Urban Combined Heat and Power with Integrated Renewables and Energy Storage

This project demonstrated how incorporating a diverse generation and storage portfolio allows an urban district energy system to improve its efficiency by at least 50% and increase its backup power by at least 40% with a return on investment of at least ten years. The improvement was evaluated against the baseline operations for two urban district energy systems (DESs): a synthetic DES and a George Washington University DES. The DES techno-economic framework we developed yields reliability, resilience, and vulnerability indices for urban DESs (including generation and storage) with designation of which technologies improve the security and resiliency metrics by at least 20% compared to the status quo. The indices are benchmarked against baseline scenarios, and cost projections (capital cost and return on investment) to achieve the 20% improvement are reported. The energy management system we developed to conduct these analyses was incorporated into a user-friendly interface that can be used for decision-making by a user with no technical or programming background.

Turbine Electrified Energy Management with Model Predictive Control

Affordability, sustainability, and efficiency are primary motivators driving the future of NASA aeronautics research. These factors are realized, in part, through the development and implementation of new technologies and strategies enabling efficient, affordable, and safe hybrid-electric aircraft. Research supporting electrified aircraft propulsion control systems exemplifies such new methodologies, offering varied opportunities to integrate electric machines with gas-based turbine engines. For hybrid-electric propulsion systems, current conceptual architectures seek to introduce energy storage and exploit electrical power system components to assist gas-based system components. Capitalizing on the electric machines in hybridized engines, Turbine Electrified Energy Management (TEEM) is a control approach that enhances transient operability to improve overall propulsion and vehicle efficiency by injecting or extracting power from engine shafts. Traditionally implemented with proportional-integral (PI) control, this study expands the application of TEEM by presenting model predictive control (MPC) schemes to execute the TEEM concept. Via cost function design and constraint selection, the transient operability goals for TEEM are considered in the controller designs. The proposed MPCs are simulated on a nonlinear turbofan engine model at two environmental conditions, with comparisons drawn to a baseline PI. Performance is evaluated using compressor maps and two TEEM-specific metrics: transient stack usage and transient excursion integral. Simulation results reveal the developed schemes perform comparably to the benchmark controller and can be implemented in two distinct configurations. Potential modifications for future investigations include cost function measures that optimize energy use, additional performance effectiveness measures, and battery storage capabilities.

Deployment of neural-network-based neutron microscopic cross sections in the Griffin reactor physics application

The capability to utilize neural networks to predict macroscopic and microscopic cross section parametric spaces has been developed for the Griffin reactor physics application. The LibTorch interface enables Griffin's MOOSE-based materials to interact with LibTorch-trained models, allowing for the evaluation of complex macroscopic or microscopic cross section spaces, which are then used to evaluate the neutronic properties of the Griffin finite element model. This study benchmarks traditional ISOXML-formatted tabulation libraries against neural network-based models for 279 nuclides on 20,160 grid points for zero-dimensional and two-dimensional reactor models. Benchmark metrics include the fundamental mode eigenvalue, fission and absorption rates, and various temperature coefficients of reactivity (isothermal, fuel, and moderator). From the perspective of storage space, the complete set of LibTorch models uses 11 MB on disk, compared to the 10 GB for the ISOXML multigroup library that covers the same grid space. For the two-dimensional performance case considered in Griffin, the Torch model uses 97% less RAM than the reference ISOXML dataset while runtime increases by a factor of 3 when using the LibTorch model compared to the ISOXML dataset with multi-linear interpolation. The LibTorch model consistently yields errors within 0.01% for most analyzed quantities except for the temperature coefficients of reactivity where the maximum discrepancies are up to 0.3 $\frac{pcm}{K}$. Due to the neural network attempting to best predict quantities with no regard for a positive or negative bias for any given quantity, predictions may experience random fluctuations, resulting in both positive and negative errors. Future work will entail both depletion and coupled transient analysis to determine the predictive capabilities of Griffin with neural network-based cross sections.

