A Six-Phase Space Vector PWM Technique for Wide Bandgap Device-Based Three-Level Inverters

This article presents a space vector pulsewidth modulation (SVPWM) technique for wide bandgap (WBG) device-based three-level (3L) six-phase inverters. Implementation of the SVPWM techniques for any six-phase inverter is complex for its high number of possible voltage vectors. Different six-phase load configurations are also possible depending on the angle between two consecutive phases and neutral point connections. The implementation techniques change depending on the load configuration. Moreover, a common neutral point for all six phases leads to circulating currents. Capacitor voltage balancing is also needed for 3L inverters. Capacitor voltage balancing and addressing the circulating current problem further increases the implementation complexity. In this article, a generalized SVPWM technique is proposed for the six-phase 3L inverters that is implementable using two three-phase 3L SVPWM blocks. The SVPWM technique also ensures dc bus capacitor voltage balancing and minimizes circulating current. Here, the SVPWM technique is experimentally verified using a GaN-based 3L six-phase active neutral point clamped (ANPC) inverter prototype, and the results are presented in this article.

Potential Infrastructure Cost Savings at Hybrid Wind Plus Solar PV Plants

This report documents the creation of NREL's Balance of System model for Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems (HybridBOSSE). Balance of System (BOS) costs account for approximately 30% of the capital expenditure required to install a land-based wind plant, and as much as 40% of the cost of installing a solar PV plant. Hybrid Renewable Energy systems present an opportunity to combine balance of system components to achieve cost savings, and HybridBOSSE aims to provide a component-level model to determine the associated BOS costs in a hybrid renewable energy system. Prior BOS models for hybrid systems (at NREL and elsewhere) have relied on empirical curve fits of legacy industry data, limiting their utility and their predictive ability for new technology combinations and configurations, such as those found in Hybrid Plants. Hybrid plants at the utility scale have considerably more interest in the last number of years, with ever-growing capacities in the interconnection queues, and many large developers pivoting to only consider hybrid plants going forward. As these plants become a commercial reality, the need for a detailed analysis of costs in a hybrid plant to fully exploit the available cost savings grows. The tool developed and documented in this work, HybridBOSSE, provides an open-source, python-based method of assessing the costs in hybrid plants. This analysis capability unlocks greater certainty in hybrid plant costs, as well as the ability to examine scenarios of hybridization and glean combinations that offer the greatest flexibility and cost reduction.

Idaho National Laboratory Water Assessment

Established in 1949, Idaho National Laboratory (INL) is part of the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) complex of national laboratories. INL performs work in each of the strategic goal areas of the department: energy, national security, science, and environment, and is the nation’s center for nuclear energy research and development. Located in southeastern Idaho, its physical footprint includes 569,180 acres of federally owned land. A water balance for the fiscal year (FY) 2022 year was conducted for INL to identify major water using equipment and calculate the end-use categories. FY 2022 was selected as the evaluation year per the DOE Sustainability Performance Office. This report provides an analysis of facilities on the INL Site operated by Battelle Energy Alliance, LLC (BEA). This water balance report focused on the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) Complex, Materials and Fuels Complex, Idaho Falls campus, and Central Facilities Area campuses, which consumed 98% of the 540,611 thousand gallons (kGal) of water used by INL in FY 2022. The resulting water balance identified the use categories for 75.3% of the FY 2022 water consumption.

Scalable Predictive Control and Optimization for Grid Integration of Large-Scale Distributed Energy Resources: Preprint

Integration of a large number of distributed energy resources (DERs) into the power grid needs a scalable power balancing method. We formulate the power balancing problem as a look-ahead optimization problem to be solved sequentially by a power distribution system aggregator based on a model predictive control (MPC) framework. Solving large-scale look-ahead control problem requires proper configuration of the control steps. In this paper, to solve large-scale control problems, we propose a variable time granularity where control time steps nearby the current control step have finer resolutions. The aggregator objective includes maximization of power production revenue and minimization of power purchasing expense, renewable power curtailment, and mileage costs for energy storage and electric vehicle (EV) charging stations while satisfying system capacity and operational constraints. The control problem is formulated as a mixed-integer linear program (MILP) and solved using the XpressMP solver. We perform simulations considering a copper plate representation of a large distribution network consisting of 2507 devices (controllable DERs) including curtailable photovoltaics (PVs), energy storage batteries, EV charging stations, and buildings with heating, ventilation, and air conditioning units (HVACs). We show the effectiveness of the proposed approach in managing DERs interactively for maximum energy trading profit and local supply-demand power balancing. Finally, we demonstrate that the proposed method outperformed other benchmark controllers regarding computation time without compromising operational performance.

