Identification of Promising Alternative Mono-Alcohol Fuel Blend Components for Spark Ignition Engines

Alcohols are attractive fuel blendstocks for spark ignition engines due to their high octane values and potentially positive influence on performance and emission. Although methanol, ethanol, and butanol have been widely studied, other biomass-derived alcohols may have similar or better properties. However, it is not feasible to experimentally investigate the fuel potential of every molecule. The goals of this study were to develop a methodology for rapid screening of a fuel property database for mono-alcohols and to identify alcohols with the potential of blending to produce advantaged motor gasolines. A database was developed with 13 fuel properties of all saturated C1–C10 mono-alcohols. A decision framework was used to evaluate alcohols suitable for blending in gasoline for spark ignition engines in two scenarios: low-range (up to 15 vol%) blends and high-range (greater than 40 vol%) blends. The low-range blend cases resulted in the identification of 48 alcohols. In the case of high-range blending, only six alcohols were found to be suitable. This is the first study to systematically evaluate all C1–C10 saturated alcohols for blending with gasoline using relevant fuel properties. A novel aspect of this study is the evaluation of the influence of errors in predicted property values. These scenario screenings focus attention on a smaller number of promising candidate molecules, and the approach could be modified for other classes of fuel molecules, engine types, and fuel blending goals.

The Future of Fuels: Meeting Global Decarbonization Goals

Petroleum has served as the source of the vast majority of our transportation fuel for well over a century. During the past few decades, biofuels—primarily ethanol, biodiesel, renewable diesel/jet, and renewable natural gas—have steadily increased in volume though still represent a small portion of the total fuel mix. While initially driven by energy security considerations, recent policies promoting increased biofuel use have been motivated by greenhouse gas reductions. Within the past couple years, significant interest has emerged in “e-fuels”—fuels produced from a carbon source (e.g., CO2) and electricity. If sourced from renewable electrons, e-fuels have the potential to provide significant GHG reductions, though questions of scale and economics remain. This talk will discuss recent research into advanced fuels properties and production routs, as well as issues and challenges that fuels must overcome to power ICEs in the mid 21st century.

[Presentation] Long time scale Multiphysics simulation of spent nuclear fuel canister in MOOSE

Pebble-bed reactors are an important class of advanced reactors under consideration for various applications where their fuel would give a significant advantage in siting and high-quality heat production. However, the disposal of their fuel is not as thoroughly studied as other fuel forms. This article provides an example of evaluating advanced reactor spent nuclear fuel in MOOSE. In this study, pebble fuel is analyzed in a well-known spent fuel canister design to characterize the behavior of this fuel form over a long time scale. The results indicate that after approximately 100 years, decay heat is significantly reduced and the maximum temperature in the canister equalizes with the external temperature. The simulation goes on to an end time of one million years, demonstrating the capability of efficiently dealing with long time scales efficiently. We conclude that the canister temperatures seem manageable even with very aggressive loading times and while there are several improvements to be implemented in the future, MOOSE is currently capable of simulating the required scenarios.

Quantitative Insight to Fission Gas Pores Distribution in Irradiated Annular U-10Zr Metallic Fuel Using Machine Learning

Metallic fuels, particularly U-10Zr and its performance in reactor irradiation conditions, have been thoroughly investigated and are a promising candidate for next-generation sodium-cooled fast spectrum nuclear reactors. Irradiation in reactors can lead to the formation of fission gas and increased pore formation which can significantly impact fuel performance. Due to the large number of pores and various phases formed in metallic fuel during irradiation, a quantitative description of fission gas pores as a function of irradiation conditions is not yet available, undermining the fidelity of fuel performance modeling to support fuel qualification. It has been difficult to clearly detect pore boundaries and distinguish matrix phases from fission gas pores using optical microscopy by using simple threshold methods working with low magnification images. The pre-trained deep learning model for fission gas pore detection was applied to ~10,260 high magnification scanning electron microscopy images. The model increased the accuracy of fission gas pore segmentation to obtain statistical features, which cannot be processed manually. A pre-trained decision tree model was used to classify pores as isolated or connected pores, providing new insight into the correlation between the movement of lanthanides, solid fission products, and the radial temperature gradient developed in fuel irradiation conditions. This paper emphasizes the potential that artificial intelligence-based machine learning models have to accelerate qualification and support nuclear fuel development.

