AB For assessing the safety of welded structural components, it is necessary to investigate the effects of multiple factors, which include the component geometry, load level, weld width, and weld strength mismatch, etc., on the crack tip constraint in weld joints, especially at high level of loading. Based on the J-A(2) two-parameter fracture theory, a welding constraint parameter, A(2w), is introduced such that the total constraint A(2) is the sum of A(2w) and a geometry constraint A(2g). The parameter A(2w) is developed to quantify the effects of material strength mismatch ratio and weld width, and is used to establish a dual constraint-parameters method (J-A(2g)-A(2w)) for characterizing the crack tip stress field in a welded joint. This method is validated by the finite element method (FEM), and the effects of material mismatch and weld width are analyzed. Using a critical crack opening stress as the fracture criterion, the fracture toughness of a welded joint can be predicted from the known fracture toughness value of another welded joint. The procedure and examples are given in this paper.

AB Risk-based inspection methods enable estimation of the probability of failure on demand for spring-operated pressure relief valves at the United States Department of Energy's Savannah River Site in Aiken, South Carolina. This paper presents a statistical performance evaluation of soft seat spring operated pressure relief valves. These pressure relief valves are typically smaller and of lower cost than hard seat (metal to metal) pressure relief valves and can provide substantial cost savings in fluid service applications (air, gas, liquid, and steam) providing that probability of failure on demand (the probability that the pressure relief valve fails to perform its intended safety function during a potentially dangerous over pressurization) is at least as good as that for hard seat valves. The research in this paper shows that the proportion of soft seat spring operated pressure relief valves failing is the same or less than that of hard seat valves, and that for failed valves, soft seat valves typically have failure ratios of proof test pressure to set pressure less than that of hard seat valves.

ID FORCE MICROSCOPY; EMBRITTLEMENT
AB Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and magnetic force microscopy (MFM) are used to characterize the morphology and strain-induced alpha' martensite distribution on the twin fracture surfaces of hydrogen-precharged type 304 austenitic stainless steel tensile tested at 200-218 K. The STM images of the twin fracture surfaces show that the topographies of two conjugate fracture surfaces match well with each other at the micron scale but not at the nanoscale. Three sets of shallow grooves, intersecting each other at an angle of 120, are formed on the twin fracture surfaces and the parallel nanoplate-like features are formed between the shallow grooves, resulting from the intersection of hydrogen-enhanced deformation bands with the twin boundary. The a' martensite distribution observed by MFM from two conjugate fracture surfaces and longitudinal section of microcracks indicate that the fracture occurs along the phase boundary between the austenite and strain-induced a' martensite near the twin boundary. The hydrogen-assisted twin boundary fracture processes are discussed in the theoretical framework of hydrogen-enhanced localized plasticity (HELP).

AB Flaw indications have been found in some dissimilar metal (DM) nozzle to stainless steel piping welds and reactor pressure vessel heads (RPVH) in pressurized water reactors (PWR) throughout the world. The nozzle welds usually involve welding ferritic (often A508) nozzles to 304/316 stainless steel pipe) using Alloy 182/82 weld metal. The welds may become susceptible to a form of corrosion cracking referred to as primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC). It can occur if the temperature is high enough (usually greater than 300 degrees C) and the water chemistry in the PWR is typical of operating plants. The weld residual stresses (WRS) induced by the welds are a main driver of PWSCC.
The purpose of this paper is to determine the weld residual stresses in a double-vee groove welded nozzle and then to model the natural crack growth in the weld. The double vee groove geometry has not been modeled much to date especially in such a large nozzle. This leads to a rather unique weld residual stress pattern which changes as the throat of the double vee is approached. Axial crack growth is modeled using a natural crack growth procedure. This was challenging since the crack shape necked down in the region where the tips of the vee grooves meet making the mesh development during this process challenging. This analysis provides information regarding crack growth evolution versus time. In addition, some comments regarding idealized growth are presented.

AB A theoretical, multi-scale model has been developed to predict the fracture toughness of terrific steels in the ductile-to-brittle fracture mode transition temperature region. The new model is being implemented into the DISlocation-based FRACture (DISFRAC) computer code at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and will permit fracture safety assessments of ferritic structures with only tensile properties and microstructural information (grain and carbide size) required as input. The theoretical basis of this model provides a means of predicting fracture behavior outside of the ranges of data currently used in deriving empirically-based models and should provide a means of improving the understanding of fracture behavior in the fracture mode transition region. Dislocation distribution equations, derived from dislocation theory developed by Yokobori et al., are combined with modified boundary layer solutions to account for the stress state local to various microstructural features believed to control fracture behavior. Terms are included to account for microcrack initiation in brittle grain boundary particles, propagation of the microcrack into the first ferrite grain and then through subsequent grain boundaries accounting for local tilt and twist grain misorientation across boundaries. This paper summarizes the DISFRAC model and provides the results of a study performed to investigate the role of grain size in microcrack initiation, propagation and the resulting prediction of fracture toughness.

AB A large heat of low-alloy steel that met both specifications for SA508 Grade 3 Classl forging steel and SA533 Type B Class 1 plate steel (A508/A533) was procured and used to fabricate a submerged-arc weldment for potential application in high temperature gas-cooled reactors. Compact specimens, 1TC(T), were machined from the weld metal and from the heat-affected-zone (HAZ) of the weldment. Tests of both materials were performed to obtain the fracture toughness reference temperature, To, using the Master Curve procedure of ASTM E-1921, and J-R curves to evaluate material behavior at various threshold temperatures in Code Case N-499-2 (2001) of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code. Tests were performed at various temperatures up to 593 degrees C. Unloading compliance was the primary technique used, although dc-potential drop was also monitored during the tests, and the normalization procedure of E1820 was used to compare the results from each procedure. Moreover, many tests at the highest temperatures were performed with no unloading and the normalization procedure provided in El 820 was used to analyze the load-displacement measurements. The fracture toughness for the HAZ is superior to that of the weld metal both in terms of transition temperature and ductile fracture toughness.

AB Primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) constitutes a major safety challenge for dissimilar metal welds (DMW) in pressurized water reactors. The reliability of structure integrity assessment of DMW is strongly dependent on the reliable determination of the weld residual stress (WRS) field, which is one of the primary driving forces for PWSCC. Recent studies have shown that today's WRS models have varying degrees of success in determining the WRS in DMW that is highly dependent upon the strain-hardening models used in WRS simulation. The commonly used strain hardening model in WRS modeling (isotropic, kinematic, and mixed ones) appear to be inadequate in that they neglect the high-temperature time-dependent (viscous) deformation process. during welding.
This work presents a new strain-hardening model derived from specially designed experiment that mimics the thermal-mechanical deformation process of a SS304L stainless steel under rapid heating and cooling conditions relevant to DMW. Compared to the time-independent strain hardening ones, the new strain hardening model, termed as Dynamic Strain Hardening model, takes into account the effect of time and temperature dependent dislocation annihilation and microstructure recrystallization processes at the elevated temperatures during welding. Moreover, a novel experimental approach based on micro-hardness testing is developed to quantify the residual equivalent plastic strain in a mock-up DMW. It is found that the new dynamic strain hardening model produces results that are more consistent with experimentally measured plastic strains and residual stresses. It is concluded that it is necessary to include the dynamic strain hardening recovery phenomenon to improve the accuracy of WRS predictions in DMW. Moreover, the newly developed micro-hardness based plastic strain measurement approach would be an effective means to quantify the plastic strain distributions which is another key factor for PWSCC in DMW in addition to the residual stresses.

ID AUSTENITIC STAINLESS-STEELS; ENVIRONMENT EMBRITTLEMENT; LOW-TEMPERATURES
AB Austenitic stainless steels have been extensively tested in hydrogen environments. These studies have identified the relative effects of numerous materials and environmental variables on hydrogen-assisted fracture. While there is concern that welds are more sensitive to environmental effects than the non-welded base material, in general, there have been relatively few studies of the effects. of gaseous hydrogen on the fracture and fatigue resistance of welded microstructures. The majority of published studies have considered welds with geometries significantly different from the welds produced in assembling pressure manifolds. In this study, conventional, uniaxial tensile testing was used to characterize tubing of type 316L austenitic stainless steel with an outside diameter of 6.35 mm. Additionally, orbital tube welds were produced and tested to compare to the non-welded tubing. The effects of internal hydrogen were studied after saturating the tubes and orbital welds with hydrogen by exposure to high-pressure gaseous hydrogen at elevated temperature. The effects of hydrogen on the ductility of the tubing and the orbital tube welds were found to be similar to the effects observed in previous studies of type 316L austenitic stainless steels.

AB Small specimens are playing the key role in evaluating properties of irradiated materials. The use of small specimens provides several advantages. Typically, only small volume of material can be irradiated in a reactor at desirable conditions in terms of temperature, neutron flux, and neutron dose. Small volume of irradiated material may also allow for easier handling of specimens. Smaller specimens reduce the amount of radioactive material, minimizing- personnel exposures and waste disposal. However, use of small specimens imposes variety of challenges as well. These challenges are associated with proper accounting for size effects and transferability of small specimen data to the real structures of interest. The PCVN specimen as well as any fracture toughness specimen that can be made out of the broken halves of standard Charpy specimens may have exceptional utility for evaluation of RPVs. The Charpy V-notch specimen is the most commonly used specimen geometry in surveillance programs. Precracking and testing of Charpy surveillance specimens would allow one to determine and monitor directly actual fracture toughness instead of requiring indirect predictions using correlations established with impact data. However, there is a growing number of indications that there might be a bias in the reference fracture toughness transition temperature, To values derived from PCVN and compact specimens. The present paper summarizes data from the series of experiments that use subsize specimens for evaluation of the transition fracture toughness of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels. Two types of compact specimens and three types of three-point bend specimens from five RPV materials were used in these subsize experiments. The current results showed that To determined from PCVN specimens with width (W) to thickness (B) ratio W/B=1, on average, are lower than T-o determined from compact specimens with W/B=2. At the same time, three-point bend specimens with W/B=2 exhibited T-o values that were very similar to T-o values derived from compact specimens. Constraint corrections developed by Dodds et al. are applied to assess the bias.

AB The objective of this work is to enable the safe design of hydrogen pressure vessels by measuring the fatigue crack growth rates of ASME code-qualified steels in high-pressure hydrogen gas. While a design-life calculation framework has recently been established for high-pressure hydrogen vessels, a material property database does not exist to support the analysis. This study addresses such voids in the database by measuring the fatigue crack growth rates for three heats of ASME SA-372 Grade J steel in 100 MPa hydrogen gas at two different load ratios (R). Results show that fatigue crack growth rates are similar for all three steel heats and are only a mild function of R. Hydrogen accelerates the fatigue crack growth rates of the steels by at least an order of magnitude relative to crack growth rates in inert environments. Despite such dramatic effects of hydrogen on the fatigue crack growth rates, measurement of these properties enables reliable definition of the design life of steel hydrogen containment vessels.

ID VIBRATION
AB Measurements are presented from a two-beam structure with several bolted interfaces in order to characterize the nonlinear damping introduced by the joints. The measurements (at force levels below macro-slip) reveal that each underlying mode of the structure is well approximated by a single degree-of-freedom system with a nonlinear mechanical joint. At low enough force levels the measurements show dissipation that scales as the second power of the applied force, agreeing with theory for a linear viscously damped system. This is attabuted to linear viscous behavior of the material and/or damping provided by the support structure, which simulates free-free boundary conditions. At larger force levels the damping is observed to behave nonlinearly, suggesting that damping from the mechanical joints is dominant. A model is presented that captures these effects, consisting of a spring and viscous damping element in parallel with a 4-Parameter Iwan model. The parameters of this model are identified for each mode of the structure and comparisons suggest that the model captures the linear and nonlinear damping accurately over a range of forcing levels.

ID BUILT-UP STRUCTURES; EQUIVALENT LINEARIZATION; MODEL; SYSTEMS
AB Development of mathematical models for built-up structures, particularly those with many interfaces, is still primitive. This limitation is particularly evident when complex loads and load histories are considered, an example of which is random vibration.
Two steps in simplifying this problem are explored here. First, the system response is approximated as that of the super-position of numerous decoupled modes, the coordinates of which evolve according to a constitutive model designed to capture the nonlinearity of the structure. Second, because among the categories of load for which dynamic analysis on nonlinear structures is particularly difficult is that of random loads and the resulting random vibration, and given the previous approximation, it is natural to apply the method of stochastic equivalent linearization to the governing equation of each mode. Both of these approximations are explored for the case where the nonlinear behavior of the interfaces is represented by a Masing-Prandtl-Ishlinskii-Iwan model employing a Palmov kernel.

AB One major difficulty that exists in reconciling model predictions of a system with experimental measurements is assessing and accounting for the uncertainties in the system. There are several enumerated sources of uncertainty in model prediction of physical phenomena, the primary ones being: I) Model form error 2) Aleatoric uncertainty of model parameters, 3) Epistemic uncertainty of model parameters, and 4) Model solution error These forms of uncertainty can have insidious consequences for modeling if not properly identified and accounted for In particular confusion between aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty can lead to a fundamentally incorrect model being inappropriately fit to data such that the model seems to be correct. As a consequence, model predictions may be nonphysical or nonsensical outside of the regime for which the model was calibrated. This research looks at the effects of aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty in order to make recommendations for properly accounting for them in a modeling framework.

AB A problem of interest in the nuclear power industry involves the response of pressurized water reactor (PWR) pressure boundary components under long-term station blackout (SBO) conditions. SBO is a particularly challenging event to nuclear safety, since all alternating current power required for core cooling is lost. If unmitigated, such a scenario will eventually lead to the reactor core being uncovered. Thermal-hydraulic (T-H), computational fluid dynamics, and structural combined creep/plasticity analyses of this scenario have been conducted and are presented here.
In this severe accident scenario, high temperatures can occur, and impart this thermal energy to the surrounding structures, including the reactor vessel, nozzles, reactor coolant system (RCS) hot leg piping and S/G tubes. At such high temperatures and pressures, creep rupture of RCS piping and/or steam generator (S/G) tubes becomes possible. The intent of this paper is to present a finite element based analysis model that can be used to evaluate the time to failure of the nozzle-weld-pipe configuration.

AB Finite element analyses (PEA) have been used to study the effects of multi-axial loadings on bending limit load of local wall thinned pipes. It has been shown by investigators that torsion can be combined with bending moments using SRSS (Square Root of the Sum of the Squares) method for planar flaws with a limited axial extent. The treatment of torsion for non-planar flaws, which exceed the axial extent limit, will be a subject for future investigations. Since the reported FEA results are for various pipe sizes, flaw shapes with different mesh sizes, element types and computer codes, a set of benchmark problems was proposed and analyzed by participating investigators. The benchmark analysis results are presented in this paper.

AB Current methods used in the ASME Code, Subsection NH for the evaluation of creep-fatigue damage are based on the separation of elevated temperature cyclic damage into two parts, creep damage and fatigue damage. This presents difficulties in both evaluation of test data and determination of cyclic damage in design. To avoid these difficulties, an alternative approach was identified, called the Simplified Model Test or SMT approach based on the use of creep-fatigue hold time test data from test specimens with elastic follow-up conservatively designed to bound the response of general structural components of interest. A key feature of the methodology is the use of the results of elastic analysis directly in design evaluation similar to current methods in the ASME Code, Subsection NB. Although originally developed for current material included in Subsection NH, recent interest in the application of Alloy 617 for components operating at very high temperatures has caused renewed interest in the SMT approach because it provides an alternative to the proposed restriction on the use of current Subsection NH simplified methods at very high temperatures.
A comprehensive review and assessment of five representative simplified methods for creep-fatigue damage evaluation is presented in Asayama [1]. In this review the SMT methodology was identified as the best long term approach but the need for test data precluded its near term implementation. Asayama and Jetter [2] is a summary of the more comprehensive report by Asayama [1] with a summary of the SMT approach presented by Jetter [3].
In this paper, the previously documented development of the SMT approach and applicable restrictions are discussed and reviewed; the design of the SMT specimen, measurement issues and constraints are presented; the test apparatus and measurement system is described; initial test results and their application to a prototypic design curve are presented; and further testing and analysis for ASME Code incorporation are discussed.

ID FATIGUE BEHAVIOR; TEMPERATURE
AB The flow stress of many materials is a function of the applied strain rate at elevated temperature. The magnitude of this effect is captured by the strain rate sensitivity parameter "m". The strain rate sensitivity of two face center cubic solid solution alloys that are proposed for use in high temperature heat exchanger or steam generator applications, Alloys 800H and 617, has been determined as a function of temperature over that range of temperatures relevant for these applications. In addition to determining the strain rate sensitivity, it is important for nuclear design within Section III of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code to determine temperature below which the flow stress is not affected by the strain rate. This temperature has been determined for both Alloy 800H and Alloy 617. At high temperature the strain rate sensitivity of the two alloys is significant and they have similar m values. For Alloy 617 the temperature limit below which little or no strain rate sensitivity is observed is approximately 700 degrees C. For Alloy 800H this temperature is approximately 650 degrees C.

AB The ASME Special Working Group on Computational Modeling for Explicit Dynamics was founded in August 2008 for the purpose of creating a quantitative guidance document for the development of finite element models used to analyze energy-limited events using explicit dynamics software. This document will be referenced in the ASME Code Section III, Division 3 and the next revision of NRC Regulatory Guide 7.6 as a means by which the quality of a finite element model may be judged. One portion of the document will be devoted to a series of element convergence studies that can aid designers in establishing the mesh refinement requirements necessary to achieve accurate results for a variety of different element types in regions of high plastic strain. These convergence studies will also aid reviewers in evaluating the quality of a finite element model and the apparent accuracy of its results.
In this paper, the authors present the results of a convergence study for an impulsively loaded propped cantilever beam constructed of LS-DYNA hexahedral elements using both reduced and selectively reduced integration. Three loading levels are considered; the first maintains strains within the elastic range, the second induces moderate plastic strains, and the third produces large deformations and large plastic strains.

AB The transient deflagration code DPAC (Deflagration Pressure Analysis Code) has been upgraded for use in modeling hydrogen deflagration transients. The upgraded code is benchmarked using data from vented hydrogen deflagration tests conducted at the HYDRO-SC Test Facility at the University of Pisa. DPAC originally was written to calculate peak deflagration pressures for deflagrations in radioactive waste storage tanks and process facilities at the Savannah River Site. Upgrades include the addition of a laminar flame speed correlation for hydrogen deflagrations and a mechanistic model for turbulent flame propagation, incorporation of inertial effects during venting, and inclusion of the effect of water vapor condensation on vessel walls. In addition, DPAC has been coupled with CEA, a NASA combustion chemistry code. The deflagration tests are modeled as end-to-end deflagrations. The improved DPAC code successfully predicts both the peak pressures during the deflagration tests and the times at which the pressure peaks.

Radiolytic gas generation rates, PCV internal gas pressures, and shipping windows (times to reach unacceptable gas compositions or pressures after closure of the PCV) are calculated for shipment of a 9975 PCV containing a plastic bottle filled with plutonium and uranium oxides with a selected isotopic composition. G-values for radiolytic hydrogen generation from adsorbed moisture are estimated from the results of gas generation tests for plutonium oxide and uranium oxide doped with curium-244. The radiolytic generation of hydrogen from the plastic bottle is calculated using a geometric model for alpha particle deposition in the bottle wall. The temperature of the PCV during shipment is estimated from the results of finite element heat transfer analyses.

AB The robust optimization presented in this paper is formulated to assist in early-stage wind farm development. It can help wind farm developers predict project viability and can help landowners predict where turbines will be placed on their land. A wind farm layout is optimized under multiple sources of uncertainty. Landowner participation is represented with a novel uncertain model of willingness-to-accept monetary compensation. An uncertain wind shear parameter and economies-of-scale cost reduction parameter are also included. Probability Theory, Latin Hypercube Sampling, and Compromise Programming are used to form the robust design problem and minimize the two objectives: the normalized mean and standard deviation of Cost-of-Energy. The results suggest that some landowners that will only accept high levels of compensation are worth pursuing, while others are not.

AB The design of manufacturing systems in hazardous environments is complex, requiring interdisciplinary knowledge to determine which components and operators (human or robotic) are feasible. When conceptualizing designs, some options may be overlooked or unknowingly infeasible due to the design engineers' lack of knowledge in a particular field or ineffective communication of requirements between disciplines. Computational design tools can help alleviate many of the problems encountered in this design task. We create a knowledge-based system (KBS) utilizing CLIPS to automate the synthesis of conceptual manufacturing system designs in radioactive environments. The KBS takes a high-level functional description of a process and uses FBS modeling to generate multiple designs with generic components retrieved from a database and low-level manufacturing task sequences. Using this approach, many options are explored and operator task compatibility is directly addressed. The KBS is applied to the design of glovebox processing systems at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).

AB This paper significantly advanced the hybrid measure-correlate-predict (MCP) methodology, enabling it to account for the variations of both wind speed and direction. The advanced hybrid MCP method used the recorded data of multiple reference stations to estimate the long-term wind condition at the target wind plant site with greater accuracy than possible with data from a single reference station. The wind data was divided into different sectors according to the wind direction, and the MCP strategy was implemented for each wind sector separately. The applicability of the proposed hybrid strategy was investigated using four different MCP methods: (i) linear regression; (ii) variance ratio; (iii) artificial neural networks; and (iv) support vector regression. To implement the advanced hybrid MCP methodology, we used the hourly averaged wind data recorded at six stations in North Dakota between the years 2008 and 2010. The station Pillsbury was selected as the target plant site. The recorded data at the other five stations (Dazey, Galesbury, Hillsboro, Mayville, and Prosper) was used as reference station data. The best hybrid MCP strategy from different MCP algorithms and reference stations was investigated and selected from the 1,024 combinations. The accuracy of the hybrid MCP method was found to be highly sensitive to the combination of individual MCP algorithms and reference stations used. It was also observed that the best combination of MCP algorithms was strongly influenced by the length of the correlation period.

AB Joint torque feedback is useful in serial manipulator control algorithms for contact control, collision detection, performance analysis, etc. For example, the predicted torque can be compared to the measured torque so the system can respond to unexpected or unmodeled physical inputs. The input current to the joint motors can be used to estimate the input torque if the motor parameters are well-understood. However, in a closed commercial system, the motor parameters are often proprietary or unknown. Also, systems that sense or estimate motor torques instead of the joint torques require compensation for gear train losses.
In this work, we propose a method for mapping the measured motor current to the joint torque on a serial manipulator without joint torque sensors, thus advancing the potential to implement torque feedback algorithms such as collision detection on any industrial robot with joint position and motor current feedback. This new torque estimating technique (as opposed to using Newton-Euler dynamics) allows for sensing of external forces in collision detection applications for a position controlled robot.
The method requires knowledge of the robot link centers of mass, masses, and inertias and that the motor currents and joint positions can be measured. The joint torques due to gravity, inertia, and Coriolis are estimated by the Newton-Euler method using the system geometry, link masses, and the measured joint positions. A method for estimating friction losses using only the current and the predicted joint torque is demonstrated. The measured current, less estimated friction, is then mapped to the joint torque.
The validity of the black box joint torque estimating model was demonstrated using two Motoman SIA-5D manipulators with a 3rd party controller provided by Agile Planet. The joints of the robot were moved through a variety of test motions with known joint torque characteristics (as calculated using Newton-Euler dynamics). Estimated joint torques are similar to the calculated torque. Physical significance of the torque is validated by comparing the estimated torque to the calculated torque generated by a known force. The feasibility of the estimated torque error to force detection is discussed in terms of improving the safety and deployment options for industrial robotic systems.

AB As future land-based gas turbine engines are being designed to operate with inlet temperatures exceeding 1300 degrees C (2370 degrees F), efforts at NETL have been focused on developing advanced materials systems that are integrated with novel airfoil cooling architectures. Recent achievements in the areas of low cost diffusion bond coat systems applied to single- and poly-crystalline nickel-based superalloys, as well as development of thin nickel-based oxide dispersion strengthened layers are presented in this paper. Integration of these material systems with commercially cast, novel, pin-fin internal cooling airfoil arrays, tripod film cooling hole architectures, trailing edge cooling geometries, and near surface micro-channel concepts is also presented.

AB A data noise reduction model for a direct-fired fuel cell turbine hybrid power system was evaluated using a hardware-based simulation of an integrated gasifier/fuel cell/turbine hybrid cycle (IGFC), implemented through the Hybrid Performance (HyPer) project at the National Energy Technology Laboratory, U.S. Department of Energy (NETL). The Hyper facility is designed to explore dynamic operation of hybrid systems and quantitatively characterize such transient behavior
The system is controlled by an embedded real-time control platform provided by Woodward Industrial Control. Every sensor is monitored by the platform, and an overall strategy drives the system from start-up to shut-down. Fuel is regulated by a valve which reacts based on the speed of the turbine. There are three optical encoder sensors which are used to monitor turbine speed, and the average of these three sensors is used as feedback for a PID controller, which works to regulate fuel consumption to the combustor The turbine speed has demonstrated fluctuation in certain conditions, which may be a result of data noise combined with a systemic instability in the flow to the turbine.
This research introduces the method of Double Exponential Smoothing as it is applied to data noise reduction in an embedded control platform. An experimental test was conducted to evaluate the performance of the fuel valve speed control when filtered by a real-time Double Exponential Smoothing Algorithm. The results demonstrate, that when compared with traditional filtering techniques, Double Exponential Smoothing offers a significant improvement in both signal volatility and data latency.

AB An understanding of the high temperature mechanics experienced in Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC) during cycling conditions would be highly beneficial to extending the lifespan of the coatings. This study will present results obtained using synchrotron x-rays to measure depth resolved strains in the various layers of TBCs under thermal mechanical loading and a superposed thermal gradient. Tubular specimens, coated with Yttria Stabilized Zirconia (YSZ) and an aluminum containing nickel alloy as a bond coat both through Electron Beam Physical Vapor Deposition (EB-PVD), were subjected to external heating and controlled internal cooling generating a thermal gradient across the specimen's wall. Temperatures at the external surface were in excess of 1000 degrees C. Throughout high temperature testing, 2-D high-resolution XRD strain measurements are taken at various locations through the entire depth of the coating layers. Across the YSZ a strain gradient was observed showing higher compressive strain at the interface to the bond coat than towards the surface. This behavior can be attributed to the specific microstructure of the EB-PVD-coating, which reveals higher porosity at the outer surface than at the interface to the bond coat, resulting in a lower in plane modulus near the surface. This location at the interface displays the most significant variation due to applied load at room temperature with this effect diminishing at elevated uniform temperatures. During thermal cycling with a thermal gradient and mechanical loading, the bond coat strain moves from a highly tensile state at room temperature to an initially compressive state at high temperature before relaxing to zero during the high temperature hold. The results of these experiments give insight into previously unseen material behavior at high temperature which can be used to develop an increased understanding of various failure modes and their causes.

