Grid-Connected Modular Soft-Switching Solid State Transformers (M-S4T)

The objective of this project is to develop and verify the concept of a flexible and modular soft-switching solid-state transformer (M-S4T) for direct grid-connected applications. The ability to directly connect power electronics converters to the medium voltage grid (4 kV – 13 kV), and to potentially replace the passive and bulky, but ubiquitous 60 hertz service transformer in the 25 kVA to 100 kVA range, with a more flexible and controllable device, has been regarded as the ‘holy grail’ in grid control. However, this has proven to be extremely difficult. This project has developed the solutions to several key challenges of the direct grid-connected power electronics and realized a 7.2 kV M-S4T prototype. First, a protection method to protect the M-S4T from the high voltages (110 kV for the 13 kV system) that occur on the grid due to transients and lightning strikes have been developed and experimentally verified. Second, the realization and the operation of the M-S4T based on high-voltage SiC devices (>3.3 kV) and a medium-frequency medium-voltage low-leakage transformer in a single-stage solid-state transformer with zero-voltage switching, low dv/dt, and low electromagnetic interference has been successfully demonstrated up to 7.5 kV peak. Third, an oil-cooling system and stable communication and distributed control system for converter module voltage sharing have been developed and experimentally verified. The developed M-S4T has realized a modular universal high-performance power conversion system. This conversion system is scalable to different voltage and power levels and adaptable to four-quadrant bidirectional operation. Moreover, the use of passive cooling techniques meets the equipment life requirements, and the lightning protection scheme fulfills the basic insulation level specifications for direct grid connection. Such power conversion system opens up near-term opportunities, including energy storage, solar PV, or electric vehicle charging with significant cost and footprint savings. In the longer term, the possibility of replacing the utility distribution transformer with an M-S4T will be transformative for future distribution grids with a compact footprint and full controllability to enable high renewable energy and storage penetration. In addition to the main project, this report expands on the Plus-Up projected including as part of the main award. This project developed and demonstrated the technology for autonomous collaborative inverters that can be connected in an ad hoc manner to the grid. The aim of the project was to: (1) evaluate the existing techniques for grid-connected inverters and find their limitations; (2) develop detailed requirements for grid-connected inverters in the modern grid with millions of active nodes; (3) design a unified control strategy that brings more autonomy and intelligence to grid-connected inverters, and addresses parts of the issues with the existing techniques. The proposed technique, called UniCon, enables inverters to 1) connect/disconnect to/from the grid in an ad hoc manner; (2) work based on local sensing. Slow communication could be used for a more optimized behavior; (3) work automatically in both grid-forming/grid-following mode; (4) handle large disturbances, e.g., big load step and fault, in an oscillation-free manner; (5) work collaboratively with other inverters in steady-state and during transients. UniCon can be implemented in the middle-level control; hence it is agnostic to the vendor and to the implementation of the inner voltage/current and protection loops. Furthermore, a new synchronization scheme, based on deep learning, was developed that can extract the grid voltage phase and amplitude in a stable manner. The method is cheap to implement can improve the dynamic performance of the grid-connected inverters during fast transients, e.g., fault. The proposed control scheme was validated by (1) MATLAB/Simulink; (2) hardware-in-the-loop results, and; (3) experimental results using three inverters that form a microgrid in a down-scaled feeder. Lastly, both the M-S4T and UniCon have achieved promising tangible paths to markets. In the case of the M-S4T, the underlying technology — the Soft Switching Solid State Transformer (S4T) developed at the Georgia Tech Center for Distributed Energy (GT-CDE) has been licensed by GridBlock from the Georgia Tech Research Corporation, and GridBlock has been working with manufacturing partner Jabil (one of the largest US-based contract manufacturers) and system integrator Power Secure (largest deployer of microgrids in the US with 4.7 GW under management), to meet the strong initial demand. Similarly, GridBlock has an exclusive license to the UniCon technology, developed under this award by GT-CDE. The UniCon provides an intermediate control layer that enables the implementation of the higher-level ‘transactive’ control commands for the system. The architecture of the system - slow communications with the cloud for system optimization and setpoints, and the use of locally measured quantities for real-time control, provide a very robust and secure way of implementing a real-time must-run grid that is also secure and stable. This is a brand-new functionality that is critical for the future grid and key to GridBlock’s business model.

