Conservation of Helium while Maintaining High System Purity

Recent helium shortages and helium price increases have lead to an increased emphasis being placed on conserving helium. The need to conserve helium must be balanced with need to maintain the high levels of purity necessary to prevent operational problems caused by contamination. Helium losses and contamination control are especially important for test stands that have cryogenic distribution systems operating continuously with frequent changeover of cryogenic temperature components that are being tested. This paper describes a mathematical model to estimate the quantity of helium lost and the purity of the helium after the pump and backfill procedure is complete. The process to determine the optimal time during pump down to cut off pumping and start backfilling is described. There is a tradeoff between trying to achieve the lowest possible pressure during pumping and the quantity of air leaking into the volume while pumping is occurring. An additional benefit of careful sel ection of pump and backfill parameters in conjunction with real-time pressure monitoring can reduce the labor and time required to complete a successful pump and backfill procedure. This paper is intended to be a tool for engineers to review their pump and backfill procedures and measured data to optimize helium losses, system purity, and labor required.

Cable/Antenna Bounds Connecting Field Levels To Personnel Safety And Electronic Upset Thresholds

We use bounding models to estimate the power delivered to interior ordnance as well as the pin level voltages along a cable at interior electronic components. The procedures underlying these estimates are described in some detail. Conservation of steady-state power in a linear passive system underpins the power estimate, whereas, losses and quality factor limits underpin the limits on voltage transformations. The final levels are compared to no-fire threshold power and to minimum upset voltage levels in an example using a canonical slot aperture and cavity to estimate interior fields.

Commercial, industrial, and institutional discount rate estimation for efficiency standards analysis: Sector-level data 1998–2021

Underlying each of the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) federal appliance and equipment energy conservation standards are a set of complex analyses of the projected costs and benefits of regulation. Any new or amended standard must be designed to achieve significant additional energy conservation, provided that it is technologically feasible and economically justified (42 U.S.C. 6295(o)(2)(A)). DOE determines economic justification based on whether the benefits exceed the burdens, considering a variety of factors, including the economic impact of the standard on consumers of the product and the savings in lifetime operating cost compared to any increase in price or maintenance expenses (42 U.S.C. 6295(o)(2)(B)). As part of this determination, DOE conducts a Life-Cycle Cost (LCC) analysis, which models the combined impact of appliance first cost and operating cost changes on a representative commercial building sample in order to identify the fraction of customers achieving LCC savings or incurring net cost at the considered efficiency levels. Thus, the commercial discount rate value(s) used to calculate the present value of energy cost savings within the LCC model implicitly plays a role in estimating the economic impact of potential standard levels. This report provides an in-depth discussion of the commercial discount rate estimation process. It is an update to previous reports on estimating commercial discount rates from firm-level financial data (Fujita, 2016). Major topics covered in this report include: Discount rate estimation methods and rationale; -Data sources used and data limitations; -Discount rate distributions for use in standards analysis; -Discount rate estimation methods and distributions specific to the small business subgroup analysis. Going forward, this report will be updated as data allow and analyses necessitate.

DUKE PRO STI TEST at 9965 - RANGE 1 (IMPACT NOISE). Survey Profile Report

Members of the Workforce (MOW) who are exposed to noise levels above 140 dBC, regardless of hearing protection worn, are required to be enrolled into the SNL Hearing Conservation Program which includes audiometric testing, online training (HCP100) and wearing hearing protection. Based on the area impact noise sample results, the attenuation provided by the MFCP was protective for mitigating noise to levels below the ACGIH TLV of 140 dBC. The results also validated the scaled distance equation in an open-air environment as the results at K635 (864 feet) were below 140 dBC.

A Particle-in-cell Method for Plasmas with A Generalized Momentum Formulation, Part III: A family of Gauge Conserving Methods

In this paper, we introduce a new family of spatially co-located field solvers for particle-in-cell applications which evolve the potential formulation of Maxwell’s equations under the Lorenz gauge. Our recent work [2] introduced the concept of time-consistency, which connects charge conservation to the preservation of the gauge at the semi-discrete level. It will be shown that there exists a large family of time discretizations which satisfy this property. Additionally, it will be further shown that for large classes of time marching methods, the satisfaction of the gauge condition automatically implies the satisfaction of Gauss’s law for electricity, with the potential formulation ensuring that that Gauss’s law for magnetism is satisfied by definition. We focus on popular time marching methods including centered differences, backward differences, and diagonally-implicit Runge-Kutta methods, which are coupled to a spectral discretization in space. We demonstrate the theory by testing the methods on a relativistic Weibel instability and a drifting cloud of electrons.

