Review and Modeling of Integrated Energy Systems with Nuclear Reactor Coupled Desalination and District Heating

Detailed reviews of a past advanced nuclear reactor based integrated energy system, as well as other nuclear reactor and fossil fuel based integrated energy systems have been performed for this work. Review of the utilization of heat from nuclear reactors for various applications and cogeneration has been done. The heat can be utilized by extraction of the steam from the turbine while the steam is still at a desired temperature. While use of nuclear process heat for district heating in countries like Finland, France, China, Poland, and elsewhere is discussed, more focus of the review has been given on nuclear desalination processes. Integrated energy systems (IES) where distinct types of reactors like PWR, BWR, sodium cooled fast reactor, heavy water reactor and other advanced reactors are coupled with various nuclear desalination processes like multi-effect distillation (MED), multi-stage flashing (MSF) and reverse osmosis (RO) methods have been discussed. The nuclear desalination plant at Aktau has been discussed in more detail due to its decades of successful operation. The IES of the Aktau plant coupled with 5-effect MED desalination plant has been taken as a reference for modeling the Open Modelica (OM) based IES of this work. Here, the OM IES model shows good agreement with the MED plant output of Aktau and can be extended for future applications of IES.

Dissociative electron attachment to 5-bromo-uracil: non-adiabatic dynamics on complex-valued potential energy surfaces

Electron induced dissociation reactions are relevant to many fields, ranging from prebiotic chemistry to cancer treatments. However, the simulation of dissociation electron attachment (DEA) dynamics is very challenging because the auto-ionization widths of the transient negative ions must be accounted for. We propose an adaptation of the ab initio multiple spawning (AIMS) method for complex-valued potential energy surfaces, along the lines of recent developments based on surface hopping dynamics. Our approach combines models for the energy dependence of the auto-ionization widths, obtained from scattering calculations, with survival probabilities computed for the trajectory basis functions employed in the AIMS dynamics. The method is applied to simulate the DEA dynamics of 5-bromouracil in full dimensionality, i.e., taking all the vibrational modes into consideration. The propagation starts on the $π_{2}^{*}$ resonance state and describes the formation of Br - anions mediated by non-adiabatic couplings. The potential energies, gradients and non-adiabatic couplings were computed with the fractional-occupancy molecular orbital complete-active-space configuration-interaction method, and the calculated DEA cross section are consistent with the observed DEA intensities.

Optical reflectance imaging reveals interlayer coupling in mechanically stacked MoS 2 and WS 2 bilayers

Optical reflectance imaging is a popular technique for characterizing 2D materials, thanks to its simplicity and speed of data acquisition. The use of this method for studying interlayer phenomena in stacked 2D layers has, however, remained limited. Here we demonstrate that optical imaging can reveal the nature of interlayer coupling in stacked MoS 2 and WS 2 bilayers through their observed reflectance contrast versus the substrate. Successful determination of interlayer coupling requires co-optimization of the illumination wavelength and the thickness of an underlying SiO 2 film. Our observations are supported by multilayer optical calculations together with an analysis of the effect of any interlayer gap. This approach promises quick characterization of constructed 2D material systems.

Assessment of Survey Results from Advanced Reactor Industry Domain Experts on Nonlinear Soil-Structure Interaction Analysis Software Verification and Validation