Dispersion of cryogenic hydrogen through high-aspect ratio nozzles

Liquid hydrogen is increasingly being used as a delivery and storage medium for stations that provide compressed gaseous hydrogen for fuel cell electric vehicles. In efforts to provide scientific justification for separation distances for liquid hydrogen infrastructure in fire codes, the dispersion characteristics of cryogenic hydrogen jets (50–64 K) from high aspect ratio nozzles have been measured at 3 and 5 bar abs stagnation pressures. These nozzles are more characteristic of unintended leaks, which would be expected to be cracks, rather than conventional round nozzles. Spontaneous Raman scattering was used to measure the concentration and temperature field along the major and minor axes. Within the field of interrogation, the axis-switching phenomena was not observed, but rather a self-similar Gaussian-profile flow regime similar to room temperature or cryogenic hydrogen releases through round nozzles. The concentration decay rate and half-widths for the planar cryogenic jets were found to be nominally equivalent to that of round nozzle cryogenic hydrogen jets indicating a similar flammable envelope. The results from these experiments will be used to validate models for cryogenic hydrogen dispersion that will be used for simulations of alternative scenarios and quantitative risk assessment.

Thermal Management Challenges and Technology Options for Lunar Regenerative Fuel Cells

Regenerative Fuel Cells (RFCs) enable lunar surface hardware, from pressurized rovers to surface habitats, to survive the lunar night by providing the required energy storage with a lower mass than state of the art battery systems. RFCs consist of fuel cell and electrolyzer electrochemical stack(s), a fluidic balance of plant, and electrical balance of plant. Fuel cells operate by converting the stored chemical energy of reactants into DC electrical power, heat, and water. When supplied DC power from an available external source, electrolyzers regenerate the reactants through electrolysis. The balance of plant is a critical part of the integrated system consisting of many individual components and provides fluid pressure management and conditioning, fluid storage, and thermal management. Component technology development is required to create an RFC system that will be capable of surviving the harsh lunar environment and maximize specific energy (W-hr/kg). One critical component requiring development includes a kW-scale high flux thermal switch. The primary requirement for the thermal switch is the ability to maintain low thermal resistance with the RFC heat rejection interface during the lunar day to maximize heat rejection while switching to a high thermal resistance during the lunar night such that the RFC can conserve as much thermal energy as possible. Different technology including freeze tolerant pumped loop, passive louvers, and variable conductance heat pipes were assessed as potential solutions. NASA is exploring development options through internal and external partnerships to develop this technology critical for a spaceflight RFC system.

Hybrid MBE Route to Adsorption-Controlled Growth of BaTiO 3 Membranes with Robust Polarization Switching

Freestanding ferroelectric membranes are promising for flexible electronics, nonvolatile memory, photonics, and spintronics, but their synthesis is challenged by the need for reproducibility with precise stoichiometric control. Here, we demonstrate the adsorption-controlled growth of single-crystalline, epitaxial BaTiO 3 films by hybrid molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on a binary oxide sacrificial layer. Using a simple water-droplet lift-off method, we obtained submillimeter- to millimeter-sized membranes that retained crystallinity, as confirmed by high-resolution X-ray diffraction, and exhibited robust tetragonal symmetry, as verified by Raman spectroscopy. Impedance spectroscopy confirmed a high dielectric constant of ∼1340, reflecting the robust dielectric response of the membranes. Ferroelectric functionality was revealed by piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM) and further verified by polarization-electric field (P-E) loop measurements with Positive-Up-Negative-Down (PUND). The P-E loops exhibited a remnant polarization of ∼5 μC cm –2 and a coercive field of ∼63 kV cm –1 . Furthermore, these results were interpreted in relation to c- and a-domain configurations.

