Numerical analysis of particle dispersion and deposition in coal combustion using large-eddy simulation

High-fidelity modeling provides a useful approach to investigate the particle dispersion and deposition mechanism in pulverized coal combustion. To be able to analyze these detailed mechanisms, this work couples detailed multiphysics models for poly-dispersed turbulent, particle-laden flow, particle and gas phase reaction chemistry, convective, conductive and radiative heat transfer, ash formation and deposition with a Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) approach to numerically simulate coal combustion in a downfired self-sustained oxy-fuel combustor (OFC). It is necessary to explicitly capture all but the highest frequency dynamics of the turbulence and its coupling with each of the other physical phenomena using LES. Effects of subgrid-scale unresolved turbulence on the particle motions are also analyzed by a novel Stokes number analysis. Due to the inherent relation ship between coal combustion and ash deposition, this study integrates the improved ash deposition model into the numerical simulation. Overall simulation results are compared with experimentally measured data from the OFC. The simulation and measured data for the averaged gas temperature and deposition rates agree with 5% and 28%. This study shows that high-fidelity LES coupled with other detailed multiphysics models running on a exascale computing facility can provide a good representation of complex coal combustion and deposition in a laboratory-scale furnace.

Recycling of additively printed anisotropic Nd-Fe-B bonded magnets

A high potential cost-effective and environmentally friendly method has been applied for recycling anisotropic Nd-Fe-B bonded magnets. Waste additively printed Hydrogenation-Disproportionation-Desorption-Recombination (HDDR) Nd-Fe-B anisotropic bonded magnet was pulverized into composite powder containing Nd-Fe-B particles and nylon binder through cryomilling at a liquid nitrogen temperature (~77 K) under Ar inert atmosphere. Then, the cryomilled composite powder was warm compacted into a bonded magnet. Further, the magnetic particles were aligned during post-compaction annealing under a magnetic field of 30 kOe. The recycled bonded magnets have a higher density (3% enhancement), but slightly inferior magnetic properties compared to the original magnets, i.e., the magnetic remanence, coercivity and maximum energy product are reduced by 2%, 3% and 8%, respectively. The scanning electron microscopy revealed that some HDDR Nd-Fe-B powder crumbled into fine particles during cryomilling. Powder X-ray diffraction showed a small amount of Nd-oxide impurity in the cryomilled powder. The slightly deteriorated magnetic properties are ascribed to the oxidation of Nd-Fe-B particles due to formation of fresh fracture surface during cryomilling. The approach enables the direct reuse of end-of-life bonded magnets in an economical and environmentally friendly way.

The role of irradiation-enhanced interstitial diffusion in over-pressurizing fission gas bubbles in UO 2

Fission gas bubbles in UO 2 nuclear fuel have been observed to exhibit pressures in excess of the equilibrium bubble pressure; however, the cause of bubble over-pressurization has not yet been demonstrated. The mechanical interaction between a bubble and the surrounding matrix or grain boundary depends on the internal pressure of the bubble and local stress state, such that over-pressurized bubbles are thought to be responsible for fragmentation and pulverization, when exposed to a temperature ramp. Here, in this work, we investigate the role of U interstitials, produced through irradiation, in over-pressurizing bubbles by using a combined molecular dynamics (MD) and cluster dynamics approach. Firstly, the energies for the capture of interstitials and vacancies by bubbles have been determined from MD as a function of the ratio of gas atoms to vacancies that make up the bubble. Secondly, these reaction energies have been implemented in the cluster dynamics code Centipede to predict bubble over-pressurization as a function of temperature for typical fission rates. It was found that there is a transition from low pressure bubbles (at high temperatures) to high pressure bubbles (at lower temperatures). The cause of this behavior was shown to be the creation of irradiation-induced interstitials that are highly mobile relative to vacancies at low temperature; whereas, vacancies are sufficiently mobile at high temperatures to limit bubble pressures. This result supports the hypothesis that over-pressurized bubbles form during steady-state operation and that this behavior is highly sensitive to the local pellet temperature.