The seismic load case has a significant impact on the design and cost of nuclear power plants. Given the need to substantially reduce cost, advanced reactor designers are looking to leverage numerical tools that enable seismic analysis of an integrated vessel/support/structure/soil system. Modern nonlinear analysis tools provide a solution, capturing dynamic coupling between components (including soil-structure interaction (SSI)) concurrent with nonlinear behavior in one or more parts of the system. Although these methods have a rich history of technical development and implementation, software quality assurance (SQA) following nuclear industry standards remains a significant burden for those wishing to adopt such methods for advanced reactor design and licensing. To reduce the SQA burden, this project will develop the guidance for SQA verification and validation (V&V) of coupled nonlinear SSI analysis tools, to include a test matrix of software features and test problems to support commercial grade dedication (CGD). The guidance is intended to be technology-neutral: supporting designers of all advanced reactors. To maximize the value of the project to reactor designers, the project team performed focused surveys of and interviews with advanced reactor designers. Additionally, the project surveyed members of the broader industry involved in reactor design and licensing. The aggregated industry feedback consists of written survey responses, live polling responses, focused interviews, and informal feedback provided after outreach presentations, collectively referred to as “survey results”. Herein, the survey results are reported, reviewed, and assessed to inform follow-on project activities. The survey results confirmed the familiarity of the industry with the coupled nonlinear SSI analysis. They also affirm the project need based upon the expressed intent to (1) incorporate nonlinear features and (2) pursue the coupled nonlinear SSI analysis to reduce seismic demands and construction costs. All reactor designers indicated their intent to incorporate two or more nonlinear features, and all reactor designer respondents opined that the coupled nonlinear SSI analysis would allow for the optimization of the reactor design and construction. However, the programmatic challenges, whether real or perceived, present a significant barrier to reactor designers. The barrier most commonly identified by the reactor designer population was regulatory risk, with 70% citing this as a reason not to pursue the approach. The perceived regulatory risk identified by the reactor designers underscores the importance of regulator engagement and dialogue in this project. Additionally, half of the reactor designers identified cost and lack of guidance as a deterrent. The survey results also provide insights to tailor specific aspects of the guidance document and test matrix. The project plans to prepare both a formal referenceable guidance document and a collaborative, web-based test matrix and problem set. The project will focus on more complete test problem definitions for the prioritized nonlinear features over shallower problem descriptions for a larger set of features. The nonlinearities prioritized as high based upon survey feedback include fluid-structure interaction and seismic isolation and energy dissipation devices. The nonlinearities prioritized as intermediate include nonlinear geomaterials, nonlinear concrete, nonlinear steel, and interface/contact nonlinearity. Deep embedment and the associated nonlinear phenomena are assigned the lowest priority based upon survey feedback.

Dynamic Response of a Semiactive Suspension System with Hysteretic Nonlinear Energy Sink Based on Random Excitation by means of Computer Simulation

This paper aims to investigate the property and behavior of the hysteretic nonlinear energy sink (HNES) coupled to a half vehicle system which is a nine-degree-of-freedom, nonlinear, and semiactive suspension system in order to improve the ride comfort and increase the stability in shock mitigation by using the computer simulation method. The HNES model is a semiactive suspension device, which comprises the famous Bouc–Wen (B-W) model employed to describe the force produced by both the purely hysteretic spring and linear elastic spring of potentially negative stiffness connected in parallel, for the half vehicle system. Nine nonlinear motion equations of the half vehicle system are derived in terms of the seven displacements and the two dimensionless hysteretic variables, which are integrated numerically by employing the direct time integration method for studying both the variables of vertical displacements, velocities, accelerations, chassis pitch angle, and the ride comfort and driver safety, respectively, based on the bump and random road inputs of the pseudoexcitation method as excitation signal. Simulation results show that, compared with the HNES model and the magnetorheological (MR) model coupled to the half vehicle system, the ride comfort and stability have been evidently improved. A successful validation process has been performed, which indicated that both the ride comfort and driver safety properties of the HNES model coupled to half vehicle significantly improved.

RESOLVING THE ELECTROCHEMICAL EQUATIONS OF A SOLID OXIDE FUEL CELL FOR USE IN TRANSIENT SIMULATION AND INTEGRATION INTO CYBER-PHYSICAL SYSTEMS

