the technical details of the MarFC, the safe use of hydrogen in general and the MarFC in particular. The first fueling of the unit at the SIO pier was successfully completed by IGX. The first powering of a vessel with fuel-cell shore power was conducted with the R/V Robert Gordon Sproul. While the mechanical systems (lights, AC, ventilation, hydraulics, pumps and cranes) were powered without incident, problems arose when powering the computer systems. Inspections carried out in FY2021 revealed the MarFC needed routine maintenance. Maintenance was performed and the unit was upgraded. The MarFC was turned on after the year pause, and initial test data on power levels and stability were collected. FY2022 was a year spent repairing, upgrading and testing the MarFC unit. Spikes in power and voltage were observed above 60 kW that could potentially extend below 60 kW with time. Such spikes could cause problems with the Sproul electrical systems. These age-related problems, the extended time for the Sproul spent in dry dock for scheduled upgrades, and the associated need to reschedule the vessel’s high-priority science missions made it no longer possible to deploy the unit at SIO. After due consideration, the decision was made by DOE, MARAD and the project team to cease the deployment, remove the MarFC from SIO, and not pursue further deployment activities. On December 2, 2022, the MarFC unit was removed from the Scripps Nimitz Marine Facility and shipped to Fridley, Michigan. The Cummins/Hydrogenics plan for the unit is to assess the condition of the MarFC subcomponents, and then use it as a training/learning system for technical employees new to hydrogen fuel-cell technology. After summarizing project activity from 2018 – 2023, this report provides a review of lessons learned. This report provides next steps in contemplating a follow-on project that would further advance the use of fuel-cell-based shore power in a marine setting. A comparison is made of the project results to the original objectives. This report ends with an accounting of presentations stemming from the project, and a list of references.
