High Fidelity CFD Simulations Supporting the KP-FHR

Kairos Power, LLC, is developing its version of the Fluoride-cooled High-temperature Reactor, the KP-FHR. The design uses a pebble bed core with fluoride salt as a coolant. The pebbles used in the KP-FHR have a diameter of 4 cm, with a shell fuel region where TRISO particles are embedded. A Pebble bed core design is adopted by several Gen IV reactors, They boast many benefits, such as fuel integrity, highly efficient heat transfer, and passive safety. However, it is challenging to accurately predict temperature and flow inside a pebble bed. Traditional approaches use the porous media model, which regards the pebble bed as a continuous medium, but with different temperature fields representing different levels, such as the fluid temperature, pebble surface temperature, and pebble center temperature. Empirical heat transfer correlations are adopted to calculate the heat transfer coefficient between different phases. However, empirical correlations are usually validated with experimental data, which usually lacks detail inside the pebble bed. The available experimental data is also generally at a high Reynolds number, which falls outside of the conditions of KP-FHR. Explicit computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of randomly packed pebble beds have only become feasible recently. This is thanks to the rapid development of computational power and scalable algorithms. In this work, we used the Spectral Element Method (SEM) CFD code NekRS to simulate the randomly packed pebble bed in a cylindrical container. NekRS, which is the GPU variant of Nek5000, but refactored to utilize the computational power of GPUs using the OCCA library to run on hybrid architecture high performance computing systems. It was initially developed with the libParamunal library, but truncated and tuned for large-scale turbulence simulation. As a result, the SEM reaches higher precision with the same degrees of freedom by using a high-order Lagrange polynomial basis distributed on Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre quadrature inside each element, compared to lower-order methods, such the Finite Volume Method and Finite Element Method. The report is divided into five parts. We start with a general discussion of the pebble bed reactor, along with a specific investigation into the KP-FHR. The second part presents the numerical methodology. In the third part, we study a modular pebble bed with 1741 pebbles in a container of 7 pebble-diameter radius. Beyond LES simulations done by NekRS, we also leveraged the thermal radiation model in OpenFOAM to study heat transfer under no-forced-flow scenarios. Then, in the fourth part we simulated a pebble bed similar to the size of the Hermes Test Reactor. The total number of pebbles is in these simulations is 34,374. The container radius is 14 pebble-diameters. Finally, the report concludes in part five, with a discussion of future work.

Transfer learning driven design optimization for inertial confinement fusion

Transfer learning is a promising approach to create predictive models that incorporate simulation and experimental data into a common framework. In this technique, a neural network is first trained on a large database of simulations and then partially retrained on sparse sets of experimental data to adjust predictions to be more consistent with reality. Previously, this technique has been used to create predictive models of Omega [Humbird et al., IEEE Trans. Plasma Sci. 48, 61–70 (2019)] and NIF [Humbird et al., Phys. Plasmas 28, 042709 (2021); Kustowski et al., Mach. Learn. 3, 015035 (2022)] inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments that are more accurate than simulations alone. Here, in this work, we conduct a transfer learning driven hypothetical ICF campaign in which the goal is to maximize experimental neutron yield via Bayesian optimization. The transfer learning model achieves yields within 5% of the maximum achievable yield in a modest-sized design space in fewer than 20 experiments. Furthermore, we demonstrate that this method is more efficient at optimizing designs than traditional model calibration techniques commonly employed in ICF design. Such an approach to ICF design could enable robust optimization of experimental performance under uncertainty.