Diffusional lithium trapping as a failure mechanism of aluminum foil anodes in lithium-ion batteries

Aluminum foils are an appealing anode for lithium-ion batteries due to high capacity and low-cost, but their viability has been limited due to poor cyclability arising from pulverization and solid-electrolyte interphase growth. Here, we show that significant capacity degradation of aluminum foil anodes during electrochemical cycling also occurs due to diffusional lithium trapping. Scanning electron microscopy of cross-sectioned, cycled foils in the delithiated state reveals large regions of β-LiAl that are passivated by a surface layer of α-Al, which has poor Li + diffusivity. It is found that lithium diffusion occurs preferentially along the β-LiAl grain boundaries, so the grain structure after initial lithiation significantly affects the trapping behavior. Diffusional lithium trapping is exacerbated by both higher delithiation rates and higher areal capacity, presenting a challenge towards commercialization of aluminum foil anodes. We further demonstrate that diffusional trapping in aluminum foil anodes can be mitigated through alloy design, with the addition of 2–3 wt% Li yielding improved first cycle efficiency, and the addition of 1 wt% Si yielding improved cycle life. These results provide a mechanistic understanding of diffusional lithium trapping in aluminum foil anodes and highlight compositional design of alloys as a promising strategy to overcome it.

Unravelling fast-charging degradation in NMC/Gr pouch cells: Lithium plating and SEI properties

As fast-charging technology expands across the electric vehicle and emerging energy-storage applications, understanding its impact on battery performance and longevity is critical. In this study, 1.8 Ah LiNi 0.6 Mn 0.2 Co 0.2 O 2 /graphite pouch cells were charged at various charging rates (0.5C, 2C, 4C, and 6C) to investigate the degradation mechanisms. Our results showed that well-designed NMC/Gr pouch cells could reach over 1000 cycles with a 2C charging rate, while only reaching around 500 cycles with 4C and 6C charging rates. Fast-charging effects on NMC and graphite electrodes were obtained through a series of post-mortem characterizations, including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Although higher charging rates cause pulverization of NMC secondary particles, the dominant degradation mechanism driving the fading of fast-charging-related performance lies in the graphite anode, where lithium plating and LiF-rich solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation result in Li inventory loss and impedance growth. The postmortem results suggest that the formation of a LiF-rich SEI, which exacerbates anode impedance and some irreversible Li + ion loss, is likely driven by the substantial decomposition of PF 6 − during fast charging, an effect often overlooked in smaller laboratory-scale studies.

In situ microscopy and spectroscopy characterization of microsized Sn anode for sodium-ion batteries

Microsized Sn is a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries in terms of cost, specific capacity, and volumetric energy density, which however suffers from huge volume changes and rapid cell degradation upon cycling. Despite recent advances via nanostructured electrode design and interface engineering, the correlation between mechanical stability, solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) and reaction kinetics/reversibility remains controversial and elusive. Here, in this work, by combining in situ scanning electron microcopy and X-ray absorption spectroscopy as well as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, we have investigated the underlying electro-chemo-mechanical behavior and their coupling effects during charge/discharge of microsized Sn anode. Our results revealed that microsized Sn is pulverized into nanoparticles with simultaneous formation of numerous voids and pores upon the 1st charge/discharge, while the electrolytes composition plays a critical role on the consequent parasitic reactions and eventually the sodiation/de-sodiation reversibility. In contrast to carbonate-based electrolytes, ether-based electrolytes enabled formation of inorganic species dominated SEI with improved mechanical strength, thus leading to higher specific capacity and improved cycling stability. The present findings are crucial for future development of microsized anode materials for rechargeable batteries with high volumetric energy density.

Synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering technique for battery electrode study

Structure dependent stability is a concern for the achievement of high energy density electrode with long cycling lifetime, especially for alloying-type and conversion-type anodes. Substantial alterations in volume upon discharge-discharge process leads to particle pulverization and continuous consumption of electrolyte. Moreover, the nucleation and growth mechanism of Li 2 O and Li 2 S, which determines the rate performance of Li-O 2 and Li-S batteries, are still understudy. Microstructure characterization techniques have been applied to disclose the structural changes of active material at different charge/discharge states. Synchrotron small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) attracts considerable attention because of the high flux, high time resolution and nondestructive characteristics. In addition, SAXS patterns provide statistics structural information of electrode at micrometer scale. The commonly used coin cell with punched holes simplifies the application of in situ/operando SAXS measurement. Here, this review discusses the research about the SAXS technique in the characterization of electrode in different batteries.

Structural and chemical evolutions of a magnesium vanadium oxide cathode under electrochemical cycling in magnesium batteries

The design of cathode materials that remain chemically and structurally stable during repetitive ion insertion and extraction poses a significant challenge in developing multivalent batteries. The cycling stability of traditional metal oxide-based cathode is challenged by sluggish diffusion of multivalent cations and parasitic reactivity at interfacial regimes, including the cathode electrolyte interphase layer (CEI). Understanding the reactions at the cathode-electrolyte interface, particularly those induced by non-stoichiometric surface layers, is a crucial design parameter for both cathode materials and electrolytes. Here, in this study, we employed multimodal analysis, including in situ and ex situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) to examine the surface reactions and subsequent structural and chemical evolutions of the CEI on high voltage magnesium vanadium oxide (MgV 2 O 4 ) spinel cathode during the Mg 2+ insertion/extraction processes. The results revealed that the presence of non-stoichiometric surface layers in the magnesium vanadium oxide cathode drive the decomposition of bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TFSI - ) anion, leading to the formation of the CEI layer. The CEI layer could inhibit the Mg 2+ ion transfer processes. Accompanying this reactivity-driven degradation, the magnesium vanadium oxide cathode undergoes pulverization, forming clusters of nanosized particles. This process likely improves cycling ability by creating new intercalation sites and shortening the diffusion pathway for the Mg 2+ cations. This study demonstrates that controlling surface stoichiometry and engineering morphological properties are critical design parameters for high performance cathodes for multivalent batteries.

Model for determining rupture area in Zircaloy cladding under LOCA conditions

The dispersal of nuclear fuel through a cladding rupture opening during a transient event is the primary safety concern preventing the United States nuclear industry from extending burnup beyond a peak rod average burnup of 62 GWd/tU. The majority of research thus far has prioritized understanding, or at a minimum prioritized quantifying, fuel fragmentation and pulverization as a function of burnup and to a lesser extent onset temperature. Early high burnup loss-of-coolant accident tests performed at the Halden Boiling Water Reactor evaluated the impact of relocation on cladding temperature, whereas historical and recent cladding burst tests focused primarily on generating data related to cladding balloon and burst timing. However, very little effort has been put forth to develop a relationship for determining the rupture opening dimensions for Zircaloy cladding tubes bursting during a simulated light water reactor loss-of-coolant accident. This is significant because high burnup loss-of-coolant accident data suggest dispersal could be limited by the size of the rupture opening or rupture dimensions, thereby minimizing the safety concern. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to build a database composed of all simulated loss-of-coolant accident data to develop an empirical model that conservatively captures the rupture opening dimensions and translates those dimensions to rupture area. Analysis of the experimental data indicates the rupture dimensions are strongly correlated to the peak balloon strain. This relationship is leveraged to develop a rupture length empirical correlation as a function of peak balloon strain and a rupture width empirical correlation as a function of rupture length. Outliers in the experimental data are identified and discussed. Finally, the rupture opening empirical model is presented in such a way for general implementation into high fidelity fuel performance codes or fuel performance codes used for safety analyses.