Sink Engineering in Photosynthetic Microbes

Photosynthetic organisms must balance harvested light energy (source) with a corresponding capacity to utilize the energy via downstream metabolic processes (sink). Insufficient source energy leads to starvation conditions, while insufficient sink capacity results in an overreduction of the electron transport chain, reduced photosynthetic efficiency, and photodamage. Despite the central importance of source/sink balancing in photosynthesis, our understanding of the mechanisms used to control this process in remains poor across diverse phototrophs. In particular, these balancing processes are essentially unstudied in cyanobacteria and microalgae, which possess distinct needs relative to the multicellular plants that have served as the model organisms for elucidating source/sink pathways. Recent bioengineering efforts have uncovered phenomena that are consistent with a well-developed source/sink sensing machinery in unicellular phototrophs. Furthermore, a deeper understanding of the fundamental mechanisms underlying source/sink dynamics in cyanobacteria and algae may prove to be critical for our capacity to boost photosynthetic efficiencies in these organisms, and enable their use as alternative crop species.

Process-driven roadmap for depositing super duplex stainless steel via wire Arc additive manufacturing

Here, this study systematically investigates the effects of shielding gas, bead spacing, weld mode, and travel speed on the phase balance, porosity, and hardness of wire arc additively manufactured (WAAM) super duplex stainless steel (ER2594). Robotic WAAM was employed to fabricate multilayer walls under systematically varied process conditions, followed by phase transformation simulations, X-ray computed tomography (XCT), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), and microhardness evaluation. Thermodynamic simulations predicted rapid cooling of AM process can suppress the potential formation of deleterious precipitates which was later validated via cross-sectional microstructure analyses of printed samples. XCT revealed porosity levels below 0.2% for all deposits, with reduced travel speed significantly lowering defect volume. Microstructural analyses revealed the evolution of various austenite precipitates, including grain boundary austenite (GBA), Widmanstätten austenite (WA), and intergranular austenite (IGA), sequentially upon cooling of the ferrite phase. Among all process parameters, weld transfer mode exhibited the strongest influence on phase balance; pulsed mode promoted higher ferrite retention (~ 36%) compared to RapidX mode. No consistent relationship between stabilized phase fraction and captured microhardness was observed. This work provides critical insights for optimizing WAAM parameters to control phase balance and mechanical performance, which is essential for producing high-integrity super duplex stainless-steel components for nuclear and marine applications.

Nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in an ombrotrophic peatland: a benchmark for assessing change

Aims Slow decomposition and isolation from groundwater mean that ombrotrophic peatlands store a large amount of soil carbon (C) but have low availability of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). To better understand the role these limiting nutrients play in determining the C balance of peatland ecosystems, we compile comprehensive N and P budgets for a forested bog in northern Minnesota, USA. Methods N and P within plants, soils, and water are quantified based on field measurements. The resulting empirical dataset are then compared to modern-day, site-level simulations from the peatland land surface version of the Energy Exascale Earth System Model (ELM-SPRUCE).

Retracted Article: Distributed energy management for networked microgrids in a three-phase unbalanced distribution network

Owing to increased penetration of three-phase and single-phase microgrids, distributed energy resources (DERs), and responsive loads, the maintenance of a three-phase balance by distribution networks is a significant challenge. Existing literature on distributed energy management for networked microgrids generally neglects the distribution network or employs a simplified phase balanced distribution network; thus, these evaluations are not applicable. Further, the underlying mutual coupling between the different phases of distribution feeders results in a more challenging situation. Here, to solve this issue, this study sought to propose distributed energy management based on a three-phase unbalanced distribution network. Various three-phase or single-phase microgrids, utility-owned DERs, and responsive loads were coordinated through iteratively adjusted price signals. Based on the price signals received, the microgrid controllers (MCs) and distribution management system (DMS) updated the schedules of the DERs and responsive loads under their jurisdiction separately. The price signals were then updated according to the generation-load mismatch at each node and distributed to the corresponding MCs and DMS for the next iteration. The iteration continued until a sufficiently small generation-load mismatch was achieved at all nodes, that is, a balanced generation and load at all nodes under the agreed price signals. Considering a three-phase unbalanced distribution network, the price signals were determined per phase per node. Overall, the proposed distributed energy management coordinates microgrids, utility-owned DERs, responsive loads with guaranteed network constraints, and preserves the privacy of microgrid customers. This distributed energy management method was further demonstrated through various case studies on a three-phase networked microgrid test system.