Kinetics vs Thermodynamics: Engineering Photoredox Reactivity from an Upper Excited State of Fe II

Ultrafast deactivation of metal-to-ligand charge-transfer (MLCT) states into low-lying metal-centered states has long limited the utility of first-row transition-metal complexes in a broad range of applications, including photoredox catalysis. Here we bypass such limitations using a Fe II -pyridinium carbene complex to enable electron transfer reactivity directly from a higher-lying MLCT state. Time-resolved spectroscopic data revealed that the higher-energy MLCT manifold relaxes to lower-lying metal-centered states with a time constant of ca. 3 ps. The nature of the metal-centered (MC) excited state as a 3 MC (i.e., S = 1) was inferred from variable-temperature transient absorption studies. These experiments also revealed that the ground-state recovery process occurs at or very near the “Marcus barrierless regime”, thereby allowing for an estimate of its excited-state redox potential. The detailed picture of the energetics of this compound that emerged enabled fine-tuning of competing thermodynamic and kinetic pathways to effect electron transfer from the higher-energy MLCT excited state prior to relaxation to the ligand-field manifold. We believe these results open an unexplored landscape for the use of earth-abundant first-row transition-metal-based chromophores for applications in light-to-chemical energy conversion.

Imaging interfacial topography with coherent x-ray reflectivity

The use of coherent x-ray reflectivity to image interfaces is illustrated using model calculations for three cases: a thin film, a semi-infinite substrate, and a coherently strained epitaxial thin film. The intensities and phases of the coherent scattering signals are calculated based on a fully atomistic model (where the phases are assumed to have been recovered by a phasing algorithm). Here, we describe the characteristics of the effective density that are obtained by direct inverse Fourier transformation of the complex structure factors, using a window function to define the data range. These effective densities include significant artifacts like oscillations and negative values derived from the finite vertical momentum transfer of the window function. Two approaches are described to extract the surface topography from the effective densities for three-dimensional visualization: (i) multiplying the effective density by a phase factor and (ii) analyzing the data as a hybrid structure factor F(x, Q z ). The explicit surface sensitivity and specificity of measurements is illustrated when the film or substrate Bragg peaks are excluded. These considerations show that images of interfacial topography can be obtained using currently available experimental capabilities with parameters corresponding to epitaxial thin films.

Continuum Correlations from CFD-DEM Modeling of Conduction Heat Transfer in Granular Flows

Heat transfer between a surface and flowing particles is analyzed to improve the accuracy of continuum models for wall-to-bed heat transfer in a fluidized bed. Discrete element modeling (DEM) is used to model a fluidized bed heat exchanger where heat enters the system through a heated wall. The DEM heat transfer predictions are validated against published experimental work (Brewster et al., 2024) with less than 15% error. In previous work by Morris et al. (2015), a continuum model was developed using data from high-fidelity DEM simulations of chute flows. In the current study, the continuum model is extended and validated for fluidized beds. The sensitivity of the continuum heat transfer model parameters, which was not quantified in previous studies, is also investigated. It is observed that for a given particle with specific properties, e.g. the particle size, roughness, and conduction lens radius, the continuum correlation developed for heat transfer from a heated boundary to the particle bed depends mainly on the solid fraction or porosity of the particle bed for a given fluid. The new continuum heat transfer model is then validated over a wide range of superficial velocities via comparisons to both discrete element and experimental data. It is shown that this correlation is valid for a large range of particle flow conditions from chute flows to fluidized beds with less than 10% error as compared to DEM predictions.

Experimental and Computational Heat Transfer Study of sCO2 Single Jet Impingement

The present study experimentally investigates the heat transfer capability of supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO2) single-jet impingement. The evaluated jet Reynolds number range is between 80,000 and 1,000,000, with a non-dimensional jet-to-target surface spacing of 2.8. CO2- impinging jet stagnation conditions were maintained at approximately 20 MPa and a temperature of 673 K for most experiments. The goal is to understand how changes in the aforementioned parameters influence heat transfer between the working fluid and the heated surface. Additionally, due to the elevated Reynolds numbers and difference in thermodynamic properties between air and CO2, air-derived impingement correlations may not be appropriate for CO2 impingement; these correlations will be evaluated against experimental sCO2 impingement data. At the time of this study, no sCO2 impingement data was available relevant to sCO2 power cycles. The target surface is a 1.5-inch diameter copper block centered on the 3mm jet orifice. A mica heating element bolted to the bottom of the copper block provides a uniform heat flux. Thermocouples embedded in the copper block are used to determine the surface temperature. Nusselt numbers obtained from experimental sCO2 data are compared to area-averaged Nusselt numbers from air-derived correlations. The comparisons showed that air correlations drastically underpredict the heat transfer when sCO2 is used as the working fluid. A modified sCO2 correlation using experimental data at discussed conditions is derived based on an existing air correlation.