A major challenge with complex cyber-physical systems stems from long model computational time that creates a mismatch between the model system and the physical system. The numerical modeling of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) presents particular challenges due to the highly coupled nature of the underlying equations and the multiphysics needed to fully resolve their behavior during a transient event. To this end current approaches revolve around splitting the computational efforts into resolving temperature effects and resolving electrochemical effects. Current methods employed for the transient simulation of an SOFC for implementation in the Hybrid Performance (HyPer) facility cyberphysical plant at the National Energy Technology Laboratory reveal a distinct need for accelerated results with a high degree of stability. To this aim, an investigation into the computational time for the code reveals that the underlying electrochemical algorithm takes an order of magnitude more time than its thermal counterpart and has a tendency to vary in terms of iteration time and as such a rework of the underlying system is proposed. The primary method for accelerated electrochemical algorithm solutions is to employ higher order root finding recipes for the resolution of the highly coupled electrochemical equations. This is done with the intention to reduce the overall number of subiterations necessary for resolving voltage, current density, and species concentration, properties of the fuel cell that are all directly coupled and require nested iterative approaches. The overall objective of this approach is an order of magnitude reduction in calculation time without sacrificing stability and increasing accuracy. Specific approaches involve using both bounded and unbounded techniques, such as the False Position method and the Secant method (or if applicable Newton-Raphson) respectively, the drawbacks being slower convergence for False Position and instability for the Secant or Newton-Raphson methods. Current preliminary results on simplified versions of the parent functions involved for electrochemical calculations indicate a reduction in computational steps by a factor of two for the secant method and a factor of three for Newton-Raphson. When implemented into new modified electrochemical algorithms, the results indicate a possible order of magnitude reduction in calculation time.

A Three-Dimensional, Thermodynamically and Variationally Consistent, Fully Coupled, Electro-Chemo-Thermo-Mechanical Model of Solid-State Batteries

Here we present a theoretical framework for high fidelity modeling of three-dimensional electro-chemo-thermo-mechanical coupled systems such as solid-state batteries. The framework provides a useful means of utilizing molecular level information to predict the overall performance of the system at the continuum level. The central statement of the theoretical framework is a thermodynamically consistent inf-sup problem. The total potential of the coupled system consists of the Helmholtz free energy, the electrical kinetic potential, the chemical potential, the Fourier potential, the chemical reaction potential, and the external power expenditure. All governing equations derive from variational principles. We also show that the resulting initial-boundary-value problem (IBVP) is consistent with existing, widely adopted equations for modeling batteries. Moreover, the IBVP can be naturally discretized using the (variational) finite element method to simulate practical solid-state batteries with arbitrary geometries. Several examples illustrate multiphysics coupling between pairs of the physical field equations, culminating in a comprehensive three-dimensional model of charge-discharge in a solid state battery.

Enforcing detailed balance in the Borgnakke–Larsen redistribution method with temperature dependent relaxation models

For decades, it has been observed that the commonly used Borgnakke–Larsen method for energy redistribution in Direct Simulation Monte Carlo codes fails to satisfy the principle of detailed balance when coupled to a wide variety of temperature dependent relaxation models, while seemingly satisfying detailed balance when coupled to others. Many attempts have been made to remedy the issue, yet much ambiguity remains, and no consensus appears in the literature regarding the root cause of the intermittent compatibility of the Borgnakke–Larsen method with temperature dependent relaxation models. This paper alleviates that ambiguity by presenting a rigorous theoretical derivation of the Borgnakke–Larsen method's requirement for satisfying detailed balance. Specifically, it is shown that the Borgnakke–Larsen method maintains detailed balance if and only if the probability of internal-energy exchange during a collision depends only on collision invariants (e.g., total energy). Here, the consequences of this result are explored in the context of several published definitions of relaxation temperature, including translational, total, and cell-averaged temperatures. Of particular note, it is shown that cell-averaged temperatures, which have been widely discussed in the literature as a way to ensure equilibrium is reached, also fail in a similar, although less dramatic, fashion when the aforementioned relationship is not enforced. The developed theory can be used when implementing existing or new relaxation models and will ensure that detailed balance is satisfied.