Hidden Killing fields, geometric symmetries and black hole mergers

Highlights: • Construction of geometric models with a variable degree of symmetry. • Formulation of Energy and Momentum Balance Laws. • Description of backreactions on spacetime geometries caused by dissipative effects. • Analytic description of accretion and/or merger processes in GR. • Exact model for the merger of two extremal Reissner–Nordström black holes. In the present work, using the recently introduced framework of local geometric deformations, special types of vector fields – so-called hidden Killing vector fields – are constructed, which solve the Killing equation not globally, but only locally, i.e. in local subregions of spacetime. Taking advantage of the fact that the vector fields coincide locally with Killing fields and therefore allow the consideration of integral laws that convert into exact physical conservation laws on local scales, balance laws in dynamical systems without global Killing symmetries are derived that mimic as closely as possible the conservation laws for energy and angular momentum of highly symmetric models. The utility of said balance laws is demonstrated by a concrete geometric example, namely a toy model for the binary merger of two extremal Reissner–Nordström black holes.

Graphene-polyelectrolyte multilayer membranes with tunable structure and internal charge

One great advantage of graphene-polyelectrolyte multilayer (GPM) membranes is their tunable structure and internal charge for improved separation performance. In this study, we synthesized GO-dominant GPM membrane with internal negatively-charged domains, polyethyleneimine (PEI)-dominant GPM membrane with internal positively-charged domains and charge-balanced dense/loose GPM membranes by simply adjusting the ionic strength and pH of the GO and PEI solutions used in layer-by-layer membrane synthesis. A combined system of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) and ellipsometry was used to analyze the mass deposition, film thickness, and layer density of the GPM membranes. The performance of the GPM membranes were compared in terms of both permeability and selectivity to determine the optimal membrane structure and synthesis strategy. One effective strategy to improve the GPM membrane permeability-selectivity tradeoff is to assemble charge-balanced dense membranes under weak electrostatic interactions. This balanced membrane exhibits the highest MgCl 2 selectivity (~86%). Another effective strategy for improved cation removal is to create PEI-dominant membranes that provide internal positively-charged barrier to enhance cation selectivity without sacrificing water permeability. Finally, these findings shine lights on the development of a systematic approach to push the boundary of permeability-selectivity tradeoff for GPM membranes.

A general non-Fourier Stefan problem formulation that accounts for memory effects

The Stefan problem is the classical model of a melting phase change. In heterogeneous systems, such phase changes can exhibit non-Fourier (anomalous) behaviors, where the advance of the melt interface does not follow the expected time scaling. These situations can be modeled by replacing the derivatives, in the governing partial differential equations, with fractional order derivatives. In particular, replacing the time derivatives leads to non-Fourier models that account for memory effects in the system. In this work, by using appropriate time convolution integrals, a general thermodynamic balance statement for melting phase problems, explicitly accounting for memory effects, is developed. From this balance, a general model formulation applicable to problems involving melting over a temperature range (i.e., a mushy region) is derived. A key component in this model is the representation of memory effects through the use of fractional derivative based constitutive models of the enthalpy and heat flux. Further, on shrinking the mushy region to a single isotherm, a general sharp interface melting model is obtained. Here, in contrast to the classic Stefan problem, the fractional derivatives induce a natural regularization, such that the constitutive models for enthalpy and heat flux are continuous at the melt interface; a result confirmed through numerical simulation. To further support the theoretical findings, a physical example of a non-Fourier Stefan problem is presented. Overall the development and results in this paper underscore the importance of explicitly relating the development of fractional calculus models to the appropriate thermodynamic balance statements.