BASIN-3D: A brokering framework to integrate diverse environmental data

Diverse observational and simulation datasets are needed to understand and predict complex ecosystem behavior over seasonal to decadal and century time-scales. Integration of these datasets poses a major barrier towards advancing environmental science, particularly due to differences in the structure and formats of data provided by various sources. Here, we describe BASIN-3D (Broker for Assimilation, Synthesis and Integration of eNvironmental Diverse, Distributed Datasets), a data integration framework designed to dynamically retrieve and transform heterogeneous data from different sources into a common format to provide an integrated view. BASIN-3D enables users to adopt a standardized approach for data retrieval and avoid customizations for the data type or source. We demonstrate the value of BASIN-3D with two use cases that require integration of data from regional to watershed spatial scales. The first application uses the BASIN-3D Python library to integrate time-series hydrological and meteorological data to provide standardized inputs to analytical and machine learning codes in order to predict the impacts of hydrological disturbances on large river corridors of the United States. The second application uses the BASIN-3D Django framework to integrate diverse time-series data in a mountainous watershed in East River, Colorado, United States to enable scientific researchers to explore and download data through an interactive web portal. Thus, BASIN-3D can be used to support data integration for both web-based tools, as well as data analytics using Python scripting and extensions like Jupyter notebooks. The framework is expected to be transferable to and useful for many other field and modeling studies.

Deep-learning-based domain adaptation for cavity fault prediction at Jefferson Laboratory

Superconducting radio-frequency (SRF) cavities are the core components of the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) at Jefferson Lab, providing high-power electron beams for nuclear physics experiments. The facility comprises 418 SRF cavities, and any fault in these cavities can lead to interruptions in the electron beam supply. Cavity faults are the leading cause of beam trips in CEBAF. Predicting and mitigating those faults before onset can help maintain normal operation. Existing models face challenges in distinguishing between normal and fault signals when changes occur in the underlying time-series data, from changes in control software, operational parameters, or the environment. This work proposes a deep learning domain adaptation model that leverages transfer learning to address fault prediction challenges by improving accuracy. The model is trained and fine-tuned using a dataset collected for faulty and normal operation using a data acquisition system in CEBAF. Our deep learning-based domain adaptation model achieves a prediction accuracy of 89.61% of the fault and normal signals. The developed model effectively predicts normal running signals compared to the baseline approach without domain adaptation. This capacity is essential for the fault prediction task in the CEBAF because of heavily imbalanced data containing vast amounts of normal signals. The model performs well for predicting faults several hundred milliseconds before the fault onset compared to other models where no adaptation is applied. Incorporating deep learning-based domain adaptation techniques will significantly improve the fault prediction performance.

Fine-tuning TrailMap: The utility of transfer learning to improve the performance of deep learning in axon segmentation of light-sheet microscopy images

Light-sheet microscopy has made possible the 3D imaging of both fixed and live biological tissue, with samples as large as the entire mouse brain. However, segmentation and quantification of that data remains a time-consuming manual undertaking. Machine learning methods promise the possibility of automating this process. This study seeks to advance the performance of prior models through optimizing transfer learning. We fine-tuned the existing TrailMap model using expert-labeled data from noradrenergic axonal structures in the mouse brain. By changing the cross-entropy weights and using augmentation, we demonstrate a generally improved adjusted F1-score over using the originally trained TrailMap model within our test datasets.