Development of Methane Emissions Model to Assess Fuel Recovery Potential at Gas Well Sites Using On Site Compression

The U.S. natural gas production and consumption has increased 85.5% since 2005 primarily due to the unconventional production methods of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. Natural gas used as a fuel has a lower greenhouse gas (GHG) footprint than coal and petroleum due to lower Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions when combusted. However, the “greener” benefit to natural gas may be negated by leaks in production and transmission systems. Methane (CH4), the primary hydrocarbon in natural gas, has an estimated Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 28-36 over 100 years, meaning it can absorb 28-36 more energy than CO2 which has a GWP of 1.0. Natural gas well sites are prone to methane emissions, or leaks and irregular gas releases, vented to atmosphere throughout production and transmission. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) has recently granted West Virginia University (WVU) funding under agreement DE-FOA-0002005, to “Advance technologies to mitigate methane emissions and increase the efficiency of the natural gas transportation infrastructure”. As part of this funding WVU was tasked with identifying and quantifying sources of methane emissions at unconventional well sites, processing this data, and developing a system to recapture these emissions. A 0-D Simulink model was developed, utilizing standardized methodologies, data from previously conducted studies, as well as collected data from well sites in the Marcellus shale play region. The model was developed to predict emission rates from various components at natural gas well sites as well as the potential to utilize these emissions as fuel for the natural gas powered compressor engines on-site. This model was utilized to run high, medium, and low cases for four identified emission sources, engine size, pneumatic controller count, liquid level production which dictates tank emissions, and compressor packing vent emissions. Due to discrepancies in transient tank emission data, a high and low emission factor for tanks was used, resulting in two sets of 81 executed cases, and 162 unique cases of total site emissions and potential for fuel consumption. Each of the cases were run over 86,400 seconds at a 1 Hz, representative of a full 24 hour day of operation. The fuel consumption offset an average of 557% of fuel consumption on an energy density basis across all 81 cases with the high tank emission factor with a maximum offset of 2334%. The fuel consumption offset was an average of 82.9% for all 81 cases with the low tank emission factor with a maximum offset of 337%. This study highlights flaws in the use of publicly available methane number calculations to determine natural gas’s suitability as an engine fuel as well as the lack of public data for transient liquid storage tank emissions.

Implementation of fuel management multi-cycle optimization capabilities in RAVEN optimization framework

Optimization in nuclear fuel-management assists the core reload engineer with finding optimal out-of-core and in-core strategies. RAVEN is INL’s open source software that is equipped with fuel-management optimization capabilities including single-cycle, single- and multi-objective optimization of pressurized water reactors (PWRs) loading patterns (LP) of a fresh core using genetic algorithm (GA) and non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II). In practice, however, medium and long term planning of fuel-management needs a multi-cycle approach, where the history and availability of fuel assemblies is considered in the optimization process. In this paper, we present a description of an initial expansion of RAVEN fuel-management optimization capabilities for a multi-cycle optimization framework. N-th cycle optimization capabilities that account for the unique history of recycled fuel assembly in the core were added. The multi-cycle optimization approach taken is formulated as a cycle-wise optimization problem where out-of-core decisions are used to onset each cycle optimization. Out-of-core decisions are managed externally to the in-core optimization by a fuel inventory management module. A proof-of-concept optimization problem is also presented.