AB Hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HiLS) is a specific technique designed in the experimental environment for studying the coupling between different technologies, where simulated and hardware components interact to each other. Two different HiLS facilities used for educational and research purposes are examined in the paper: the Hybrid Performance (Hyper) project facility at the U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), and the Hybrid system emulator at the Thermochemical Power Group (TPG) facility, run by the University of Genoa in Italy. Since one facility is at a national laboratory and the other one in a university environment, both facilities dedicate considerable resources to the education of students with a different perspective: industrial and experimental approach.
A description of the two configurations, the unique and overlapping attributes of each facility and the experimental results are reported and discussed to show different possibilities for students and researchers. Undergraduates, Postgraduates and Ph.D. students have the opportunity to learn innovative configuration of energy power systems, innovative control strategies applied to hybrid configurations, how to design real hardware components, and how to implementation real-time simulation models. The strong impact of these two laboratories is to show to students the applicability about their knowledge studied during lectures.

AB A hardware-in-the-loop-simulation (HiLS) procedure for a direct-fired fuel cell turbine hybrid power system was evaluated for an integrated gasifier/fuel cell/turbine hybrid cycle (IGFC), implemented through the Hybrid Performance (Hyper) project at the National Energy Technology Laboratory, U.S. Department of Energy (NETL). The Hyper facility is designed to explore dynamic operation of hybrid systems and quantitatively characterize such transient behaviour. It is possible to model, test and evaluate the effects of different parameters on the design and operation of a gasifier/fuel cell/gas turbine hybrid system and quantify risk mitigation strategies.
The previous implementation of emergency shut-down control strategies resulted in turbomachinery hardware failure. The primary linking event in these cases was compressor stall and surge resulting from the sudden loss of fuel during implementation of the standard double block and bleed strategy used during emergency failure. A new mitigation strategy involving automated ramps is proposed and described in detail to control the system from start-up to forced emergency shut-down. The control architecture shows how the virtual fuel cell model can be coupled to the real gas turbine safely, in all of stage of operations. The paper includes improvements to the emergency shutdown procedure, failure analyses, and the comparison of experimental data with previous results.

AB Coatings are frequently required to provide oxidation protection for high temperature materials. Silicon carbide (SiC) coatings have been used to protect carbon-carbon composites on leading edges and zirconia coatings are used as thermal barriers on gas turbine aerofoils. The effectiveness and durability of these coatings is dependent on the residual strains created in these coatings during their formation or deposition and also during service. Tensile strains in the plane of the coating can lead to through thickness cracks that expose the substrate, while compressive strains can cause the coating to delaminate. This paper presents strain measurements of these high temperature material systems obtained with high energy X-ray diffraction. The diffraction also provided useful information on phase, crystallite size and texture as a function of depth. Tensile strains were found in the SiC coatings, and compressive strains were found in the zirconia coatings. Both these strains were parallel to their coatings' surfaces. The differences in thermal expansion coefficients between the coatings and their substrates can account for both the compressive strain in the zirconia and the tensile strain in the SiC.

AB Image-based classification of histology sections plays an important role in predicting clinical outcomes. However this task is very challenging due to the presence of large technical variations (e.g., fixation, staining) and biological heterogeneities (e.g., cell type, cell state). In the field of biomedical imaging, for the purposes of visualization and/or quantification, different stains are typically used for different targets of interest (e.g., cellular/subcellular events), which generates multi-spectrum data (images) through various types of microscopes and, as a result, provides the possibility of learning biological-component-specific features by exploiting multispectral information. We propose a multispectral feature learning model that automatically learns a set of convolution filter banks from separate spectra to efficiently discover the intrinsic tissue morphometric signatures, based on convolutional sparse coding (CSC). The learned feature representations are then aggregated through the spatial pyramid matching framework (SPM) and finally classified using a linear SVM. The proposed system has been evaluated using two large-scale tumor cohorts, collected from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). Experimental results show that the proposed model 1) outperforms systems utilizing sparse coding for unsupervised feature learning (e. g., PSD-SPM [5]); 2) is competitive with systems built upon features with biological prior knowledge (e. g., SMLSPM [4]).

ID OPTICAL COMMUNICATION
AB This paper considers underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) for submarine surveillance and monitoring. Nodes produce data with an associated value, decaying in time. An autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is sent to retrieve information from the nodes, through optical communication, and periodically emerges to deliver the collected data to a sink, located on the surface or onshore. Our objective is to determine a collection path for the AUV so that the Value of Information (VoI) of the data delivered to the sink is maximized. To this purpose, we first define an Integer Linear Programming (ILP) model for path planning that considers realistic data communication rates, distances, and surfacing constraints. We then define the first heuristic for path finding that is adaptive to the occurrence of new events, relying only on acoustic communication for exchanging short control messages. Our Greedy and Adaptive AUV Pathfinding (GAAP) heuristic drives the AUV to collect packets from nodes to maximize the VoI of the delivered data. We compare the VoI of data obtained by running the optimum solution derived by the ILP model to that obtained from running GAAP over UWSNs with realistic and desirable size. In our experiments GAAP consistently delivers more than 80% of the theoretical maximum VoI determined by the ILP model.

AB The numerous malware variants existing in the cyberspace have posed severe threats to its security. Supervised learning techniques have been applied to automate the process of classifying malware variants. Supervised learning, however, suffers in situations where we have only scarce labeled malware samples. In this work, we propose a transductive malware classification framework, which propagates label information from labeled instances to unlabeled ones. We improve the existing Harmonic function approach based on the maximum confidence principle. We apply this framework on the structural information collected from malware programs, and propose a PageRank-like algorithm to evaluate the distance between two malware programs. We evaluate the performance of our method against the standard Harmonic function method as well as two popular supervised learning techniques. Experimental results suggest that our method outperforms these existing approaches in classifying malware variants when only a small number of labeled samples are available.

AB Smart meters are integral to demand response in emerging smart grids, by reporting the electricity consumption of users to serve application needs. But reporting real-time usage information for individual households raises privacy concerns. Existing techniques to guarantee differential privacy (DP) of smart meter users either are not fault tolerant or achieve (possibly partial) fault tolerance at high communication overheads. In this paper, we propose a fault-tolerant protocol for smart metering that can handle general communication failures while ensuring DP with significantly improved efficiency and lower errors compared with the state of the art. Our protocol handles fail-stop faults proactively by using a novel design of future ciphertexts, and distributes trust among the smart meters by sharing secret keys among them. We prove the DP properties of our protocol and analyze its advantages in fault tolerance, accuracy, and communication efficiency relative to competing techniques. We illustrate our analysis by simulations driven by real-world traces of electricity consumption.

AB This paper presents an agricultural residue removal decision framework that couples the environmental process models WEPS, RUSLE2, SCI, and DAYCENT. One of the goals of this integrated model is to quantify the impacts of land management strategies on soil organic carbon and CO2 emissions. Soil, climate, and land management practices are considered in determining sustainable residue removal rates using wind- and water-induced soil erosion and qualitative soil organic carbon constraints and to quantify the long-term impacts of sustainable residue removal on soil organic carbon and greenhouse gas emissions. Using this integrated model sustainable residue removal for four crop rotations, three tillage regimes, and four soil types representing nearly 70% of the arable acres in Boone County, Iowa are examined. Each scenario was performed for a twenty-year period. Soil organic carbon and CO2 emission results are aggregated by soil type using crop rotation and tillage statistics. The soil type results are aggregated using a normalized percentage area to provide a county level estimate of soil organic carbon changes and CO2 emissions. Results show that for the largest sustainable residue removal rate that soil organic carbon increased 3.53 - 6.63 Mg/ha over the 20 year simulation and that CO2 emissions ranged from 3.50 - 4.23 Mg/ha across the four soil types resulting in an average increase of soil organic carbon of 4.85 Mg/ha and CO2 emission of 3.77 Mg/ha at the county level.

AB Engineering feedstock supply systems that deliver affordable, high-quality biomass remains a challenge for the emerging bioenergy industry. Cellulosic biomass is geographically distributed and has diverse physical and chemical properties. Because of this feedstock supply systems that deliver cellulosic biomass resources to biorefineries require integration of a broad set of engineered unit operations. These unit operations include harvest and collection, storage, preprocessing, and transportation processes. Design decisions for each feedstock supply system unit operation impact the engineering design and performance of the other system elements. These interdependencies are further complicated by spatial and temporal variances such as climate conditions and biomass characteristics. This paper develops an integrated model that couples a SQL-based data management engine and systems dynamics models to design and evaluate biomass feedstock supply systems. The integrated model, called the Biomass Logistics Model (BLM), includes a suite of databases that provide 1) engineering performance data for hundreds of equipment systems, 2) spatially explicit labor cost datasets, and 3) local tax and regulation data. The BLM analytic engine is built in the systems dynamics software package Powersim (TM). The BLM is designed to work with thermochemical and biochemical based biofuel conversion platforms and accommodates a range of cellulosic biomass types (i.e., herbaceous residues, short- rotation woody and herbaceous energy crops, woody residues, algae, etc.). The BLM simulates the flow of biomass through the entire supply chain, tracking changes in feedstock characteristics (i.e., moisture content, dry matter, ash content, and dry bulk density) as influenced by the various operations in the supply chain. By accounting for all of the equipment that comes into contact with biomass from the point of harvest to the throat of the conversion facility and the change in characteristics, the BLM evaluates economic performance of the engineered system, as well as determining energy consumption and green house gas performance of the design. This paper presents a BLM case study delivering corn stover to produce cellulosic ethanol. The case study utilizes the BLM to model the performance of several feedstock supply system designs. The case study also explores the impact of temporal variations in climate conditions to test the sensitivity of the engineering designs. Results from the case study show that under certain conditions corn stover can be delivered to the cellulosic ethanol biorefinery for $35/dry ton.

AB Numerical prediction of the Stage 67 transonic fan stage employing wall jet tip injection flow control and study of the physical mechanisms leading to stall suppression and stability enhancement afforded by endwall recirculation/injection is the foals of this paper. Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes computations were used to perform detailed analysis of the Stage 67 configuration experimentally tested at NASA's Glenn Research Center in 2004. Time varying predictions of the stage plus recirculation and injection flowpath were executed utilizing the Nonlinear Harmonic approach. Significantly higher grid resolution per passage was achieved than what has been generally employed in prior reported numerical studies of spike stall phenomena in transonic compressors. This paper focuses on characterizing the physics of spike stall embryonic stage phenomena and the influence of tip injection, resulting in experimentally and numerically demonstrated stall suppression.

AB Next generation aircraft will require more onboard electrical power generation capacity as systems previously powered by engine bleed and hydraulics are electrified and new electricity based technologies are integrated. Increasing the amount of electrical power generated from aircraft main engines reduces thrust capacity and thrust specific fuel consumption (TSFC), but could increase specific fuel consumption (SFC). An alternative cycle with very high conversion efficiencies is proposed for electrical power production on aircraft. The unique cycle, termed a SOFC combustor, integrates a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) with existing onboard combustion based engines. The SOFC combustor produces direct current (DC) electrical power and provides high temperature exhaust for use in the expansion process of the aircraft engine. The SOFC combustor utilizes compressed air from the engine's compressor and vaporized fuel to produce DC current. Fuel and air not utilized by the fuel cell are converted to thermal products by an aerodynamically stabilized combustion system capable of adapting to fuel/air and pressure variations. Hot products from the combustion system are returned to the main engines for use as thrust or mechanical shaft work. System level results will be presented for overall impact to aircraft engine specific fuel consumption.

AB Many SCO2 Brayton cycle demonstration loops have been constructed or are being planned at various thermal power levels between several kilowatts up to 50MW. However experiences at Sandia National Labs and other organizations have demonstrated that few options exist to procure off-theshelf heat exchangers, especially for higher temperature ranges, due to high operating and differential pressures and the cost of materials with sufficient strength above 600 degrees C. This paper reviews fundamental mechanical scaling considerations governing SCO2 cycle heat exchangers that should be considered when designing and constructing SCO2 cycles. Current manufacturing limitations will also be reviewed.

AB Currently, waste heat rejection from electrical power systems accounts for the largest fraction of water withdrawals from the US fresh water table. Siting of nuclear power plants is limited to areas with access to a large natural supply of fresh or sea water Due to a rise in energy needs and increased concern over environmental impact, dry air cooling systems are poised to play a large role in the future energy economy. In practice, the implementation of thy air-cooled condensing systems at steam plants has proven to be capital-intensive and requires the power cycle to take a significant efficiency penalty. These shortcomings are fundamental to dry-air steam condensation, which must occur at a fixed temperature. Closed-cycle gas turbines are an alternative to the conventional steam Rankine plant that allow for much improved dry heat rejection compatibility. Recent research into advanced nuclear energy systems has identified the supercritical CO2 (s-CO2) Brayton cycle in particular as a viable candidate for many proposed reactor types. The s-CO2 Brayton cycle can maintain superior thermal efficiency over a wide range of ambient temperatures, making these power systems ideally suited for dry air cooling, even in warm climates. For an SFR operating at 550 degrees C, thermal efficiency is calculated to be 43% with a 50 degrees C compressor inlet temperature. This is achieved by raising CO2 compressor inlet pressure in response to rising ambient temperatures. Preliminary design studies have shown that s-CO2 power cycle hardware will be compact and therefore well-matched to near-term and advanced integral SMR designs. These advantages also extend to the cooling plant, where it is estimated that dry cooling towers for an SFR-coupled s-CO2 power cycle will be similar in cost and scale to the evaporative cooling tower for an LWR. The projected benefits of the s-CO2 power cycle coupled to dry air heat rejection may enable the long-awaited rise of next-generation nuclear energy systems, while re-drawing the map for siting of small and large nuclear energy systems.

AB Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (S-CO2) is emerging as a potential working fluid in power-production Brayton cycles. As a result, concerns have been raised regarding fluid purity within the power cycle loops. Additionally, investigations into the longevity of the S-CO2 power cycle materials are being conducted to quantify the advantages of using S-CO2 versus other fluids, since S-CO2 promises substantially higher efficiencies. One potential issue with S-CO2 systems is intergranular corrosion [1]. At this time, Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) is establishing a materials baseline through the analysis of 1) "as received" stainless steel piping, and 2) piping exposed to S-CO2 under typical operating conditions with SNL's Brayton systems. Results from ongoing investigations are presented.
A second issue that SNL has discovered involves substantial erosion in the turbine blade and inlet nozzle. It is believed that this is caused by small particulates that originate from different materials around the loop that are entrained by the S-CO2 to the nozzle, where they impact the inlet nozzle vanes, causing erosion. We believe that, in some way, this is linked to the purity of the S-CO2, the corrosion contaminants, and the metal particulates that are present in the loop and its components.

AB Supercritical Carbon Dioxide (S-CO2) is an efficient and flexible working fluid for power production. Research to interface S-CO2 systems with nuclear, thermal solar, and fossil energy sources are currently underway. To proceed, we must address concerns regarding high temperature compatibility of materials and compatibility between significantly different heat transfer fluids.
Dry, pure S-CO2 is thought to be relatively inert [1], while ppm levels of water and oxygen result in formation of a protective chromia layer and iron oxide [2]. Thin oxides are favorable as diffusion barriers, and for their minimal impact on heat transfer. Chromia, however, is soluble in molten salt systems (nitrate, chloride, and fluoride based salts) [3-8]. Fluoride anion based systems required the development of the alloy INOR-8 (Hastelloy N, base nickel, 17%Mo) [9] to ensure that chromium diffusion is minimized, thereby maximizing the life of containment vessels.
This paper reviews the thermodynamic and kinetic considerations for promising, industrially available materials for both salt and S-CO2 systems.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy Office of Nuclear Energy (DOE-NE) supercritical carbon dioxide recompression closed Brayton cycle (RCBC) test assembly (TA) construction has been completed to its original design and resides at Sandia National Laboratories, New Mexico. Commissioning tests were completed in July 2012, followed by a number of tests in both the recompression CBC configuration, and in a bottoming cycle configuration that is proprietary to a current customer. While the test assembly has been developed and installed to support testing, a computer model of the loop, written in Fortran programming language, has also been developed. The purpose of this iterative model is to facilitate data interpretation, guide test assembly design modifications, develop control schemes, and serve as a foundation from which to develop a transient model. Of central utility is its modular nature, which has already been leveraged to develop a customer's bottoming cycle configuration. Verification that the model uses appropriate physical representations of components and processes, is performing as intended, and validation that the model accurately reproduces test data, are necessary activities. Completion of the model's verification and validation (V&V) supports the long-term goal of commercializing the RCBC for a sodium fast reactor. This paper presents verification results of certain subprocesses of the iterative computer model. Verification of these subprocesses was completed with positive results. While an adequate range of data for complete and thorough validation do not yet exist, comparison of subprocess predictions with data from a single, representative operating point are presented as are explanations for differences. Recommendations for activities necessary to complete subprocess and model validation are given. The RCBC iterative computer model V&V process should be revisited following completion of these recommended actions and the generation of steady state data while operating near the test assembly design point.

AB This paper describes a detailed experimental investigation of a narrow rectangular channel based on the double-wall cooling concept that can be applicable to a gas turbine airfoil. The channel has dimensions of 63.5 mm by 12.7 mm, corresponding to an aspect ratio of 5:1. A single pin-fin element, arranged in 9 rows is fitted into the channel. The pin diameter, D, is 12.7 mm, and the ratio of pin-height-to-diameter, H/D is 1. The pins are arranged based on the typical inter-pin spacing of 2.5D in both spanwise and streamwise directions. The Reynolds number, based on the hydraulic diameter of the pin fin and the mean bulk velocity, ranges from 6,000 to 15,000. The experiments employ a hybrid technique based on transient liquid crystal imaging to obtain the distributions of the local heat transfer coefficient over all of the participating surfaces, including the endwalls and all the pin elements. Commercially available CFD software, ANSYS CFX, is used to qualitatively correlate the experimental results and to provide detailed insights of the flow field created by the array.The heat transfer on both the endwall and pin-fin surfaces revealed similar pattern compared to the typical circular pin-fin array, which were conducted at higher Reynolds number. The total heat transfer enhancement of current pin-fin array is approximately five times higher than that of fully developed smooth channel with low pressure loss, which resulted in much higher thermal performance compared to other pin-fin array as reported in the literature.

AB turbine airfoils, which can provide high heat transfer rate and pressure loss from repeated significant area contractions. This paper describes the detailed experimental studies of heat transfer enhancement and pressure loss characteristics internal cooling passages using single, double and triple blockages equipped with straight and inclined holes. The blockage consist of 7 holes with the diameter, D=6.35mm, which is 0.5 of the height of the channel. Three different hole inclination angles ranging from 0 degrees, 15 degrees and 30 degrees from the horizontal plane are explored. The case with straight holes (0) is considered as baseline case, while the cases with inclined holes are introduced to enhance heat transfer performance. The transient liquid crystal technique is employed to deduce the heat transfer coefficient on the internal cooling channel, while the pressure loss of the entire channel is measured using pressure taps connected to the digital manometer. Numerical analysis is later performed using ANSYS CFX, based on the shear stress turbulence (SST) model to provide detailed insights about the flow field in the channel, which explains the heat transfer phenomena caused by varying the hole inclination angle. The heat transfer performance of the blockages is higher than conventional configuration using vortex generators, i.e., pin-fms by approximately two folds, while accompanied by much higher pressure loss. The proposed inclined holes array exhibits more effective impingement effects resulted in a substantial cooling performance compared to the baseline case by approximately 50%. This design can be applicable to the trailing edge of gas

AB This paper describes a new gas turbine research facility that was designed and is currently being constructed with a number of unique features that allow experiments which aim at developing and improving sealing and cooling technologies at a reasonable cost. Experiments will include engine-representative rotating turbine hardware in a continuous, steady-state, high-pressure flow environment. The facility includes a 1.5 stage turbine that will simulate the aerodynamic flow and thermal field interactions in the engine between the hot mainstream gas path and the secondary air flows at relevant corrected operating conditions and scaling parameters. Testing in the new facility is planned to begin in 2014 and will take place in two phases. The first phase is focused on understanding the behavior of inner-stage gap flow leakages in the presence of the main gas path and the rotating blade platform. The second phase is focused on developing and testing novel cooling methods for turbine airfoils, platforms, and disks, ultimately leading to an integrated approach for more effective use of the secondary cooling flow. The uniqueness of this facility includes a continuous duration facility with engine-relevant rotational and axial Reynolds and Mach numbers at the blade inlet.

AB Sustainable reliance on hydrocarbon feedstocks for energy generation requires CO2 separation technology development for energy efficient carbon capture from industrial mixed gas streams. High temperature H-2 selective glassy polymer membranes are an attractive option for energy efficient H-2/CO2 separations in advanced power production schemes with integrated carbon capture. They enable high overall process efficiencies by providing energy efficient CO2 separations at process relevant operating conditions and correspondingly, minimized parasitic energy losses. Polybenzimidazole (PBI)-based materials have demonstrated commercially attractive H-2/CO2 separation characteristics and exceptional tolerance to hydrocarbon fuel derived synthesis (syngas) gas operating conditions and chemical environments. To realize a commercially attractive carbon capture technology based on these PBI materials, development of high performance, robust PBI hollow fiber membranes (HFMs) is required. In this work, we discuss outcomes of our recent efforts to demonstrate and optimize the fabrication and performance of PBI HFMs for use in pre-combustion carbon capture schemes. These efforts have resulted in PBI HFMs with commercially attractive fabrication protocols, defect minimized structures, and commercially attractive permselectivity characteristics at IGCC syngas process relevant conditions. The H-2/CO2 separation performance of these PBI HFMs presented here in realistic process conditions is greater than that of any other polymeric system reported to-date. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB Partnering in Innovation, Inc. (Pi-Innovation) introduces an aqueous post-combustion carbon dioxide (CO2) capture system (Pi-CO2) that offers high market value by directly addressing the primary constraints limiting beneficial re-use markets (lowering parasitic energy costs, reducing delivered cost of capture, eliminating the need for special solvents, etc.). A highly experienced team has completed initial design, modeling, manufacturing verification, and financial analysis for commercial market entry. Coupled thermodynamic and thermal-hydraulic mass transfer modeling results fully support proof of concept. Pi-CO2 has the potential to lower total cost and risk to levels sufficient to stimulate global demand for CO2 from local industrial sources. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Numeric optimization has successfully been applied in the chemical industry to improve process performance, reduce emissions, create advanced control systems and intelligently explore process design alternatives. Regarding power plants, optimization methods provide a systematic approach to balance trade-offs when designing efficient and minimal cost carbon capture systems. Coal oxycombustion power plants are an ideal candidate for optimization, given the complex trade-offs regarding flue gas recycle strategies, heat integration and design of cryogenic separation systems.
Many oxycombustion studies consider sensitivity analysis instead of multi-variable optimization, which neglect consequentially important interactions between subsystems. Furthermore, these studies rely on over-simplified boiler models available in commercial process simulators. In this paper we present a hybrid 1D/3D boiler model that balances accuracy and computational expense, making it well suited for optimization studies of an entire coal power plant. This model is then incorporated into an equation-based optimization framework for power plants. Trust region optimization methods are used to ensure convergence. Finally a proof-of-concept case study is presented, and future work is discussed. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Efficient separation systems are essential to the development of economical CO2 capture system for fossil flue power plants. Air Separation Units (ASU) and CO2 Processing Units (CPU) are considering the best commercially available technologies for the O-2/N-2 and CO2/N-2, O-2, Ar separations in coal oxycombustion processes. Both of these systems operate at cryogenic temperatures and include self-integrated refrigeration cycles, making their design challenging. Several researchers have applied sensitivity tools available in the commercial flow sheet simulators to study and improve ASU and CPU systems for oxy-fired coal power plants. These studies are limited, however, as they neglect important interactions between design variables.
In this paper, we apply an advanced equation-based flowsheet optimization framework to design these cryogenic separations systems. The key advantage of this approach is the ability to use state-of-the-art nonlinear optimization solvers that are capable of considering 100,000+ variables and constraints. This allows for multi-variable optimization of these cryogenic separations systems and their accompanying multi-stream heat exchangers. The effectiveness of this approach is demonstrated in two case studies. The optimized ASU designs requires 0.196 kWh/kg of O-2, which are similar to a "low energy" design from American Air Liquide and outperforms other academic studies. Similarly, the optimized CPU requires 18% less specific separation energy than an academic reference case. Pareto (sensitivity) curves for the ASU and CPU systems are also presented. Finally, plans to apply the framework to simultaneously optimize an entire oxycombustion process are discussed. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Under the auspices of the U.S. Department of Energy's Carbon Capture Simulation Initiative (CCSI), a Framework for Optimization and Quantification of Uncertainty and Sensitivity (FOQUS) has been developed. This tool enables carbon capture systems to be rapidly synthesized and rigorously optimized, in an environment that accounts for and propagates uncertainties in parameters and models. FOQUS currently enables (1) the development of surrogate algebraic models utilizing the ALAMO algorithm, which can be used for superstructure optimization to identify optimal process configurations, (2) simulation-based optimization utilizing derivative free optimization (DFO) algorithms with detailed black-box process models, and (3) rigorous uncertainty quantification through PSUADE. FOQUS utilizes another CCSI technology, the Turbine Science Gateway, to manage the thousands of simulated runs necessary for optimization and UQ. This computational framework has been demonstrated for the design and analysis of a solid sorbent based carbon capture system. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Multi-scale dynamic capture models are often too computationally expensive for use in real-time applications, such as operator training and online process control. As a result, innovative methods are required to reduce the complexity of PDE-based and rate-based dynamic models while preserving input-output behavior. In this study, dynamic reduced models (D-RMs) approximate the high-fidelity capture models, thereby offering a trade-off between accuracy, range of applicability, and computational cost. In this paper, we highlight a D-RM builder tool that automatically generates fast D-RMs using pre-computed results from repeated simulation of high-fidelity dynamic process models. Dynamic uncertainty quantification (UQ) analysis is provided that quantifies confidence in the generated D-RM when used as a surrogate 'plant' model. In addition, an Advanced Process Control (APC) framework tool is presented, which uses these reduced-order surrogate models as fast predictive-model(s) for implementing various nonlinear model-predictive control (NMPC) strategies. The developed framework is targeted towards superior disturbance rejection and better responsiveness to demand-changes for otherwise slow capture processes. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Optimization; Solvents
AB There are increasing efforts by the United States government and private industry to develop advanced technologies to mitigate anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions that are contributing to global climate change. One very promising approach to reducing greenhouse emissions is to capture and compress CO2 at a power plant, then transport it to a storage site and inject it for long-term storage in any of a variety of suitable geologic formations. The United States Department of Energy (DOE) is investing in advanced technologies to significantly reduce the cost of capture from pulverized coal, integrated coal gasification combined-cycle, and natural gas fired power systems. The DOE is providing research and development (R&D) funding for over 60 individual projects that are investigating a wide variety of CO2 separation techniques for these systems, including various approaches utilizing advanced solvents, sorbents, and membranes. Research also includes the development of advanced processes and related components to support these new separation technologies and improve the efficiency of the capture systems. It has become clear that integrating the various advanced processes and components with the advanced separation technologies in different combinations will be necessary to reduce the costs to levels which will make power plants with carbon capture and storage (CCS) competitive with other sources of electric power generation.
This study consisted of a systematic a review of seven DOE-supported R&D projects active in 2013 and developing advanced solvent technology systems for post combustion capture from pulverized coal fired power plants. For the solvents sub-program area, each project in the portfolio addresses a single or multiple technologies that comprise one or more components of a complete functioning advanced carbon capture system. The scope of the review focused on identifying the components of the advanced solvents technologies and how the various components could be combined and integrated to further reduce the cost and improve the efficiency of capture. Theseven R& D projects selected as part of this study were active in 2013 and are developing/testing six different solvents [i. e., monoethanolamine ((MEA) benchmark), MEA/amine variants, Piperazine (PZ), bio-catalyst/enzyme-catalyzed solvent (carbonic anhydrase -(CA)) with potassium carbonate (K2CO3), and a proprietary amine based solvent]. The projects are also evaluating the use of 17 advanced capture system components (e. g., advanced absorber columns, strippers, intercoolers, compression, heat exchangers, etc.).
The approach used in this review was to examine each R& D project and subdivide it into the innovative and unique components or features, and then determine where the individual features could be combined components from other technology systems. Several near-term or second generation technologies were selected and subsequently assembled into various integrated configurations to make complete advanced carbon capture systems. Six conceptual combinations of the technology components were developed to be evaluated for their potential in improving the overall chance of achieving the DOE Program Goals of greater than 90% carbon capture at no more than $ 40/tonne of captured CO2. Each of the combinations was reviewed with the solvent utilized by the primary or base carbon capture (CC) technology developer. The best combination of additional technology components from other projects was then applied to that solvent technology, while attempting not to substantially impact the process conditions. This allows a reasonable evaluation of the potential benefits without compromising the base solvent process.
Six conceptual technology combinations that could have additional benefits by combining the advanced solvents, technologies, and capture processes together were identified. For each combination, a screening evaluation was performed of the various components potential contribution to the combined system improvement in capture efficiency. This evaluation and the estimate of component contributions were based on statements about the technology or component ability to reduce the cost of capture or reduce energy use, as represented by the participant organizations.