Benefits of Dual Fuel Heat Pump Grid-responsive Control: A Model-based Control Optimization Approach Using Building and Equipment Co-simulation

Conventional dual fuel heat pumps lack the intelligent control mechanisms to efficiently manage the switch between heat pump and furnace, leading to sub-optimal energy usage and, in some cases, increased operating costs. To resolve this gap, this study applies optimized control on hybrid heat pumps. With a focus on equipment control strategies, we compare the performances of five spacing heating equipment, including a conventional heat pump (HP), a conventional furnace, a dual fuel heat pump (DFHP) with conventional control, a dual fuel heat pump with smart control, and a novel seamlessly fuel flexible heat pump (SFFHP). While DFHP runs on either gas or electricity at any given moment, SFFHP concurrently consumes gas and electricity by continuously optimizing the proportion of each. In this research, a co-simulation framework is developed by integrating a building envelope model with a physics-based heat pump simulation model to analyze the benefits of grid-responsive controls of DFHP and SFFHP. The model-based optimal controls adjust the operation of the heat pump and gas furnace based on utility price signals and marginal grid emission to minimize utility cost and CO 2 emissions for multiple climate zones, different utility tariffs, and marginal grid emission scenarios. Case studies in Chicago and Los Angeles demonstrate that SFFHP and DFHP, with model-based optimal control, can deliver significant reductions in peak demand, utility cost, and CO 2 emission. In Chicago, SFFHP and smart controlled DFHP yield up to 64.7% and 61.7% utility cost reduction and up to 15.7% and 8.5% CO 2 emission reduction compared to the gas furnace. In Los Angeles, SFFHP and smart controlled DFHP achieve up to 43.6% and 40.1% utility cost reduction and up to 13.8% and 14.1% CO2 emission reduction compared to conventional heat pumps. In conclusion, by leveraging the fuel flexibility nature of dual fuel heat pumps, the model-based control optimization approach makes dual fuel heat pump an attractive option for demand response programs.

Rotary Stirling-Cycle Engine And Generator

Proposed electric-power generator comprises three motor generators coordinated by microprocessor and driven by rotary Stirling-cycle heat engine. Combination offers thermodynamic efficiency of Stirling cycle, relatively low vibration, and automatic adjustment of operating parameters to suit changing load on generator. Rotary Stirling cycle engine converts heat to power via compression and expansion of working gas between three pairs of rotary pistons on three concentric shafts in phased motion. Three motor/generators each connected to one of concentric shafts, can alternately move and be moved by pistons. Microprocessor coordinates their operation, including switching between motor and generator modes at appropriate times during each cycle.

Pressure-Application Device for Testing Pressure Sensors

A portable pressure-application device has been designed and built for use in testing and calibrating piezoelectric pressure transducers in the field. The device generates pressure pulses of known amplitude. A pressure pulse (in contradistinction to a steady pressure) is needed because in the presence of a steady pressure, the electrical output of a piezoelectric pressure transducer decays rapidly with time. The device includes a stainless- steel compressed-air-storage cylinder of 500 cu cm volume. A manual hand pump with check valves and a pressure gauge are located at one end of the cylinder. A three-way solenoid valve that controls the release of pressurized air is located at the other end of the cylinder. Power for the device is provided by a 3.7-V cordless-telephone battery. The valve is controlled by means of a pushbutton switch, which activates a 5 V to +/-15 V DC-to-DC converter that powers the solenoid. The outlet of the solenoid valve is connected to the pressure transducer to be tested. Before the solenoid is energized, the transducer to be tested is at atmospheric pressure. When the solenoid is actuated by the push button, pressurized air from inside the cylinder is applied to the transducer. Once the pushbutton is released, the cylinder pressure is removed from the transducer and the pressurized air applied to the transducer is vented, bringing the transducer back to atmospheric pressure. Before this device was used for actual calibration, its accuracy was checked with a NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) traceable calibrator and commercially calibrated pressure transducers. This work was done by Wanda Solano of Stennis Space Center and Greg Richardson of Lockheed Martin Corp.