ECAR-7210 Rev 0 Steady-state Thermo-mechanical Analysis of the MARVEL Fuel Bundle

This document reports the steady-state thermal-hydraulic and static mechanical analyses of the MARVEL micro-reactor core. The objective of this work is to investigate whether fuel-to-fuel contact could occur due to the thermal deformation of the fuel cladding during the normal operation and to assess the resulting impact on the peak cladding temperatures (PCT) if contact occurs. The scope of the work consists of three computational tasks. First, a conjugate heat transfer analysis using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was performed to evaluate the PCTs during normal operating conditions. Second, a finite element analysis (FEA) using the cladding temperature field obtained from the CFD analysis was performed to evaluate the thermal deformation of cladding and determine the occurrence of fuel-to-fuel contact. Finally, a CFD analysis of FEA-informed fuel-to-fuel gap (represented by a conservative 0.05 mm uniform gap) was performed to evaluate whether the PCT exceeds the safety criteria.

SCALE depletion capabilities for molten salt reactors and other liquid-fueled systems

Nuclear reactor systems that use fuel dissolved in a liquid have the potential for enhanced safety characteristics, improved fuel-cycle outcomes, and more efficient isotope-production configurations. In these reactor systems, the fueled liquid may simultaneously undergo irradiation, physical and chemical removal processes, and fueling. The modeling and simulation of this transmutation and decay with material additions and removals is an ongoing research area. An accurate simulation tool is critical to the reactor and fuel-cycle design, reactor deployment, and source-term characterization for these advanced reactor systems. The work described herein involved implementing, testing, and applying the capability to perform reactor physics simulations within the Oak Ridge National Laboratory-developed SCALE suite for nuclear systems analyses and design, leveraging much of its pedigree in quality-assurance and reactor-analysis capabilities. The functionalities to simulate irradiation with material feeds and removals had been added in ORIGEN, and the TRITON reactor physics sequence was extended to calculate the total removed material and track external nonirradiated mixtures to estimate separate processing or waste streams. Results from these capabilities align with analytical expectations obtained from ORIGEN for simplified test cases and with expectations for a molten salt reactor application. This implementation, available with the SCALE 6.3 release, provides for a more efficient and accurate material accountability methodology, allowing for the characterization, design, and analysis of the complete isotopic material inventory of advanced liquid-fueled systems for a variety of applications.

Source term analysis of FeCrAl accident tolerant fuel using MELCOR

It has been established that incremental improvements in beyond design basis accident performance can be achieved through accident tolerant fuel (ATF). However, they have the potential to recover margin with respect to conventional fuel and therefore enhance plant economics through uprate or cycle length increase. To realize this potential, it is necessary to quantify the reduction in source term due to use of ATF, and correspondingly how this is affected by increasing the cycle length and/or burnup. This requires development of a risk informed analysis methodology for ATF under high burnup conditions, which is being developed within LWRS. To this end, a MELCOR simulation of FeCrAl ATF in a recovered Large Break LOCA (LBLOCA) scenario has been developed, using a model based on the Zion Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR). The new user defined material capability, along with the inclusion of detailed neutronics- and depletion-derived parameters such as core power distribution, decay heat behavior, and fission product inventories, allows a more detailed simulation of FeCrAl clad material properties and behavior than has previously been possible using MELCOR. These detailed FeCrAl results were compared with a zircaloy clad model to investigate the differences between the two clad types and quantify the benefits of FeCrAl ATF with an 18-month cycle. Next, the fuel cycle with ATF was extended to 24 months, to determine whether any additional safety margin provided by FeCrAl ATF could be leveraged to implement high burnup FeCrAl-clad fuel while retaining the same operating and safety limits as current zircaloy-clad fuel. For the particular scenario analyzed, the delay to fuel failure from using ATF was of the same order as the LOCA recovery time, and hence significant in reducing fission product release, with the 24-month FeCrAl core performing better than the 18-month zircaloy core. It is noted that for other transients, the reduction in release due to using FeCrAl may be less significant. Furthermore, the material model developed here can be used in such further studies in support of determining the overall source term.