AB Micro-encapsulated Carbon Sorbents (MECS) are a new class of carbon capture materials consisting of a CO2-absorbing liquid solvent contained within solid, CO2-permeable, polymer shells. MECS enhance the rate of CO2-absorption for solvents with slow kinetics and prevent solid precipitates from scaling and fouling equipment, two factors that have previously limited the use of sodium carbonate solution for carbon capture. Here, we examine the thermodynamics of sodium carbonate slurries for carbon capture. We model the vapour-liquid-solid equilibria of sodium carbonate and find several features that can contribute to an energy-efficient capture process: very high CO2 pressures in stripping conditions, relatively low water vapour pressures in stripping conditions, and good swing capacity. The potential energy savings compared with an ME A system are discussed. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Quality and location of a carbon dioxide (CO2) storage reservoir are critical for low cost carbon capture and storage (CCS). This analysis models the combination of capture, transportation, and storage costs to estimate a total cost of CCS. Cost of capture at the source is available for annual rates between 4.1 and 0.7 million tonnes of CO2. Cost of transportation is modeled for the distance between the source and the storage reservoir. Cost of CO2 storage is modeled for four representative reservoirs, two Rose Run and two Mt Simon reservoirs, each reservoir in a dome or regional dip structural setting.

AB In this work, we present a collaborative effort between US and Chinese ACTC scientists to create the first comprehensive study of what a large and integrated commercial scale CCUS system could look like in China. We focus on the Ordos Basin, which is slightly larger than New Mexico, the fifth largest state in the US. The basin has a large number of chemical and power industries found within its perimeter, which generate 100s MT of CO2 per year, and has the potential capacity to store CO2 in a wide range of target formations including CO2 utilization. Oil fields and unminable coal seams in the area have been identified targets for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) and enhanced coal bed methane recovery (ECBM) using available waste CO2 streams., As the Ordos Basin shares many key characteristics with the Illinois Basin in the US, we have leveraged experience and understanding of the sequestration potential of the Illinois Basin to enhance and accelerate the assessment of the Ordos Basin.
Using the SimCCS decision model on this candidate network, we developed optimized combinations of CCS infrastructure in response to (1) a CO2 capture target amount and (2) a CO2 tax on emissions. Example results show an emissions penalty below $24/tCO2 does not stimulate any CO2 capture; that is, all industries emit their entire CO2 emissions because it is cheaper than capturing. From $24/tCO2 until $52/tCO2, approximately 50 MtCO2/yr is capture system wide from the cheapest sources (e.g., coal to liquid plants). Beyond $52/tCO2, it becomes economical to capture CO2 from coal-fired power plants. Results from this study show that candidate pipeline routes in the Ordos Basin could avoid high cost areas such as population centers and topographically complex terrain, particularly in the southern portion of the Ordos Basin toward the city of Xi'an.

AB Understanding the long-term response of CO2 injected into porous reservoirs is one of the most important aspects to demonstrate safe and permanent storage. In order to provide quantitative constraints on the long-term impacts of CO2-charged fluids on the integrity of reservoir-caprock systems we recovered some 300m of core from a scientific drill hole through a natural CO2 reservoir, near Green River, Utah. We obtained geomechanical, mineralogical, geochemical, petrophysical and mineralogical laboratory data along the entire length of the core and from non CO2-charged control samples. Furthermore, we performed more detailed studies through portions of low permeability layers in direct contact with CO2-charged layers. This was done to constrain the nature and penetration depths of CO2-promoted fluid-mineral reaction fronts. The major reactions identified include the dissolution of diagenetic dolomite cements and hematite grain coatings, and the precipitation of ankerite and pyrite and have been used as input for geochemical 1D reactive transport modelling, to constrain the magnitude and velocity of the mineral-fluid reaction front.
In addition, we compared geomechanical data from the CO2-exposed core and related unreacted control samples to assess the mechanical stability of reservoir and seal rocks in a CO2 storage complex following mineral dissolution and precipitation for thousands of years. The obtained mechanical parameters were coupled to mineralogy and porosity. Key aim of this work was to better quantify the effect of long-term chemical CO2/brine/rock interactions on the mechanical strength and elastic properties of the studied formations.

AB Continental flood basalts represent one of the largest geologic structures on earth but have received comparatively little attention for geologic storage of CO2. Flood basalt lava flows have flow tops that are porous, permeable, and have large potential capacity for storage of CO2. In appropriate geologic settings, interbedded sediment layers and dense low-permeability basalt rock flow interior sections may act as effective seals allowing time for mineralization reactions to occur. Previous laboratory experiments showed the relatively rapid chemical reaction of CO2-saturated pore water with basalts to form stable carbonate minerals. However, recent laboratory tests with water-saturated supercritical CO2 show that mineralization reactions occur in this phase as well, providing a second and potentially more important mineralization pathway than was previously understood. Field testing of these concepts is proceeding with drilling of the world's first supercritical CO2 injection well in flood basalt being completed in May 2009 near the township of Wallula in Washington State and corresponding CO2 injection permit granted by the State of Washington in March 2011. Injection of a nominal 1000 MT of CO2 was completed in August 2013 and site monitoring is in progress. Well logging conducted immediately after injection termination confirmed the presence of CO2 predominantly within the upper flow top region, and showed no evidence of vertical CO2 migration outside the well casing. Shallow soil gas samples collected around the injection well show no evidence of leakage and fluid and gas samples collected from the injection zone show strongly elevated concentrations of Ca, Mg, Mn, and Fe and C-13/O-18 isotopic shifts that are consistent with basalt-water chemical reactions. If proven viable by this field test and others that are in progress or being planned, major flood basalts in the U.S., India, and perhaps Australia would provide significant additional CO2 storage capacity and additional geologic sequestration options in regions of these countries where conventional storage options are limited.

AB The use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) well log data has the potential to provide in-situ porosity, pore size distributions, and permeability of target carbonate CO2 storage reservoirs. However, these methods which have been successfully applied to sandstones have yet to be completely validated for carbonate reservoirs. Here, we have taken an approach to validate NMR measurements of carbonate rock cores with independent measurements of permeability and pore surface area to volume (S/V) distributions using differential pressure measurements and micro X-ray computed tomography (mu XRCT) imaging methods, respectively. We observe that using standard methods for determining permeability from NMR data incorrectly predicts these values by orders of magnitude. However, we do observe promise that NMR measurements provide reasonable estimates of pore S/V distributions, and with further independent measurements of the carbonate rock properties that universally applicable relationships between NMR measured properties may be developed for in-situ well logging applications of carbonate reservoirs.

ID CO2-INDUCED DISSOLUTION
AB Reactive experiments were performed to expose sample cores from the Arbuckle carbonate reservoir to CO2-acidified brine under reservoir temperature and pressure conditions. The samples consisted of dolomite with varying quantities of calcite and silica/chert. The timescales of monitored pressure decline across each sample (and concurrent increases in permeability) in response to CO2 exposure, as well as the amount of and nature of dissolution features, varied widely among these three experiments. For all samples cores, the experimentally measured initial permeability was at least one order of magnitude or more lower than the values estimated from downhole methods. Nondestructive X-ray computed tomography (XRCT) imaging revealed dissolution features including "wormholes," removal of fracture-filling crystals, and widening of pre-existing pore spaces. In the injection zone sample, multiple fractures may have contributed to the high initial permeability of this core and restricted the distribution of CO2-induced mineral dissolution. In contrast, the pre-existing porosity of the baffle zone sample was much lower and less connected, leading to a lower initial permeability and contributing to the development of a single dissolution channel. While calcite may make up only a small percentage of the overall sample composition, its location and the effects of its dissolution have an outsized effect on permeability responses to CO2 exposure. The XRCT data presented here are informative for building the model domain for numerical simulations of these experiments but require calibration by higher resolution means to confidently evaluate different porosity-permeability relationships.

DE shallow groundwater impacts of CO2; brine migration
ID CARBON SEQUESTRATION
AB If carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration into deep geologic reservoirs is to be accepted by the public and environmental regulators, the possibility of upward leakage into shallow groundwater should be acknowledged and those processes well-understood. Studies of natural CO2 reservoirs and their connection (or lack thereof) with the shallow subsurface is one way to explore these issues. A natural reservoir near Springerville, Arizona, U.S.A. has leaked CO2 to the surface along a fault zone for thousands of years, creating large travertine deposits. In recent times, the CO2 leak rates have declined significantly yet the shallow aquifer is still highly enriched in dissolved CO2. In previous studies, using water level data and simulations we demonstrate that the fault zone provides hydrologic communication between the shallow aquifer and the deeper reservoir. It is reasonable to assume, therefore, that the source of the CO2 in wells completed within the fault zone is the deeper CO2 reservoir. We present water chemistry data to demonstrate the geochemical impact of this CO2 on shallow groundwater quality. Interestingly, arsenic concentrations are elevated, but other trace metals concentrations are not. Previous studies [1,2,3] showed that CO2 originating from magmatic and deep crustal origin is migrating upward along the fault and dissolving into the shallow groundwater. Saline waters are also mixing, to a much lesser degree, but their source was unknown. Here we present strontium isotope data that clearly shows the source to be water/rock interactions with reservoir rocks, which include Paleozoic carbonates, evaporites and shale units.

AB The interactions between water-saturated supercritical carbon dioxide, organics, and minerals are relatively unknown despite being important to carbon sequestration and enhanced hydrocarbon recovery activities. The goals of this study include verification of organic transport through scCO(2) and exploration of whether organic ligands can impact carbonate formation. An in situ near-infrared spectroscopic technique was used to probe supercritical CO2 (scCO(2))-organic mixtures at 35 degrees C and 100 bar. Observation of C-H bands in the spectra collected from scCO(2) equilibrated with a Ca-acetate solution (1.7 m) provided direct evidence of organic partitioning into the scCO(2) phase. A series of high pressure X-ray diffraction experiments at 50 degrees C and 90 bar were performed to investigate how citrate (0.01-0.5 m) affected the coupled dissolution of forsterite and precipitation of magnesium carbonates in scCO(2). In control experiments where no citrate was present, nesquehonite (MgCO3 center dot 3H(2)O) was initially produced as a metastable intermediate that was then converted to magnesite (MgCO3). However, experiments with citrate promoted magnesite, rather than nesquehonite, precipitation, and at the highest concentrations reduced the extent of the carbonation reaction. This paper discusses these unique findings on organic and scCO(2) interactions that are not currently being considered in the fate and transport of CO2 in the subsurface. (C) 2014 The Authors.

DE Carbon Sequestration; Leakage; Exsolution; Multiphase Flow; FEHM
AB In this work we conducted 1-D and 2-D simulations of CO2 flow and transport aimed at improving our fundamental understanding of processes associated with potential CO2 leakage into shallow aquifers resulting from carbon sequestration operations. In the 1-D simulations we optimized capillary pressure parameters and conducted sensitivity analysis to investigate the size of CO2 gas accumulation zones as the permeability in heterogeneous layers decreased. Our results indicate that accumulation zones do not necessarily increase as permeability decreases, and differences between capillary pressures for each layer play an important role. In the 2-D simulations we investigated the role of horizontal background flow, and its magnitude, on the formation of CO2 gas in the system. We showed that the formation of CO2 gas in the 2-D tank can be predicted with a simple 1-D expression when the horizontal background flow is not dominating the flow field near the leak. In addition, we showed that the location of the heterogeneous layer relative to the leak can have profound effects on the size and shape of the CO2 gas plume. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB Deep subsurface storage and sequestration of CO2 has been identified as a potential mitigation technique for rising atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Sequestered CO2 represents a potential risk to overlying aquifers if the CO2 leaks from the deep storage reservoir. Experimental and modeling work is required to evaluate potential risks to groundwater quality and develop a systematic understanding of how CO2 leakage may cause important changes in aquifer chemistry and mineralogy by promoting dissolution/precipitation, adsorption/desorption, and redox reactions. Sediments from the High Plains aquifer in Kansas, United States, were used in this investigation. This aquifer was selected to be representative of consolidated sand and gravel/sandstone aquifers overlying potential CO2 sequestration repositories within the continental US. In this paper, we present results from batch experiments conducted at room temperature and atmospheric pressure with four High Plains aquifer sediments. Batch experiments simulate sudden, fast, and short-lived releases of the CO2 gas as would occur in the case of well failure during injection. Time-dependent release of major, minor, and trace elements were determined by analyzing the contacting solutions. The strong acid extraction tests confirmed that in addition to the usual elements present in most soils and sediments, the High Plains aquifer sediments had appreciable amounts of As, Cd, Pb, Cu, and occasionally Zn, which potentially may be mobilized from the solid to the aqueous phase during or after exposure to CO2. However, the results from the batch experiments showed that these sediments mobilized only low concentrations of trace elements (potential contaminants), which were detected occasionally in the aqueous phase during these experiments. Importantly, these occurrences were more frequent in the calcite-free sediment. Results from these investigations provide useful information to support site selection, risk assessment, and public education efforts associated with geological CO2 storage and sequestration.

AB Laboratory experiments showed that low viscosity scCO(2) displacement of the brine into Mt Simon Sandstone and Eau Clair formation cores (FutureGen 2.0 Geologic Sequestration site, Jacksonville, Illinois, USA) was slow by advection, as scCO(2) travels predominantly in larger pores, leaving significant brine in smaller pores. As the scCO(2) displaces the brine in larger pores and carbonate partitions into the brine, the resulting acidification (pH 3 to 4) causes short-term mineral dissolution, ion desorption, and iron oxide particulate movement. Major aqueous biogeochemical changes observed over 1.2 years from core/brine/scCO(2) interactions includes: a) significant increase in Mg2+, K+, and SO42- concentrations (10s to 100s of mmol/L), b) dissolution of the hematite coating on the quartz grains, c) significant precipitation of NaCl and KCl, and d) some anaerobic microbial growth. Electron microprobe analysis showed the formation of some NaCl and KCl, but precipitates were too small a volume to significantly change permeability. Anaerobic microbial growth correlated with scCO(2) (23.5x in 1300h), was also too small to influence permeability. Iron oxide particulate movement was observed as a result of scCO(2) injection (acidification), but results could not conclusively correlate with formation permeability change. The electrical resistivity change of the rock core from 100% brine to 100% scCO(2) was in the expected range (3x to 5x), with most of the change observed between 70% to 100% scCO(2). Field scale conditions simulated using these laboratory-measured electrical resistivity changes indicated insufficient resolution was likely at the field site using surface electrodes due to the depth of injection (1200 m). Overall, injection of scCO(2) into the brine-filled Mt Simon sandstone cores resulted in small geochemical and microbial changes over the short-term (<1.5 years) with some iron oxide particulate movement.

AB The impact of temperature variations of injected CO2 on the mechanical integrity of a reservoir is a problem rarely addressed in the design of a CO2 storage site. The geomechanical simulation of the FutureGen 2.0 storage site presented here takes into account the complete modeling of heat exchange between the environment and CO2 during its transport in the pipeline and injection well before reaching the reservoir, as well as its interaction with the reservoir host rock. An ad-hoc program was developed to model CO2 transport from the power plant to the reservoir and an approach coupling PNNL STOMP-CO2 multiphase flow simulator and ABAQUS (R) has been developed for the reservoir model which is fully three-dimensional with four horizontal wells and variable layer thickness. The Mohr-Coulomb fracture criterion has been employed, where hydraulic fracture was predicted to occur at an integration point if the fluid pressure at the point exceeded the least compressive principal stress. Evaluation of the results shows that the fracture criterion has not been verified at any node and time step for the CO2 temperature range predicted at the top of the injection zone.

AB We summarize recent modeling studies of injection-induced fault reactivation, seismicity, and its potential impact on surface structures and nuisance to the local human population. We used coupled multiphase fluid flow and geomechanical numerical modeling, dynamic wave propagation modeling, seismology theories, and empirical vibration criteria from mining and construction industries. We first simulated injection-induced fault reactivation, including dynamic fault slip, seismic source, wave propagation, and ground vibrations. From co-seismic average shear displacement and rupture area, we determined the moment magnitude to about M-w = 3 for an injection-induced fault reactivation at a depth of about 1000 m. We then analyzed the ground vibration results in terms of peak ground acceleration (PGA), peak ground velocity (PGV), and frequency content, with comparison to the U.S. Bureau of Mines' vibration criteria for cosmetic damage to buildings, as well as human-perception vibration limits. For the considered synthetic M-w = 3 event, our analysis showed that the short duration, high frequency ground motion may not cause any significant damage to surface structures, and would not cause, in this particular case, upward CO2 leakage, but would certainly be felt by the local population.

AB The National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP) is a research organization focused on developing methods and tools for long-term quantitative risk assessment for carbon storage. NRAP's approach is to divide the carbon storage system into components-reservoir, wells, seals, groundwater, atmosphere-and to develop reduced order models for each of these components. These rapid performance models are trained and/or validated against full physics reservoir models (e.g., TOUGH2, GEM) so that they reproduce similar results but in a fraction of the time of the reservoir model. The different component models can then be combined in an integrated assessment model that can simulate the full system in a matter of seconds or minutes rather than the days, weeks, or longer that a full physics simulation of the entire system would take. The integrated model can then be run in a Monte Carlo mode to assess the probability of failure of a carbon storage system.
In NRAP, part of the focus is on long-term leakage risk, and the rapid performance reservoir models are designed to generate pressures and saturations within the reservoir, and particularly at the reservoir-seal interface, both during injection and for up to 1,000 years post injection. These pressures and saturations can then be used as inputs to wellbore or seal leakage models to predict rates and volumes of leakage of CO2 and/or in situ fluids.
In the past few years, NRAP researchers have developed and applied a number of different reduced order models to saline-, gas-, and oil-bearing storage fields. These models vary significantly in several respects. They range from lookup tables or response surfaces to models such as polynomial chaos expansion to models that rely on data mining and artificial intelligence techniques. Each of these types of rapid performance models has different strengths and weaknesses, depending on the method used, the reservoir type, and the goals.
In all cases, the rapid performance models required a geologic model and at least some traditional reservoir simulation runs for training or validation purposes. Also, in all techniques developed, an initial analysis is performed to reduce the number of input parameters and scenarios needed for the final simulations. The number of reservoir simulation runs needed can vary significantly based on the reduced order model used. The time and sophistication that it takes to develop a reduced order model is another major factor that varies among the different types of models. Some models are easily able to handle a significant number of varying spatial inputs, while others are limited in the number of input parameters available. Additionally, while all of the rapid performance models will run much faster than a reservoir model, there run times can vary from fractions of a second to tens of seconds or longer, depending on the situation being modeled.
This paper will describe the different types of reduced order reservoir models used within NRAP. It will also provide a critical assessment of these rapid performance models, discuss under what circumstances different rapid performance models would be most effective, and evaluate their utility in the context of quantitative risk assessment.

AB During CO2 injection and storage in deep reservoirs, the injected CO2 enters into an initially brine saturated porous medium, and after the injection stops, natural groundwater flow eventually displaces the injected mobile-phase CO2, leaving behind residual non-wetting fluid. Accurate modeling of two-phase flow processes are needed for predicting fate and transport of injected CO2, evaluating environmental risks and designing more effective storage schemes. The entrapped non-wetting fluid saturation is typically a function of the spatially varying maximum saturation at the end of injection. At the pore-scale, distribution of void sizes and connectivity of void space play a major role for the macroscopic hysteresis behavior and capillary entrapment of wetting and non-wetting fluids. This paper presents development of an approach based on the connectivity of void space for modeling hysteretic capillary pressure-saturation-relative permeability relationships. The new approach uses void-size distribution and a measure of void space connectivity to compute the hysteretic constitutive functions and to predict entrapped fluid phase saturations. Two functions, the drainage connectivity function and the wetting connectivity function, are introduced to characterize connectivity of fluids in void space during drainage and wetting processes. These functions can be estimated through pore-scale simulations in computer-generated porous media or from traditional experimental measurements of primary drainage and main wetting curves. The hysteresis model for saturation-capillary pressure is tested successfully by comparing the model-predicted residual saturation and scanning curves with actual data sets obtained from column experiments found in the literature. A numerical two-phase model simulator with the new hysteresis functions is tested against laboratory experiments conducted in a quasi-two-dimensional flow cell (91.4cmx5.6cmx61cm), packed with homogeneous and heterogeneous sands. Initial results show that the model can predict spatial and temporal distribution of injected fluid during the experiments reasonably well. However, further analyses are needed for comprehensively testing the ability of the model to predict transient two-phase flow processes and capillary entrapment in geological reservoirs during geological carbon sequestration.

AB Understanding the impacts caused by injection of large volumes of CO2 in the deep subsurface necessitates a comprehensive monitoring strategy. While surface-based and other remote geophysical methods can provide information on the general morphology of a CO2 plume, verification of the geochemical conditions and validation of the remote sensing data requires measurements from boreholes that penetrate the storage formation. Unfortunately, the high cost of drilling deep wellbores and deploying instrumentation systems constrains the number of dedicated monitoring borings as well as limits the technologies that can be incorporated in a borehole completion. The objective of the Modular Borehole Monitoring (MBM) Program was to develop a robust suite of well-based tools optimized for subsurface monitoring of CO2 that could meet the needs of a comprehensive well-based monitoring program. It should have enough flexibility to be easily reconfigured for various reservoir geometries and geologies. The MBM Program sought to provide storage operators with a turn-key fully engineered design that incorporated key technologies, function over the decades long time-span necessary for post-closure reservoir monitoring, and meet industry acceptable risk profiles for deep-well installations.
While still within the conceptual design phase of the MBM program, the SECARB Anthropogenic Test in Citronelle, Alabama, USA was identified as a deployment site for our engineered monitoring systems. The initial step in designing the Citronelle MBM system was to down-select from the various monitoring tools available to include technologies that we considered essential to any program. Monitoring methods selected included U-tube geochemical sampling, discrete quartz pressure and temperature gauges, an integrated fibre-optic bundle consisting of distributed temperature and heat-pulse sensing, and a sparse string of conventional 3C-geophones. While not originally planned within the initial MBM work scope, the fibre-optic cable was able to also be used for the emergent technology of distributed acoustic sensing. The MBM monitoring string was installed in March, 2012. To date, the Citronelle MBM instruments continue to operate reliably. Results and lessons learned from the Citronelle MBM deployment are addressed along with examples of data being collected. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This paper describes an approach to identify monitoring designs that optimize detection of CO2 leakage from a carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) reservoir and compares the results generated under two alternative objective functions. The first objective function minimizes the expected time to first detection of CO2 leakage, the second more conservative objective function minimizes the maximum time to leakage detection across the set of realizations. The approach applies a simulated annealing algorithm that searches the solution space by iteratively mutating the incumbent monitoring design. The approach takes into account uncertainty by evaluating the performance of potential monitoring designs across a set of simulated leakage realizations. The approach relies on a flexible two-tiered signature to infer that CO2 leakage has occurred. This research is part of the National Risk Assessment Partnership, a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) project tasked with conducting risk and uncertainty analysis in the areas of reservoir performance, natural leakage pathways, wellbore integrity, groundwater protection, monitoring, and systems level modeling.

AB A 3D, multi-phase, multi-component numerical model of injection into a storage reservoir with an abandoned wellbore is developed. A shallow aquifer is modeled above the storage reservoir separated by a caprock layer. An intermediate permeable layer assumed to be a thief zone is modeled. The abandoned wellbore penetrates the entire model from the surface, through shallow aquifer and thief zone to the bottom of the primary storage reservoir. The amount of CO2 captured within the thief zone and released to the shallow aquifer and atmosphere is assessed. A Latin Hypercube sample evaluates the effects of variations in CO2 injection rate, depth of the reservoir, relative depth of the thief zone, and permeability of the wellbore, thief zone, and shallow aquifer. In addition, full factorial design parameter studies evaluate the effect of differing wellbore permeabilities above and below the thief zone. Analyses of the Latin Hypercube sample and parameter studies provide indications of the necessary conditions for secondary capture in thief zones and potential for leakage to the shallow aquifer and atmosphere.