Using discrete Bayesian networks for diagnosing and isolating cross-level faults in HVAC systems

Fault detection and diagnosis (FDD) technologies are critical to ensure satisfactory building performance, such as reducing energy wastes and negative impacts on occupant comfort and productivity. Existing FDD technologies mainly focus on component-level FDD solutions, which could lead to mis-diagnosis of cross-level faults in heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Cross-level faults are those faults that occur in one component or subsystem, but cause operational abnormalities in other components or subsystems, and result in a building level performance degradation. How to effectively diagnose the root cause of a cross-level fault is the focus of this study. Here, this paper presents a novel discrete Bayesian Network (DisBN)-based method for diagnosing cross-level faults in an HVAC system commonly used in commercial buildings. A two-level DisBN structure model is developed in this study. The parameters used in the DisBN model are obtained either from expert knowledge or through machine-learning strategies from normal system operation data. Meanwhile, the probability parameters are discretized to incorporate the uncertainties associated with typical expert knowledge. Thus, the developed DisBN method addresses the challenges many other BN based FDD methods face, i.e., the lack of fault data for BN parameter training. The developed DisBN represents causal relationships between a fault and its cross-level system impacts (i.e., fault symptoms or fault indicators) by considering how fault impacts propagate across different levels in an HVAC system. A weather and schedule information-based Pattern Matching (WPM) method is employed to automatically create WPM baseline data sets for each incoming real time snapshot data from the building systems. Consequently, BN inference and real-time diagnostics are achieved by comparing incoming snapshot data and the WPM baseline data set. The proposed method is evaluated using experimental fault data collected in a campus building. Fault diagnosis results demonstrate that the WPM-DisBN method is effective at locating the root causes of cross-level faults in an HVAC system.

Sources of Conservatism in Making Corrective Action Decisions at the NNSS - 20477

During the course of closing nuclear testing release sites at the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) under the Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order (FFACO) using the Risk-Based Corrective Action (RBCA) evaluation process, conservative assumptions and estimates were used in many phases of the work. These assumptions and estimates were agreed to during Data Quality Objective (DQO) meetings and published in the FFACO documents. However, the potential cumulative effect of these multiple sources of conservatism was not evaluated. The RBCA process ensures that corrective action decisions minimize the risk of making Type I errors (not applying corrective action to areas that exceed action levels) at the expense of making Type II errors (applying corrective action to areas that do not exceed action levels). Rather than fully characterizing the spatial distribution of contaminants throughout each site, the RBCA process uses a bounding methodology that conservatively estimates spatial boundaries beyond which contamination is not present that exceed corrective action levels. This process accepts that these boundaries may encompass areas that do not exceed corrective action levels and, therefore, may be somewhat larger than for fully characterized sites. This is justified at sites where the reduction in investigation costs are more than any potential increase in corrective action costs. To minimize the risk of making Type I errors, conservatism was used throughout the process. This study documents the many sources of conservatism used in the RBCA process. Conservatism was used in the RBCA process in determining potential receptors, determining action levels, collecting samples, converting sample results into receptor dose, and accounting for uncertainty. This provides decision-makers with a high level of confidence that unacceptable risk to receptors will not result from exposure to residual contamination outside the corrective action boundaries. However, it does not provide an estimate of the actual extent of areas exceeding action levels. This study provides an evaluation of the effects of compounding conservatism on RBCA process decisions.