Rheology and engine performance of very low sulfur fuel oil blended with 10% fast pyrolysis and hydrothermal liquefaction oils in a 2-stroke crosshead engine

The performance and emissions for a downscaled single-cylinder 2-stroke crosshead engine were determined for a very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) when blended with 10 wt.% fast pyrolysis (FP) or hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) bio-intermediates. The FP and HTL oils were derived from biomass and were observed to contain lower molecular weight (MW) hydrocarbons than neat VLSFO (which was evaluated as a baseline comparison). The addition of either biofuel reduced the overall viscosity of the VLSFO. Aging tests at 50, 90, and 120°C showed that the dynamic viscosity of VLSFO increased with exposure time up to two weeks. Similar trends were observed for the FP and HTL blends, but a pronounced spike in viscosity occurred for these fuels during the early period of exposure. None of the viscosity increases exceeded the operational limits of fuel system pumps. Engine performance studies were conducted under low, medium and high load operational settings. The relative performance of the test fuels was highly dependent on operating condition. In general, the engine results for the three test fuels were similar, but modest improvements in brake thermal efficiency and brake specific fuel consumption were observed, which may be attributed to the heightened reactivity of low molecular weight fraction of the FP and HTL oils.

A Perspective on Biomass-Derived Biofuels: From Catalyst Design Principles to Fuel Properties

The hazards to health and the environment associated with the transportation sector include smog, particulate matter, and greenhouse gas emissions. Conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into biofuels has the potential to provide significant amounts of infrastructure-compatible liquid transportation fuels that reduce those hazardous materials. However, the development of these technologies is inefficient, due to: (i) the lack of a priori fuel property consideration, (ii) poor shared vocabulary between process chemists and fuel engineers, and (iii) modern and future engines operating outside the range of traditional autoignition metrics such as octane or cetane numbers. In this perspective, we describe an approach where we follow a “fuel-property first” design methodology with a sequence of (i) identifying the desirable fuel properties for modern engines, (ii) defining molecules capable of delivering those properties, and (iii) designing catalysts and processes that can produce those molecules from a candidate feedstock in a specific conversion process. Computational techniques need to be leveraged to minimize expenses and experimental efforts on low-promise options. This concept is illustrated with current research information available for biomass conversion to fuels via catalytic fast pyrolysis and hydrotreating; outstanding challenges and research tools necessary for a successful outcome are presented.

X-ray and gamma-ray tomographic imaging of fuel relocation inside sodium fast reactor test assemblies during severe accidents

The present work reports on x-ray and gamma-ray high-spatial resolution computerized tomography measurements of the Pin Bundle Metallic Fuel Relocation (PBR) assemblies tested in the Metallic Uranium Safety Experiment (MUSE) facility at Argonne National Lab (ANL). The aim of the study was to characterize fuel relocation structures that develop during severe core accidents pertaining to SFR assemblies; these include but are not limited to advanced core disruption recreated in the PBR-1 assembly, and cladding breach recreated in the PBR-2 assembly. We report the x-ray tomography measurements were able to resolve small quantities of relocation fuel; with increased presence of relocation fuel, the x-ray 1measurements spatially mapped the material but could not resolve the inner regions of these. The gamma-tomography measurements showed improved results, resolving the relocation structures in great detail. The upper plenum of the PBR-1 assembly where the molten uranium was initially inserted presented high structural damage, reflected by the partial and complete disintegration of the central rods. Relocation fuel filled the subchannels, adhering to surviving cladding walls and the assembly casing. In the lower portion of the measured section, the tomogram degrades due to photon starvation effects hinting at the increased amount of relocation fuel potentially plugging the assembly; flow blockage in this section was difficult to determine due to the tomogram’s degradation from photon starvation. Small fragments were observed further down the assembly, dislodged from the initial insertion of the molten material. This section was used as an unperturbed assembly reference, with a calculated blockage of less than 1% from the present fragments. The PBR-2 assembly was characterized by columnar relocation structures propagating through the subchannels. Three of the relocation structures were captured in the measured section, with evidence of cross migration on to adjacent subchannels. The measured section in this assembly captures the leading edge of two structures. The calculated flow blockage was 16% in the planes where the three relocation structures are present, but this quickly decreases to approximately 5% past the leading edge of two of the structures.