AB The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP) Project is developing reduced-order models to evaluate potential impacts on underground sources of drinking water (USDWs) if CO2 or brine leaks from deep CO2 storage reservoirs. Threshold values, below which there would be no predicted impacts, were determined for portions of two aquifer systems. These threshold values were calculated using an interwell approach for determining background groundwater concentrations that is an adaptation of methods described in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Unified Guidance for Statistical Analysis of Groundwater Monitoring Data at RCRA Facilities [1].

AB The Northern Pinnacle Reef Trend presents a regionally significant potential carbon dioxide utilization and storage resource. Two static earth models of a pinnacle reef were developed to evaluate the effect of increasing geologic detail on the reservoir model accuracy. The relatively simple lithostratigraphic model defines the geology on the basis of lithostratigraphy. An alternative conceptualization is based on sequence-stratigraphic constrained lithofacies and requires greater effort and geologic insight. The sequence-stratigraphic approach allows a closer approximation to porosity and permeability distributions observed in cored reefs and this approach will allow more realistic flow unit definition in these complex reefs.

AB The Class VI permit application for geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) requires delineation of an area of review (AoR), defined as the region surrounding the (GCS) project where underground sources of drinking water (USDWs) may be endangered. The methods for estimating AoR under the Class VI regulation were developed assuming that GCS reservoirs would be in hydrostatic equilibrium with overlying aquifers. Here we develop and apply an approach to estimating AoR for sites with pre-injection relative overpressure for which standard AoR estimation methods produces an infinite AoR. The approach we take is to compare brine leakage through a hypothetical open flow path in the base-case scenario (no-injection) to the incrementally larger leakage that would occur in the CO2-injection case. To estimate AoR by this method, we used semi-analytical solutions to single-phase flow equations to model reservoir pressurization and flow up (single) leaky wells located at progressively greater distances from the injection well. We found that the incrementally larger flow rates for hypothetical leaky wells located 6 km and 4 km from the injection well are similar to 20% and 30% greater, respectively, than hypothetical baseline leakage rates. If total brine leakage is considered, the results depend strongly on how the incremental increase in total leakage is calculated, varying from a few percent to up to 40% greater (at most at early time) than base-case total leakage.

ID STORAGE
AB Numerical simulations have been used for estimating CO2 injectivity, CO2 plume extent, pressure distribution, and Area of Review (AoR), and for the design of CO2 injection operations and monitoring network for the FutureGen project. The simulation results are affected by uncertainties associated with numerous input parameters, the conceptual model, initial and boundary conditions, and factors related to injection operations. Furthermore, the uncertainties in the simulation results also vary in space and time. The key need is to identify those uncertainties that critically impact the simulation results and quantify their impacts. We introduce an approach to determine the local sensitivity coefficient (LSC), defined as the response of the output in percent, to rank the importance of model inputs on outputs. The uncertainty of an input with higher sensitivity has larger impacts on the output. The LSC is scalable by the error of an input parameter. The composite sensitivity of an output to a subset of inputs can be calculated by summing the individual LSC values.
We propose a local sensitivity coefficient method and applied it to the FutureGen 2.0 Site in Morgan County, Illinois, USA, to investigate the sensitivity of input parameters and initial conditions. The conceptual model for the site consists of 31 layers, each of which has a unique set of input parameters. The sensitivity of 11 parameters for each layer and 7 inputs as initial conditions is then investigated. For CO2 injectivity and plume size, about half of the uncertainty is due to only 4 or 5 of the 348 inputs and 3/4 of the uncertainty is due to about 15 of the inputs. The initial conditions and the properties of the injection layer and its neighbour layers contribute to most of the sensitivity. Overall, the simulation outputs are very sensitive to only a small fraction of the inputs. However, the parameters that are important for controlling CO2 injectivity are not the same as those controlling the plume size. The three most sensitive inputs for injectivity were the horizontal permeability of Mt Simon 11 (the injection layer), the initial fracture-pressure gradient, and the residual aqueous saturation of Mt Simon 11, while those for the plume area were the initial salt concentration, the initial pressure, and the initial fracture-pressure gradient. The advantages of requiring only a single set of simulation results, scalability to the proper parameter errors, and easy calculation of the composite sensitivities make this approach very cost-effective for estimating AoR uncertainty and guiding cost-effective site characterization, injection well design, and monitoring network design for CO2 storage projects.

AB Carbon stable isotopes can be used in characterization and monitoring of CO2 sequestration sites to track the migration of the CO2 plume and identify leakage sources, and to evaluate the chemical reactions that take place in the CO2-water-rock system. However, there are few tools available to incorporate stable isotope information into flow and transport codes used Ler CO2 sequestration problems. We present a numerical tool for modeling the transport of stable carbon isotopes in multiphase reactive systems relevant to geologic carbon sequestration. The code is an extension of the reactive transport code TOUGHREACT. The transport module of TOUGHREACT was modified to include separate isotopic species of CO, gas and dissolved inorganic carbon (CO2, CO32-, HCO3-,...). Any process of transport or reaction influencing a given carbon species also influences its isotopic ratio. Isotopic fractionation is thus fully integrated within the dynamic system. The chemical module and database have been expanded to include isotopic exchange and fractionation between the carbon species in both gas and aqueous phases. The performance of the code is verified by modeling ideal systems and comparing with theoretical results. Efforts are also made to in field data from the Pembina CO2 injection project in Canada. We show that the exchange of carbon isotopes between dissolved and gaseous carbon species combined with fluid flow and transport, produce isotopic effects that are significantly different from simple two-component mixing. These effects are important for understanding the isotopic variations observed in field demonstrations. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB In this paper we report the result of research associated with the testing of a procedures necessary for utilizing natural occurring trace elements, specifically the Rare Earth Elements (REE) as geochemical tracers in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) applications. Trace elements, particularly REE may be well suited to serve as in situ tracers for monitoring geochemical conditions and the migration of CO2-charged waters within CCS storage systems. We have been conducting studies to determine the efficacy of using REE as a tracer and characterization tool in the laboratory, at a CCS analogue site in Soda Springs, Idaho, and at a proposed CCS reservoir at the Rock Springs Uplift, Wyoming. Results from field and laboratory studies have been encouraging and show that REE may be an effective tracer in CCS systems and overlying aquifers. In recent years, a series of studies using REE as a natural groundwater tracer have been conducted successfully at various locations around the globe. Additionally, REE and other trace elements have been successfully used as in situ tracers to describe the evolution of deep sedimentary Basins. Our goal has been to establish naturally occurring REE as a useful monitoring measuring and verification (MMV) tool in CCS research because formation brine chemistry will be particularly sensitive to changes in local equilibrium caused by the addition of large volumes of CO2. Because brine within CCS target formations will have been in chemical equilibrium with the host rocks for millions of years, the addition of large volumes of CO2 will cause reactions in the formation that will drive changes to the brine chemistry due to the pH change caused by the formation of carbonic acid. This CO2 driven change in formation fluid chemistry will have a major impact on water rock reaction equilibrium in the formation, which will impart a change in the REE fingerprint of the brine that can measured and be used to monitor in situ reservoir conditions. Our research has shown that the REE signature imparted to the formation fluid by the introduction of CO2 to the formation, can be measured and tracked as part of an MMV program. Additionally, this REE fingerprint may serve as an ideal tracer for fluid migration, both within the CCS target formation, and should formation fluids migrate into overlying aquifers. However application of REE and other trace elements to CCS system is complicated by the high salt content of the brines contained within the target formations. In the United States by regulation, in order for a geologic reservoir to be considered suitable for carbon storage, it must contain formation brine with total dissolved solids (TDS) > 10,000 ppm, and in most cases formation brines have TDS well in excess of that threshold. The high salinity of these brines creates analytical problems for elemental analysis, including element interference with trace metals in Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectroscopy (ICP-MS) (i.e. element mass overlap due to oxide or plasma phenomenon). Additionally, instruments like the ICP-MS that are sensitive enough to measure trace elements down to the parts per trillion level are quickly oversaturated when water TDS exceeds much more than 1,000 ppm. Normally this problem is dealt with through dilution of the sample, bringing the water chemistry into the instruments working range.
However, dilution is not an option when analyzing these formation brines for trace metals, because trace elements, specifically the REE, which occur in aqueous solutions at the parts per trillion levels. Any dilution of the sample would make REE detection impossible. Therefore, the ability to use trace metals as in situ natural tracers in high TDS brines environments requires the development of methods for pre-concentrating trace elements, while reducing the salinity and associated elemental interference such that the brines can be routinely analyzed by standard ICP-MS methods. As part of the Big Sky Carbon Sequestration Project the INL-CAES has developed a rapid, easy to use process that pre-concentrates trace metals, including REE, up to 100x while eliminating interfering ions (e.g. Ba, Cl). The process is straightforward, inexpensive, and requires little infrastructure, using only a single chromatography column with inexpensive, reusable, commercially available resins and wash chemicals. The procedure has been tested with synthetic brines (215,000 ppm or less TDS) and field water samples (up to 5,000 ppm TDS). Testing has produced data of high quality with REE capture efficiency exceeding 95%, while reducing interfering elements by > 99%. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The FutureGen 2.0 Prolect will design and build a first-of-its-kind, near-zero emissions coal-fueled power plant with carbon capture and storage (CCS). To assess storage site performance and meet the regulatory requirements of the Class VI Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program for CO, Geologic Sequestration, the FutureGen 2.0 project will implement a suite of monitoring technologies designed to 1) evaluate CO2 mass balance and 2) detect any unforeseen loss in CO, containment. The monitoring program will include direct monitoring of the injection stream and reservoir, and early-leak-detection monitoring directly above the primary confining zone. It will also implement an adaptive monitoring strategy whereby monitoring results are continually evaluated and the monitoring network is modified as required, including the option to drill additional wells in out-years. Wells will be monitored for changes in CO2 concentration and formation pressure, and other geochemical/isotopic signatures that provide indication of CO2 or brine leakage. Indirect geophysical monitoring technologies that were selected for implementation include passive seismic, integrated surface deformation, time-lapse gravity, and pulsed neutron capture logging. Near-surface monitoring approaches that have been initiated include surficial aquifer and surfacewater monitoring; soil-gas monitoring; atmospheric monitoring; and hyperspectral data acquisition for assessment of vegetation conditions. Initially, only the collection of baseline data sets is planned; the need for additional nearsurface monitoring will be continually evaluated throughout the design and operational phases of the project, and selected approaches may be reinstituted if conditions warrant. Given the current conceptual understanding of the subsurface environment, early and appreciable impacts to near-surface environments are not expected. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The FutureGen 2.0 Project will design and build a first-of-its-kind, near-zero emissions coal-fueled power plant with carbon capture and storage (CCS). To assess storage site performance and meet the regulatory requirements of the Class VI Underground Injection Control (UIC) Program for CO2 Geologic Sequestration, the FutureGen 2.0 project will implement a suite of monitoring technologies designed to evaluate CO2 mass balance and detect any unforeseen loss in CO2 containment. The monitoring program will include direct monitoring of the reservoir, and early-leak-detection monitoring directly above the primary confining zone. This preliminary modeling study described here focuses on hypothetical leakage scenarios into the first permeable unit above the primary confining zone (Ironton Sandstone) and is used to support assessment of early-leak detection capabilities. Future updates of the model will be used to assess potential impacts on the lowermost underground source of drinking water (Saint Peter Sandstone) for a range of theoretical leakage scenarios. This preliminary modeling evaluation considers both pressure response and geochemical signals in the overlying Ironton Sandstone. This model is independent of the FutureGen 2.0 reservoir model in that it does not simulate caprock discontinuities, faults, or failure scenarios. Instead this modeling effort is based on theoretical, volumetric-rate based leakage scenarios. The scenarios include leakage of 1% of the total injected CO2 mass, but spread out over different time periods (20, 100, and 500 years) with each case yielding a different mass flux (i.e., smaller mass fluxes for longer duration leakage cases]. A brine leakage scenario using a volumetric leakage similar to the 20 year 1% CO2 case was also considered. A framework for the comparison of the various cases was developed based on the exceedance of selected pressure and geochemical thresholds at different distances from the point of leakage and at different vertical positions within the Ironton Sandstone. These preliminary results, and results from an updated models that incorporate additional site-specific characterization data, support development/refinement of the monitoring system design.

AB Shallow aquifer monitoring is likely to be a required aspect to any geologic CO2 sequestration operation. Collecting groundwater samples and analyzing for geochemical parameters such as pH, alkalinity, total dissolved carbon, and trace metals has been suggested by a number of authors as a possible strategy to detect CO2 leakage. The effectiveness of this approach, however, will depend on the hydrodynamics of the leak-induced CO2 plume and the spatial distribution of the monitoring wells relative to the origin of the leak. To our knowledge, the expected effectiveness of groundwater sampling to detect CO2 leakage has not yet been quantitatively assessed. In this study we query hundreds of simulations developed for the National Risk Assessment Project (US DOE) to estimate risks to drinking water resources associated with CO(2)leaks. The ensemble of simulations represent transient, 3-D multi-phase reactive transport of CO2 and brine leaked from a sequestration reservoir, via a leaky wellbore, into an unconfined aquifer. Key characteristics of the aquifer, including thickness, mean permeability, background hydraulic gradient, and geostatistical measures of aquifer heterogeneity, were all considered uncertain parameters. Complex temporally-varying CO2 and brine leak rate scenarios were simulated using a heuristic scheme with ten uncertain parameters. The simulations collectively predict the spatial and temporal evolution of CO2 and brine plumes over 200 years in a shallow aquifer under a wide range of leakage scenarios and aquifer characteristics.
Using spatial data from an existing network of shallow drinking water wells in the Edwards Aquifer, TX, as one illustrative example, we calculated the likelihood of leakage detection by groundwater sampling. In this monitoring example, there are 128 wells available for sampling, with a density of about 2.6 wells per square kilometer. If the location of the leak is unknown a priori, a reasonable assumption in many cases, we found that the leak would be detected in at least one of the monitoring wells in less than 10% of the scenarios considered. This is because plume sizes are relatively small, and so the probability of detection decreases rapidly with distance from the leakage point. For example, 400m away from the leakage point there is less than 20% chance of detection.
We then compared the effectiveness of groundwater quality sampling to shallow aquifer and/or reservoir pressure monitoring. For the Edwards Aquifer example, pressure monitoring in the same monitoring well network was found to be even less effective that groundwater quality monitoring. This is presumably due to the unconfined conditions and relatively high permeability, so pressure perturbations quickly dissipate. Although specific results may differ from site to site, this type of analysis should be useful to site operators and regulators when selecting leak detection strategies. Given the spatial characteristics of a proposed monitoring well network, probabilities of leakage detection can be rapidly calculated using this methodology.
Although conditions such as these may not be favorable for leakage detection in shallow aquifers, leakage detection could be much more successful in the injection reservoir. We demonstrate proof-of-concept for this hypothesis, presenting a simulation where there is measurable pressure change at the injection well due to overpressurization, fault rupture, and consequent leakage up the fault into intermediate and shallow aquifers. The size of the detectible pressure change footprint is much larger in the reservoir than in either of the overlying aquifers. Further exploration of the range of conditions for which this technique would be successful is the topic of current study. (C) 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB A time-lapse Offset Vertical Seismic Profile (OVSP) data set was acquired as part of a subsurface monitoring program for geologic sequestration of CO2. The storage site at Cranfield, near Natchez, Mississippi, is part of a detailed area study (DAS) site for geologic carbon sequestration operated by the U.S. Dept. of Energy's Southeast Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnership (SECARB). The DAS site includes three boreholes, an injection well and two monitoring wells. The project team selected the DAS site to examine CO2 sequestration multiphase fluid flow and pressure at the interwell scale in a brine reservoir. The time-lapse (TL) OVSP was part of an integrated monitoring program that included well logs, crosswell seismic, electrical resistance tomography and 4D surface seismic. The goals of the OVSP were to detect the CO2 induced change in seismic response, give information about the spatial distribution of CO2 near the injection well and to help tie the high-resolution borehole monitoring to the 4D surface data.
The VSP data were acquired in well CFU 31-F1, which is the similar to 3200 m deep CO2 injection well at the DAS site. A preinjection survey was recorded in late 2009 with injection beginning in December 2009, and a post injection survey was conducted in Nov 2010 following injection of about 250 kT of CO2. The sensor array for both surveys was a 50-level, 3-component, Sercel Maxi Wave system with 15 m (49 ft) spacing between levels. The source for both surveys was an accelerated weight drop, with different source trucks used for the two surveys.
Consistent time-lapse processing was applied to both data sets. Time-lapse processing generated difference corridor stacks to investigate CO2 induced reflection amplitude changes from each source point. Corridor stacks were used for amplitude analysis to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) for each shot point. Spatial variation in reflectivity (used to 'map' the plume) was similar in magnitude to the corridor stacks but, due to relatively lower S/N, the results were less consistent and more sensitive to processing and therefore are not presented. We examined the overall time-lapse repeatability of the OVSP data using three methods, the NRMS and Predictability (Pred) measures of Kragh and Christie (2002) and the signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR) method of Cantillo (2011). Because time-lapse noise was comparable to the observed change, multiple methods were used to analyze data reliability.
The reflections from the top and base reservoir were identified on the corridor stacks by correlation with a synthetic response generated from the well logs. A consistent change in the corridor stack amplitudes from pre- to post-CO2 injection was found for both the top and base reservoir reflections on all ten shot locations analyzed. In addition to the well-log synthetic response, a finite-difference elastic wave propagation model was built based on rock/fluid properties obtained from well logs, with CO2 induced changes guided by time-lapse crosswell seismic tomography (Ajo-Franklin, et al., 2013) acquired at the DAS site. Time-lapse seismic tomography indicated that two reservoir zones were affected by the flood. The modeling established that interpretation of the VSP trough and peak event amplitudes as reflectivity from the top and bottom of reservoir is appropriate even with possible tuning effects. Importantly, this top/base change gives confidence in an interpretation that these changes arise from within the reservoir, not from bounding lithology. The modeled time-lapse change and the observed field data change from 10 shotpoints are in agreement for both magnitude and polarity of amplitude change for top and base of reservoir. Therefore, we conclude the stored CO2 has been successfully detected and, furthermore, the observed seismic reflection change can be applied to Cranfield's 4D surface seismic for spatially delineating the CO2/brine interface.

AB Induced seismicity is inherently associated with underground fluid injections, including during geologic carbon sequestration. If fluids are injected in proximity to a pre-existing fault or fracture system, the resulting elevated pressures can trigger dynamic earthquake slip, which could both damage surface structures and create new migration pathways. The goal of this research is to develop a fundamentally better approach to geological site characterization and early hazard detection. We combine innovative techniques for analyzing microseismic data with a physics-based inversion model to forecast microseismic cloud evolution. The key challenge is that faults at risk of slipping are often too small to detect during the site characterization phase. Our objective is to devise fast-running methodologies that will allow field operators to respond quickly to changing subsurface conditions. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB A comprehensive monitoring program will be needed in order to assess the effectiveness of carbon sequestration at the FumreGen 2.0 carbon capture and storage (CCS) field-site, Geophysical monitoring methods are sensitive to subsurface changes that result from injection of CO2 and will be used for: (1) tracking the spatial extent of the free phase CO2 plume, (2) monitoring advancement of the pressure front, (3) identifying or mapping areas where induced seismicity occurs, and (4) identifying and mapping regions of increased risk for brine or CO2 leakage from the reservoir. Site-specific suitability and cost effectiveness were evaluated for a number of geophysical monitoring methods including: passive seismic monitoring, reflection seismic imaging, integrated surface deformation, time-lapse gravity, pulsed neutron capture logging, cross-borehole seismic, electrical resistivity tomography, magnetotellurics and controlled source electromagnetics. The results of this evaluation indicate that CO2 on monitoring using reflection seismic methods would likely be difficult at the Future Gen 2.0 site. Electrical methods also exhibited low: sensitivity to the expected CO, saturation changes and would be affected by metallic infrastructure at the field site. Passive seismic, integrated surface deformation, time-lapse gravity, and pulsed neutron capture monitoring were selected for implementation as part of the EutureGen 2.0 storage site monitoring program.

AB The Aquistore Project, located near Estevan, Saskatchewan, is one of the first integrated commercial-scale CO2 storage projects in the world that is designed to demonstrate CO2 storage in a deep saline aquifer. Starting in 2014, CO2 captured from the nearby Boundary Dam coal-fired power plant will be transported via pipeline to the storage site and to nearby oil fields for enhanced oil recovery. At the Aquistore site, the CO2 will be injected into a brine-filled sandstone formation at 3200 m depth using the deepest well in Saskatchewan. The suitability of the geological formations that will host the injected CO2 has been predetermined through 3D characterization using high-resolution 3D seismic images and deep well information. These data show that 1) there are no significant faults in the immediate area of the storage site, 2) the regional sealing formation is continuous in the area, and 3) the reservoir is not adversely affected by knolls on the surface of the underlying Precambrian basement. Furthermore, the Aquistore site is located within an intracratonic region characterized by extremely low levels of seismicity. This is in spite of oil-field related water injection in the nearby Weyburn-Midale field where a total of 656 million m(3) of water have been injected since the 1960's with no demonstrable related induced seismicity.
A key element of the Aquistore research program is the further development of methods to monitor the security and subsurface distribution of the injected CO2. Toward this end, a permanent areal seismic monitoring array was deployed in 2012, comprising 630 vertical-component geophones installed at 20 m depth on a 2.5x2.5 km regular grid. This permanent array is designed to provide improved 3D time-lapse seismic imaging for monitoring subsurface CO2. Prior to the onset of CO2 injection, calibration 3D surveys were acquired in May and November of 2013. Comparison of the data from these surveys relative to the baseline 3D survey data from 2012 shows excellent repeatability (NRMS less than 10%) which will provide enhanced monitoring sensitivity to smaller amounts of CO2. The permanent array also provides continuous passive monitoring for injection-related microseismicity. Passive monitoring has been ongoing since the summer of 2012 in order to establish levels of background seismicity before CO2 injection starts in 2014. Microseismic monitoring was augmented in 2013 by the installation of 3 broadband seismograph stations surrounding the Aquistore site. These surface installations should provide a detection capability of seismic events with magnitudes as low as similar to 0.
Downhole seismic methods are also being utilized for CO2 monitoring at the Aquistore site. Baseline crosswell tomographic images depict details (meters-scale) of the reservoir in the 150-m interval between the observation and injection wells. This level of resolution is designed to track the CO2 migration between the wells during the initial injection period. A baseline 3D vertical seismic profile (VSP) was acquired in the fall of 2013 to provide seismic images with resolution on a scale between that provided by the surface seismic array and the downhole tomography. The 3D VSP was recorded simultaneously using both a conventional array of downhole geophones (60-levels) and an optical fibre system. The latter utilized an optical fiber cable deployed on the outside of the monitor well casing and cemented in place. A direct comparison of these two methodologies will determine the suitability of using the fiber cable for ongoing time-lapse VSP monitoring. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB An important risk at CO2 storage sites is the potential for groundwater quality impacts. As part of a system to assess the potential for these impacts a geochemical scaling function has been developed, based on a detailed reactive transport model of CO2 and brine leakage into an unconfined, oxidizing carbonate aquifer. Stochastic simulations varying a number of geochemical parameters were used to generate a response surface predicting the volume of aquifer that would be impacted with respect to regulated contaminants. The brine was assumed to contain several trace metals and organic contaminants. Aquifer pH and TDS were influenced by CO2 leakage, while trace metal concentrations were most influenced by the brine concentrations rather than adsorption or desorption on calcite. Organic plume sizes were found to be strongly influenced by biodegradation. (C) 2014 The Employers. Published by Elsevier Limited.

AB Pressure increases attendant with CO2 injection into the subsurface drive many of the risk factors associated with commercial-scale CCS projects, impacting project costs and liabilities in a number of ways. The area of elevated pressure defines the area that must be characterized and monitored; pressure drives fluid flow out of the storage reservoir along higher-permeability pathways that might exist through the caprock into overlying aquifers or hydrocarbon reservoirs; and pressure drives geomechanical changes that could potentially impact subsurface infrastructure or the integrity of the storage system itself. Pressure also limits injectivity, which can increase capital costs associated with installing additional wells to meet a given target injection rate. The ability to mitigate pressure increases in storage reservoirs could have significant value to a CCS project, but these benefits are offset by the costs of the pressure mitigation technique itself. Of particular interest for CO2 storage operators is the lifetime cost of implementing brine extraction at a CCS project site, and the relative value of benefits derived from the extraction process. This is expected to vary from site to site and from one implementation scenario to the next. Indeed, quantifying benefits against costs could allow operators to optimize their return on project investment by calculating the most effective scenario for pressure mitigation. This work builds on research recently submitted for publication by the authors examining the costs and benefits of brine extraction across operational scenarios to evaluate the effects of fluid extraction on injection rate to assess the cost effectiveness of several options for reducing the number of injection wells required. Modeling suggests that extracting at 90% of the volumetric equivalent of injection rate resulted in a 1.8% improvement in rate over a non-extraction base case; a four-fold increase in extraction rate results in a 7.6% increase in injection rate over the no-extraction base case. However, the practical impacts on capital costs suggest that this strategy is fiscally ineffective when evaluated solely on this metric, with extraction reducing injection well needs by only one per 56 (1x case) or one per 13 (4x case).