Establishing the Stability of Cross-Linked Poly(ethylene oxide) Blended with Poly(pentyl malonate) against Lithium Metal Anodes

This work focuses on an electrolyte obtained by infusing linear poly(pentyl malonate) (PPM) chains into cross-linked poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO). A lithium salt is added to enable ion transport. Obtaining this electrolyte is only possible because PPM is miscible with PEO irrespective of salt concentration. The properties of this electrolyte are compared against two benchmarks: an electrolyte obtained by infusing linear PEO into cross-linked PEO and cross-linked PEO with no added linear polymer. Measurements of storage moduli and ion transport efficacies are found to be similar across the three electrolytes, suggesting similar stability behavior against lithium metal anodes, based on current theoretical models. Instead, the PPM infused electrolyte outperforms the other two electrolytes. In the cycling tests, the current supported by the PPM infused electrolyte was a factor of 20 higher than that of the PEO infused electrolyte and a factor of 4 higher than that of the cross-linked PEO electrolyte. In the unidirectional plating experiments, the other two electrolytes fail after about 4 h or less, while the PPM containing electrolyte did not fail during the 140 h testing period. Insight into the nature of failure modes was obtained using synchrotron hard X-ray microtomography.

Assessment of RELAP5-3D Code with Molten Salt Heat Transfer Experiments

The accurate thermal-hydraulic assessment of thermal storage systems is crucial for addressing the integrity and performance of the storage system design. This is particularly important for thermal storage systems using molten salts as a heat transport and storage medium, as the chemical corrosion and erosion by the high-temperature molten salts can cause serious damage to the structural components of the storage system. To understand these effects for TerraPower’s Natrium® Demonstration Reactor design, the system thermal-hydraulic analysis code, RELAP5-3D, is utilized to analyze the thermal storage system. This study evaluates two heat transfer correlations implemented in the RELAP5-3D code—the Dittus-Boelter and Gnielinski correlations—using selected benchmark cases from two molten salt heat transfer experiments conducted at Xi’an Jiao Tong University and the German Aerospace Center. The Nusselt numbers calculated using the Gnielinski correlation agree with the experimental data within ±5% of the relative deviations at 300°C and 400°C. With the increasing Reynolds numbers, the Dittus-Boelter correlation underestimates the Nusselt numbers by up to 22% compared to the Gnielinski correlation. Comparison of the RELAP5-3D calculation results with experimental data at a high temperature of 550°C revealed that the thermo-chemical characteristics of solar salt at high temperatures surpassing the decomposition temperatures of nitrate salts reduce the accuracy of heat transfer model of the RELAP5-3D code. Specifically, it has been observed that the temperatures of the wall surface and liquid near the wall can surpass the decomposition temperatures, even though the bulk temperature of molten salts remains significantly lower than these decomposition temperatures. In summary, this study recommends the use of the Gnielinski correlation for the heat transfer analysis of molten salt, rather than the Dittus-Boelter correlation.

Benchmarking Computational Tools for Calling SNPs and Indels in Complex Microbial Populations

The NASA BioNutrients missions seek to understand the suitability of microorganisms for bioproduction during space flight. One topic of interest is the stability of microbial genomes during long-term ambient storage and subsequent rehydration and growth. To address these questions, samples from 8 species were flown to ISS for 5 years of desiccated storage at ambient temperature (Stasis Packs) and 2 species were packaged along with powdered media inside a bioreactor system to allow hydration and growth in microgravity (Production Packs). For both systems, Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS) of the DNA extracted from the returned samples and paired ground controls will be conducted to identify changes in genome stability due to time, storage conditions and growth in space. Across the technical replicates, ground controls, 10 timepoints, and multiple experimental conditions, ~300 samples have been selected for initial analysis with WGS sequencing to 100x coverage. A flexible and resource efficient mutation calling pipeline is needed to process this large dataset and allow for comparisons between species. Many bioinformatics tools for calling Indels and Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs) are designed for use with pure isolates, where true variations from the reference genome are expected to dominate the reads aligning to the location of mutation. In contrast, DNA from the Stasis Pack (SP) samples was collected directly after recovery from desiccated storage and the Production Pack (PP) samples were collected after fermentation. In this context, reads with mutations are expected to be less frequent than reads that align with the reference genome, as each sample will include multiple lines of cells. Thus, BioNutrients samples are expected to be similar to samples from cancer cell or “pooled” sequencing approaches. In preparation for the analysis of the BioNutrients samples, we have tested three mutation calling tools (GATK for Microbes, BreSeq and DiscoSNP) designed for complex samples. A challenge of validating mutation identification pipelines is a lack of “Ground Truth” datasets, especially for complex samples. To compare these three tools, we sought to identify mutations in pre-existing WGS data collected from populations of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii that were exposed to UV mutagenesis and growth in LEO as part of the Space Algae-1 mission. Here we present a summary of these tools against the analysis originally conducted using the CRISP tool. Critical metrics are compared such as runtime, the number of SNPs, the number and size of Indels, and patterns of transversion and transitions identified by each tool are reported. By sharing these benchmarking results collected in support of the BioNutrients mission, we aim to guide others seeking to identify SNVs in similarly complex microbial samples.