Post-irradiation characterization of a high burnup mixed oxide fuel rod with minor actinides

The Advanced Fuels Campaign performed a series of irradiation tests of minor actinide-bearing mixed oxide fuel (MA-MOX), the so-called AFC-2C&D experiments, to investigate the transmutation of long-lived transuranic actinide isotopes contained in spent nuclear fuel via fast reactor technology at burnups exceeding 10 % fission of initial metallic atoms. This manuscript reports the test results derived from one of the five MA-MOX rodlets taken to higher burnup in the AFC-2D irradiation. This includes both non-destructive investigations, such as gamma and neutron spectrometry, and destructive investigations, such as fission gas release, ceramography, and chemical burnup analysis. In addition, the microstructure of the fuel was investigated using advanced electron microscopy techniques including electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Here, it was observed with EBSD that the pellet had subdivision of the grains and the TEM observed migration of cladding material into the 5 metal precipitates in the fuel which could have been from the higher than desired oxygen/metal ratio. The TEM also showed an enrichment of Cr in fuel clad chemical interaction (FCCI) layer.

Manufacturing porous U-10Zr metallic fuels with controllable microstructure by volume control spark plasma sintering

In this paper, the volume control spark plasma sintering tool has been designed and applied to sinter porous U-10Zr metallic fuels, by which the sintered sample volume can be precisely controlled. Ethanol and NH 4 HCO 3 are used to control the powder compact or as pore formers to control the pore size and pore structure. Without pore formers, the fuel pellet displays an inhomogeneous microstructure consisting of highly porous and highly densified areas. Uneven powder stacking in the green body results in a non-uniform microstructure, and in the closed-packed area, Joule heating accelerates the neck formation and densification. The addition of ethanol reduces the friction between the powders, resulting in isolated pores formed by the stacking of powders during the sintering. By adding NH 4 HCO 3 , the pore size, and structure can be well controlled, and an interconnected pore structure can be obtained upon the decomposition of the NH 4 HCO 3 . Further, a uniform microstructure and pore distributions can be achieved through the U-10Zr fuel pellets by controlling current flow during the volume control SPS sintering. The microstructure and phase characterization of the sintered porous U-10Zr pellets show major phases of α-U and α-Zr for the sample with short dwelling. For the sample with long dwelling (30 min), the ω UZr 2 in the Zr-enriched area has been observed. The strategy of volume control SPS sintering with the assistance of pore formers could be used to fabricate porous U-10Zr metallic fuels to mimic the microstructure evolution of irradiated metallic fuels (including porosity) and could enable a possible solution for the design of new sodium-free metallic fuels for high burnup.

Site specific porosity-thermal performance correlations in neutron irradiated U-10Zr fuel

In this work, we present a site-specific three-dimensional analysis of porosity evolution in neutron-irradiated U–10Zr metallic fuel using high-resolution synchrotron X-ray tomography. Focused ion beam cubic lift-outs from four radial positions—fuel center, middle, edge, and fuel-cladding interaction (FCCI) zones—were imaged, reconstructed, and segmented to quantify pore volume, density, morphology, and pore connectivity. Porosity increased modestly from 5.5% at the center to 10.5% at the edge, yet pore number density increased by over two orders of magnitude in the fuel portion near the FCCI interface (from 4.8 x 10 4 to 6.0 x 10 6 pores/mm 3 ). Morphological classification revealed a progression from small spherical pores at the center to equiaxed and tortuous networks at the periphery, with enhanced orientation along the radial direction. Connectivity and permeability analysis reveal that the FCCI region maintains dense, highly interconnected pores despite a moderate volume fraction, enabling rapid fission gas transport and lanthanide migration. Effective thermal conductivity models incorporating sodium logging confirm that these site-specific pore features critically influenced heat transport during reactor irradiation. These findings demonstrate that pore topology—not just porosity fraction—controls thermal performance and thermal pathways in U–10Zr fuels, impacting fuel thermal performance in a reactor.