AB Long-term storage of CO2 in underground reservoirs requires a careful assessment to evaluate risk to groundwater sources. The focus of this study is to assess timef.rames required to restore water quality to pre-injection levels based on output from complex reactive transport simulations that exhibit plume retraction within a 200-year simulation period. We examined the relationship between plume volume, cumulative injected CO2 mass, and permeability. The role of mitigation was assessed by projecting falloffs in plume volumes from their maximum peak levels with a Gaussian function to estimate plume recovery times to reach post-injection groundwater compositions. The results show a strong correlation between cumulative injected CO2 mass and maximum plume pH volumes and a positive correlation between CO2 flux, cumulative injected CO2, and plume recovery times, with secondary dependence on permeability. Our analysis suggests that natural recharge has the potential to remediate changes to groundwater chemistry, but it may take several decades. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Recent publications have suggested that large-scale CO2 injection could trigger earthquakes and that even small- to moderate-sized earthquakes may threaten the seal integrity of the injection zone, and potentially damage buildings and other surface structures. In this study, we compared seal thickness to estimated fault displacement due to a single hypothetical seismic event in a selected area of the Texas Gulf Coast comprising an offshore strip of state waters along two Texas counties. To evaluate the slip generated by a single seismic event, we compiled well log information on shale/sand sequences and seismic information on fault geometric characteristics of a section of Lower Miocene age. The section is thousands of feet thick and is overlain and underlain by marine shales (Amph. B and Anahuac, respectively) that are relatively easy to correlate between wells. The Amph. B. shale is the secondary and ultimate seal for all injection intervals in the Lower Miocene. Given its thickness, no realistic seismic event or small series of seismic events will offset it significantly. However, this may not be true of smaller local primary seals. An analysis of geophysical logs of a total of 71 wells yielded a total of 2,871 sand /shale binary intervals. An analysis of the dedicated 3D seismic survey counted 723 fault traces at five roughly horizontal horizons within the Lower Miocene Fault displacement estimated using the product of the fault length times an uncertain multiplier coefficient assumed to follow a triangular distribution with a 10(-3) to 10(-5) range and a mode of 8 x 10(-5). We then compared estimated single-event fault displacements to seal thicknesses by means of a Monte-Carlo analysis. Only 1.8% of thickness/displacement pairs display a displacement greater than 20% of the seal thickness. Only 0.26% of the pairs result in a displacement of half the seal thickness and only 0.05% of thickness/displacement pairs result in a clear seal rupture. The next step was to compare the magnitude of the event generated by such a displacement to documented magnitudes of "large" earthquakes generated by waterflooding and fluid disposal. Based on this analysis, we conclude that seismicity that may arise from CO2 injection appears not to be a serious complication for CO2 storage integrity, at least in the Gulf Coast area.

AB Risk assessment for geologic CO2 storage including quantification of risks is an area of active investigation. The National Risk Assessment Partnership (NRAP) is a US-Department of Energy (US-DOE) effort focused on developing a defensible, science-based methodology and platform for quantifying risk profiles at geologic CO2 sequestration sites. NRAP has been developing a methodology that centers round development of an integrated assessment model (IAM) using system modeling approach to quantify risks and risk profiles. The IAM has been used to calculate risk profiles with a few key potential impacts due to potential CO2 and brine leakage. The simulation results are also used to determine long-term storage security relationships and compare the long-term storage effectiveness to IPCC storage permanence goal. Additionally, we also demonstrate application of IAM for uncertainty quantification in order to determine parameters to which the uncertainty in model results is most sensitive. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB The goal of this study is to quantify the effects of geologic heterogeneity on the dynamic process of CO2 attenuation in shallow aquifers through the use of multi-scale laboratory experimentation and numerical modelling. First, an experiment was conducted in an intermediate scale two-dimensional cell that was packed with water-saturated porous media in a simple heterogeneous configuration. Constant-head boundary conditions were applied to the system, and then CO2-saturated water was injected through it. As the CO2-saturated water migrated through the system, gas phase CO2 evolved within the porous media, as observed by dielectric saturation sensors. The outflow of CO2 gas from the top of the system was monitored by a gas flow meter, and the outflow of water from the side of the tank was monitored via collection into a container that was placed on a computer-interfaced scale. After the multiphase CO2 evolution appeared to have reached steady state, clean water was injected through the cell until all of the CO2 was expelled from the system. In addition to the experiments, numerical models were performed using the Finite Element Heat and Mass transfer (FEHM) code as a first step toward planning larger scale experiments. Results indicate that the presence of geologic heterogeneity, which is ubiquitous in natural environments, can significantly hinder the migration of CO2 in the shallow subsurface.

AB This work describes strategies for assessing and managing induced seismicity risk during each phase of a carbon storage project. We consider both nuisance and damage potential from induced earthquakes, as well as the indirect risk of enhancing fault leakage pathways. A phased approach to seismicity management is proposed, in which operations are continuously adapted based on available information and an on-going estimate of risk. At each project stage, specific recommendations are made for (a) monitoring and characterization, (b) modeling and analysis, and (c) site operations. The resulting methodology can help lower seismic risk while ensuring site operations remain practical and cost-effective. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID SEQUESTRATION
AB A careful assessment of the risk associated with geologic CO2 storage is critical to the deployment of large-scale storage projects. A potential risk is the deterioration of groundwater quality caused by the leakage of CO2 and brine leakage from deep subsurface reservoirs. In probabilistic risk assessment studies, numerical modeling is the primary tool employed to assess risk. However, the application of traditional numerical models to fully evaluate the impact of CO2 leakage on groundwater can be computationally complex, demanding large processing times and resources, and involving large uncertainties. As an alternative, reduced order models (ROMs) can be used as highly efficient surrogates for the complex process-based numerical models.
In this study, we represent the complex hydrogeological and geochemical conditions in a heterogeneous aquifer and subsequent risk by developing and using two separate ROMs. The first ROM is derived from a model that accounts for the heterogeneous flow and transport conditions in the presence of complex leakage functions for CO2 and brine. The second ROM is obtained from models that feature similar, but simplified flow and transport conditions, and allow for a more complex representation of all relevant geochemical reactions. To quantify possible impacts to groundwater aquifers, the basic risk metric is taken as the aquifer volume in which the water quality of the aquifer may be affected by an underlying CO2 storage project. The integration of the two ROMs provides an estimate of the impacted aquifer volume taking into account uncertainties in flow, transport and chemical conditions. These two ROMs can be linked in a comprehensive system level model for quantitative risk assessment of the deep storage reservoir, wellbore leakage, and shallow aquifer impacts to assess the collective risk of CO2 storage projects.

AB International collaboration is one mechanism to speed the development of carbon capture and storage. Support to investigate storage options for a coal-fired plant in the Chongqing Municipality was provided through a program funded by the World Bank. Geologic storage in saline reservoirs appears technically feasible based on the available evidence. The plant is located within a tectonically stable area of the Sichuan Basin, with low seismic activity and adequate capacity. However, multiple injection wells may be required, and the location of a fault near the plant merits additional distance for candidate sites. This study and guidance on future phases was augmented with capacity-building workshops in China and visits by the Chinese delegation to active carbon capture and storage sites outside of China.

AB Reflection seismic data provide the primary technology for imaging subsurface geology between and distal to wellbores; and where rock physics properties are suitable, surface seismic and vertical seismic profiles (VSP's) can provide important CCUS monitoring modalities. In addition, seismic data provide the subsurface framework for locating microseismic events and reducing risk of induced seismicity.
Seismic surveys have traditionally been limited to acquisition and processing of compressional (P) -wave data, but modern technology includes the use of three-component receivers that can additionally record shear (S) wave modes that have been generated at the surface or converted from P-waves in the subsurface. Each collected waveform can potentially produce a separate data volume and new information on the subsurface. This paper reviews the insights gained through application of multicomponent VSP technology at the FutureGen2.0 site where, typical of many proposed CCUS and CCS sites, traditional P-wave surface seismic imaging is considerably impacted by seismic noise.
We conclude that a comparison of shear and P-wave data and interferometric processing allows a better understanding of subsurface geology, and provides input parameters for improved acquisition of surface seismic data at CCUS sites in old, fast rocks or below depleted oil and gas fields. Although results will vary by locality, we suggest that because of the insights provided by an analysis of multicomponent data, multicomponent acquisition and processing should become part of standard best practices for site characterization and evaluation.

AB The United States Department of Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory (DOE-NETL) is developing a volumetric-based methodology for calculating prospective CO2 storage resource of organic-rich shale formations. Similar to natural gas, carbon dioxide (CO2) can be stored in organic-rich shale as free-gas within fractures and pores and as a sorbed component on organic matter and clays. The proposed methodology includes three screening criteria to serve as guidelines for assessing CO2 storage. The absence of thorough, comprehensive geologic and petrophysical data for unconventional shale reservoirs is noted as a significant limitation and source of uncertainty in estimating CO2 storage resource. Future work is aimed towards analyzing geologic data from organic-rich shale in order to refine the methodology and reduce the uncertainty associated with CO2 storage in these complex formations.

AB Various approaches are used to evaluate the capacity of saline aquifers to store CO2, resulting in a wide range of capacity estimates for a given aquifer. The two approaches most used are the volumetric "open aquifer" and "closed aquifer" approaches. We present four full-scale aquifer cases, where CO2 storage capacity is evaluated both volumetrically (with "open" and/or "closed" approaches) and through flow modeling. These examples show that the "open aquifer" CO2 storage capacity estimation can strongly exceed the cumulative CO2 injection from the flow model, whereas the "closed aquifer" estimates are a closer approximation to the flow-model derived capacity.
An analogy to oil recovery mechanisms is presented, where the primary oil recovery mechanism is compared to CO2 aquifer storage without producing formation water; and the secondary oil recovery mechanism (water flooding) is compared to CO2 aquifer storage performed simultaneously with extraction of water for pressure maintenance. This analogy supports the finding that the "closed aquifer" approach produces a better estimate of CO2 storage without water extraction, and highlights the need for any CO2 storage estimate to specify whether it is intended to represent CO2 storage capacity with or without water extraction.

AB Large-scale pressure increases resulting from carbon dioxide (CO2) injection in the subsurface can potentially impact caprock integrity, induce reactivation of critically stressed faults, and drive CO2 or brine through conductive features into shallow groundwater. Pressure management involving the extraction of native fluids from storage formations can be used to minimize pressure increases while maximizing CO2 storage. However, brine extraction requires pumping, transportation, possibly treatment, and disposal of substantial volumes of extracted brackish or saline water, all of which can be technically challenging and expensive. This paper describes a constrained differential evolution (CDE) algorithm for optimal well placement and injection/extraction control with the goal of minimizing brine extraction while achieving predefined pressure contraints. The CDE methodology was tested for a simple optimization problem whose solution can be partially obtained with a gradient-based optimization methodology. The CDE successfully estimated the true global optimum for both extraction well location and extraction rate, needed for the test problem. A more complex example application of the developed strategy was also presented for a hypothetical CO2 storage scenario in a heterogeneous reservoir consisting of a critically stressed fault nearby an injection zone. Through the CDE optimization algorithm coupled to a numerical vertically-averaged reservoir model, we successfully estimated optimal rates and locations for CO2 injection and brine extraction wells while simultaneously satisfying multiple pressure buildup constraints to avoid fault activation and caprock fracturing. The study shows that the CDE methodology is a very promising tool to solve also other optimization problems related to GCS, such as reducing 'Area of Review', monitoring design, reducing risk of leakage and increasing storage capacity and trapping.

AB We present a reservoir management approach for geologic CO2 storage that combines CO2 injection with brine extraction. In our approach, dual-mode wells are initially used to extract formation brine and subsequently used to inject CO2. These wells can also be used to monitor the subsurface during pre-injection brine extraction so that key data is acquired and analyzed prior to CO2 injection. The relationship between pressure drawdown during pre-injection brine extraction and pressure buildup during CO2 injection directly informs reservoir managers about CO2 storage capacity. These data facilitate proactive reservoir management, and thus reduce costs and risks. The brine may be used directly as make-up brine for nearby reservoir operations; it can also be desalinated and/or treated for a variety of beneficial uses. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB Due to the strong interest in geochemical CO2-fluid-rock interaction in the context of geological storage of CO2 a growing number of research groups have used a variety of different experimental ways to identify important geochemical dissolution or precipitation reactions and - if possible - quantify the rates and extent of mineral or rock alteration. In this inter-laboratory comparison the gas-fluid-mineral reactions of three samples of rock-forming minerals have been investigated by 11 experimental labs. The reported results point to robust identification of the major processes in the experiments by most groups. The dissolution rates derived from the changes in composition of the aqueous phase are consistent overall, but the variation could be reduced by using similar corrections for changing parameters in the reaction cells over time. The comparison of experimental setups and procedures as well as of data corrections identified potential improvements for future gas-fluid-rock studies. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB The heterogeneous nature of typical sedimentary formations can play a major role in the propagation of the CO2 plume, eventually dampening the accumulation of mobile phase underneath the caprock. From core flooding experiments, it is also known that contrasts in capillary threshold pressure due to different pore size can affect the flow paths of the invading and displaced fluids and consequently influence the build-up of non-wetting phase (NWP) at interfaces between geological facies. The full characterization of the geologic variability at all relevant scales and the ability to make observations on the spatial and temporal distribution of the migration and trapping of supercritical CO2 is not feasible from a practical perspective. To provide insight into the impact of well-defined heterogeneous systems on the flow dynamics and trapping efficiency of supercritical CO2 under drainage and imbibition conditions, we present an experimental investigation at the meter scale conducted in synthetic sand reservoirs packed in a quasi-two-dimensional flow-cell. Two immiscible displacement experiments have been performed to observe the preferential entrapment of NWP in simple heterogeneous porous media. The experiments consisted of an injection, a fluid redistribution, and a forced imbibition stages conducted in an uncorrelated permeability field and a homogeneous base case scenario. We adopted x-ray attenuation analysis as a non-destructive technique that allows a precise measurement of phase saturations throughout the entire flow domain. By comparing a homogeneous and a heterogeneous scenario we have identified some important effects that can be attributed to capillary barriers, such as dampened plume advancement, higher non-wetting phase saturations, larger contact area between the injected and displaced phases, and a larger range of non-wetting phase saturations.

AB The geomechanical behavior of caprock and wellbore systems determines the robustness of the CO2 storage system to disturbances from stress, pressure and temperature. In this study, we conduct triaxial coreflood and x-ray tomography experiments to directly measure permeability of water and supercritical CO2 in caprock (shale and anhydrite), cement and synthetic wellbores. The observed plastic behavior and large deformation that occurred prior to distinct sample failure demonstrates substantial stress accommodation in these systems. Fracture development resulted in total sample permeability ranging from 10-1000 mD depending on sample properties and the applied stress configuration. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB As part of the United States Department of Energy (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) sponsored project, The Quantification of Wellbore Leakage Risk Using Non-destructive Borehole Logging Techniques, the construction and integrity of a 68 year old well was studied. This study builds upon previous work examining the integrity of existing wells through shale formations. The objective of this study was to measure well integrity through potential caprocks and aid in understanding the potential leakage risk posed by old wells that intersect CO2 injection projects.
The well was originally completed as a production well in the Gulf Coast region in 1945 and then plugged and abandoned in 1969. The well was re-entered and re-completed as an observation well for a CO2 injection project in 2008. It was replugged and abandoned after completing its observation role in 2013. For this study the well was logged using cement bond log and ultrasonic mapping tools, tested and sampled using a dynamic tester, and cored using a sidewall coring tool. The age of this well makes it the oldest well to be studied in this manner and this is the first well to be studied this way in the region.
The results of the study indicate that much of the material behind the casing is unconsolidated cement. Logging results in many places in the well show poor isolation potential and indicate a microannulus. The logs also indicate removal of material during hydraulic testing which was confirmed by laboratory analysis. Of the six cores collected, four consisted of unconsolidated, soft, cement or rock, one consisted of heavily altered cement, and one consisted of slightly altered cement. The results of study are an interesting contrast to earlier field studies because they show an old well that lacked integrity at most of the test and sample points. However, the logging and a core sample in the squeezed zone indicate that there was zonal isolation between the injection and monitoring zones. The logging and mapping data along with the analysis of the "core" material collected provide insight into the potential leakage pathways within the well. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB A model for the time-dependent flow of CO2-saturated fluid through a leaky well is presented. This simple model accounts for laboratory observations of fracture sealing by secondary precipitation due to complex reactive transport coupling. The model uses the principle of flow in series and a logistic function to describe the evolution of the precipitation zone's effective permeability as it advects through the domain. A single well leakage scenario is used as an example and to perform a sensitivity study for a range of conditions.
Results show that the initial fracture conductivity, retardation factors, and empirical parameters that describe permeability decrease are the dominant parameters in the model. These parameters determine time to breakthrough of reservoir fluid and amount of fluid leaked at 50 years. For most cases the breakthrough time and total amount leaked are orders of magnitude less than when compared to the constant permeability case. Even when residence time is small (i.e. when leak length is short and aperture is large) the model shows significantly less fluid leaked into an overlying aquifer. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Assessment of potential CO2 and brine leakage from wellbores is central to any consideration of the viability of geological CO2 sequestration. Depleted oil and gas reservoirs are some of the potential candidates for consideration as sequestration sites. The sequestration sites are expected to cover laterally extensive areas to be of practical interest. Hence there is a high likelihood that such sites will contain many pre-existing abandoned wells. Most existing work on wellbore integrity has focused on field and laboratory studies of chemical reactivity. Very little work has been done on the impacts of mechanical stresses on wellbore performance. This study focuses on the potential enhancement of fluid flow pathways in the near-wellbore environment due to modifications in the geomechanical stress field resulting from the CO2 injection operations. The majority of the operational scenarios for CO2 sequestration lead to significant rise in the formation pore pressure. This is expected to lead to an expansion of the reservoir rock and build-up of shear stresses near wellbores where the existence of cement and casing are expected to constrain the expansion. If the stress buildup is large enough, this can lead to failure with attendant permeability enhancement that can potentially provide leakage pathways to shallower aquifers and the surface.
In this study, we use a numerical model to simulate key features of a wellbore (casing, annulus and cement) embedded in a system that includes the upper aquifer, caprock, and storage aquifer. We present the sensitivity of damage initiation and propagation to various operational and formation parameters. We consider Mohr-Coulomb shear-failure models; tensile failure is also likely to occur but will require higher stress changes and will be preceded by shear failure. The modeling is performed using the numerical simulator FEHM developed at LANL that models coupled THM processes during multi-phase fluid flow and deformation in fractured porous media. FEHM has been developed extensively under projects on conventional/unconventional energy extraction geothermal, oil, and gas), radionuclide and contaminant transport, watershed management, and CO2 sequestration.

AB Thousands of abandoned wellbores may lie within the aerial extent of a CO2 storage operation. These wellbores represent a potential leakage pathway and a leaky wellbore needs to be re-completed or otherwise repaired to restore seal integrity and ensure containment of the stored CO2. Due to the high cost of recompleting a well, a sufficient economic incentive exists if a viable seal repair technology is available. In this paper, we examine the use of epoxy nanocomposites as potential seal repair materials that have excellent bond characteristics with both steel and cement when cured in the subsurface environment. Test results show Novolac epoxy nanocomposites incorporating nanosilica, nanoclay or nanoalumina to have acceptable flowability that enable injection in wellbore cracks and significantly higher bond strength compared with standard microfine cement.

AB Experimental studies were conducted using batch reactors, X-ray microtomograpy (XMT), and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations to determine changes in cement fracture surfaces, fluid flow pathways, and permeability with geochemical and geomechanical processes. Composite Portland cement-basalt caprock core with artificial fractures was prepared and reacted with CO2-saturated groundwater at 50 degrees C and 10 MPa for 3 to 3.5 months under static conditions to understand the geochemical and geomechanical effects on the integrity of wellbores that contain defects. Cement-basalt interface samples were subjected to mechanical stress at 2.7 MPa before the CO2 reaction. XMT provided three-dimensional (3-D) visualization of the opening and interconnection of cement fractures due to mechanical stress. After the CO2 reaction, XMT images revealed that calcium carbonate precipitation occurred extensively within the fractures in the cement matrix, but only partially along fractures located at the cement-basalt interface. The calculated permeability based on CFD simulation was in agreement with the experimentally measured permeability. The experimental results imply that the wellbore cement with fractures is likely to be healed during exposure to CO2-saturated groundwater under static conditions, whereas fractures along the cement-caprock interface are still likely to remain vulnerable to the leakage of CO2. CFD simulations for the flow of different fluids (CO2-saturated brine and supercritical CO2) using a pressure difference of 20 kPa and 200 kPa along similar to 2 cm-long cement fractures showed that a pressure gradient increase resulted in an increase of CO2 fluids flux by a factor of 3-9 because the friction of CO2 fluids on cement fracture surfaces increased with higher flow rate as well. At the same pressure gradient, the simulated flow rate was higher for supercritical CO2 than CO2-saturated brine by a factor of only 2-3, because the viscosity of supercritical CO2 is much lower than that of CO2-saturated brine. The study suggests that in deep geological reservoirs the geochemical and geomechanical processes have coupled effects on the wellbore cement fracture evolution and fluid flow along the fracture surfaces.

AB United States Department of Energy (DOE) and Archer Daniels Midland Company (ADM) has made substantial progress in the development and construction of the largest saline storage project in the U.S. This commercial-scale project is located at the ADM's agricultural processing and biofuels complex in Decatur, Illinois. The Office of Fossil Energy's National Energy Technology Laboratory manages this project. Detailed design, installation of the CO2 compression, dehydration, and transmission system, and installation of related piping, electrical, and instrumentation was completed and commissioning of this system was initiated. The construction of a 100-MW electrical substation, which will supply power to the compressors and other equipment, is in progress. A 2206 m deep monitoring well and a 1083 m geophysical well were drilled. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a draft permit for a Class VI injection well with a capacity to inject 3000 tonnes of CO2 per day. This is expected to be the first geological sequestration project to operate with EPA's Class VI well permit in the U.S. The project is scheduled to begin CO2 injection into the Mount Simon Sandstone, a deep saline reservoir, early 2015. The project team members include Schlumberger Carbon Services, Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS)-University of Illinois, and Richland Community College (RCC). Public education and outreach for CCS is an integral part of this ICCS project and to this end, the project has established the National Sequestration Education Center (NSEC) at RCC in Decatur. NSEC is implementing a new associate degree program, first in the United States, with an emphasis on CCS. This project was recognized by the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum.

AB A major component of the U.S. DOE Carbon Storage Program is Infrastructure, which includes the seven Regional Carbon Sequestration Partnerships (RCSPs). The RCSP Initiative began in 2003 with an assessment of the CO2 storage resource in various geologic formations throughout the seven partnerships, and has subsequently focused on small-and large-scale field projects. RCSP field projects involve site-specific characterization and application of simulation and risk assessment, and monitoring, verification, accounting (MVA) and assessment technologies in different types of storage reservoirs in various geologic depositional environments and different geographic regions. Field testing has validated multiple technologies and tested new tools and approaches, and shown the need for integration of multiple tools for monitoring. Results of the field projects have improved our understanding of CO2 injection, fluid flow and pressure migration, and geomechanical and geochemical impacts of injection, and are providing experience and knowledge of operation at scale which is essential for broad, commercial deployment of storage technologies.

AB At Ketzin, located west of Berlin, the GFZ German Centre for Geosciences is operating Europe's largest CO2 research storage site. This pilot site has been developed since 2004 and is comprised of one combined injection/observation well and four monitoring wells. From June 2008 to August 2013, a total of 67 kilotons of CO2 were safely injected into the sandstone units of the Upper Triassic Stuttgart Formation in a depth between 630 to 650 m. The paper discusses the well designs and lessons learned in drilling engineering and operations. The abandonment phase started in Ketzin with the first plug cementation of the observation well Ktzi 202 shortly after shut-in of CO2 injection. The experience with the first CO2 well killing operation will be reviewed. (c) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Development of the FutureGen geologic storage site in Morgan County Illinois is part of a larger project to design, build, and operate a commercial-scale carbon capture and storage (CCS) system capable of capturing, treating, and storing the CO2 off-gas from an oxy-combustion coal-fueled power plant located in Meredosia, Illinois. The geological storage site is designed to capture approximately 1.1 million metric tons (Mt) of CO2 each year.
To support the selection and design of the site, a comprehensive characterization effort was conducted in order to acquire fundamental subsurface site specific information. These characterization activities included seismic surveys coring, geophysical wireline logging, hydrologic testing and geomechanical testing. The characterization results combined with pertinent research literature were used to build a conceptual model of the site, which in turn informed the development of computer models. Collectively this work supported both the design work and the permitting under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's class VI Underground Injection Control (UIC) permit process which was developed specifically for CO2 injection. The detailed design of the injection wells and associated monitoring network were completed in early 2014 and in August 2014 the site received the first issued set of class VI UIC permits in the Unites States for the planned injection wells.

AB The Carbon Storage Program contains three principal components: Core Research and Development (R&D), Infrastructure, and Program Support (Strategic). Core R&D involves both applied laboratory-and pilot-scale research focused on adapting existing and developing new technologies and systems for geologic storage. Core R&D encompasses three Technology Areas: (1) Geologic Storage Technologies and Simulation and Risk Assessment (GSRA); (2) Monitoring, Verification, Accounting (MVA), and Assessment; and (3) Carbon Use and Reuse. The GSRA Technology Area is subdivided into six Key Technologies (wellbore; mitigation; fluid flow, pressure, and water management; geomechanical impacts; geochemical impacts; and risk assessment). The MVA Technology Area is subdivided into four Key Technologies (atmospheric monitoring; near-surface monitoring; subsurface monitoring; and intelligent monitoring). The Carbon Use and Reuse is subdivided into three Key Technologies (polycarbonate plastics, mineralization/cements, and chemicals). This paper addresses the Core R&D geologic storage effort and how it is meeting the R&D challenges in the GSRA and MVA Technology Areas. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

Enhanced Oil Recovery
AB Efforts to sequester or otherwise manage carbon dioxide emissions on a large scale will require an improved understanding of the geospatial characteristics of anthropogenic CO2 sources. Recent work by the authors using newly collected data from the US Environmental Protection Agency showed that even though there are some regions of the US with access to significant supply of CO2, most regions of the country do not have sources that are concentrated enough or large enough to support large-scale carbon management activities. What's more, the life cycle carbon burdens of different CO2 sources varied considerably with some sources, e. g., extracted wells, having a much larger carbon footprint than those where CO2 is a by-product, e.g., acid gas processing facilities. Here, the effect of source switching was explored in the context of CO2-enhanced oil recovery (CO2-EOR). At present most CO2-EOR operations in the United States rely on CO2 that is extracted from dedicated wells generating nearly pure CO2. By-product CO2, in contrast, is produced from a number of other industries including natural gas processing plants where small mass fractions of CO2 are removed from the gas stream. The emissions implications of these two sources of CO2 are significant in the context of CO2-EOR application because in one case, CO2 emissions are being avoided but in another they are not. Yet the switch from an industrial paradigm in which extracted CO2 is used to one in which by-product CO2 may not be as straightforward as it appears. Here, the SimCCS model is applied to the oil-producing Permian basin in west Texas to understand what the effect of source switching would be on CO2 demand, infrastructure, and overall emissions. The results suggest that at present scales of deployment, the costs associated with switching to by-product CO2 are higher than extracted CO2 because of the need for new infrastructure. Nevertheless, the observed emissions reductions are large in an absolute sense and suggest that this strategy be more seriously considered. A new infrastructure would be needed to connect by-product CO2 sources with CO2-EOR sinks but the cost of this is not so great that with a modest economic incentive, source switching of CO2 could represent a near-term strategy for reducing CO2 emissions and increasing oil production.