A strategy for automated core design to increase economic viability and minimize fuel fragmentation, relocation, and dispersal susceptibility in high-burnup cores

The nuclear industry aims to increase the cycle length of pressurized water reactors from 18 to 24 months to increase power plant capacity factors and economic viability. These cycle length extensions will inherently require fuel rods to exceed the current peak rod average burnup limit of 62 GWd/MTU. A chief concern of operating beyond the current burnup limit is the fuel fragmentation, relocation, and dispersal (FFRD) phenomenon in which pulverized fuel fragments can axially relocate and escape through a burst in the cladding formed during a loss-of-coolant accident. In this work, we demonstrate an approach for automating core design employing an optimization tool based on a penalty-free, parallel simulated annealing algorithm to produce pressurized water reactor core designs with two different optimization objectives. The two objectives were to produce core designs with (1) mitigated FFRD susceptibility while achieving 24-month cycle lengths (2) maximum cycle length with no regard for the likelihood of FFRD. Batch size was considered in tandem with both cases to maximize economic viability. The PARCS nodal model was the primary reactor physics tool used in the optimizations and used nuclear cross sections calculated with 2D Polaris lattice physics models. Reactor performance and safety characteristics of the optimized cores were verified using high-fidelity Virtual Environment for Reactor Applications models. The core designs produced by the optimization tool are compared with each other and to a high-burnup core design produced and analyzed in previous works to highlight the fuel management strategies that may enhance high-burnup reactor safety and economic viability. The optimized cores satisfied their respective objective functions, producing a maximum cycle length of 720 effective full-power days in one core design and one that may reduce FFRD susceptibility by up to 50% based on the first-order approximation to FFRD risk formulated in this work. The optimized cores met most constraints but exceeded the hot channel factor limit, especially in FFRD cases where fresh fuel carried more power. Furthermore, this highlights the need for future lattice-level optimizations and broader assembly options.

Optimal Design and Techno-Economic Analysis of 3D-Printed, Intensified Packings for Absorbers and Strippers in Solvent-Based CO 2 Capture

A potential technology for the CO 2 absorption process is utilizing intensified structured packing with embedded cooling/heating channels for continuous heat exchange, which can overcome limitations of discrete methods, such as discrete intercooling and centralized reboilers, to aid in reducing energy consumption and decreasing costs. This work investigates the modeling of intensified packing (IP) for the stripper tower, extending on previous work for the absorber, which distributes heat internally within the column, improving the thermodynamics for the solvent regeneration process. The model includes submodels for steam turbine extraction to produce steam at various qualities as well as a surrogate model for calculating steam enthalpy. A cost model for a plant-scale absorption capture process was developed, allowing for the design of the plant to be optimized, subject to minimizing capture cost using two different power plant flue gas sources. In this optimization, the placement of IP in both towers is optimized to balance the trade-off between enhanced heat transfer and reduced mass transfer volume. For natural gas combined cycle flue gas, the standard process configuration had a minimum cost of $\$$65.40/tonne CO 2 , and considering IP, the minimum capture cost is reduced to $\$$62.73/tonne, with utilization in the stripper column, which reduces yearly costs by up to $\$$2.67 MM/yr. Cooling the absorber through IP, or intercoolers, was only found to be beneficial at higher capture rates, with IP in both towers having a cost of capture of $\$$68.08/tonne at 99.9% capture, a reduction of $\$$12.64/tonne when using only intercoolers at the same capture rate. When capturing from pulverized-coal power plants, the minimum cost of capture when using IP in both towers is $\$$44.18/tonne (at 97% capture), while the standard configuration with and without intercoolers was $\$$45.69 and $\$$47.22 per tonne, respectively. This results in a reduction in yearly costs of $\$$16.98 MM/yr from the base-case configuration. At this higher CO 2 concentration, cooling in the absorber from the IP becomes extremely beneficial, reducing energy consumption by up to 6%.