Tailoring a Global Iron Regulon to a Uropathogen

Pathogenicity islands and plasmids bear genes for pathogenesis of various Escherichia coli pathotypes. Although there is a basic understanding of the contribution of these virulence factors to disease, less is known about variation in regulatory networks in determining disease phenotypes. Here, we dissected a regulatory network directed by the conserved iron homeostasis regulator, ferric uptake regulator (Fur), in uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) strain CFT073. Comparing anaerobic genome-scale Fur DNA binding with Fur-dependent transcript expression and protein levels of the uropathogen to that of commensal E. coli K-12 strain MG1655 showed that the Fur regulon of the core genome is conserved but also includes genes within the pathogenicity/genetic islands. Unexpectedly, regulons indicative of amino acid limitation and the general stress response were also indirectly activated in the uropathogen fur mutant, suggesting that induction of the Fur regulon increases amino acid demand. Using RpoS levels as a proxy, addition of amino acids mitigated the stress. In addition, iron chelation increased RpoS to the same levels as in the fur mutant. The increased amino acid demand of the fur mutant or iron chelated cells was exacerbated by aerobic conditions, which could be partly explained by the O 2 -dependent synthesis of the siderophore aerobactin, encoded by an operon within a pathogenicity island. Taken together, these data suggest that in the iron-poor environment of the urinary tract, amino acid availability could play a role in the proliferation of this uropathogen, particularly if there is sufficient O 2 to produce aerobactin. IMPORTANCE Host iron restriction is a common mechanism for limiting the growth of pathogens. We compared the regulatory network controlled by Fur in uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) to that of nonpathogenic E. coli K-12 to uncover strategies that pathogenic bacteria use to overcome iron limitation. Although iron homeostasis functions were regulated by Fur in the uropathogen as expected, a surprising finding was the activation of the stringent and general stress responses in the uropathogen fur mutant, which was rescued by amino acid addition. This coordinated global response could be important in controlling growth and survival under nutrient-limiting conditions and during transitions from the nutrient-rich environment of the lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract to the more restrictive environment of the urinary tract. The coupling of the response of iron limitation to increased demand for amino acids could be a critical attribute that sets UPEC apart from other E. coli pathotypes.

Evaluation of phase change thermal storage in a cascade heat pump

Here this study proposes a low-global warming potential cascade heat pump system with integrated phase change material (PCM) for combined space heating and cooling. PCM is embedded in the intermediate heat exchanger that couples an outdoor R290 refrigerant circuit and an indoor CO 2 circuit. We used a clustering method to develop seasonally representative load and ambient temperature profiles for residential buildings in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We simulated the system peak shaving performance on the selected representative days, assuming three different PCM options including ice (0 °C), tetradecane (5.6 °C), and a commercially available PCM, SP9 (10.5 °C). The baseline was the same cascade system without thermal storage. We investigated the effect of both thermal energy storage capacity (kWh th ) and PCM transition temperature on system performance. The results show that higher thermal energy storage capacity shaves more electric energy until it reaches a maximum value set by the load characteristics of the building. SP9, with the highest transition temperature, shaves the most electric energy, while ice shaves the least. Moreover, ice has the highest charging cost, especially in the cooling season when the outdoor circuit has to operate at an evaporating temperature lower than 0 °C to make ice. Our results show that SP9 presents the lowest levelized cost of storage, closely followed by ice. A lower off-peak electricity rate benefits ice more than SP9 or tetradecane because ice has the largest charging cost penalty.

Excitation and tunneling spectra of a fractional quantum Hall system in the thin-cylinder limit

Here, the excitations of fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) states have been largely inaccessible to experimental probes until recently. New electron scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) results from Hu et al. [Nat. Phys. 21, 716 (2025)] show promise in detecting and identifying these excited states via the local density of states (LDOS) spectrum. On a torus, there exists a mapping from the lowest Landau level states to a 1D lattice with a Hamiltonian that features dipole moment conservation. In this work, we apply perturbation theory starting from the thin-cylinder limit (𝐿 𝑥 → ∞, 𝐿 𝑦 < 𝑙 𝐵 for torus dimensions 𝐿 𝑥 and 𝐿 𝑦 and magnetic length 𝑙 𝐵 ) to obtain an analytical approach to the low-lying neutral and charged excitations of the 𝜈 = 1/3 FQHE state. Notably, in the thin cylinder, we can systematically enumerate all the low-lying excitations by the patterns of “dipoles” formed by the electron occupation pattern on the 1D lattice. We find that the thin-cylinder limit predicts a significant dispersion of the low-lying neutral excitations but sharpness of the LDOS spectra, which measure charged excitations. We also discuss connections between our work and several different approaches to the FQHE STM spectra, including those using the composite fermion theory. Numerical exact diagonalization beyond the thin-cylinder limit suggests that the energies of charged excitations remain largely confined to a narrow range of energies, which in experiments might appear as a single peak.