AB California is at the forefront of addressing the challenges involved in redesigning its energy infrastructure to meet 2050 GHG reduction goals, but CCUS commercialization lags in California as it does elsewhere. It is unclear why this is the case given the state's forefront position in aggressive climate change policy. The intent of this paper is to examine the factors that may explain why CCUS has not advanced as rapidly as other GHG emissions mitigation technologies in California and identify ways by which CCUS commercialization may be advanced in the context of California's future energy infrastructure.
CCUS has application to reduce GHG emissions from the power, industrial and transportation sectors in the state. Efficiency, use of renewable energy or nuclear generation to replace fossil fuels, use of lower or no-net-carbon feedstocks (such as biomass), and use of CCUS on fossil fuel generation are the main options, but California has fewer options for making the deep cuts in CO2 emissions within the electricity sector to meet 2050 goals. California is already the most efficient of all 50 states as measured by electricity use per capita, and, while further efficiency measures can reduce per capita consumption, increasing population is still driving electricity demand upwards. A 1976 law prevents building any new nuclear plants until a federal high-level nuclear waste repository is approved. Most all in-state electricity generation already comes from natural gas; although California does plan to eliminate electricity imports from out-of-state coal-fired generation. Thus, the two options with greatest potential to reduce in-state power sector CO2 emissions are replacing fossil with renewable generation or employing CCUS on natural gas power plants. Although some scenarios call on California to transition its electricity sector to 100 percent renewables, it is unclear how practical this approach is given the intermittency of renewable generation, mismatches between peak generation times and demand times, and the rate of progress in developing technologies for large-scale power storage.
Vehicles must be electrified or move to biofuels or zero-carbon fuels in order to decarbonize the transportation sector. These options transfer the carbon footprint of transportation to other sectors: the power sector in the case of electric vehicles and the industrial and agricultural sectors in the case of biofuels or zero-carbon fuels. Thus, the underlying presumption to achieve overall carbon reductions is that the electricity used by vehicles does not raise the carbon emissions of the power sector: biofuel feedstock growth, harvest, and processing uses low carbon energy or production of fuels from fossil feedstocks employs CCUS. This results in future transportation sector energy derived solely from renewables, biomass, or fossil fuel point sources utilizing CCUS.
In the industrial sector, the largest contributors to GHG emissions are transportation fuel refineries and cement plants. Emissions from refineries come from on-site power generation and hydrogen plants; while fuel mixes can be changed to reduce the GHG emissions from processing and renewable sources can be used to generate power, total decarbonization requires use of CCUS. Similarly, for cement plants, power generation may use carbon-free feedstocks instead of fossil fuels, but CO2 emissions associated with the manufacture of cement products must be dealt with through CCUS. Of course, another option for these facilities is the purchase of offsets to create a zero-emissions plant. In spite of the conclusion that CCUS is vital to decarbonization of three of the state's key economic sectors, incorporating CCUS technology into California's energy future has significant challenges. A diverse set of questions must be addressed before state planners, policymakers, and regulators will be able to justify pursuing CCUS as a part of the solution to meet 2050 goals:
In what sector applications does CCUS have the most potential to assist the state in reducing its CO2 emissions?
Do policies to facilitate CCUS enable continued use of fossil fuels even where there may be other viable options for energy generation?
Are CCUS technologies, specifically subsurface storage elements, safe and effective over the long term?
How can California agencies and lawmakers assure that CCUS projects are appropriately permitted, regulated, monitored, and verified?
Can the state's industrial and energy infrastructure accommodate the changes necessary to integrate CCUS?
In state planning for future energy infrastructure, should CCUS be included as a component? What is the risk in not doing so?
If CCUS is to be relied on to reduce significant fractions of California's future emissions, at what rate should CCUS projects be coming on line, and what pathways to commercialization can accommodate this rate?
CCUS projects worldwide and analog projects provide some data and experience to answer these questions. Worldwide experience, for example, supports the assertion that CO2 can be stored safely in the subsurface; these projects have tested a number of tools, including monitoring technologies, simulations, well completion methods and well and cap rock integrity testing to give regulators confidence that risks are measureable and verifiable. For California, areas of particular concern are assuring safety of groundwater resources from contamination and seismic hazards. California has plentiful geologic storage resource to accommodate captured emissions, according to studies by WESTCARB and the California Geological Survey.
Infrastructure requirements include capture facilities at CO2 emission sources, pipelines, and injection and monitoring wells at storage sites. It is a policy decision as to whether these costs should be passed on to consumers or taxpayers. California will require substantial investment in pipeline infrastructure in order for CCUS to become widespread. Because a readily available supply of low cost CO2 would benefit California's oil industry, that industry and federal subsidies for oil production may be sources of capital for pipeline development. California's CCUS project developers may be able to repurpose or co-utilize some existing infrastructure at California's numerous oil and natural gas fields if storage is done in conjunction with CO2-EOR or by conversion of depleted reservoirs to storage sites. Storage in saline formations will require new infrastructure and development to assure safe and effective long term storage.
Rates of CCUS technology adoption must be sufficient to create a declining trend in GHG emissions with the right slope to intersect 80 MT or less total emissions by 2050. It is an oversimplification to assume that technology adoptions between now and 2050 will result in a linear reduction of emissions with time, but it serves to give a first-order approximation of the size of the task. With every year of delay in implementation of GHG reduction technologies, the slope becomes steeper. If the 2020 cap on new emissions is maintained after 2020, about 10 Mt per year must still be removed every year to reach the 2050 goal. This is equivalent to removing several of California's largest point sources from the emissions inventory every year. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Risk communication literature suggests that for a number of reasons, the public may perceive a risk to be greater than indicated by its statistical probability. Public concern over risk can lead to significant and costly delays in project permitting and operations. Considering these theories, media coverage of CO2-related well blowouts in 2013 gave rise to the questions: What is the risk of CO2 well blowouts associated with CCUS through CO2 EOR? What is the potential public perception of those risks? What information could be used to respond to public concern? To address these questions, this study aims to: 1) provide a framework for understanding the nature of onshore well blowouts, 2) quantify the incidence of such events for three specific geographic regions of Texas, 3) relate this data to CCUS and findings from other studies, and 4) explore the potential implications for public perception of this risk associated with CCUS projects. While quantifying answers to these questions proved to be challenging, the results from this study suggest that (1) the perceived risk of CO2 well blowouts may exceed the statistical risk and (2) information that could be used to address this gap could be made more readily available to the greater benefit of industry and stakeholders who support the development of CCUS as an option for addressing anthropogenic CO2 emissions. The study also suggests approaches to best conduct such data inquiries. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID CO2 STORAGE; BASIN IMPLICATIONS
AB Extraction of in-situ water is one of the options for minimizing the impact of large-scale CO2 injection in saline aquifers or during enhanced oil recovery (EOR). The amount of water to be produced could be significant depending on in-situ conditions and injection parameters. Evaluating the costs of treatment is complex, as the quality of the water may vary considerably from treatments based on well-known seawater chemistry, including reverse osmosis. We evaluated a brackish-salinity water to be extracted from a future CO2 injection and storage location in eastern China for prototype treatment costs for both cooling water and boiler water final treatment goals. Costs for treatment of the water, excluding costs for organic pretreatment, were within the range of previously analyzed costs for higher-salinity waters (US$ 1.53-6.20) but are likely to be lower when economies of scale are included for a full-scale, higher volume treatment facility. Importance analysis lends insight into process factors that may not contribute the highest unit costs to treatment but on whole are very important to total system costs. We found that the acid rate for pretreatment, zero-liquid discharge disposal, feed water temperature, and water transportation costs, were the most important factors within total system costs for this analysis.

AB Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and storage (CCS) is a key climate mitigation technology that can global CO2 emissions by thousands of megatonnes of CO2 annually. CCS is almost certainly required, along with a wide portfolio of other technologies in an "all of the above" strategy, to achieve the reductions in global CO2 emissions necessary to stabilize atmospheric concentrations of CO2. Despite many high-profile demonstration projects, commercial-scale CCS deployment is still impeded by multiple issues including economic viability, public awareness and acceptance, and regulation and permitting. Developing a large-scale, highly visible and economically feasible CCS network-in addition to existing investment approaches-will be required to overcome these barriers to widespread CCS adoption. We propose a pathway to an integrated CCS network that connects multiple industrial CO2 sources and geologic storage reservoirs using existing CCS technologies. Specifically, we propose that such a network could utilize CO2 emissions from ethylene manufacturing for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in the U.S. Gulf Coast region, creating a regional ethylene: CO2-EOR network. The ethylene market presents several key advantages for capturing CO2: ethylene is a high-value chemical with a price that can readily absorb capture costs (unlike fossil fuel electricity generation), ethylene sources are both closely clustered and emit a large volume of CO2, and existing capture technology is cost-competitive when coupled with nearby EOR reservoirs. Our analysis describes the techno-economic potential of CO2 capture and EOR, the potential policy implications, and how the ethylene industry could be an ideal first-mover for jumpstarting commercial-scale CCS operations. As part of this analysis we identify the costs and CO2 flows for ethylene production and EOR across the Gulf Coast region. We introduce the concepts of "byproduct CO2" (CO2 as a byproduct or waste stream from an existing industry such as power generation) and "extracted CO2" (naturally-occurring CO2 extracted from subsurface reservoirs for EOR); extracted CO2 cannot decrease the carbon footprint of oil production, unlike byproduct CO2. We also suggest ethylene: CO2-EOR as a blueprint for other regional-scale byproduct CO2-E OR projects such as the Alberta oil sands, Marcellus and other U.S. shale fields, and large-scale coal-to-liquid and coal-to-chemical operations in China.

AB The proliferation of commercial development in U.S. gas-bearing shales helped to drive a twelve-fold increase in domestic gas production between 2000 and 2010, and the nation's gas production rates continue to grow. While shales have long been regarded as a desirable caprock for CCS operations because of their low permeability and porosity, there is increasing interest in the feasibility of injecting CO2 into shales to enhance methane recovery and augment CO2 storage. Laboratory work published in recent years observes that shales with adsorbed methane appear to exhibit a stronger affinity for CO2 adsorption, offering the potential to drive additional CH4 recovery beyond primary production and perhaps the potential to store a larger volume of CO2 than the volume of methane displaced. Recent research by the authors on the revenues associated with CO2-enhanced gas recovery (CO2-EGR) in gas-bearing shales estimates that, based on a range of EGR response rates, the average revenue per ton of CO2 for projects managed over both EGR and subsequent storage-only phases could range from $ 0.50 to $ 18/tCO(2). While perhaps not as profitable as EOR, for regions where lower-cost storage options may be limited, shales could represent another "early opportunity" storage option if proven feasible for reliable EGR and CO2 storage. Significant storage potential exists in gas shales, with theoretical CO2 storage resources estimated at approximately 30-50 GtCO(2). However, an analysis of the comprehensive cost competitiveness of these various options is necessary to understand the degree to which they might meaningfully impact U.S. CCS deployment or costs. This preliminary analysis shows that the degree to which EGR-based CO2 storage could play a role in commercial-scale deployment is heavily dependent upon the offsetting revenues associated with incremental recovery; modeling the low revenue case resulted in only five shale-based projects, while under the high revenue case, shales accounted for as much as 20 percent of total U.S. storage in the first 20 years of deployment. Interestingly, even in this highest revenue case, there appear to be no negative-cost projects that would be profitable in a no-policy environment as modeled under the assumptions employed. While this reflects a very first look at the potential for shales, it is clear that more laboratory and experimental work are needed to reduce uncertainty in key variables and begin to differentiate and identify high-potential shales for early pilot study.

AB Carbon dioxide capture and geological storage (CCS) is regarded as a promising option for climate change mitigation; however, the high capture cost is the major barrier to large-scale deployment of CCS technologies. High-purity CO2 emission sources can reduce or even avoid the capture requirements and costs. Among these high-purity CO2 sources, certain coal chemical industry processes are very important, especially in China. In this paper, the basic characteristics of coal chemical industries in China is investigated and analyzed. As of 2013 there were more than 100 coal chemical plants in operation. These emission sources together emit 430 million tons CO2 per year, of which about 30% are emit high-purity and pure O-2 (CO2 concentration > 80% and > 98.5% respectively). Four typical source-sink pairs are chosen for techno-economic evaluation, including site screening and selection, source-sink matching, concept design, and economic evaluation. The technical-economic evaluation shows that the levelized cost of a CO2 capture and aquifer storage project in the coal chemistry industry ranges from 14 USD/t to 17 USD/t CO2. When a 15USD/t CO2 tax and 20USD/t for CO2 sold to EOR are considered, the levelized cost of CCS project are negative, which suggests a benefit from some of these CCS projects.

AB We present an approach that uses the huge fluid and thermal storage capacity of the subsurface, together with geologic CO2 storage, to harvest, store, and dispatch energy from subsurface (geothermal) and surface (solar, nuclear, fossil) thermal resources, as well as energy from electrical grids. Captured CO2 is injected into saline aquifers to store pressure, generate artesian flow of brine, and provide an additional working fluid for efficient heat extraction and power conversion. Concentric rings of injection and production wells are used to create a hydraulic divide to store pressure, CO2, and thermal energy. Such storage can take excess power from the grid and excess/waste thermal energy, and dispatch that energy when it is demanded, enabling increased penetration of variable renewables. Stored CO2 functions as a cushion gas to provide enormous pressure-storage capacity and displaces large quantities of brine, which can be desalinated and/or treated for a variety of beneficial uses. Geothermal power and energy-storage applications may generate enough revenues to justify CO2 capture costs. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID WORKING FLUID
AB The heat transfer and fluid transport of supercritical CO2 in enhanced geothermal system (EGS) is studied numerically with local thermal non-equilibrium model, which accounts for the temperature difference between solid matrix and fluid components in porous media and uses two energy equations to describe heat transfer in the solid matrix and in the fluid, respectively. As compared with the previous results of our research group, the effect of local thermal non-equilibrium mainly depends on the volumetric heat transfer coefficient ah, which has a significant effect on the production temperature at reservoir outlet and thermal breakthrough time. The uniformity of volumetric heat transfer coefficient ah has little influence on the thermal breakthrough time, but the temperature difference become more obvious with time after thermal breakthrough with this simulation model. The thermal breakthrough time reduces and the effect of local thermal non-equilibrium becomes significant with decreasing ah. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This study develops a statistical method to perform uncertainty quantification for understanding CO2 storage potential within an enhanced oil recovery (EOR) environment at the Farnsworth Unit of the Anadarko Basin in northern Texas. A set of geostatistical-based Monte Carlo simulations of CO2-oil-water flow and reactive transport in the Morrow formation are conducted for global sensitivity and statistical analysis of the major uncertainty metrics: net CO2 injection, cumulative oil production, cumulative gas (CH4) production, and net water injection. A global sensitivity and response surface analysis indicates that reservoir permeability, porosity, and thickness are the major intrinsic reservoir parameters that control net CO2 injection/storage and oil/gas recovery rates. The well spacing and the initial water saturation also have large impact on the oil/gas recovery rates. Further, this study has revealed key insights into the potential behavior and the operational parameters of CO2 sequestration at CO2-EOR sites, including the impact of reservoir characterization uncertainty; understanding this uncertainty is critical in terms of economic decision making and the cost-effectiveness of CO2 storage through EOR.

DE Shale gas; hydraulic fracturing; supercritical CO2
AB Hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling has led to a shale gas energy boom in the United States. In addition to decreasing domestic energy costs, shale gas production has substantially reduced domestic CO2 emissions, largely due to natural gas displacing coal-fired electricity generation. Water is the principal component of working fluids used for commercial hydraulic fracturing, along with other constituent chemicals and substances to enhance fracture propagation/longevity and propping agent (e.g., sand) transport. Industry, policy makers, and other stakeholders are aware of potential disadvantages of aqueous fracturing fluids, including water scarcity, environmental impact from constituent chemicals, and poor fracture performance. To address these problems we are undertaking a study using supercritical CO2 as a replacement working fluid. Supercritical CO2 has many potential benefits and drawbacks compared with water as a fracturing fluid; it may increase gas production through several coupled processes including enhanced fracturing, reduced flow blocking, and miscibility with in-place hydrocarbons, as well as challenges such as economics, resource availability, and assurances that the CO2 is safely sequestered in the target formation. Through a combination of basic experiments, modelling, and historical research, we formally address these issues. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Natural gas is considered a cleaner and lower-emission fuel than coal, and its high abundance from advanced drilling techniques has positioned natural gas as a major alternative energy source for the U.S. However, each ton of CO2 emitted from any type of fossil fuel combustion will continue to increase global atmospheric concentrations. One unique approach to reducing anthropogenic CO2 emissions involves coupling CO2 based enhanced gas recovery (EGR) operations in depleted shale gas reservoirs with long-term CO2 storage operations. In this paper, we report unique findings about the interactions between important shale minerals and sorbing gases (CH4 and CO2) and associated economic consequences. Where enhanced condensation of CO2 followed by desorption on clay surface is observed under supercritical conditions, a linear sorption profile emerges for CH. Volumetric changes to montmorillonites occur during exposure to CO2. Theory-based simulations identify interactions with interlayer cations as energetically favorable for CO2 intercalation. In contrast, experimental evidence suggests CH4 does not occupy the interlayer and has only the propensity for surface adsorption. Mixed CH4:CO2 gas systems, where CH4 concentrations prevail, indicate preferential CO2 sorption as determined by in situ infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques. Collectively, these laboratory studies combined with a cost-based economic analysis provide a basis for identifVing favorable CO2-EOR opportunities in previously fractured shale gas reservoirs approaching final stages of primary gas production. Moreover, utilization of site-specific laboratory measurements in reservoir simulators provides insight into optimum injection strategies for maximizing CH4/CO2, exchange rates to obtain peak natural gas production.

AB Numerical simulation is an invaluable analytical tool for scientists and engineers in making predictions about of the fate of carbon dioxide injected into deep geologic formations for long-term storage. Current numerical simulators for assessing storage in deep saline formations have capabilities for modeling strongly coupled processes involving multifluid flow, heat transfer, chemistry, and rock mechanics in geologic media. Except for moderate pressure conditions, numerical simulators for deep saline formations only require the tracking of two immiscible phases and a limited number of phase components, beyond those comprising the geochemical reactive system. The requirements for numerically simulating the utilization and storage of carbon dioxide in partially depleted petroleum reservoirs are more numerous than those for deep saline formations. The minimum number of immiscible phases increases to three, the number of phase components may easily increase fourfold, and the coupled processes of heat transfer, geochemistry, and geomechanics remain. Public and scientific confidence in the ability of numerical simulators used for carbon dioxide sequestration in deep saline formations has advanced via a natural progression of the simulators being proven against benchmark problems, code comparisons, laboratory-scale experiments, pilot-scale injections, and commercial-scale injections. This paper describes a new numerical simulator for the scientific investigation of carbon dioxide utilization and storage in partially depleted petroleum reservoirs, with an emphasis on its unique features for scientific investigations. The mathematical foundations of this new simulator for enhanced oil recovery are those of the simulators developed for carbon sequestration in deep saline reservoirs, altered to consider the increased number of potential phases and compositional aspects by considering the oil in the system. As a demonstration of the simulator, a numerical simulation of carbon dioxide utilization for enhanced oil recovery in the western section of the Farnsworth Unit, representing an early stage in the progression of numerical simulators for carbon utilization and storage in depleted oil reservoirs.

ID ELECTROMIGRATION; INTEGRATION; JOINTS
AB As the Moore's law is drawing to an end, there is a growing consensus that 3D stacking of Si integrated circuit chips is necessary to continue the current technological trend. In our work, a test 3D IC structure is successfully achieved and the effect of filler trap on microbump of solder joints will be discussed. In our test samples, the two Si chips are connected through thermo-compression bonding of 20 mu m diameter microbumps. After bonding the two chips together, some underfill materials are found to stay on the interface of joining in the microbumps; the residual underfill in the microbump is defined as "filler trap". Together with the formation of filler trap, a ring-type solder extrusion also forms on the circumference of the microbump. Although the filler trap is an electrical insulator, it has been found that the solder extrusion is a good electricity conductor. But the filler trap in solder can cause a detour of electric current path in solder. The detoured current potentially increases current crowding in the joint which might be accelerating electromigration. To investigate this potential issue, specially processed test vehicle which intentionally has higher filler traps and solder protrusion was fabricated for easier detection. The synchrotron radiation x-ray tomography results show that the solder extrusion in microbumps have a random shape, which may cause a random distribution of early failure in electromigration.

AB The recent applications of 3D X-ray computed tomography (CT) in microelectronic packages, including non-destructive failure analysis, defect monitoring in solder joints and Cu vias, and progressive reliability study of solder voids, electron migration induced void nucleation in solder joints, and void evolution in Cu vias are reviewed. The high resolution and non-destructive 3D X-ray CT data has proven to be highly valuable in package assembly process development, quality control and reliability risk assessment; however, the field of view of current lab-scale 3D X-ray CT technology is limited to about 1-2mm(2) localized area at micron level resolution, due to its low brightness and non-parallel X-ray beam resulting in long data acquisition time. Synchrotron X-ray sources, on the other hand, can provide large area collimated beams with high brightness, which allows imaging within 3-20 minutes an entire 3D package, including Si, underfill, multiple levels of solder joints, and dielectric layers, Cu vias as well as through holes in multiple substrates. The limitation of current 3D X-ray CT techniques as well as directions for next generation 3D X-ray CT techniques provided by the synchrotron X-ray study of 3D packages are discussed in this paper.

AB Microelectronic devices are subjected to constantly varying temperature conditions during their operational lifetime, which can lead to their failure. In this study, we examined the impact of thermal cycling on the evolution of stresses in Cu TSVs using synchrotron-based X-ray micro-diffraction. Two test conditions were analyzed: as-received and 1000 cycled samples. The principal and shear stresses in the 1000 cycled sample were five times greater than in the as-received sample. This was attributed to the increased strain hardening upon thermal cycling. The variation in stresses with thermal cycling is a clear indication that the impact of Cu TSV proximity on front-end-of-line (FEOL) device performance will fluctuate throughout the lifetime of the 3D stacked dies, and thus should be accounted for during FEOL keep-out-zone design rule development.

AB An auxiliary coordinated control approach focusing on transient voltage stability is proposed in this paper. The concept is based on support vector machine (SVM) classifier and multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) model predictive control (MPC) on the high penetration renewable power system. To achieve the objective, the voltage stability condition of the power system is predicted by the SVM classifier first, using measured synchrophasor data in the power system. Next, the control strategy is triggered by the prediction results. The designed auxiliary MPC strategy will augment the existing control variables aiming to keep transient voltage stability.
To validate the proposed approach, the Kundur two-area power system with a wind plant is built and the numerical results demonstrate the feasibility, effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method.

AB For the stable operation of a grid, the voltages of all buses in the grid should be maintained within an acceptable range. For a grid with high wind penetration, wind power plants (WPPs) are required to have the capability to maintain the voltage at the point of common coupling (PCC). Wind generators in a WPP produce the different active power due to the wake effects and consequently contain different reactive power availability. This paper proposes a voltage control scheme of a doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG)-based WPP using the adaptive reactive power-voltage (Q-V) characteristic of DFIGs. The WPP controller calculates a voltage error signal using a PI controller and sends it to each DFIG. From the voltage error signal, the DFIG injects the reactive power based on its adaptive Q-V characteristic, which depends on the available reactive power. The proposed scheme adjusts the Q-V characteristic depending on the operating condition of a DFIG. The proposed scheme enables the WPP to recover the PCC voltage to the nominal value within a short time after a disturbance by utilizing the reactive power capability of a WPP. The performance of the scheme was investigated for a 100 MW WPP consisting of 20 units of a 5 MW DFIG for a grid fault condition. The results show the proposed scheme successfully recovers the PCC voltage within a short time after a disturbance.

ID TURBINES
AB In a wind power plant (WPP) consisting of multiple wind generators (WGs), the wind speed of WGs at the downstream side decreases due to the wake effect, and thus their rotor speeds are smaller than those of the upstream WGs because of an MPPT operation. Therefore, WGs in a WPP have different amount of the kinetic energy stored in their rotating masses. This paper proposes a droop assignment algorithm for the inertial control of a doubly-fed induction generator-based WPP to support the grid frequency during the large disturbance. This paper assumes that a WG in the WPP has two supplementary loops for the inertial control, i.e. the frequency deviation loop and the rate of change of frequency (ROCOF) loop. In order to give more contribution on supporting the frequency stability by temporarily releasing more kinetic energy, the proposed algorithm assigns the droop of each WG depending on the rotor speed, while the same gains of the ROCOF loop are set for all WGs. In addition, the wake wind speed arriving at the WG is calculated by considering the wind direction and cumulative impacts of multiple shadowing. The performance of the algorithm was investigated under various wind conditions using an EMTP simulator. The results clearly indicate that the algorithm successfully improves the frequency nadir because WGs with higher wind speeds temporarily releases more kinetic energy.

AB This paper investigates the potential for wind power plants (WPPs) and photovoltaic power plants (PVPs) to damp inter-area oscillations. Inter-area oscillations may be the result of a single or a group of generators oscillating against another group of generators across a weak transmission link. If poorly damped, these power system oscillations can cause system instability and potentially lead to blackouts. Power conversion devices, particularly megawatt-scale converters that connect wind turbines and photovoltaic power plants to the grid, could be used to damp these oscillations by injecting power into the system out of phase with the potentially unstable mode. Over time, the net energy injection is near zero; therefore, providing this "static damping" capability is not expected to affect annual energy production. However, WPPs and PVPs have different capabilities due to the inherent physical nature of these plants. WPPs have some energy stored in the rotating masses of the turbines, while PVPs have no such stored energy. Thus the challenge of providing oscillation damping services will have to be approached differently for WPPs and PVPPs. In this work strategies for providing oscillation damping services from WPPs and PVPs are compared and contrasted.
Kundur's well-known two-area, four-generator system is modeled in PSCAD/EMTDC. The WPP and PVP models are based on the Western Electricity Coordination Council (WECC) standard models. Controllers to damp inter-area oscillations are developed and added to the WECC WPP and PVP models, and their effects are studied. Analysis is performed on the data generated by the simulations.

AB As the scale and complexity of future High Performance Computing systems continues to grow, the rising frequency of faults and errors and their impact on HPC applications will make it increasingly difficult to accomplish useful computation. Traditional means of fault detection and correction are either hardware based or use software based redundancy. Redundancy based approaches usually entail complete replication of the program state or the computation and therefore incurs substantial overhead to application performance. Therefore, the wide-scale use of full redundancy in future exascale class systems is not a viable solution for error detection and correction.
In this paper we present an application level fault detection approach that is based on adaptive redundant multithreading. Through a language level directive, the programmer can define structured code blocks. When these blocks are executed by multiple threads and their outputs compared, we can detect errors in specific parts of the program state that will ultimately determine the correctness of the application outcome. The compiler outlines such code blocks and a runtime system reasons whether their execution by redundant threads should enabled/disabled by continuously observing and learning about the fault tolerance state of the system. By providing flexible building blocks for application specific fault detection, our approach makes possible more reasonable performance overheads than full redundancy. Our results show that the overheads to application performance are in the range of 4% to 70% due to runtime system being continuously aware of the rate and source of system faults, rather than the usual overhead in the excess of 100% that is incurred by complete replication.