Multi-modal tomographic imaging system for poolside characterization of nuclear test fuels: Design considerations and studies

Testing and qualification of advanced nuclear fuels involves an iterative process of prototyping, in-pile irradiation testing, and in-situ or ex-situ examination. Fuel restructuring and fission product migration during burnup are among the most important aspects of fuel evolution that affect several important performance characteristics such as heat removal, accident tolerance, and fission product retention. Pool-side non-destructive characterization techniques provide fuel developers with tools to understand fuel evolution at different points of burnup. A design for a compact, submersible, and multi-modal gamma-ray tomography system for imaging irradiated nuclear fuel is presented here. Detector selection, collimator geometry and fabrication, mechanical design, imaging protocol and acquisition speed are discussed. Modeling calculations show that sub-millimeter resolution can be achieved in both transmission computed tomography images as well as in emission computed tomography images in a matter of hours. Several design compromises and fabrication challenges are discussed which should be taken into consideration for future submersible gamma-ray tomography instruments.

Role of Inlet Boundary Conditions on Fuel-Air Mixing at Supercritical Conditions

Advanced engine design and alternative fuels present the possibility of fuel injection at purely supercritical conditions in diesel engines and gas turbines. The complex interactions that govern this phenomenon still need significant research, particularly the boundary conditions for fuel injection are critical for accurate simulation. However, the flow inside the injector itself is often omitted to reduce the computational efforts, and thus, velocity, mass flux, or total pressure is specified at the injector exit (or domain inlet), often with simplified velocity profiles and turbulence levels. This simplified inlet boundary treatment has minimal effects on results for conventional fuel injection conditions, however, the validity of this approach at supercritical conditions has not been assessed. Comprehensive real-gas and binary fluid mixing models have been implemented for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of fuel-air mixing at supercritical conditions. The model is verified using prior CFD results from the literature. The model is used to investigate the effects of the shape of axial velocity and mass fraction profiles at the inlet boundary with the goal to improve the comparison of predictions to experimental data. Results show that the boundary conditions have a significant effect on the predictions, and none of the cases match precisely with experimental data. Furthermore, the study reveals that the physical location of the inlet boundary might be difficult to infer correctly from the experiments and highlights the need for high-quality, repeatable measurements at supercritical conditions to support the development of relevant high-fidelity models for fuel-air mixing.

The future of ship engines: Renewable fuels and enabling technologies for decarbonization

Shipping is one of the most efficient transportation modes for moving freight globally. International regulations concerning decarbonization and emission reduction goals drive rapid innovations to meet the 2030 and 2050 greenhouse gas reduction targets. The internal combustion engines used for marine vessels are among the most efficient energy conversion systems. Internal combustion engines dominate the propulsion system architectures for marine shipping, and current marine engines will continue to serve for several decades. However, to meet the aggressive goals of low-carbon-intensity shipping, there is an impetus for further efficiency improvement and achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions. These factors drive the advancements in engine technologies, low-carbon fuels and fueling infrastructure, and emissions control systems. This editorial presents a perspective on the future of ship engines and the role of low-life cycle-carbon-fuels in decarbonizing the marine shipping sector. A selection of zero-carbon, net-zero carbon, and low-lifecycle-carbon-fuels are reviewed. This work focuses on the opportunities and challenges of displacing distillate fossil fuels for decarbonizing marine shipping. In conclusion, enabling technologies such as next-generation air handling, fuel injection systems, and advanced combustion modes are discussed in the context of their role in the future of low-CO 2 intensity shipping.