Enhanced Performance of Dual Inverter with a Floating Capacitor for Motor Drive Applications

This paper studies a dual inverter supplied by a DC-link and a floating capacitor (FC), emerged as a promising inverter topology for motor drive applications. For this type of inverter, the voltage ratio between the DC-link and the FC can be actively controlled. This ratio design is crucial as it essentially defines both the DC-link voltage utilization and the inverter output quality. Several voltage ratios have previously been discussed to enhance the dual inverter performance, but only one aspect, either the voltage utilization or the output quality, is investigated. As a result, although one performance aspect can be improved, the other aspect has been adversely affected. In this work, a comparative study considering both aspects is carried out for all the possible voltage ratios. Based on this analysis, the optimal ratios for different inverter modulation indices are identified. This is followed by proposing a ratio selection strategy to double the voltage utilization without degrading the output quality. Furthermore, this strategy enables an electric drive to work at a higher maximum speed without flux weakening for a given DC-link voltage. The claimed advantages have been proved by experimental tests on an open-end windings induction motor drive.

Universal Battery Supercharger

During the course of the UBS project a dc-fast charger was developed to be used in off board high power charging stations. High efficiency is targeted to reduce the charging price for the consumer while reducing the charge time. In the meantime, the size of the converter is minimized so that it could be used in small spaces and potentially urban areas. The topology is modular, and the power level can be expanded for charging higher power vehicles like trucks and buses. During the course of this research several key technologies was developed in LESES that improve the performance of the power electronics system used in EV charger. Integrated magnetics was developed for DMCR to improve the power density as well as efficiency of the magnetic components which is one of the main bottlenecks of EV development. Triangular mode EV current conduction mode is using to perform soft switching (increase efficiency) without adding any new components to the existing topology. Passive and active damping are developed to suppress the interaction between grid and converter, stabilizing the control system. Further numerous other technical problems have been solved to pave the way for even higher performance converters in the future.

NiSi: A New Venue for Antiferromagnetic Spintronics

Envisaging antiferromagnetic spintronics pivots on two key criteria of high transition temperature and tuning of underlying magnetic order using straightforward application of magnetic field or electric current. Here, it is shown that NiSi metal can provide suitable new platform in this quest. First, the study unveils high-temperature antiferromagnetism in single-crystal NiSi with Néel temperature, T N $\geqslant$ 700 K. Antiferromagnetic order in NiSi is accompanied by non-centrosymmetric magnetic character with small ferromagnetic component in the a–c plane. Second, it is found that NiSi manifests distinct magnetic and electronic hysteresis responses to field applications due to the disparity in two moment directions. While magnetic hysteresis is characterized by one-step switching between ferromagnetic states of uncompensated moment, electronic behavior is ascribed to metamagnetic switching phenomena between non-collinear spin configurations. Importantly, the switching behaviors persist to high temperature. In conclusion, the properties underscore the importance of NiSi in the pursuit of antiferromagnetic spintronics.

Analyses of Transistor Punchthrough Failures

The failure of two transistors in the Altitude Switch Assembly for the Solid Rocket Booster followed by two additional failures a year later presented a challenge to failure analysts. These devices had successfully worked for many years on numerous missions. There was no history of failures with this type of device. Extensive checks of the test procedures gave no indication for a source of the cause. The devices were manufactured more than twenty years ago and failure information on this lot date code was not readily available. External visual exam, radiography, PEID, and leak testing were performed with nominal results Electrical testing indicated nearly identical base-emitter and base-collector characteristics (both forward and reverse) with a low resistance short emitter to collector. These characteristics are indicative of a classic failure mechanism called punchthrough. In failure analysis punchthrough refers to an condition where a relatively low voltage pulse causes the device to conduct very hard producing localized areas of thermal runaway or "hot spots". At one or more of these hot spots, the excessive currents melt the silicon. Heavily doped emitter material diffuses through the base region to the collector forming a diffusion pipe shorting the emitter to base to collector. Upon cooling, an alloy junction forms between the pipe and the base region. Generally, the hot spot (punch-through site) is under the bond and no surface artifact is visible. The devices were delidded and the internal structures were examined microscopically. The gold emitter lead was melted on one device, but others had anomalies in the metallization around the in-tact emitter bonds. The SEM examination confirmed some anomalies to be cosmetic defects while other anomalies were artifacts of the punchthrough site. Subsequent to these analyses, the contractor determined that some irregular testing procedures occurred at the time of the failures heretofore unreported. These testing irregularities involved the use of a breakout box and were the likely cause of the failures. There was no evidence to suggest a generic failure mechanism was responsible for the failure of these transistors.