In particular, this paper presents the big data cube primitives provided by the Ophidia framework, discussing in detail the most relevant and available data cube manipulation operators. These primitives represent the proper foundations to build more complex data cube operators like the apex one presented in this paper.

Real gas effects are considered and the specific "vessel within vessel" geometry of cryogenic vessels. For practical reasons, this study focuses on hydrogen release from 34.5 MPa, with initial temperatures of 62 K and 300 K. The high pressure vessel internal volume is 151 L. Pressure versus time graphs indicate that the vacuum jacket resist the pressure build up until reaching the rupture disc setting to finally release into the atmosphere, and a comparative of this result with the ASME Code burst pressure calculation is presented.

AB In automotive power electronics packages, conventional thermal interface materials such as greases, gels, and phase change materials pose bottlenecks to heat removal and are also associated with reliability concerns. There is an industry trend towards high thermal performance bonded interfaces. However, due to coefficient of thermal expansion mismatches between materials/layers and resultant thermomechanical stresses, adhesive and cohesive fractures could occur, posing a problem from a reliability standpoint. These defects manifest themselves in increased thermal resistance in the package.
The objective of this research is to investigate and improve the thermal performance and reliability of emerging bonded interface materials for power electronics packaging applications. We present results for thermal performance and reliability of bonded interfaces based on thermoplastic (polyamide) adhesive, with embedded near-vertical aligned carbon fibers, as well as sintered silver material. The results for these two materials are compared to conventional lead-based (Sn63Pb37) bonded interfaces. These materials were bonded between 50.8-mm x 50.8-mm cross-sectional footprint silicon nitride substrates and copper base plate samples. Samples of the substrate/base plate bonded assembly underwent thermal cycling from -40 degrees C to 150 degrees C according to Joint Electron Devices Engineering Council standard Number 22-A104D for up to 2,000 cycles. The dwell time of the cycle was 10 minutes and the ramp rate was 5 degrees C/minute. Damage was monitored every 100 cycles by acoustic microscopy as an indicator of an increase in thermal resistance of the interface layer. The acoustic microscopic images of the bonded interfaces after 2,000 thermal cycles showed that thermoplastics with embedded carbon fibers performed quite well with no defects, whereas interface delamination occurred in the case of sintered silver material. Both these materials showed a superior bond quality as compared to the lead-based solder interface even after 1,000 thermal cycles.

AB A unified creep plasticity damage (UCPD) model for Sn-Pb and Pb-free solders was developed and implemented into finite element analysis codes. The new model will be described along with the relationship between the model's damage evolution equation and an empirical Coffin-Manson relationship for solder fatigue.,Next, developments needed to model crack initiation and growth in solder joints will be described. Finally, experimentally observed cracks in typical solder joints subjected to thermal mechanical fatigue are compared with model predictions. Finite element based modeling is particularly suited for predicting solder joint fatigue of advanced electronics packaging, e.g. package-on-package (PoP), because it allows for evaluation of a variety of package materials and geometries.

AB Continuing increase in the computational power of supercomputers has enabled large-scale scientific applications in the areas of astrophysics, fusion, climate and combustion to run larger and longer-running simulations, facilitating deeper scientific insights. However, these long-running simulations are often interrupted by multiple system failures. Therefore, these applications rely on "checkpointing" as a resilience mechanism to store application state to permanent storage and recover from failures.
Unfortunately, checkpointing incurs excessive I/O overhead on supercomputers due to large size of checkpoints, resulting in a suboptimal performance and resource utilization. In this paper, we devise novel mechanisms to show how checkpointing overhead can be mitigated significantly by exploiting the temporal characteristics of system failures. We provide new insights and detailed quantitative understanding of the checkpointing overheads and trade-offs on large-scale machines. Our prototype implementation shows the viability of our approach on extreme-scale machines.

AB As high-performance computing systems continue to grow in size and complexity, energy efficiency and reliability have emerged as first-order concerns. Researchers have shown that data movement is a significant contributing factor to power consumption on these systems. Additionally, rollback/recovery protocols like checkpoint/restart can generate large volumes of data traffic exacerbating the energy and power concerns. In this work, we show that a coarse-grained model can be used effectively to speculate about the energy footprints of rollback/recovery protocols. Using our validated model, we evaluate the energy footprint of checkpoint compression, a method that incurs higher computational demand to reduce data volumes and data traffic. Specifically, we show that while checkpoint compression leads to more frequent checkpoints (as per the optimal checkpoint frequency) and increases per checkpoint energy cost, compression still yields a decrease in total application energy consumption due to the overall runtime decrease.

AB Heterogeneous many-core architectures combined with scratch-pad memories are attractive because they promise better energy efficiency than conventional architectures and a good balance between single-thread performance and multithread throughput. However, programmers will need an environment for finding and managing the large degree of parallelism, locality, and system resilience. We propose a Python-based task parallel programming model called PyDac to support these objectives. PyDac provides a two-level programming model based on the divide-and-conquer strategy. The PyDac runtime system allows threads to be run on unreliable hardware by dynamically checking the results without involvement from the programmer. To test this programming model and runtime, an unconventional heterogeneous architecture consisting of PowerPC and ARM cores was developed and emulated on an FPGA device. We inject faults during the execution of micro-benchmarks and show that through the use of double and triple modular redundancy we are able to complete the benchmarks with the correct results while only incurring a proportional performance penalty.

AB With the rapid scale out of supercomputers comes a corresponding higher failure frequency. Fault-tolerant methods have evolved to adapt to high rates of failure, but the behavior of MPI, the most widely used scalable programming middleware, is insufficient when confronting such failures. We present FA-MPI (Fault-Aware MPI), a set of extensions to the MPI standard designed to enable applications to implement a wide range of fault-tolerant methods. FA-MPI introduces transactional concepts to the MPI programming model for the first time to address failure detection, isolation, mitigation, and recovery via application-driven policies. To reach the maximum achievable performance of these scalable machines, overlapping communication and I/O with computation through non-blocking operations (while reducing jitter) are design themes of growing importance. Therefore, we emphasize fault tolerant, non-blocking communication operations combined with a set of nestable lightweight transactional TryBlock API extensions architected to exploit system and application hierarchy both for failure detection and recovery. This is to enable applications to run to completion with higher probability than otherwise. Scaling up and out and fault-free overhead are key concerns that can be managed by tuning transaction granularity; we provide a simulation of FA-MPI in a stencil 3D program to illustrate this. Supported failure models include but are not limited to process failures, a key difference from other proposed fault-tolerant extensions to MPI. Restriction to non-blocking operations is a current limitation as compared to other proposed approaches insofar as legacy applications are concerned, but FA-MPI aligns well with future-looking applications emphasizing Exascale. And, tools to evolve legacy MPI programs to this fault-aware paradigm will soon bridge that portability gap.

AB Extreme-scale computing will bring significant changes to high performance computing system architectures. In particular, the increased number of system components is creating a need for software to demonstrate "pervasive parallelism" and resiliency. Asynchronous, many-task programming models show promise in addressing both the scalability and resiliency challenges; however, they introduce an enormously challenging distributed, resilient consistency problem. In this work, we explore the viability of resilient collective communication in task scheduling and work stealing and, through simulation with SST/macro, the performance of these collectives on speculative extreme-scale architectures.

ID CYBER SECURITY
AB In this paper, we describe our novel use of network intrusion detection systems (NIDS) for protecting automated distribution systems (ADS) against certain types of cyber attacks in a new way. The novelty consists of using the hybrid control environment rules and model as the baseline for what is normal and what is an anomaly, tailoring the security policies to the physical operation of the system. NIDS sensors in our architecture continuously analyze traffic in the communication medium that comes from embedded controllers, checking if the data and commands exchanged conform to the expected structure of the controllers interactions, and evolution of the system's physical state. Considering its importance in future ADSs, we chose the fault location, isolation and service restoration (FLISR) process as our distribution automation case study for the NIDS deployment. To test our scheme, we emulated the FLISR process using real programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that interact with a simulated physical infrastructure. We used this testbed to examine the capability of our NIDS approach in several attack scenarios. The experimental analysis reveals that our approach is capable of detecting various attacks scenarios including the attacks initiated within the trusted perimeter of the automation network by attackers that have complete knowledge about the communication information exchanged.

AB In power grid operations, security is an essential component for any middleware platform. Security protects data against unwanted access as well as cyber attacks. GridOptics (TM) Software System (GOSS) is an open source power grid analytics platform that facilitates ease of access between applications and data sources and promotes development of advanced analytical applications. GOSS contains an API that abstracts many of the difficulties in connecting to various heterogeneous data sources. A number of applications and data sources have already been implemented to demonstrate functionality and ease of use. A security framework has been implemented which leverages widely accepted, robust Java (TM) security tools in a way such that they can be interchanged as needed. This framework supports the complex fine-grained, access control rules identified for the diverse data sources already in GOSS. Performance and reliability are also important considerations in any power grid architecture. An evaluation is done to determine the overhead cost caused by security within GOSS and ensure minimal impact to performance.

AB The purpose of this research is to the problem of optimal sizing of energy storage required for compensation of wind farm generation variability. Using wind farm production data from the BPA, we assess the effect of forecast quality and economic dispatch timing on the size of storage and critical power rating required to nearly perfectly match the committed energy. We develop a Model-Predictive-Control (MPC) based operational model following NERC standard recommendations. Different forecasts are considered and compared from the storage sizing perspective. The results of our simulations can be fit by two simple relations, connecting the storage sizing with forecast error, wind variability, and the timescales of scheduling. A more accurate forecast reduces the storage sizing. However, diminishing returns are observed when the forecast error becomes comparable to natural wind variability within the commitment time interval. The proposed methodology can be extended to other systems with intermittent generation and controllable real or virtual storage.

AB Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a neurological condition related to early stages of dementia such as Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study explores non-event-related multiscale entropy (MSE) measures as features for effectively discriminating between normal aging, MCI, and AD participants. Resting EEG records from 48 age-matched participants (mean age 75.7 years)-15 normal controls (NC), 16 MCI, and 17 early AD are examined. Multiscale entropy curves are computed for short EEG segments and averaged over the segments. Binary discriminations among the three groups are conducted using support vector machine models. Leave-one-out cross-validation accuracies of 80.7% (p-value <0.0018) for MCI vs. NC, 87.5% (p-value <1.322E-4) for AD vs. NC, and 90.9% (p-value <2.788E-5) for MCI vs. AD are achieved. Results demonstrate influence of cognitive deficits on multiscale entropy dynamics of non-event-related EEG.

The internal pressure of the tubes is 20 MPa. The receiver tubes are arranged in a serpentine fashion and are coated with Pyromark 2500. Analyses were performed to evaluate the thermal efficiency of the receiver as a function of incidence angle of the incident radiation. Two different radiation models, discrete ordinates and surface-to-surface ray tracing, were used in the computational fluid dynamics model (ANSYS FLUENT). The receiver thermal efficiency ranged from 75% for incidence angles of 80 degrees to 88% for near-normal incidence angles of 10 degrees.

AB Cavity receivers have been an integral part of Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) plants for many years. However, falling solid particle receivers (SPR) which employ a cavity design are only in the beginning stages of on-sun testing and evaluation. A prototype SPR has been developed which will be fully integrated into a complete system to demonstrate the effectiveness of this technology in the CSP sector. The receiver is a rectangular cavity with an aperture on the north side, open bottom (for particle collection), and a slot in the top (particle curtain injection). The solid particles fall from the top of the cavity through the solar flux and are collected after leaving the receiver. There are inherent design challenges with this type of receiver including particle curtain opacity, high wall fluxes, high wall temperatures, and high heat losses. CFD calculations using ANSYS FLUENT were performed to evaluate the effectiveness of the current receiver design. The particle curtain mass flow rate needed to be carefully regulated such that the curtain opacity is high (to intercept as much solar radiation as possible), but also low enough to increase the average particle temperature by 200 degrees C. Wall temperatures were shown to be less than 1200 degrees C when the particle curtain mass flow rate is 2.7 kg/s/m which is critical for the receiver insulation. The size of the cavity was shown to decrease the incident flux on the cavity walls and also reduced the wall temperatures. A thermal efficiency of 92% was achieved, but was obtained with a higher particle mass flow rate resulting in a lower average particle temperature rise. A final prototype receiver design has been completed utilizing the computational evaluation and past CSP project experiences.

AB A supercritical CO2 test facility is currently being developed at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India to analyze the performance of a closed loop Brayton cycle for concentrated solar power (CSP) generation. The loop has been designed for an external heat input of 20 kW a pressure range of 75-135 bar, flow rate of 11 kg/min, and a maximum cycle temperature of 525 degrees C. The operation of the loop and the various parametric tests planned to be performed are discussed in this paper The paper addresses various aspects of the loop design with emphasis on design of various components such as regenerator and expansion device. The regenerator design is critical due to sharp property variations in CO2 occurring during the heat exchange process between the hot and cold streams. Two types of heat exchanger configurations 1) tube-in-tube (TITHE) and 2) printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) are analyzed and compared. A PCHE is found to be similar to 5 times compact compared to a TITHE for identical heat transfer and pressure drops. The expansion device is being custom designed to achieve the desired pressure drop for a range of operating temperatures. It is found that capillary of 5.5 mm inner diameter and similar to 2 meter length is sufficient to achieve a pressure drop from 130 to 75 bar at a maximum cycle temperature of 525 degrees C.

AB Turbine inlet pressures of similar to 300 bar in case of CO2 based cycles call for redesigning the cycle in such a way that the optimum high side pressures are restricted to the discharge pressure limits imposed by currently available commercial compressors (similar to 150 bar) for distributed power generation. This leads to a cycle which is a combination of a transcritical condensing and a subcritical cycle with an intercooler and a bifurcation system in it. Using a realistic thermodynamic model, it is predicted that the cycle with the working fluid as a non-flammable mixture of 48.5 % propane and rest CO2 delivers similar to 37.2 % efficiency at 873 K with a high and a low side pressure of 150 and 26 bar respectively. This is in contrast to the best efficiency of similar to 36.1 % offered by a transcritical condensing cycle with the same working fluid at a high side pressure of similar to 300 bar

AB Next-generation solar power conversion systems in concentrating solar power (CSP) applications require high-temperature advanced fluids in the range of 600 degrees to 900 degrees C. Molten salts are good candidates for CSP applications, but they are generally very corrosive to common alloys used in vessels, heat exchangers, and piping at these elevated temperatures. The majority of the molten-salt corrosion evaluations for sulfates with chlorides and some vanadium compounds have been performed for waste incinerators, gas turbine engines, and electric power generation (steam-generating equipment) applications for different materials and molten-salt systems. The majority of the molten-salt corrosion kinetic models under isothermal and thermal cyclic conditions have been established using the weight-loss method and metallographic cross-section analyses. Electrochemical techniques for molten salts have not been employed for CSP applications in the past. Recently, these techniques have been used for a better understanding of the fundamentals behind the hot corrosion mechanisms for thin-film molten salts in gas turbine engines and electric power generation. The chemical (or electrochemical) reactions and transport modes are complex for hot corrosion in systems involving multi-component alloys and salts; but some insight can be gained through thenuochemical models to identify major reactions. Electrochemical evaluations were performed on 310SS and In800H in the molten eutectic NaCl-LiCl at 650 degrees C using an open current potential followed by a potentiodynamic polarization sweep. Corrosion rates were determined using Tafel slopes and the Faraday law. The corrosion current density and the corrosion potentials using Pt wire as the reference electrode are reported.

AB High-temperature receiver designs for solar powered supercritical CO2 Brayton cycles that can produce 1 MW of electricity are being investigated. Advantages of a supercritical CO2 closed-loop Brayton cycle with recuperation include high efficiency (-50%) and a small footprint relative to equivalent systems employing steam Rankine power cycles. Heating for the supercritical CO2 system occurs in a high-temperature solar receiver that can produce temperatures of at least 700 degrees C. Depending on whether the CO2 is heated directly or indirectly, the receiver may need to withstand pressures up to 20 MPa (200 bar). This paper reviews several high-temperature receiver designs that have been investigated as part of the SERIIUS program. Designs for direct heating of CO2 include volumetric receivers and tubular receivers, while designs for indirect heating include volumetric air receivers, molten-salt and liquid-metal tubular receivers, and falling particle receivers. Indirect receiver designs also allow storage of thermal energy for dispatchable electricity generation. Advantages and disadvantages of alternative designs are presented. Current results show that the most viable options include tubular receiver designs for direct and indirect heating of CO2 and falling particle receiver designs for indirect heating and storage.

AB The use of an air curtain blowing across the aperture of a falling-particle receiver has been proposed to mitigate convective heat losses and to protect the flow of particles from external winds. This paper presents experimental and numerical studies that evaluate the impact of an air curtain on the performance of a falling particle receiver. Unheated experimental studies were performed to evaluate the impact of various factors (particle size, particle mass flow rate, particle release location, air-curtain flow rate, and external wind) on particle flow, stability, and loss through the aperture. Numerical simulations were performed to evaluate the impact of an air curtain on the thermal efficiency of a falling particle receiver at different operating temperatures. Results showed that the air curtain reduced particle loss when particles were released near the aperture in the presence of external wind, but the presence of the air curtain did not generally improve the flow characteristics and loss of the particles for other scenarios. Numerical results showed that the presence of an air curtain could reduce the convective heat losses, but only at higher temperatures (>600 degrees C) when buoyant hot air leaving the aperture was significant.

ID ELECTRODYNAMIC SCREEN
AB Integration of electro-dynamic screens (EDS) on mirrors in CSP power plants is an emergent and environmentally conservative technology. It can remove the deposited dust from these mirrors and thus maintain high reflectivity continuously through the plant life. We propose a levelized cost of mirror cleaning (LCOMC) metric to link the EDS-enhanced reflectivity gains with the relevant product and installation costs, as well as with the direct and indirect costs associated with plant operation and maintenance. The LCOMC metric accounts for the fact that enhanced reflectivity owing to EDS technology allows the plant operators to specify a suitably smaller optical capacity plant in order to deliver a fixed power production target. We illustrate our proposal with a dataset on deluge cleaning of a scaled solar power plant configuration. For the configuration studied, it is shown that, if the EDS technology production and installation cost is $10/m(2), then its LCOMC is 7.9% below the LCOMC for a comparable deluge cleaning alternative. Thus, the proposed LCOMC metric provides a methodology for systemic assessment of the economic impact of the EDS technology (and other mirror cleaning technologies), early in its technology development cycle.

AB While the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) is generally emphasized when assessing the economic viability of renewable energy systems, the other benefits such as the operational and capacity value are often ignored. Concentrating solar power with thermal energy storage (CSP-TES) can be dispatched similarly to conventional thermal generation, which may lead to incorrect economic comparisons between CSP-TES and variable renewable generation technologies such as wind and photovoltaics (PV). However, unlike most conventional thermal power plants, CSP-TES plants are energy limited, meaning that their response might be restricted by solar availability. Therefore, the use of this limited solar energy must be optimally scheduled to provide the greatest value to the power system. The timing of CSP-TES dispatch depends on a variety of factors, including electricity demand patterns, the penetration of variable generation sources, and the configuration of the CSP-TES plant itself. We use an established CSP-TES modeling framework in a commercially available production cost model to study the dispatch and value of a molten salt tower CSP-TES plant in a test system simulating the Colorado grid. We examine a range of configuration parameters by varying the relative sizes of three separate but interrelated parts of the CSP-TES plant: the solar collection field, the power block, and the thermal storage tank. Firstly, we observe that increasing the thermal energy storage capacity of a plant reduces spilled energy and increases the ability to deploy thermal energy to displace the most costly forms of conventional generation. Additional storage, however, shows only marginal benefit beyond 6-9 hours of rated plant capacity. Secondly, we observe that reducing the ratio of solar collection field size to power block capacity (a design parameter often called the solar multiple [SM]) provides the most benefit to this test system per unit of energy produced. A large solar collection field size, relative to the rated capacity of the power block, forces some solar energy to be stored during the periods when conventional generation is most costly. The stored solar energy must then be used during off-peak hours to displace less costly fossil generation. The relative value of CSP-TES presented here is dependent on many system variables, including existing solar energy penetration. Future work must examine the impact of capital cost on the overall value proposition of these configurations of CSP-TES, since the upfront cost is not considered here.

AB Concentrating solar power (CSP) is an effective means of converting solar energy into electricity with an energy-storage capability for continuous, dispatchable, renewable power generation. However, challenges with current CSP systems include high initial capital cost and electricity price. The U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Sun Shot program aims to reduce cost and improve performance of CSP technology. To this end, NREL is developing a solid-particle based CSP system projected to have significant cost and performance advantages over current nitrate-based molten salt systems. The design uses gas/solid, two-phase flow as the heat transfer fluid and separated solid particles as the storage medium. A critical component in the system is a novel near-blackbody (NBB) enclosed particle receiver with high-temperature capability developed with the goal of meeting DOE's Sun Shot targets for receiver cost and performance. Development of the NBB enclosed particle receiver necessitates detailed study of the dimensions of the receiver, particle flow conditions, and heat transfer coefficients. The receiver utilizes an array of absorber tubes with a granular medium flowing downward through channels between tubes. The current study focuses on simulation and analysis of granular flow patterns and the resulting convective and conductive heat transfer to the particulate phase. This paper introduces modeling methods for the granular flow through the receiver module and compares the results with an in-situ particle flow test.

AB Parabolic trough and power tower technologies provide inherent advantage of thermal energy storage and high efficiency of the Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) systems for utility scale solar plants. High efficiency CSP power generation with minimal water use is one of the Sun Shot goals of the US Department of Energy. The specular reflectance efficiency of the solar mirrors plays a critical role in the efficiency of power generation. The optical surface of the mirrors and the receiver must be kept clean for efficient operation of the plant. Some environmental challenges in operating the large-scale CSP plants at high reflectance efficiency arise from high concentration of atmospheric dust, wind speed and variation of relative humidity (RH) over a wide range. Deposited dust and other contaminant particles, such as soot, salt, and organic particulate matters attenuate solar radiation by scattering and absorption. Adhesion of these particles on the mirror surface depends strongly by their composition and the moisture content in the atmosphere. Presence of soluble inorganic and organic salts cause corrosion of the mirror unless the contaminants are cleaned frequently.
In this paper, we briefly review (1) source of atmospheric dust and mechanisms involved in degradation of mirrors caused by salt particles, (2) loss of specular reflection efficiency as a function of particle size distribution and composition, and (3) an emerging technology for removing dust layer by using thin transparent electrodynamic screen (EDS). Feasibility of integration of EDS on the front surface of the solar collectors has been established to provide active self-cleaning properties for parabolic trough and heliostat reflectors.

AB Research of advanced power cycles has shown supercritical carbon dioxide power cycles may have thermal efficiency benefits relative to steam cycles at temperatures around 500 - 700 degrees C. To realize these benefits for CSP, it is necessary to increase the maximum outlet temperature of current tower designs. Research at NREL is investigating a concept that uses high-pressure supercritical carbon dioxide as the heat transfer fluid to achieve a 650 degrees C receiver outlet temperature. At these operating conditions, creep becomes an important factor in the design of a tubular receiver and contemporary design assumptions for both solar and traditional boiler applications must be revisited and revised. This paper discusses lessons learned for high-pressure, high-temperature tubular receiver design. An analysis of a simplified receiver tube is discussed, and the results show the limiting stress mechanisms in the tube and the impact on the maximum allowable flux as design parameters vary. Results of this preliminary analysis indicate an underlying trade-off between tube thickness and the maximum allowable flux on the tube. Future work will expand the scope of design variables considered and attempt to optimize the design based on cost and performance metrics.

AB Optically transparent superhydrophobic (SH) coatings based on multifunctional silica nanoparticles and polymeric binders were developed and their optical and abrasion resistance properties were studied. Three key factors are emphasized: i) The optical clarity of the coatings. Particle deagglomeration and surface functionalization techniques were developed to obtain particle size distributions with an average size smaller than 200 nm. The particles were uniformly dispersed in organic binders and resulted in coatings with an average roughness value smaller than 30 nm. The nano-sized particles do not scatter light at wavelengths > 250 nm because of their small dimensions. ii) Enhanced particle-binder interfaces. We have introduced a double functionality on the particle's surface in order to partially crosslink them with the polymeric binder. This multifunctional configuration significantly improves the abrasion resistance of the coatings without degrading their SH properties. Accelerated weathering durability. Coatings were subjected to simulated solar UV exposure. Our ongoing studies indicate that the coatings are environmentally durable over several years of simulated UVA exposure. The nanostructure-property interdependencies underlined in the above three key factors are utilized in the development of transparent SH coatings with enhanced durability.

AB One increasingly viable option for high temperature concentrator solar power (CSP) is a central receiver system with a particle heating receiver (PER). A PHR system uses suitable particulates to capture and store energy. It is expected that the particles will be sustained at high temperatures (in the range of 300 degrees C or 400 degrees C to 700 degrees C or 800 degrees C or even 1000 degrees C) on most typical days of plant operation, so there is interest in how the particle optical properties might change after prolonged high-temperature exposure.
This paper presents the results from experiments conducted over a 5-month period in which samples of various types of particulates including silica sands and alumina proppants were exposed to high temperatures for extended periods of time. The reflectance of a bed of particles was measured at room temperature in 8 wavelength bands using the 410-Solar reflectometer device developed by Surface Optics Corporation. The infrared emittance was determined using the ETS-100 emissometer instrument, also developed by Surface Optics Corporation [1,2].
Particles were heated to 950 degrees C and 350 degrees C, and measurements were recorded at intervals during the exposure so that trends in the optical properties over time could be observed. From the measured data, the total solar absorptance and total hemispherical emittance at high temperature were computed; these results are also presented.