The Evolution of LiNi 0.5 Mn 0.3 Co 0.2 O 2 Particle Damage from Fast Charging in Optimized, Full Li-Ion Cells

Fast charging batteries are critical to the widespread adoption of electric vehicles to compete with refueling times of combustion-based vehicles. In the near term, adapting current commercial battery technologies to perform better under fast charging conditions through engineering optimizations will greatly expedite the process while exploratory fast-charging electrode materials are being pursued. To do so, the degradation modes in optimized Li-ion batteries need to be completely explored to understand fast charging limits while maintaining a high energy density and a long cycle life. While lithium plating on graphite still remains a challenge, cathode degradation also plays a key role in battery performance. In this work, we used nano- and micro-X-ray computed tomography to characterize the mechanical degradation of LiNi 0.5 Mn 0.3 Co 0.2 O 2 (NMC532) in optimized Li-ion batteries cycled at three rates, 1C, 6C, and 9C, and at different stages of cycle life, 225 and 600 cycles. We report despite using a conservative upper voltage cutoff limit aimed to minimize extensive cathode degradation, higher charging rates and increased cycling caused the polycrystalline NMC532 particles to fracture and pulverize, which likely drives cathode capacity fade and contributes to the decrease in overall cell performance.

Large Scale Synthesis of Manganese Oxide/Reduced Graphene Oxide Composites as Anode Materials for Long Cycle Lithium Ion Batteries

Manganese oxides have been frequently used as cathodes in primary batteries. Applications of manganese oxides in secondary batteries are limited by low electrical conductivity and rapid capacity fading because of electrode pulverization and aggregation. In this study, a solid-state synthetic strategy is presented that successfully combines nanosize (~ 50 nm) nickel doped α-MnO 2 with reduced graphene oxides as highly stable composite anodes in lithium ion batteries. The synthesis approach is easy to scale up and suitable for industrial applications. Here, the rationally designed Ni-α-MnO 2 /RGO was tested in galvanostatic half coin cells for Li + charge-discharge studies. The results show that this composite maintains a high capacity of 615 mAh g -1 even after 200 cycles at a high current rate of 1 C (830 mA g -1 ), and with a high Coulombic efficiency near 99%. The anodes exhibit excellent rate capability in a wide range of rate testing from 0.2 to 10 C, without showing capacity decay. This superior anode performance is ascribed to the reduced size of α-MnO 2 domains that are well dispersed in an RGO matrix, which affords good ionic/elec. cond., low charge transfer resistance and mitigates issues of vol. expansion of the anodic active materials. This study opens up an avenue for developing the manufacturing of high-performance electrodes for real applications, such as batteries in electrical vehicles.

Understanding Stabilization in Nanoporous Intermetallic Alloy Anodes for Li-Ion Batteries Using Operando Transmission X-ray Microscopy

Tin-based alloying anodes are exciting due to their high energy density. Unfortunately, these materials pulverize after repetitive cycling due to the large volume expansion during lithiation and delithiation; both nanostructuring and intermetallic formation can help alleviate this structural damage. Here, these ideas are combined in nanoporous antimony–tin (NP-SbSn) powders, synthesized by a simple and scalable selective-etching method. The NP-SbSn exhibits bimodal porosity that facilitates electrolyte diffusion; those void spaces, combined with the presence of two metals that alloy with lithium at different potentials, further provide a buffer against volume change. This stabilizes the structure to give NP-SbSn good cycle life (595 mAh/g after 100 cycles with 93% capacity retention). Operando transmission X-ray microscopy (TXM) showed that during cycling NP-SbSn expands by only 60% in area and then contracts back nearly to its original size with no physical disintegration. The pores shrink during lithiation as the pore walls expand into the pore space and then relax back to their initial size during delithiation with almost no degradation. Importantly, the pores remained open even in the fully lithiated state, and structures are in good physical condition after the 36th cycle. The results of this work should thus be useful for designing nanoscale structures in alloying anodes.