Earth System Model Improvement Pipeline via Uncertainty Attribution and Active Learning

Primary focal area: 2 (Predictive Modeling via AI): We develop methods to formally quantify uncertainties in Earth System models for the land-atmosphere coupled system. Science Challenge: Earth system models still have significant biases in historical predictions of the intensity and frequency of water cycling extremes (e.g., droughts and flood events), leading to low confidence in future projections. Uncertainties arise from incomplete understanding of land and atmospheric processes, and insufficient observational constraints on model parameters. Many observations, including those from key DOE investments such as ARM and AmeriFlux, are used to evaluate model performance but have not been used to formally quantify model uncertainty because of the expense of running ESM simulations. An efficient pipeline engaging cutting-edge machine learning (ML) and uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods is needed to improve the predictive understanding of water cycle extremes in the Earth system.

Application of physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) solution to coupled thermal and hydraulic processes in silty sands

Abstract The accurate modeling of water and heat transport in soils is crucial for both geo-environmental and geothermal engineering. Traditional modeling methods are problematic because they require well-defined boundaries and initial conditions. Recently, physics-informed neural networks (PINNs), which incorporate partial differential equations (PDEs) to solve forward and inverse problems, have attracted increasing attention in machine learning research. In this study, we applied PINNs to tackle hydraulic and thermal transport coupling forward problems in silty sands. A fully connected deep neural network was utilized for training. This neural network model leverages automatic differentiation to apply the governing equations as constraints, based on the mathematical approximations established by the neural network itself. We conducted forward problems and compared the solutions derived from PINNs with those from Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations. The forward problem results demonstrate the PINNs model’s capability in predicting hydraulic transport, heat transport, and thermal–hydraulic coupling in silty sands under various boundary conditions. The PINNs exhibited great performance in simulating the thermal–hydraulic coupling problem. The accuracy of the PINNs solutions shows its potential for simulation in geotechnical engineering.

Trimeron-phonon coupling in magnetite

Using density functional theory, we study the lattice dynamical properties of magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) in the high-temperature cubic and low-temperature monoclinic phases. The calculated phonon dispersion curves and density of states are compared with the available experimental data obtained by inelastic neutron, inelastic x-ray, and nuclear inelastic scattering. We find a very good agreement between the theoretical and experimental results for the monoclinic Cc structure revealing the strong coupling between the charge-orbital (trimeron) order and specific phonon modes. For the cubic phase, clear discrepancies arise due to fluctuation effects, which are not included in the calculation method. Despite this shortcoming, we argue that the main spectral features can be understood assuming that the strong trimeron-phonon coupling is extended above the Verwey transition, with lattice dynamics influenced by the short-range order instead of the average cubic structure. Our results indicate the validity of trimerons (and trimeron-phonon coupling) to explain the physics of magnetite much beyond their original formulation.

Optical and magneto-optical properties of ferromagnetic monolayer CrBr 3 : A first-principles G W and G W plus Bethe-Salpeter equation study

The discovery of atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) magnetic semiconductors has triggered enormous research interest recently. In this paper, we use first-principles many-body perturbation theory to study a prototypical 2D ferromagnetic semiconductor, monolayer chromium tribromide (CrBr 3 ). With broken time-reversal symmetry, spin-orbit coupling, and excitonic effects included through the full-spinor GW and GW plus Bethe-Salpeter equation (GW-BSE) methods, we compute the frequency-dependent layer polarizability tensor and dielectric function tensor that govern the optical and magneto-optical (MO) properties. In addition, we provide a detailed theoretical formalism for simulating magnetic circular dichroism, MO Kerr effect, and Faraday effect, demonstrating the approach with monolayer CrBr 3 . Due to reduced dielectric screening in 2D and the localized nature of the Cr d orbitals, we find strong self-energy effects on the quasiparticle band structure of monolayer CrBr 3 that give a 3.8 eV indirect bandgap. Also, excitonic effects dominate the low-energy optical and MO responses in monolayer CrBr 3 where a large exciton binding energy of 2.3 eV is found for the lowest bright exciton state with excitation energy at 1.5 eV. We further find that the MO signals demonstrate strong dependence on the excitation frequency and substrate refractive index. Furthermore, our theoretical framework for modeling optical and MO effects could serve as a powerful theoretical tool for future study of optoelectronic and spintronics devices consisting of van der Waals 2D magnets.