Energy, economic, and environmental tradeoffs at run-of-river hydropower facilities

Hydropower’s ability to quickly adapt to variability from wind and solar generation by fluctuation flow rates can allow the electricity grid to integrate more renewable capacity. However, these rapid flow fluctuations, required to meet variability needs, can negatively impact aquatic ecosystems. In this study, we quantified energy-economic-environment tradeoffs at five conventional hydropower facilities (i.e. hydropower produced ad a dam on a river channel) across the United States to identify a mix of operational regimes that can provide flexibility to support variable renewable energy integration and environmental protections. Model results show a range of ability to meet demand from 4.7% to 97.8% depending on which case study is considered. Additionally, when modeling the case study facilities on a range of RoR conditions, allowing a % of inflow as discharge, we found the range of 140–200% of inflow allowed as discharge lead to lowest environmental impact while meeting the highest amount of demand. Our sensitivity analysis results demonstrated the Richard-Baker Flashiness Index, used to measure flowrate changes, and Revenue, were negatively correlated with the percent of hydropower generation within the defined Regional Energy Deployment System balancing area (i.e. region in which energy demand and energy supply is balanced based on the Regional Energy Deployment System model) yet positively correlated to the variable renewable energy generation percentage in the defined balancing area. In conclusion, our results suggest hydropower operations can aid in increasing renewable energy generation while limiting environmental impacts when considering a holistic analysis of energy-economic-environment tradeoffs.

MicroRNA-7 overexpression positively regulates the CD8+ SP cell development via targeting PIK3R1

Highlights: • MicroRNA-7 overexpression promotes CD8{sup +} SP cell development. • We identified PIK3R1 as a target of miR-7. • The miR-7/PIK3R1 axis regulates CD8{sup +} SP cell development via modulating the balance of AKT/ERK pathways. microRNA-7 (miR-7), a distinct miRNA family member, has been reported to be involved in the biological functions of immune cells. However, the potential role of miR-7 in the CD8{sup +} T cell development remains to be elucidated. In this study, we estimated the potential effects of miR-7 overexpression in the thymic CD8{sup +} SP cell development using miR-7 overexpression mice. Our results showed that compared with those in control wild type (WT) mice, the volume, weight and total cell numbers of thymus in miR-7 overexpression (OE) mice increased significantly. The absolute cell number of CD8{sup +} SP cells in miR-7 OE mice increased and its ability of activation and proliferation enhanced. Futhermore, we clarified that miR-7 overexpression had an intrinsic promote role in CD8{sup +} SP cell development by adoptive cell transfer assay. Mechanistically, the expression level of PIK3R1, a target of miR-7, decreased significantly in CD8{sup +} SP cells of miR-7 OE mice. Moreover, the expression level of phosphorylated (p)-AKT and p-ERK changed inversely and indicating that miR-7 overexpression impaired the balance of AKE and ERK pathways. In summary, our work reveals an essential role of miR-7 in promoting CD8{sup +} SP cell development through the regulation of PIK3R1 and balance of AKT and ERK pathways.

Identifying Order and Disorder in Double Four-Membered Rings via Raman Spectroscopy during Crystallization of LTA Zeolite

Fluoride (F – ) has been essential for the synthesis of low-defect siliceous zeolites. It has been hypothesized that F – balances the positive charges from organic structure-directing agents (OSDAs) and stabilizes key building units during zeolite crystallization such as the double four-membered ring (D4R). However, due to the lack of characterization techniques for investigating medium-range structures, including rings and cages formed during zeolite crystallization, the roles of F – in stabilizing building units and maintaining local charge balance during zeolite assembly are not yet fully understood. Here, the crystallization of siliceous Linde type A (LTA) zeolite in the presence of F – was investigated using Raman spectroscopy and periodic density functional theory (DFT) calculations. We have discovered that the F – -filled double four-membered ring (F – /D4R) and the empty D4R exhibit rather distinct Raman features. Both the F – /D4R and empty D4R are formed in the LTA zeolite synthesized in the presence of F – using 1,2-dimethyl-3-(4-methylbenzyl) imidazolium as the OSDA. Observed Raman bands of the F – /D4R and empty D4R, along with predictive DFT calculations on LTA supercells, reveal an ordered distribution of these two D4R units in the final as-made LTA zeolite. The discovery of these distinct Raman signatures of F – /D4R and empty D4R units opens an interesting new window for studying defects in the D4R during zeolite formation. In particular, we have observed variation in Raman intensities of F – /D4R and empty D4R bands during LTA crystallization; periodic DFT calculations indicate that the observed Raman behavior is consistent with empty D4R units containing one or two Si vacancies surrounded by Q 3 Si—consistent also with solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance measurement. These defects appear to heal during further crystallization, leading to the formation of defect-free LTA zeolite crystals. Altogether, our results provide deeper understanding on the roles of F – in charge balancing and stabilizing intact D4R units during zeolite formation.