Accelerating Application Bulk Synchronous Writes in HPC Environments

High-bandwidth storage tiers are becoming more common for their capability to absorb high-rate, bursty I/Os. Notably, the designs of these fast storage tiers differ from system to system. The variation of these layers and non-uniform methods of access can pose chal- lenges for applications seeking to run at multiple HPC facilities. Therefore, in this work, we present Spectral, a rapid-output ab- straction library to accelerate application, bulk-synchronous writes on HPC systems. We design Spectral to enable applications to use high-bandwidth storage, such as node-local storage and dis- tributed, write-caches (e.g., burst buffers) transparently without requiring modifications to the application or file system source code. The key idea is to allow applications to spend most of the time performing productive work and to not require any source code changes for maximum portability on different HPC archi- tectures. Spectral internally re-routes write-only files through available, high-performance I/O resources before ultimately mi- grating them to the shared global parallel file system. For instance, on Summit, Spectral transparently places application outputs on node-local storage and then utilizes asynchronous migration to the center-wide GPFS file system. We evaluate Spectral on the Summit HPC system (1024 nodes) using the IOR benchmark and real scientific applications. Spectral shows linear performance scaling, improving application write performance by over an order of magnitude when compared to GPFS.

Verifying MCNP Models of the TEX High 240 Plutonium Benchmark

Computational modeling programs are invaluable tools that allow us to understand systems, safely develop new processes, and make reliable predictions about future designs. However, the effectiveness of these codes is limited by the degree to which their parameters match the real world. In the field of nuclear engineering, cross section data is one of these vital parameters. Accurate cross section data on important fissile and fissionable isotopes promotes the design of safer and more efficient fabrication, transportation, storage, and stockpiling of nuclear fuel. Unfortunately, there are knowledge gaps in data on key isotopes. In 2011, a multinational meeting hosted by the US Department of Energy Nuclear Criticality Safety Program ranked the priority of certain cross section data needs. In response, Lawrence Livermore National Lab (LLNL) designed the Thermal and Epithermal eXperiment (TEX) series of benchmark experiments. Benchmark experiments are used to validate current cross section data. They validate data by comparing the results of an actual experiment to the predicted results from a computational model. The data a benchmark applies to depends on the isotope and energy range the experiment’s neutron multiplication factor ( k eff ) is most sensitive to. The development and testing of the TEX High 240 Plutonium Benchmark will help validate 240 Pu cross section data. The configuration and materials of this benchmark are designed to be most sensitive to 240 Pu's intermediate energy range (from 0.625 ev to 100 keV ). MCNP® models of the assembly have been developed by LLNL and the results have been written in the final design report. In order for the discrepancies between benchmark models and experiments to be attributed to cross section inaccuracies, the accuracy of the models needs to be verified. The goal of this project is to verify of the results of LLNL's modeling by creating a new set of MCNP models and comparing the results.

Evolution of the ROOT Tree I/O

The ROOT TTree data format encodes hundreds of petabytes of High Energy and Nuclear Physics events. Its columnar layout drives rapid analyses, as only those parts (“branches”) that are really used in a given analysis need to be read from storage. Its unique feature is the seamless C++ integration, which allows users to directly store their event classes without explicitly defining data schemas. In this contribution, we present the status and plans of the future ROOT 7 event I/O. Along with the ROOT 7 interface modernization, we aim for robust, where possible compile-time safe C++ interfaces to read and write event data. On the performance side, we show first benchmarks using ROOT’s new experimental I/O subsystem that combines the best of TTrees with recent advances in columnar data formats. A core ingredient is a strong separation of the high-level logical data layout (C++ classes) from the low-level physical data layout (storage backed nested vectors of simple types). We show how the new, optimized physical data layout speeds up serialization and deserialization and facilitates parallel, vectorized and bulk operations. This lets ROOT I/O run optimally on the upcoming ultra-fast NVRAM storage devices, as well as file-less storage systems such as object stores.