Hexagonal Boron Nitride: Physical Properties, Hydride Vapor‐Phase Epitaxy Growth of Large‐Diameter Quasi‐Bulk Wafers and Applications

Hexagonal boron nitride ( h ‐BN), with its ultrawide bandgap and 2D structure, holds an immense promise for advanced semiconductor applications. Scaling bulk crystals to large‐diameter wafers, crucial for complex device fabrication, remains a challenge with high temperature, high pressure, and metal flux solution methods. To address this, recent efforts have focused on hydride vapor‐phase epitaxy (HVPE) for producing large diameter thick h ‐BN quasi‐bulk wafers, reaching hundreds of micrometers. These HVPE‐grown quasi‐bulk crystals exhibit excellent c ‐axis long‐range order. Notably, the in‐plane mobility‐lifetime products for both electrons and holes surpass 10 −4 cm 2 V −1 , which are two orders of magnitude greater than the out‐of‐plane (vertical) values, highlighting the potential for high‐performance devices leveraging superior lateral transport. Lateral detectors fabricated from 100 μm thick B‐10 enriched h‐ BN wafers have achieved a record 60% thermal neutron detection efficiency. Based on its physical properties, h‐ BN appears to be an outstanding material of choice for light‐triggered electronic power switches capable of supporting high ‐ voltage and high ‐ power operations. These recent advancements in large‐diameter h ‐BN quasi‐bulk crystal growth, enabled by HVPE, pave the way for applications spanning deep UV photonics, high‐power electronics, high‐efficiency neutron detection, and quantum information technologies, establishing h ‐BN as both a versatile active semiconductor and an ideal substrate.

Systematic investigations on iron cycling in phosphorus/siderophore systems: Synergism or antagonism?

Synergisms between microbial exudates on Fe (hydr)oxide dissolution as an effective Fe acquisition pathway have been recently addressed and vigorously debated. However, Fe liberation mechanisms and where siderophores and phosphorus (P) coexist received little attentions. Current study systematically investigated ferrihydrite dissolution in the presence of desferrioxamine B (DFOB) (a kind of fungally-derived siderophores) and inorganic/organic phosphorus (orthophosphate, Pi; myo-inositol hexaphosphate, IHP), as a function of solute pH, reaction time and reagent content. Reacted solids were characterized by N 2 -BET adsorption, zeta (ζ) potential analysis, sequential extraction analysis (SEDEX), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), micro Raman spectroscopy and attenuated total reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR). Our results indicate that upon reaction with P-only or (DFOB + P) systems, interfacial complexation partially switched from monolayer bidentate-binuclear surface complexes to ternary complexes, or laterally transformed into amorphous Fe–P precipitates. The Fe-Pi complex precipitated more readily under acidic conditions, and Fe-IHP complex preferentially nucleated in neutral-alkaline environments. Phosphorus slightly promoted Fe release from minerals and fixation to the leached layer or interfacial liquid zone initially, but subsequently prevented further attacks from protons and DFOB. The co-effects of P and DFOB likely correspond to two successive scenarios: 1) DFOB is preferentially attracted toward ferrihydrite surfaces by negative electrical fields induced by adsorbed phosphorus and can act synergistically with labile P–Fe complexes, resulting in intensive temporal dissolution of Fh; 2) subsequent Fe shuttling to DFOB can be prohibited by stabilized, passive P/Fe–P layers. Finally, our results emphasize the antagonism between P compounds and siderophores (i.e., DFOB here) on ferrihydrite dissolution to improve understanding of the biologically-mediated Fe cycling in natural systems.