Ultra-high-voltage Ni-rich layered cathodes in practical Li metal batteries enabled by a sulfonamide-based electrolyte

By increasing the charging voltage, a cell specific energy of >400 Wh kg-1 is in principle achievable with LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 in lithium-metal batteries (LMBs). However, stable cycling of high-nickel cathodes at ultra-high voltages is extremely challenging. Here we report that a rationally designed sulfonamide-based electrolyte enables stable cycling of commercial LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 with a cut-off voltage up to 4.7 V in LMBs. In contrast to commercial carbonate electrolytes, the electrolyte not only suppresses side reactions, intergranular cracking, transition-metal dissolution, and impedance growth on the cathode side, but also enables highly reversible Li metal stripping and plating leading to compact morphology and low pulverization. Our LMB delivers a specific capacity >230 mAh g-1 and an average Coulombic efficiency >99.65% over 100 cycles. Even under harsh testing conditions, the 4.7 V LMB can retain >88% capacity for 90 cycles, demonstrating significant advances in practical LMBs.

Instability of U 3 Si 2 in pressurized water media at elevated temperatures

Following the Fukushima Daiichi accident, significant efforts from industry and the scientific community have been directed towards the development of alternative nuclear reactor fuels with enhanced accident tolerance. Among the proposed materials for such fuels is a uranium silicide compound (U 3 Si 2 ), which has been selected for its enhanced thermal conductivity and high density of uranium compared to the reference commercial light water reactor (LWR) nuclear fuel, uranium oxide (UO 2 ). To be a viable candidate LWR fuel, however, U 3 Si 2 must also demonstrate that, in the event of this fuel coming in contact with aqueous media, it will not degrade rapidly. In this contribution, we report the results of experiments investigating the stability of U 3 Si 2 in pressurized water at elevated temperatures and identify the mechanisms that control the interaction of U 3 Si 2 under these conditions. Our data indicate that the stability of this material is primarily controlled by the formation of a layer of USiO 4 (the mineral, coffinite) at the surface of U 3 Si 2 . The results also show that these layers are destabilized at T > 300 °C, leading to the complete decomposition of U 3 Si 2 and its pulverization due to its full oxidation to UO 2 .

Quantitative insights for diagnosing performance bottlenecks in lithium–sulfur batteries

Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries hold significant promise for electric vehicles and aviation due to their high energy density and cost-effectiveness. However, understanding the root causes of performance degradation remains a formidable challenge, as the interplay of multiple factors obscures key failure mechanisms. A major limitation has been the inability to quantify soluble sulfur species within practical detection limits accurately and to correlate electrochemical processes with associated physical inventory changes. Here, we introduce the high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet spectroscopy and gas chromatography sequential characterization (HUGS) toolkit, capable of precisely quantifying seven distinct sulfur and polysulfide species at concentrations as low as 40 ppb. HUGS has been successfully applied to practical coin and pouch cells without requiring cell modification. Furthermore, our self-developed software, Dr HUGS, enhanced the data analysis speed by over 30 times, enabling multi-source data integration and delivering comprehensive analysis results within minutes. Using HUGS, we identify significant capacity losses from inactive lithium and sulfur during initial cycles and sulfide-rich solid–electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation on the anode during later cycles. Notably, our findings reveal that soluble polysulfides have minimal contributions to capacity loss, challenging long-standing assumptions. Moreover, HUGS demonstrates that constant-pressure setups in Li–S pouch cells improve compositional uniformity compared to constant-gap configurations. For sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) cathodes, unique issues such as non-sulfide SEI formation and lithium pulverization are observed, which can be mitigated through localized high-concentration electrolytes to enhance lithium inventory retention. By enabling precise quantification of critical inventory components, HUGS provides transformative insights into failure mechanisms across various electrolytes and cathode chemistries, guiding rational design strategies for next-generation energy storage systems.