Role of Polymer Architecture in CO 2 Capture from Air Using Supported Poly(alkylenimine)s: Linear vs Branched Polymers

Direct air capture (DAC) of CO 2 coupled with geologic storage is a promising climate change mitigation strategy, with some applications employing amines supported on porous solids as CO 2 sorbents. While branched poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) is the standard benchmark amine material, it suffers from limited oxidative stability. Poly(propylenimine) (PPI), as an alternative, has previously demonstrated improved resistance to degradation under harsh oxidative conditions. Linear and branched PEI are commercially available, though at different molecular weights, while PPI is not commercially available. For this reason, a comparative study of all four polymers (linear PEI, branched PEI, linear PPI, branched PPI) has not been reported for DAC. In this study, we synthesize and compare low-molecular-weight (∼800 g/mol) linear (L) and branched (B) PEI and PPI supported on a model support, SBA-15 silica. These materials are evaluated for CO 2 adsorption under dry, DAC-relevant conditions (400 ppm of CO 2 , 30 °C). LPPI exhibited the highest amine efficiency at all loadings, reaching a maximum of 0.14 mmol CO 2 /mmol N, outperforming BPEI, while LPEI consistently showed the lowest uptake capacity. Temperature-programmed desorption reveals that the structure of the amine polymer impacts the CO 2 binding strength, with branched polymers displaying higher desorption energies of 102−111 kJ/mol. In situ infrared spectroscopy experiments show that all sorbents preferentially capture CO 2 as ammonium carbamate. Isobaric CO 2 uptake studies further underscore the influence of polymer mobility and support pore crowding on performance, while demonstrating the sorbents’ performance at elevated temperatures and CO 2 concentrations. All materials demonstrated good stability over 25 adsorption−desorption cycles using thermal regeneration in an inert gas purge, with only BPPI displaying a 10−11% decrease in capacity/amine efficiency during cycling, possibly due to the loss of low molecular weight, oligomeric amines. This is the first side-by-side comparison of the CO 2 sorption properties of linear and branched PEI and PPI with similar molecular weights. These findings highlight the significant role of polymer architecture in CO 2 capture efficiency and inform future designs of durable, high-performance DAC sorbents.

Solar Photovoltaic and Storage Supply Chains and Technology and Market Opportunities

This talk will highlight the most recent efforts from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to track solar photovoltaic (PV) and storage supply and demand in the United States and globally, as well as bottom-up calculations of manufacturing costs for facilities across the globe. We will begin with an overview of the global solar PV supply chain and 2022 benchmark input data used for NREL's bottom-up crystalline silicon (c-Si) and thin film PV module manufacturing cost models. For the polysilicon, wafer, cell conversion, and module assembly steps of the c-Si supply chain, and for thin film modules, we will review the industry-collected input data and methods used for calculating the costs of goods sold (COGS); research and development (R&D) expenses; and sales, general, and business administration (S, G, and A) expenses. This 2022 benchmark analysis is compiled for state-of-the-art c-Si and thin film PV module manufacturing in several countries and regions; and will also include a quantified summary of the impacts of the manufacturing incentives and tax credits that are available for solar manufacturing and installations within the United States. Next generation technologies that lower PV manufacturing and installation costs, reduce operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses, and improve system energy yield will also be highlighted. We will conclude with projections of solar market penetration to 2050 from NREL's Solar Futures Study and Annual Technology Baseline (ATB) model, which includes solar coupled with lower-cost storage scenarios as well as the range of future cost scenarios for other power generation sources. We look forward to sharing NREL's extensive work in these areas and discussing ideas for future directions.

FPDeep: Scalable Acceleration of CNN Training on Deeply-Pipelined FPGA Clusters

In this paper, we propose a framework called FPDeep, which uses a hybrid of model and layer paral- lelism to configure distributed reconfigurable clusters to train DNNs. This approach has numerous benefits. First, the design does not suffer from batch size growth. Second, novel workload and weight partitioning leads to balanced loads of both among nodes. And third, the entire system is fine-grained pipeline. This leads to high parallelism and utilization and also minimizes the time features need to be cached while waiting for back-propagation.