Electronic effects in radiation-induced collision cascades in nickel

The accurate treatment of electronic effects in multi-million-atom simulations of radiation-induced collision cascades is crucial for reliable predictions of primary radiation damage. In this work, we explore the fidelity of a recently developed two-temperature molecular dynamics model implementing an electron density-dependent coupling of electronic and atomic subsystems for cascade simulations in nickel. We show that the parameter-free model realistically captures the instantaneous energy losses during all stages of the highly nonequilibrium cascade process. Our simulations predict two distinct coupling regimes, corresponding to the rapid energy losses through electronic stopping in the early stages of the cascade and to the slow equilibration through the electron-phonon coupling mechanism in the later stages, without the use of separate models or coupling terms. The intermediate stage of the cascade dynamics displays a complex energy transfer between the subsystems, which cannot be interpreted by comparison to either electronic stopping or electron-phonon coupling theories. We therefore compare the predicted atomic mixing, which is sensitive to the energy losses during the intermediate cascade stage, with experimental ion beam mixing measurements. We find good agreement with the experiments, validating the coupling model for the intermediate stage of the cascade. Predictions of final defect numbers and cluster sizes are found in line with the results from conventional electronic stopping-based methods, while significantly reducing the theoretical uncertainty in the outcomes of conventional models stemming from arbitrary choices of thresholds for different coupling terms. Our results represent a notable improvement in cascade damage predictions in nickel, providing validation of the electron density-dependent coupling model for radiation damage simulations in general. The results lead us to propose an interpretation of the electronic energy losses in the intermediate regime of velocities, where we find an effectively nonlinear dissipation.

Prescreening-Based Subset Selection for Improving Predictions of Earth System Models With Application to Regional Prediction of Red Tide

We present the ensemble method of prescreening-based subset selection to improve ensemble predictions of Earth system models (ESMs). In the prescreening step, the independent ensemble members are categorized based on their ability to reproduce physically-interpretable features of interest that are regional and problem-specific. The ensemble size is then updated by selecting the subsets that improve the performance of the ensemble prediction using decision relevant metrics. We apply the method to improve the prediction of red tide along the West Florida Shelf in the Gulf of Mexico, which affects coastal water quality and has substantial environmental and socioeconomic impacts on the State of Florida. Red tide is a common name for harmful algal blooms that occur worldwide, which result from large concentrations of aquatic microorganisms, such as dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, a toxic single celled protist. We present ensemble method for improving red tide prediction using the high resolution ESMs of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) and reanalysis data. The study results highlight the importance of prescreening-based subset selection with decision relevant metrics in identifying non-representative models, understanding their impact on ensemble prediction, and improving the ensemble prediction. These findings are pertinent to other regional environmental management applications and climate services. Additionally, our analysis follows the FAIR Guiding Principles for scientific data management and stewardship such that data and analysis tools are findable, accessible, interoperable, and reusable. As such, the interactive Colab notebooks developed for data analysis are annotated in the paper. This allows for efficient and transparent testing of the results’ sensitivity to different modeling assumptions. Moreover, this research serves as a starting point to build upon for red tide management, using the publicly available CMIP, Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX), and reanalysis data.

Novel Fault Location Method for Power Systems Based on Attention Mechanism and Double Structure GRU Neural Network

Fault location is one of the most essential techniques to maintain the stable operation of power systems. A fast and accurate fault location allows operators to restore power grids faster and avoid economic losses. Conventional methods rely on expert knowledge to extract the necessary features (e.g. DWT, DFT). For large systems, more coupling effects of transmission lines require more complex feature engineering, and incomplete features can easily introduce large errors. To overcome this, a deep learning approach without manual feature extraction is introduced to the fault location model under big data application. Towards this end, in the proposed method, the attention mechanism, the Bi-GRU and a dual structure network are applied to analyze the current data from different perspectives. Complete information for the fault features is extracted for the fault location. Based on a time series model and benefit from the ability to internally acquire the information architecture of faulty line, the established model is adaptive to the power grids with very complex topologies. Simulation results indicate that the proposed double-structure model reduces the maximum error and is less affected by noise. In comparison with different structures and different models, the proposed method shows better performance in IEEE 39-bus system.

