M4SF-22LL010301052-SUPCRTNE Thermodynamic Database Integration

This progress report (Level 4 Milestone Number M4SF-22LL010301052) summarizes research conducted at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) within the Argillite Activity Number SF-22LL01030105. SUPCRTNE (starting with v. 1.0) is being developed as the primary engine for future thermodynamic database development. It replaces SUPCRT92 (Johnson et al., 1992), which was earlier used on the Yucca Mountain Project (Wolery and Jove-Colon, 2007). Various changes to SUPCRT92 were and are presently being made. A major change is replacing the original water properties module H2O92D. For this, we have developed a modularized form of the program H2OI95. H2OI95 (Wolery, 2018, 2020) evaluates a newer equation of state for water (IAPWS-95, (Wagner and Pruß, 2002)) that is the present international standard. Thermochemical properties including Gibbs energy, enthalpy, and entropy are now tied to the CODATA standard (Cox et al., 1989).

Clear-Sky Probability for the 2023 Annular Solar Eclipse and the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse Using the NREL National Solar Radiation Database

The National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and collaborators have created a clear-sky probability analysis to help guide viewers to the 2023 annular solar eclipse and the 2024 total solar eclipse. Using cloud and solar data from the NREL National Solar Radiation Database (NSRDB), the analysis provides cloudless-sky probabilities specific to the date, time, and location of each eclipse with a 4-km resolution. Though not intended to be an eclipse weather forecast, the detailed maps can help guide eclipse enthusiasts to likely optimal viewing locations. Additionally, high-resolution data are presented for the centerline of the path of each eclipse, representing the likelihood for cloudless skies and atmospheric clarity. The NSRDB provides industry, academia, and other stakeholders with high-resolution solar irradiance data to support feasibility analyses for photovoltaic and concentrating solar power generation projects.

Mechanical properties of Zircaloy cladding tubes and contributions to M.E.T.A. mechanical property database

To support a multi-laboratory Methodology, Evaluation, Testing, and Analysis (M.E.T.A.) cladding properties database, Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s (ORNL’s) cladding mechanical test geometries were manufactured from several nuclear-relevant cladding alloys and subsequently tested. These geometries were developed as mechanical test specimens to evaluate the properties of tube materials that may be used for irradiation testing at ORNL’s High Flux Isotope Reactor. They may also be used as test articles to be harvested—via in-cell machining—from commercially irradiated fuel rods and later tested. This report explores the differences among axial, hoop, and SSJ tensile geometries with partially recrystallized Zircaloy-2 to test ORNL correlation-based methods on a plate material that approximates, to the greatest extent possible, the characteristics of nuclear industry tubing. Furthermore, several tests were conducted with ORNL’s Zircaloy-4 tube inventory to (1) develop material properties as a standard for future tests, (2) determine the effect of the US Department of Energy’s Advanced Fuels Campaign coating processes on tube mechanical properties, and (3) evaluate the effect of specimen machining methods on the mechanical properties of tube geometries.

Evaluation of Use Cases and Types of Databases for Hosting Wind Power Data

The goal of the National Wind Power Production Data Dashboard project is to develop a publicly available platform to model, process, and share wind power with uncertainty quantification for the current and future onshore and offshore wind plants across the continental United States. As of 2021, more than 70,000 utility-scale wind turbines have been installed across the United States and this number is expected to grow in the next few years. A large-scale wind power production database is needed for stakeholders (policy makers, operators, and researchers) to access easily for their decision-making. Currently, meeting that need is a challenge. Most wind power operators and system operators focus on regions of their own interest, and the data are usually inaccessible to the public.

Utilizing Ontology Structures To Curate the DOE-NETL Carbon Storage Open Database

The specialized ontology for the Carbon Storage Open Database will enable more rapid assignment of appropriate symbology standards for visualization improvements, optimize topical and spatial tagging within keywords, and improve flexibility for utilization in existing data repositories such as EDX. This effort also aims to establish a foundation for utilization of ontologies for organization of other data related to geologic carbon storage in the future.