The role of collisional energy transfer in the thermal and prompt dissociation of 1-methyl allyl

Collisional energy transfer plays a pivotal role in a-priori calculations of the pressure-dependent rate constants obtained from a master equation. However, accurate determinations of collisional energy transfer parameters are rare and so most kinetic studies rely on best-fits of these parameters to experimental measurements (if available) or estimates guided from literature studies. In this work, we have quantified the effect of the uncertainty in energy transfer parameters on the thermal and prompt dissociation kinetics of a resonance stabilized radical, 1-methyl allyl (1MA), of relevance to the combustion of 1- and 2-butene isomers. Simulations using literature kinetics models were performed to assess the impact of these uncertainties on flame propagation and speciation data in laminar flames of 1- and 2-butene. Analyses of the uncertainty propagated by the energy transfer parameters for 1MA dissociation to the flame simulations, in particular the laminar flame speed, indicate an intricate coupling between the kinetics of 1MA dissociation (chain propagation) and its reaction with H-atoms (chain-termination). Ab-initio based theoretical calculations were also performed to obtain pressure-dependent kinetics for the reaction of 1MA with H-atoms. Lastly, theoretically calculated energy transfer parameters were used to best characterize the kinetics and branching between the chain propagating 1MA dissociation and the chain-terminating reaction 1MA + H.

Additive manufacturing and testing of a ceramic heat exchanger for high-temperature and high-pressure applications for concentrating solar power

Heat exchangers with excellent corrosion and oxidation resistances are essential for the next-generation concentrating solar power (CSP) plants using a molten salt heat transfer fluid and a supercritical CO 2 Brayton power cycle that can operate at temperatures > 700 °C for higher efficiencies. Techniques were developed for additively manufacturing ceramic materials for applications involving high temperature, high pressure, and high corrosion resistance as needed for the CSP application. Based on a previous ceramic heat exchanger design with its cross-section geometry of the flow channels optimized for heat transfer and mechanical strength, lab-scale prototype heat exchangers, with integrated headers and incorporated flow channel dimensional compensations, were fabricated by using the binder jetting process. The printed prototype heat exchangers were successfully densified through the processes of liquid polymer infiltration and pyrolysis. In addition, thermophysical properties of the densified silicon carbide parts were measured to provide necessary design information. Experimental heat transfer testing of the lab-scale prototype heat exchanger was conducted, and the experimental data agreed reasonably well with the simulated results. Furthermore, this agreement provides validation of the simulation models for their applicability to the development of a full-scale ceramic heat exchanger.

Comparative Analysis of Report-Back of Research Results Strategies for Personal Chemical Exposure Data

Background. Report-back of research results (RBRR) is ethically supported and highly requested by participants yet lacks broadly transferable guidelines for RBRR. Effective RBRR must be responsive to target audience needs and may not be addressed by a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. Objective. Within a subset of our 19 studies on RBRR, we had the unique opportunity to carry out a comparative analysis of RBRR strategies across cohorts with similar development and evaluation methods, yet distinct in life stage, geography, number and type of chemicals assessed, and community contexts. Methods. We highlight key outcomes from three environmental health studies: an ongoing New York, NY cohort (Fair Start; n=486) and a Detroit, MI cohort (CLEAR; n=34) assessing exposure to ambient urban pollution during pregnancy, and a longitudinal cohort in Houston, TX (Houston-3H) following Hurricane Harvey (n=312). Focus group and survey data were analyzed to identify lessons learned and explore how RBRR supports understanding of environmental health. Results. Commonalities emerged in RBRR development, design, organization, and data visualization, as well as in how RBRR can contribute to an understanding of health-environment connections. Differences included preferences for individual versus community level findings, as well as distinguishable contextual considerations. For pregnancy cohorts, messaging was framed with cultural sensitivity, and to avoid unintended consequences of parental guilt due to prenatal exposures. In the post-disaster Houston-3H study, participants requested additional transparency regarding sampling design and study rationale. Significance. All RBRR case studies reported chemicals without known regulatory or health guidelines, so results were contextualized within the study population. Participants across cohorts requested multi-study comparisons to better understand their results beyond their communities. While foundational RBRR elements (e.g. plain language, graphic organizers) may supersede cohort-specific differences, RBRR should be personalized to encompass perceptions of health across different life-stage, cultural, and environmental contexts.