Optimal Orbital Selection for Full Configuration Interaction (OptOrbFCI): Pursuing the Basis Set Limit under a Budget

Full configuration interaction (FCI) solvers are limited to small basis sets due to their expensive computational costs. An optimal orbital selection for FCI (OptOrbFCI) is proposed to boost the power of existing FCI solvers to pursue the basis set limit under a computational budget. The optimization problem coincides with that of the complete active space SCF method (CASSCF), while OptOrbFCI is algorithmically quite different. OptOrbFCI effectively finds an optimal rotation matrix via solving a constrained optimization problem directly to compress the orbitals of large basis sets to one with a manageable size, conducts FCI calculations only on rotated orbital sets, and produces a variational ground-state energy and its wave function. Coupled with coordinate descent full configuration interaction (CDFCI), we demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method on the carbon dimer and nitrogen dimer under basis sets up to cc-pV5Z. We also benchmark the binding curve of the nitrogen dimer under the cc-pVQZ basis set with 28 selected orbitals, which provide consistently lower ground-state energies than the FCI results under the cc-pVDZ basis set. Furthermore, the dissociation energy in this case is found to be of higher accuracy.

Spin–Orbit Natural Transition Orbitals and Spin-Forbidden Transitions

Natural transition orbitals (NTOs) are in widespread use for visualizing and analyzing electronic transitions. Here, the present work introduces the analysis of formally spin-forbidden transitions with the help of complex-valued spin-orbit (SO) NTOs. The analysis specifically focuses on the components in such transitions that cause their intensity to be non-zero because of SO coupling. Transition properties such as transition dipole moments are partitioned into SO-NTO hole-particle pairs, such that contributions to the intensity from specific occupied and unoccupied orbitals are obtained. The method has been implemented within the restricted active space (RAS) self-consistent field wave function theory framework, with SO coupling treated by RAS state interaction. SO-NTOs have a broad range of potential applications, which is illustrated by the T 2 -S 1 state mixing in pyrazine, spin-forbidden vs. spin-allowed 4f–5d transitions in the Tb 3+ ion, and the phosphorescence of tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium [Ir(ppy) 3 ].

Quantitative Analysis of Origin of Lithium Inventory Loss and Interface Evolution over Extended Fast Charge Aging in Li Ion Batteries

During the extreme fast charging (XFC) of lithium-ion batteries, lithium inventory loss (LLI) and reaction mechanisms at the anode/electrolyte interface are crucial factors in performance and safety. Determining the causes of LLI and quantifying them remain an essential challenge. We present mechanistic research on the evolution and interactions of aging mechanisms at the anode/electrolyte interface. We used NMC 532 /graphite pouch cells charged at rates of 1, 6, and 9 C up to 1000 cycles for our investigation. The cell components were characterized after cycling using electrochemical measurements, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy, 7 Li solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and high-performance liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry. The results indicate that cells charged at 1 C exhibit no Li plating, and the increase of SEI thickness is the dominant source of the Li loss. In contrast, Li loss in cells charged at 9 C is related to the formation of the metallic plating layers (42%) the SEI layer (38.1%) and irreversible intercalation into the bulk graphite (19%). XPS analysis suggests that the charging rate has little influence on the evolution of SEI composition. The interactions between competing aging mechanisms were evaluated by a correlation analysis. In conclusion, the quantitative method established in this work provides a comprehensive analytical framework for understanding the synergistic coupling of anodic degradation mechanisms, forecasting SEI failure scenarios, and assessing the XFC lithium-ion battery capacity fade.