Grid Forming Fast Frequency Response for PMSG-Based Wind Turbines

Electric power systems are undergoing a rapid transition from fuel-based generation using synchronous generators to renewable generation interfaced by power electronics. In this context, a key challenge is using renewable generation with limited controllability to contribute to power system stability. In this work, we investigate grid-forming control of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) wind turbines. The proposed control and curtailment strategy supports the entire spectrum of standard functions of grid-following (e.g. maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and grid-forming control (e.g., primary frequency control) without explicit mode switching. A detailed case study is used to compare the performance of the proposed control at operating points corresponding to MPPT and frequency control with standard grid-forming and grid-following controls. Further, the results demonstrate that (i) the proposed energy balancing grid forming control is self-synchronizing in MPPT mode, (ii) the (limited) energy storage and controllability of wind turbines can be adequately utilized to provide grid support, and (ii) the proposed control exhibits good performance under variable wind speeds and does not result in a significant increase of wind turbine fatigue loads.

Multiple switch-off slow shock solutions

A new electromagnetic quasi-neutral time-dependent implicit hybrid model for simulating the slow-mode switch-off shock is developed, in which the electrons are treated as a finite-mass adiabatic fluid (gamma sub e = 5/3), whose motion along the shock normal provides local charge neutrality. The model is used to examine the effects of various boundary conditions applied during shock formation. It is shown that, for each upstream condition, two distinctly different slow-shock structures can be obtained: a low-shock structure with a trailing magnetic wave (TMW) and a slow-shock structure without a TMW, depending strongly on the boundary conditions for the electric and magnetic fields at the physical piston which generates the shock. The results indicate that the slow-shock structure with a TMW is nonlinearly unstable with respect to changes in the upstream magnetic field, suggesting that the downstream structure of slow shocks need not be associated with a TMW.

Orbital gyrotropic magnetoelectric effect and its strain engineering in monolayer NbX 2

Electrical control of the orbital degrees of freedom is an important area of research in the emerging field of "orbitronics.'' Orbital gyrotropic magneto-electric effect (OGME) is the generation of an orbital magnetization in a nonmagnetic metal by an applied electric field. Here, we show that strain induces a large GME in the monolayer NbX 2 (X = S, Se) normal to the plane, primarily driven by the orbital moments of the Bloch bands as opposed to the conventional spin magnetization, without any need for spin-orbit coupling. The key physics is captured within an effective two-band valley-orbital model and it is shown to be driven by three key ingredients: the intrinsic valley orbital moment, broken $C_{3z}$ symmetry, and strain-induced Fermi surface changes. The effect can be furthermore switched by changing the strain condition, with potential for future device applications.

Autonomous power expert system

The goal of the Autonomous Power System (APS) program is to develop and apply intelligent problem solving and control technologies to the Space Station Freedom Electrical Power Systems (SSF/EPS). The objectives of the program are to establish artificial intelligence/expert system technology paths, to create knowledge based tools with advanced human-operator interfaces, and to integrate and interface knowledge-based and conventional control schemes. This program is being developed at the NASA-Lewis. The APS Brassboard represents a subset of a 20 KHz Space Station Power Management And Distribution (PMAD) testbed. A distributed control scheme is used to manage multiple levels of computers and switchgear. The brassboard is comprised of a set of intelligent switchgear used to effectively switch power from the sources to the loads. The Autonomous Power Expert System (APEX) portion of the APS program integrates a knowledge based fault diagnostic system, a power resource scheduler, and an interface to the APS Brassboard. The system includes knowledge bases for system diagnostics, fault detection and isolation, and recommended actions. The scheduler autonomously assigns start times to the attached loads based on temporal and power constraints. The scheduler is able to work in a near real time environment for both scheduling and dynamic replanning.