Bioreactor perfusion system for the long-term maintenance of tissue-engineered skeletal muscle organoids

Three-dimensional skeletal muscle organ-like structures (organoids) formed in tissue culture by fusion of proliferating myoblasts into parallel networks of long, unbranched myofibers provide an in vivo-like model for examining the effects of growth factors, tension, and space flight on muscle cell growth and metabolism. To determine the feasibility of maintaining either avian or mammalian muscle organoids in a commercial perfusion bioreactor system, we measured metabolism, protein turnover. and autocrine/paracrine growth factor release rates. Medium glucose was metabolized at a constant rate in both low-serum- and serum-free media for up to 30 d. Total organoid noncollagenous protein and DNA content decreased approximately 22-28% (P < 0.05) over a 13-d period. Total protein synthesis rates could be determined accurately in the bioreactors for up to 30 h and total protein degradation rates could be measured for up to 3 wk. Special fixation and storage conditions necessary for space flight studies were validated as part of the studies. For example, the anabolic autocrine/paracrine skeletal muscle growth factors prostaglandin F2alpha (PGF2alpha) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) could be measured accurately in collected media fractions, even after storage at 37 degrees C for up to 10 d. In contrast, creatine kinase activity (a marker of cell damage) in collected media fractions was unreliable. These results provide initial benchmarks for long-term ex vivo studies of tissue-engineered skeletal muscle.

A New Era of H-O-C-S Magma Solubility Modeling: Better, Faster, Stronger

H 2 O, CO 2 , and S are the most abundant volatiles in magmatic systems and are critical to understanding magma storage, phase equilibria, and volcanic eruptions. Models that consider all three of these components, however, may not allow for critical examination and adjustment of assumptions underlying the model, or provide benchmark testing or extensible interfaces. Thus, understanding why models produce different results can be challenging. We have gathered authors of established (D-Compress) and recent (VolFe, EVo, Sulfur_X, MAGEC) H-O-C-S volatile solubility models to work together to understand how and why our models diverge. We present a series of benchmark basalt degassing scenarios revealing that often understated model assumptions such as fO 2 buffer equations, fO 2 -Fe 3+ /ΣFe relationships, and even major element normalization routines have outsized effects on model results. All models consider S 2- and S 6+ melt species but with different approaches to sulfate/sulfide capacities, partition coefficients, and species fugacities, leading to divergence in the evolution of modeled gas compositions, melt S and Fe speciation, and fO 2 , with the extent of divergence depending on melt composition. Such scenarios enable meaningful intercomparison of existing models and lay the groundwork for a user-friendly yet powerful solubility modeling framework. Given our wealth of existing solubility literature, we suggest that the field of magmatic volatiles should focus now on the creation of modern tools and the modular implementation of existing model equations or methods, and that the evaluation of code usability, transparency, and benchmarking should be codified pillars of the peer-review process. As an example of such an endeavor, we present early work coupling these sulfur solubility models with VESIcal, an extensible and rigorously tested python library containing seven existing H 2 O-CO 2 solubility models. VESIcal includes the ability to extract, edit, and even interchange assumptions underlying any model. For example, users may combine or swap separately published H 2 O, CO 2 , and S models, as well as underlying model choices, such as Equations of State and redox models.

A Strategy for Constructing Pore-Space-Partitioned MOFs with High Uptake Capacity for C 2 Hydrocarbons and CO 2

Introduction of pore partition agents into hexagonal channels of MIL-88 type (acs topology) endows materials with high tunability in gas sorption. Here, we report a strategy to partition acs framework into pacs (partitioned acs) crystalline porous materials (CPM). This strategy is based on insertion of in situ synthesized 4, 4'-dipyridylsulfide (dps) ligands. As a result, one third of open metal sites in the parent acs net are retained in pacs MOFs, while two thirds are used for pore space partition. The newly synthesized Co 2 V-pacs MOFs, with optimized pore space and open metal sites, exhibit near or at record high uptake capacities for C 2 H 2 , C 2 H 4 , C 2 H 6 , and CO 2 among MOFs. For example, the storage capacity of C 2 H 2 is 234 cm 3 /g -1 (298 K) and 330 cm 3 /g -1 (273K) at 1 atm for CPM-733-dps (the Co 2 V-BDC form, BDC=1,4-benzenedicarboxylate), higher than benchmark MOFs such as MOF-74 and all other pacs members. These high uptake capacities are accomplished with low heat of adsorption, a feature desirable for low-energy-cost adsorbent regeneration. CPM-733-dps is stable and shows no loss of C 2 H 2 adsorption capacity following multiple adsorption–desorption cycles.