Electronic and Electrochemical Control of Isostructural Ruthenium Hydricities and the Implications for Catalytic Overpotentials

Electronic tuning of metal hydrides enables precise control over potentials, mechanisms, selectivity, and rates of electrocatalytic reactions by regulating bond dissociation free energies such as the hydricity (Δ$G$ H- ° ) and $pK$ a of the catalyst. Here, we investigate a series of electronically tuned ruthenium hydrido complexes that are isostructural at the metal center: [Ru(4,4'-R 2 -bpy) 2 (CO)H] + (R = CF 3 , Cl, H, CH 3 , and CH 3 O; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) (denoted as (R)Ru-H+). A substantial 22 kcal mol -1 hydricity range is available across five complexes in three stable oxidation states: (R)Ru-H + , (R)Ru-H 0 , and (R)Ru-H - . Thermodynamic and mechanistic predictions of electrocatalytic proton reduction were tested experimentally by reducing protons from weak acids to H 2 . Two mechanisms are observed, depending on the acid strength and the catalyst hydricity. The rate constants for hydride transfer and protonation of the catalyst were, in some cases, extracted from the analysis of cyclic voltammetry data. A key finding is a 400 mV decrease in the catalytic overpotential for H 2 production by using a doubly reduced electron-poor metal hydride instead of a singly reduced electron-rich metal hydride. In conclusion, the former also exhibits a higher rate constant for hydride transfer, representing a strategy to disconnect rate and free energy relationships.

Nature of Excitons and Their Ligand-Mediated Delocalization in Nickel Dihalide Charge-Transfer Insulators

The fundamental optical excitations of correlated transition-metal compounds are typically identified with multielectronic transitions localized at the transition-metal site, such as d d transitions. In this vein, intense interest has surrounded the appearance of sharp, below-band-gap optical transitions, i.e., excitons, within the magnetic phase of correlated Ni 2 + van der Waals magnets. The interplay of magnetic and charge-transfer insulating ground states in Ni 2 + systems raises intriguing questions on the roles of long-range magnetic order and of metal-ligand charge transfer in the exciton nature, which inspired microscopic descriptions beyond typical d d excitations. Here we study the impact of charge transfer and magnetic order on the excitation spectrum of the nickel dihalides ( Ni X 2 , X = Cl , Br, and I) using Ni- L 3 edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). In all compounds, we detect sharp excitations, analogous to the recently reported excitons, and assign them to spin-singlet multiplets of octahedrally coordinated Ni 2 + stabilized by intra-atomic Hund’s exchange. Additionally, we demonstrate that these excitons are dispersive using momentum-resolved RIXS. Our data evidence a ligand-mediated multiplet dispersion, which is tuned by the charge-transfer gap and independent of the presence of long-range magnetic order. This reveals the mechanisms governing nonlocal interactions of on-site d d excitations with the surrounding crystal or magnetic structure, in analogy to ground-state superexchange. These measurements thus establish the roles of magnetic order, self-doped ligand holes, and intersite-coupling mechanisms for the properties of d d excitations in charge-transfer insulators.

Towards operational atmospheric correction of airborne hyperspectral imaging spectroscopy: Algorithm evaluation, key parameter analysis, and machine learning emulators