Single-Step Conversion of Ethanol to n-Butene over Ag-ZrO2/SiO2 Catalysts

Ethanol is a promising platform molecule for production of a variety of fuels and chemicals. Of particular interest is producing middle distillate fuels (i.e., jet and diesel blendstock) from renewable ethanol feedstock. State-of-the-art alcohol-to-jet technology requires multiple process steps based on catalytic dehydration of ethanol to form ethylene, followed by sometimes a multi-step oligomerization, and then hydrotreatment and distillation. Here we report on a new catalytic route in which ethanol is directly converted to n-butene (1- and 2-butene mixtures) over Ag-ZrO2/SBA-16, thus offering the potential for a reduction in the number of required processing steps versus conventional alcohol-to-jet technology. This catalyst system provides the balanced metal and Lewis acid sites required to selectively facilitate a cascading sequence of reactions that includes dehydrogenation, aldol condensation, Meerwein–Ponndorf–Verley reduction, dehydration, and hydrogenation. High conversion and selectivity toward either n-butene or 1,3-butadiene is achieved by tuning the hydrogen feed partial pressure and other process/catalyst parameters. With sufficient hydrogen partial pressure 1,3-butadiene is completely and selectively hydrogenated to form n-butene. The reaction mechanism was elucidated through operando-nuclear magnetic resonance investigations coupled with reactivity measurements. Combined experimental-computational investigation reveals how changes in silver and zirconium composition and the silver oxidation state affects reactivity under controlled hydrogen partial pressures and after prolonged run times. Finally, catalyst effectiveness also was demonstrated when using wet ethanol feed, thus highlighting process flexibility in terms of feedstock purity requirements.

Expression Patterns of Energy-Related Genes in Single Cells Uncover Key Isoforms and Enzymes That Gain Priority Under Nanoparticle-Induced Stress

Cellular responses to nanoparticles (NPs) have been largely studied in cell populations, providing averaged values that often misrepresent the true molecular processes that occur in the individual cell. To understand how a cell redistributes limited molecular resources to achieve optimal response and survival requires single-cell analysis. Here we applied multiplex single molecule-based fluorescence in situ hybridization (fliFISH) to quantify the expression of 10 genes simultaneously in individual intact cells, including glycolysis and glucose transporter genes, which are critical for restoring and maintaining energy balance. We focused on individual gill epithelial cell responses to lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) NPs, which are actively pursued as cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries, raising concerns about their impact on the environment and human health. We found large variabilities in the expression levels of all genes between neighboring cells under the same exposure conditions, from only a few transcripts to over 100 copies in individual cells. Gene expression ratios among the 10 genes in each cell uncovered shifts in favor of genes that play key roles in restoring and maintaining energy balance. Among these genes are isoforms that can secure and increase glycolysis rates more efficiently, as well as genes with multiple cellular functions, in addition to glycolysis, including DNA repair, regulation of gene expression, cell cycle progression, and proliferation. Our study uncovered prioritization of gene expression in individual cells for restoring energy balance under LCO NP exposures. Broadly, our study gained insight into single-cell strategies for redistributing limited resources to achieve optimal response and survival under stress.

Deciphering Catalyst–Support Interaction via Doping for Highly Active and Durable Oxygen Evolution Catalysis

The design of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts demands a delicate balance between activity and stability. Here, in this study, we present a rational design approach that leverages catalyst-support interactions to enhance both the intrinsic activity and durability of Ir-based catalysts. Our study reveals that while Mo doping energetically promotes the formation of high-valent Ir species, enhancing intrinsic catalytic activity, it also leads to a reduction in electrical conductivity. These findings emphasize that supporting doping can introduce both beneficial and limiting effects, highlighting the need for a carefully balanced design strategy to optimize the overall OER performance. Simultaneously, in situ analytical techniques and comparative evaluation reveal the crucial role of oxide supports in stabilizing the catalyst. These findings highlight the pivotal role of interface engineering in maintaining catalyst integrity and the need for support materials that balance dopant-driven electronic promotion with structural and electrochemical robustness. These interconnected degradation pathways highlight the need to move beyond a catalyst-centric view and instead adopt a system-level understanding of the stability. Our approach offers a strong foundation for the rational design and evaluation of high-performance OER electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy applications.