Linking the Salmonella enterica 1,2-Propanediol Utilization Bacterial Microcompartment Shell to the Enzymatic Core via the Shell Protein PduB

Bacterial microcompartments (MCPs) are protein-based organelles that house the enzymatic machinery for metabolism of niche carbon sources, allowing enteric pathogens to outcompete native microbiota during host colonization. While much progress has been made toward understanding MCP biogenesis, questions still remain regarding the mechanism by which core MCP enzymes are enveloped within the MCP protein shell. Here, we explore the hypothesis that the shell protein PduB is responsible for linking the shell of the 1,2-propanediol utilization (Pdu) MCP from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium LT2 to its enzymatic core. Using fluorescent reporters, we demonstrate that all members of the Pdu enzymatic core are encapsulated in Pdu MCPs. We also demonstrate that PduB is critical for linking the entire Pdu enzyme core to the MCP shell. Using MCP purifications, transmission electron microscopy, and fluorescence microscopy, we find that shell assembly can be decoupled from the enzymatic core, as apparently empty MCPs are formed in Salmonella strains lacking PduB. Mutagenesis studies reveal that PduB is incorporated into the Pdu MCP shell via a conserved, lysine-mediated hydrogen bonding mechanism. Finally, growth assays and system-level pathway modeling reveal that unencapsulated pathway performance is strongly impacted by enzyme concentration, highlighting the importance of minimizing polar effects when conducting these functional assays. Together, these results provide insight into the mechanism of enzyme encapsulation within Pdu MCPs and demonstrate that the process of enzyme encapsulation and shell assembly are separate processes in this system, a finding that will aid future efforts to understand MCP biogenesis.

A Moderator Test Station at ORNL

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) hosts two world-leading slow neutron sources, the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) and the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR), and is currently developing the technical design for a Second Target Station (STS) for the SNS. Upon completion of the STS project, ORNL will be uniquely positioned to optimize each of its three neutron sources, the SNS First Target Station (FTS), the STS, and HFIR, in a complementary way. Among the essential aspects of a reimagined FTS and the current STS concept are high-brightness parahydrogen moderators—moderators which are optimized for high per-unit-area neutron brightness rather than integrated-across-large-area neutron intensity. The high-brightness moderators proposed for the STS will significantly outperform the coupled moderators currently on the FTS for appropriately optimized neutron beamlines, provided the moderating hydrogen is converted to near-equilibrium levels of parahydrogen (approximately 99.8% at 20 K). The original FTS moderators, by contrast, were conservatively designed to be relatively insensitive to the exact ortho:para ratio, with a consequent loss in performance. As a result, a redesign of the FTS moderators assuming fully converted parahydrogen could result in significant performance improvements on the FTS coupled moderators, and more consistent performance over time for all hydrogen moderators. This “parahydrogen problem” is a long-standing challenge for the effective implementation of hydrogen cold moderators at high-power neutron sources. In addition, the development of new moderator concepts, whether based on previously unused materials, structured heterogeneous arrays, or even simply on changes in overall shape and size is significantly restricted at a large-scale production facility intended to use the neutron beams so produced. Accordingly, moderators for production neutron sources are often designed in a very conservative, low-risk fashion, even though this compromises the absolute neutronic performance. Advanced moderator concepts worthy of study include features that could not be tested without redesigning and redeploying the entire existing reflector, shielding, and neutron beamline installation, making such development efforts far more expensive than building a stand-alone test facility. We propose a Moderator Test Station (MTS) at the SNS with which we will verify such performance gains and test new moderator concepts. These concepts include both high-brightness and large-volume parahydrogen moderators, as well as moderators with tailored ortho:para hydrogen levels, heterogeneous moderator concepts such as the convoluted moderator or pelletized moderators, and moderators made of materials like ammonia, ethane, and oxygen clathrates, which have not been widely tested let alone deployed at neutron source facilities.

A synthetic cell density signal can drive proliferation in chick embryonic tendon cells and tendon cells from a full size rooster can produce high levels of procollagen in cell culture

Cell density signaling drives tendon morphogenesis by regulating both procollagen production and cell proliferation. The signal is composed of a small, highly conserved protein (SNZR P) tightly bound to a tissue-specific, unique lipid (SNZR L). This allows the complex (SNZR PL) to bind to the membrane of the cell and locally diffuse over a radius of ~1 mm. The cell produces low levels of this signal but the binding to the membrane increases with the number of tendon cells in the local environment. In this article SNZR P was produced in E.coli and SNZR L was chemically synthesized. The two bind together when heated to 60 °C in the presence of Ca ++ and Mg ++ and the synthesized SNZR PL at ng/ml levels can replace serum. Adding SNZR PL to the medium was also tested on primary tendon cells from adult roosters. The older cells were in a maintenance state in vivo and in cell culture they proliferate more slowly than embryonic cells. Nevertheless, after reaching a moderately high cell density, they produced high levels of procollagen similar to the embryonic cells. This data was not expected from older cells but suggests that adult tendon cells can regenerate the tissue after injury when given the correct signals.