Atmospheric correction of airborne hyperspectral imaging spectroscopy (AHIS) to obtain high-quality surface reflectance is the prerequisite for remote sensing applications. Over the last decades, different atmospheric correction methods have been developed based on radiative transfer models (RTMs), however, the relative performances of different algorithms are unclear. Automated operational atmospheric correction methods to process large-volume AHIS data in a high-accurate and high-throughput manner are still lacking. Therefore, this study proposed an operational atmospheric correction pipeline for deriving surface reflectance from AHIS data. To ensure the accuracy and efficiency of the pipeline, we focused on three specific aspects: (1) selecting a suitable RTM for the development of atmospheric lookup tables (LUTs) by comparing the commercial MODerate resolution atmospheric TRANsmission (MODTRAN) and open-sourced Library for Radiative TRANsfer (LibRadTRAN) models, where the widely-used software, Atmospheric/Topographic Correction for Airborne Imagery (ATCOR), was used as benchmarks; (2) identifying key atmospheric correction parameters and determining suitable sources for parameter retrievals including AHIS, Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), and AErosol RObotic NETwork (AERONET); and (3) testing the performance of using machine learning emulators to speed up the RTM-based atmospheric correction. Results indicate that (1) atmospheric correction based on MODTRAN LUTs can produce surface reflectance accurately with mean absolute errors < 0.05 and cosine similarities > 0.98 compared to field measurements, which is comparable to the software ATCOR and slightly outperforms the LibRadTRAN LUTs; (2) sobol global sensitivity analysis demonstrates that in the atmospheric correction, visibility and water vapor are two key parameters that can be accurately derived from AHIS in contrast to MODIS or AERONET data; and (3) Random Forest emulators can produce accurate estimations of surface reflectance with mean absolute errors < 0.03 and cosine similarities > 0.98 for higher processing efficiency and determine a suitable set of wavelengths for retrieving atmospheric visibility and water vapor. In conclusion, the proposed atmospheric correction pipeline also improved the four-stream radiative transfer theory for airborne applications by considering adjacent effects from airborne surrounding pixels and can also be applied for atmospheric correction of hyperspectral data from spaceborne missions.

Mu2e DAQ and slow control systems

The Mu2e experiment at the Fermilab Muon Campus will search for the coherent neutrinoless conversion of a muon into an electron in the feld of an aluminum nucleus with a sensitivity improvement by a factor of 10,000 over existing limits. The Mu2e Trigger and Data Acquisition System (TDAQ) uses otsdaq as the online Data Acquisition System (DAQ) solution. Developed at Fermilab, otsdaq integrates both the artdaq DAQ and the art analysis frameworks for event transfer, fltering, and processing. otsdaq is an online DAQ software suite with a focus on fexibility and scalability and provides a multiuser, web-based, interface accessible through a web browser. The data stream from the detector subsystems is read by a software flter algorithm that selects events which are combined with the data fux coming from a Cosmic Ray Veto System. The Detector Control System (DCS) has been developed using the Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System (EPICS) open source platform for monitoring, controlling, alarming, and archiving. The DCS System has been integrated into otsdaq. A prototype of the TDAQ and the DCS systems has been built at Fermilab’s Feynman Computing Center. In this paper, we report on the progress of the integration of this prototype in the online otsdaq software.

TRANSFER LEARNING FOR FIELD EMISSION MITIGATION IN CEBAF SRF CAVITIES

The Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) at Jefferson Lab operates hundreds of super-conducting radio frequency (SRF) cavities in its two linear accelerators (linacs). Field emission (FE) is an ongoing operational challenge in higher gradient SRF cavities. FE generates high levels of neutron and gamma radiation leading to damaged accelerator hardware and a radiation hazard environment. During machine development periods, we performed gradient scans to record data capturing the relationship between cavity gradients and radiation levels measured throughout the linacs. However, the field emission environment at CEBAF varies considerably over time as the configuration of the radio frequency (RF) gradients changes and due to the changing behaviour of field emitters. An artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) approach with transfer learning could be a valuable tool to mitigate FE and lower the radiation levels. In this work, we mainly focus on leveraging the RF trip data gathered during CEBAF operations. We develop a transfer learning-based surrogate model for radiation detector readings given RF cavity gradients to track the CEBAF?s changing configuration and environment. Then, we could use the developed model as an optimization process for redistributing the RF gradients within a linac to minimize radiation levels.