AB For large scale CSP power plants, vast areas of land are needed in deserts and semi-arid climates where uninterrupted solar irradiance is most abundant. These power facilities use large arrays of mirrors to reflect and concentrate sunlight onto collectors, however, dust deposition on the optical surfaces causes obscuration of sunlight, resulting in large energy-yield losses in solar plants. This problem is compounded by the lack of natural clean water resources for conventional cleaning of solar mirrors, often with reflective surface areas of large installations exceeding a million square meters. To investigate the application of transparent electrodynamic screens (EDS) for efficient and cost effective dust removal from solar mirrors, both optical modeling and experimental verifications were performed. Prototype EDS-integrated mirrors were constructed by depositing a set of parallel transparent electrodes into the sun-facing surface of solar mirrors and coating electrodes with thin transparent dielectric film. Activation of the electrodes with a three-phase voltage creates an electrodynamic field that charges and repels dust electrostatically by Coulomb force and sweeps away particles by a traveling electrodynamic wave. We report here brief discussions on (1) rate of deposition and the properties of dust with respect to their size distribution and chemical composition in semi-arid areas of the southwest US and Mojave Desert and their adhesion to solar mirrors, (2) optical models of: (a) specular reflection losses caused by scattering and absorption by dust particles deposited on the surface based on Mie scattering theory, and (b) reflection loss by the integration of EDS on the mirror surface, computed by FRED ray-tracing model. The objective is to maintain specular reflectivity of 90% or higher by frequent removal of dust by EDS. Our studies show that the incorporation of transparent EDS would cause an initial loss of 3% but would be able to maintain specular reflectivity more than 90% to meet the industrial requirement for CSP plants. Specular reflection measurements taken inside a climate controlled environmental chamber show that EDS integration can restore specular reflectivity and would be able to prevent major degradation of the optical surface caused by the deposition of dust.

AB Solar optical modeling tools are valuable for modeling and predicting the performance of solar technology systems. Four optical modeling tools were evaluated using the National Solar Thermal Test Facility heliostat field combined with flat plate receiver geometry as a benchmark. The four optical modeling tools evaluated were DELSOL, HELIOS, Sol Trace, and Tonatiuh. All are available for free from their respective developers. DELSOL and HELIOS both use a convolution of the sunshape and optical errors for rapid calculation of flux profiles on the receiver surfaces. Sol Trace and Tonatiuh use ray-tracing methods to determine reflected solar rays on the receiver surfaces and construct flux profiles. We found the ray-tracing tools, although slower in computation speed, to be more flexible for modeling complex receiver geometries, whereas DELSOL and HELIOS were limited to standard receiver geometries. We provide an example of using Sol Trace for modeling non-conventional receiver geometries. We also list the strengths and deficiencies of the tools to show tool preference depending on the modeling and design needs.

AB A growing body of literature discusses the impacts of state-level policies on the development of distributed photovoltaic (PV) markets both in the implementing jurisdictions and spilling into others. Localities (municipalities and counties) are also increasing their involvement in policy development to support clean energy markets. There is a barrier to knowing the impacts of the policies within a jurisdiction as well as how the patchwork of local policies interacts to contribute to national PV market developments. This barrier can result in an inability for localities to implement effective and efficient local policies. This paper aims to reduce this barrier by (1) summarizing local activities related to solar in 151 localities as a means of determining trends in local PV policy action, (2) looking critically at several local policy environments in two states to determine if successful policy strategies or interesting observations warrant further investigation on the impacts of local policy, and (3) outlining the challenges of and opportunities for developing improved data for supporting an understanding of local policy impacts on the national market.

AB REopt is an energy planning platform offering concurrent, multiple technology integration and optimization capabilities to help clients meet their cost savings and energy performance goals. The REopt platform provides techno-economic decision support analysis throughout the energy planning process, from agency-level screening and macro planning to project development to energy asset operation. REopt employs an integrated approach to optimizing the energy costs of a site by considering electricity and thermal consumption, resource availability, complex tariff structures including time-of-use, demand and export rates, incentives, net metering, and interconnection limits. Formulated as a mixed integer linear program, REopt recommends an optimally sized mix of conventional and renewable energy, and energy storage technologies; estimates the net present value associated with implementing those technologies; and provides the cost-optimal dispatch strategy for operating them at maximum economic efficiency. The REopt platform can be customized to address a variety of energy optimization scenarios including policy, microgrid, and operational energy applications. This paper presents the REopt techno-economic model along with two examples of recently completed analysis projects.

AB Increased renewable generation on the grid along with market deregulation has resulted in a significant increase in the cycling of coal and gas-fired power plant. This increase in cycling will result in increased wear-and-tear costs for units that were not traditionally designed for cycling. Asset owners can make operational changes to mitigate the wear-and-tear impact or alternatively retrofit existing units for improved flexibility. With retrofits, these plants can provide increased operational flexibility, or in other swords cycle more, but this comes at an initial cost. On the other hand, increased flexibility in terms of faster starts, better turndowns and ramp rates also provides opportunity for the asset owners to recover their costs in the market. This paper evaluates the operational, as well as cost-benefit of retrofitting power plants for flexibility using a portfolio of generation resources in North America.

AB Increasing number of cores in parallel computer systems are allowing scientific simulations to be executed with increasing spatial and temporal granularity. However, this also implies that increasing larger-sized datasets need to be output, stored, managed, and then visualized and/or analyzed using a variety of methods. In examining the possibility of using compression to accelerate all of these steps, we focus on two important questions: "Can compression help save time when data is output from, or input into, a parallel program?", and "How can a scientist's effort in using compression with a parallel program be minimized?". We focus on PnetCDF, and show how transparent compression can be supported, thus allowing an existing simulation program to start outputting and storing data in a compressed fashion, and similarly, allow a data analysis application to read compressed data. We address challenges in supporting compression when parallel writes are being performed.
In our experiments, we first analyze the effects of using compression with microbenchmarks, and then, continue our evaluation using a scientific simulation application, and two data analysis applications. While we obtain up to a factor of 2 improvement in performance for microbenchmarks, the execution time of simulation application is improved up to 22%, and the maximum speedup of data analysis applications is 1.83 (with an average speedup of 1.36).

ID PROTOCOLS
AB Checkpoint/Restart is an indispensable fault tolerance technique commonly used by high-performance computing applications that run continuously for hours or days at a time. However, even with state-of-the-art checkpoint/restart techniques, high failure rates at large scale will limit application efficiency. To alleviate the problem, we consider using burst buffers. Burst buffers are dedicated storage resources positioned between the compute nodes and the parallel file system, and this new tier within the storage hierarchy fills the performance gap between node-local storage and parallel file systems. With burst buffers, an application can quickly store checkpoints with increased reliability. In this work, we explore how burst buffers can improve efficiency compared to using only node-local storage. To fully exploit the bandwidth of burst buffers, we develop a user-level InfiniBand-based file system (IBIO). We also develop performance models for coordinated and uncoordinated checkpoint/restart strategies, and we apply those models to investigate the best checkpoint strategy using burst buffers on future large-scale systems.

AB Infrastructure clouds revolutionized the way in which we approach resource procurement by providing an easy way to lease compute and storage resources on short notice, for a short amount of time, and on a pay-as-you-go basis. This new opportunity, however, introduces new performance trade-offs. Making the right choices in leveraging different types of storage available in the cloud is particularly important for applications that depend on managing large amounts of data within and across clouds. An increasing number of such applications conform to a pattern in which data processing relies on streaming the data to a compute platform where a set of similar operations is repeatedly applied to independent chunks of data. This pattern is evident in virtual observatories such as the Ocean Observatory Initiative, in cases when new data is evaluated against existing features in geospatial computations or when experimental data is processed as a series of time events. In this paper, we propose two strategies for efficiently implementing such streaming in the cloud and evaluate them in the context of an ATLAS application processing experimental data. Our results show that choosing the right cloud configuration can improve overall application performance by as much as three times.

ID BANDWIDTH ALLOCATION; NETWORKS
AB Data generated by experimental, simulation, and observational science is growing exponentially. The resulting datasets are often transported over wide-area networks for storage, analysis, or visualization. Network bandwidth, which is not increasing at the same rate as dataset sizes, is becoming a key obstacle to data-driven sciences.
In this paper, we focus on how bandwidth allocation can be controlled at the level of a protocol such as GridFTP, in view of goals such as maintaining certain priorities or performing scheduling with specified objectives. In particular, we explore how GridFTP transfer performance can be controlled by using parallelism and concurrency. We find that concurrency turns out to be a more powerful control knob than is parallelism. For a source where most bandwidth is consumed by transfers to a small number of other destinations, we build a model for each destination's achieved throughput in terms of its concurrency and total concurrency (over GridFTP transfers) to other major destinations. We then enhance this model by including an indicator of the time-varying external load, using multiple ways to measure this external load.
We study the effectiveness of the proposed models in controlling the bandwidth allocation. After evaluating the numerous combinations of models and methods of measuring external load, we narrow in on the four best-performing ones, based on both their validation results and their applicability. After extensive testing of these four approaches, we find that they can obtain desired bandwidth allocations with a mean(median) error rate of 19.8%(13.8%), with 38% of the errors in our benchmark tests being less than 10% and 54% of them being less than 15%.

AB As high-end systems move toward exascale sizes, a new model of scientific inquiry being developed is one in which online data analytics run concurrently with the high end simulations producing data outputs. Goals are to gain rapid insights into the ongoing scientific processes, assess their scientific validity, and/or initiate corrective or supplementary actions by launching additional computations when needed. The Flexpath system presented in this paper addresses the fundamental problem of how to structure and efficiently implement the communications between high end simulations and concurrently running online data analytics, the latter comprised of componentized dynamic services and service pipelines.
Using a type-based publish/subscribe approach, Flexpath encourages diversity by permitting analytics services to differ in their computational and scaling characteristics and even in their internal execution models. Flexpath uses direct and MxN connections between interacting services to reduce data movements, to allow for runtime connectivity changes to accommodate component arrivals/departures, and to support the multiple underlying communication protocols used for analytics workflows in which simulation outputs are processed by analytics services residing on the same nodes where they are generated, on the same machine, and/or on attached or remote analytics engines. This paper describes the design and implementation of Flexpath, and evaluates it with two widely used scientific applications and their associated data analytics methods.

ID FLOATING-POINT DATA; VISUALIZATION
AB Though an abundance of novel "data transformation" technologies have been developed (such as compression, level-of-detail, layout optimization, and indexing), there remains a notable gap in the adoption of such services by scientific applications. In response, we develop an in situ data transformation framework in the ADIOS I/O middleware with a "plugin" interface, thus greatly simplifying both the deployment and use of data transform services in scientific applications. Our approach ensures user-transparency, runtime-configurability, compatibility with existing I/O optimizations, and the potential for exploiting read-optimizing transforms (such as level-of-detail) to achieve I/O reduction.
We demonstrate use of our framework with the QLG simulation at up to 8,192 cores on the leadership-class Titan supercomputer, showing negligible overhead. We also explore the read performance implications of data transforms with respect to parameters such as chunk size, access pattern, and the "opacity" of different transform methods including compression and level-of-detail.

AB The ever-growing gap between the computation and I/O is one of the fundamental challenges for future computing systems. This computation-I/O gap is even larger for modern large scale high-performance systems due to their state-of-the-art yet decades long architecture: the compute and storage resources form two cliques that are interconnected with shared networking infrastructure. This paper presents a distributed storage middleware, called HyCache+, right on the compute nodes, which allows I/O to effectively leverage the high bi-section bandwidth of the high-speed interconnect of massively parallel high-end computing systems. HyCache+ provides the POSIX interface to end users with the memory-class I/O throughput and latency, and transparently swap the cached data with the existing slow-speed but high-capacity networked attached storage. HyCache+ has the potential to achieve both high performance and low-cost large capacity, the best of both worlds. To further improve the caching performance from the perspective of the global storage system, we propose a 2-phase mechanism to cache the hot data for parallel applications, called 2-Layer Scheduling (2LS), which minimizes the file size to be transferred between compute nodes and heuristically replaces files in the cache. We deploy HyCache+ on the IBM BlueGene/P supercomputer, and observe two orders of magnitude faster I/O throughput than the default GPFS parallel file system. Furthermore, the proposed heuristic caching approach shows 29X speedup over the traditional LRU algorithm.

ID CLOUD
AB FermiCloud is a private cloud developed by the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory for scientific workflows. The Cloud Bursting module of the FermiCloud enables the FermiCloud, when more computational resources are needed, to automatically launch virtual machines to available resources such as public clouds. One of the main challenges in developing the cloud bursting module is to decide when and where to launch a VM so that all resources are most effectively and efficiently utilized and the system performance is optimized.
However, based on FermiCloud's system operational data, the VM launching overhead is not a constant. It varies with physical resource (CPU, memory, I/O device) utilization at the time when a VM is launched. Hence, to make judicious decisions as to when and where a VM should be launched, a VM launch overhead reference model is needed. The paper is to develop a VM launch overhead reference model based on operational data we have obtained on FermiCloud and uses the reference model to guide the cloud bursting process.

DE Virtualization; Cloud; Checkpointing
AB Cloud Computing environments rely heavily on system-level virtualization. This is due to the inherent benefits of virtualization including fault tolerance through checkpoint/restart (C/R) mechanisms. Because clouds are the abstraction of large datacenters and large datacenters have a higher potential for failure, it is imperative that a C/R mechanism for such an environment provide minimal latency as well as a small checkpoint file size. Recently, there has been much research into C/R with respect to virtual machines (VM) providing excellent solutions to reduce either checkpoint latency or checkpoint file size. However, these approaches do not provide both. This paper presents a method of checkpointing VMs by utilizing virtual machine introspection (VMI). Through the usage of VMI, we are able to determine which pages of memory within the guest are used or free and are better able to reduce the amount of pages written to disk during a checkpoint. We have validated this work by using various benchmarks to measure the latency along with the checkpoint size. With respect to checkpoint file size, our approach results in file sizes within 24% or less of the actual used memory within the guest. Additionally, the checkpoint latency of our approach is up to 52% faster than KVM's default method.

AB The data-driven task parallelism execution model can support parallel programming models that are well suited for large-scale distributed-memory parallel computing, for example, simulations and analysis pipelines running on clusters and clouds. We describe a novel compiler intermediate representation and optimizations for this execution model, including adaptions of standard techniques alongside novel techniques. These techniques are applied to Swift/T, a high-level scripting language for flexible data flow composition of functions, which may be serial or use lower-level parallel programming models such as MPI and OpenMP. This paper presents preliminary results, indicating that our compiler optimizations reduce communication overhead by 70% to 93% on distributed-memory systems.

AB It has been widely accepted that software virtualization has a big negative impact on high-performance computing (HPC) application performance. This work explores the potential use of Infiniband hardware virtualization in an OpenNebula cloud towards the efficient support of MPI-based workloads. We have implemented, deployed, and tested an Infiniband network on the FermiCloud private Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) cloud. To avoid software virtualization towards minimizing the virtualization overhead, we employed a technique called Single Root Input/Output Virtualization (SRIOV). Our solution spanned modifications to the Linux's Hypervisor as well as the OpenNebula manager. We evaluated the performance of the hardware virtualization on up to 56 virtual machines connected by up to 8 DDR Infiniband network links, with micro-benchmarks (latency and bandwidth) as well as with a MPI-intensive application (the HPL Linpack benchmark).

AB Resilience in the information sciences is notoriously difficult to define much less to measure. But in mechanical engineering, the resilience of a substance is mathematically well-defined as an area under the stress-strain curve. We combined inspiration from mechanics of materials and axioms from queuing theory in an attempt to define resilience precisely for information systems. We first examine the meaning of resilience in linguistic and engineering terms and then translate these definitions to information sciences. As a general assessment of our approach's fitness, we quantify how resilience may be measured in a simple queuing system. By using a very simple model we allow clear application of established theory while being flexible enough to apply to many other engineering contexts in information science and cyber security. We tested our definitions of resilience via simulation and analysis of networked queuing systems. We conclude with a discussion of the results and make recommendations for future work.

AB Power system disturbances are inherently complex and can be attributed to a wide range of sources, including both natural and man-made events. Currently, the power system operators are heavily relied on to make decisions regarding the causes of experienced disturbances and the appropriate course of action as a response. In the case of cyber-attacks against a power system, human judgment is less certain since there is an overt attempt to disguise the attack and deceive the operators as to the true state of the system. To enable the human decision maker, we explore the viability of machine learning as a means for discriminating types of power system disturbances, and focus specifically on detecting cyber-attacks where deception is a core tenet of the event. We evaluate various machine learning methods as disturbance discriminators and discuss the practical implications for deploying machine learning systems as an enhancement to existing power system architectures.

ID DESIGN
AB Operators of critical processes, such as nuclear power production, must contend with highly complex systems, procedures, and regulations. Developing human-machine interfaces (HMIs) that better support operators is a high priority for ensuring the safe and reliable operation of critical processes. Human factors engineering (HFE) provides a rich and mature set of tools for evaluating the performance of HMIs, but the set of tools for developing and designing HMIs is still in its infancy. Here we propose that Microsoft Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) is well suited for many roles in the research and development of HMIs for process control.

AB A computerized operator support system (COSS) is a collection of resilient software technologies to assist operators in monitoring overall nuclear power plant performance and making timely, informed decisions on appropriate control actions for the projected plant condition. The COSS provides rapid assessments, computations, and recommendations to reduce workload and augment operator judgment and decision-making during fast-moving, complex events. A prototype COSS for a chemical volume control system at a nuclear power plant has been developed in order to demonstrate the concept and provide a test bed for further research. The development process identified four underlying elements necessary for the prototype, which consist of a digital alarm system, computer-based procedures, piping and instrumentation diagram system representations, and a recommender module for mitigation actions. An operational prototype resides at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) using the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Light Water Reactor Sustainability (LWRS) Human Systems Simulation Laboratory (HSSL). Several human-machine interface (HMI) considerations are identified and incorporated in the prototype during this initial round of development.

AB "Resilience" describes how systems operate at an acceptable level of normalcy despite disturbances or threats. In this paper we first consider the cognitive, cyber-physical interdependencies inherent in critical infrastructure systems and how resilience differs from reliability to mitigate these risks. Terminology and metrics basis are provided to integrate the cognitive, cyber-physical aspects that should be considered when defining solutions for resilience. A practical approach is taken to roll this metrics basis up to system integrity and business case metrics that establish "proper operation" and "impact." A notional chemical processing plant is the use case for demonstrating how the system integrity metrics can be applied to establish performance, and as well, the effects on the process that roll into the business case.

AB Cyber-attacks continue to pose a major threat to existing critical infrastructure. Although suggestions for defensive strategies abound, Moving Target Defense (MTD) has only recently gained attention as a possible solution for mitigating cyber-attacks. The current work proposes a MTD technique that provides enhanced security through a rotation of multiple operating systems. The MTD solution developed in this research utilizes existing technology to provide a feasible dynamic defense solution that can be deployed easily in a real networking environment. In addition, the system we developed was tested extensively for effectiveness using CORE Impact Pro (CORE), Nmap, and manual penetration tests. The test results showed that platform diversity and rotation offer improved security. In addition, the likelihood of a successful attack decreased proportionally with time between rotations.

AB We present the first measuremenst of adhesion between two micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) surfaces, fully fabricated with boron doped ultrananocrystalline diamond (B-UNCD). This research allows us to explore the potential of conductive UNCD MEMS for the solution of issues like adhesion and friction in micro-devices and describe with accuracy the effects involved. By means of standard lithographic techniques, we have fabricated a diamond micro thermal actuator (chevron type), which is used as a platform for tribological testing. A peculiar effect has been observed in the adhesion phenomenon of UNCD. It involves with high probability, an interaction between hydrocarbon/amorphous carbon layers (a-C) that cover the two diamond contacting surfaces. The as-etched device shows a 'chewing-gum' effect in the adhesion curve, probably due to the formation of hydrocarbon/a-C chains after the interaction of the surfaces. This effect disappears when the device is treated in oxygen plasma and the hydrocarbon/a-C is removed. The study of this phenomenon will be followed by more accurate analysis and atomistic simulation and the results will be compared with nitrogen-incorporated UNCD (N-UNCD) fabricated devices.

Implementation of SBE has shown to increase vulnerability tolerance in a particular software system by introducing software diversity and redundant version shuffling to obfuscate the system to attackers. With this in mind, this paper nominates attack surface, confidentiality, integrity, availability, and survivability as the critical components of cyber resiliency, and a notional example is provided to demonstrate the components application and aggregation.

AB Building complex computational models of the spread of epidemics is a problem that has seen renewed interest in recent years. Such models are being used for understanding real-time disease evolution prediction and are also proving useful in the prevention, monitoring and control of contagious diseases. There is a pressing need to ensure reliability of epidemiological models since they are widely used in safety-critical applications. In this paper, we present a new spatiotemporal specification language, EpiSpec, for describing detailed properties of agent-based computational epidemiological models. We describe the formal syntax of EpiSpec and demonstrate its use by describing various spatio-temporal properties related to disease evolution, and propose the use of statistical model checking as an algorithmic technique for verification and validation of large computational epidemiological models.

ID HYBRID CACHE
AB Use of non-volatile memory (NVM) devices such as resistive RAM (ReRAM) and spin transfer torque RAM (STT-RAM) for designing on-chip caches holds the promise of providing a high-density, low-leakage alternative to SRAM. However, low write endurance of NVMs, along with the write-variation introduced by existing cache management schemes significantly limits the lifetime of NVM caches. We present LastingNVCache, a technique for improving the cache lifetime by mitigating the intra-set write variation. LastingNVCache works on the key idea that by periodically flushing a frequently-written data-item, next time the block can be made to load into a cold block in the set. Through this, the future writes to that data-item can be redirected from a hot block to a cold block, which leads to improvement in the cache lifetime. Microarchitectural simulations have shown that LastingNVCache provides 6.36X, 9.79X, and 10.94X improvement in lifetime for single, dual and quad-core systems, respectively. Also, its implementation overhead is small and it outperforms a recently proposed technique for improving lifetime of NVM caches.

DE mobile agents; heading; random walk; cover time
ID SENSOR NETWORKS
AB Cover time measures the time (or number of steps) required for a mobile agent to visit each node in a network (graph) at least once. A short cover time is important for search or foraging applications that require mobile agents to quickly inspect or monitor nodes in a network, such as providing situational awareness or security. Speed can be achieved if details about the graph are known or if the agent maintains a history of visited nodes; however, these requirements may not be feasible for agents with limited resources, they are difficult in dynamic graph topologies, and they do not easily scale to large networks. This paper introduces a set-based form of heading (directional bias) that allows an agent to more efficiently explore any connected graph, static or dynamic. When deciding the next node to visit, agents are discouraged from visiting nodes that neighbor both their previous and current locations. Modifying a traditional movement method, e.g., random walk, with this concept encourages an agent to move toward nodes that are less likely to have been previously visited, reducing cover time. Simulation results with grid, scale-free, and minimum distance graphs demonstrate heading can consistently reduce cover time as compared to non-heading movement techniques.

AB Clouds are increasingly being used for running data-intensive scientific applications. Data-intensive science applications need performance, scalability and reliability. However, these can be hard to achieve in cloud environments. Intelligent strategies are required to obtain better performance, scalability and reliability on cloud platforms. In this paper, we propose a set of pipelining strategies to effectively utilize provisioned cloud resources. Our experiments on the ExoGENI cloud testbed demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach in increasing performance and reducing failures.

ID INDEPENDENT TASKS
AB This corresponds to the material in the invited keynote presentation by H. J. Siegel, summarizing the research in [1], [2].
We address the problem of assigning dynamically-arriving tasks to machines in a heterogeneous computing environment. These machines execute a workload composed of different tasks, where the tasks have diverse computational requirements. Each task has a utility function associated with it that represents the value of completing that task, and this utility decreases the longer it takes a task to complete. The goal of our resource manager is to maximize the sum of the utilities earned by all tasks arriving in the system over a given interval of time, while satisfying an energy constraint. We describe example energy-aware resource management methods to accomplish this goal, and compare their performance. We also study the biobjective problem of maximizing system utility and minimizing the system energy consumption. This analysis technique allows system administrators to investigate the trade-offs between these conflicting goals.

AB Although the tensile behavior of shape memory alloys (SMAs) is relatively well understood, the effects of other modes of loading on SMA behavior are still unknown. To examine the influence of loading and specimen geometry on structural behavior and phase transformation morphology, this work presents an experimental characterization of commercially-available superelastic NiTi rods and tubes under tensile, compressive, pure bending and column buckling loading. At room temperature and under isothermal loading conditions, the mechanical response for each loading configuration and structural geometry is measured and stereo digital image correlation is used to capture local displacement and strain phenomena (such as strain localization and propagating phase boundaries).
It is found that the length and cross-sectional geometry of NiTi structures affects the nature of stress-induced phase transformation; in particular, transformation induced strain localization. During uniaxial tension, the rod specimens exhibit strain localization and propagating phase transformation fronts along well-defined load plateaus, and phase boundaries manifest as diffuse propagating necks. The tube specimens also exhibit localization/propagation phenomena, but fronts consist of distinct angled finger-like features due to the relatively thin-walled cross-section. During uniaxial compression, both forms exhibit (now well-known) tension-compression asymmetry in their mechanical responses, no propagating fronts are observed, and distinct load plateaus are absent. During pure bending, the moment-curvature responses of both forms exhibit plateaus during localizing forward and reverse transformations. In the case of the rod, high curvature localizes and propagates along the specimen; whereas, finger-like high strain regions develop along the tensile side of the tube. During column buckling, the structures are loaded into the post-buckling regime yet recover their straight forms upon unloading. Localization is observed, but only for high length/diameter aspect ratio tubes and has little affect on the mechanical response. Therefore, due to the varying phase transformation behaviors observed, understanding geometric and material effects on phase transformation, along with the resulting effects on the material response, is necessary to predict SMA beam behavior.

DE Energy-water nexus; Climate change; Electricity; Thermal cooling
AB Climate change has the potential to exacerbate water availability concerns for thermal power plant cooling, which is responsible for 41% of U.S. water withdrawals. This analysis describes an initial link between climate, water, and electricity systems using the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) Regional Energy Deployment System (ReEDS) electricity system capacity expansion model. Average surface water projections from Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 3 (CMIP3) data are applied to surface water rights available to new generating capacity in ReEDS, and electric sector growth is compared with and without climate-influenced water rights. The mean climate projection has only a small impact on national or regional capacity growth and water use because most regions have sufficient unappropriated or previously retired water rights to offset climate impacts. Climate impacts are notable in southwestern states, which experience reduced water rights purchases and a greater share of rights acquired from wastewater and other higher-cost water resources. The electric sector climate impacts demonstrated herein establish a methodology to be later exercised with more extreme climate scenarios and a more rigorous representation of legal and physical water availability.

AB Water consumption is an important consideration when evaluating technologies for carbon capture and storage (CCS). It may in fact become a critical factor in certain regions where water is increasingly a source of conflict. For this reason, water consumption has the potential to become a challenging obstacle to adoption of CCS technologies. This analysis seeks to improve understanding of relative water costs of different CCS technology options. It also helps to identify areas where water use may in fact become a challenge and reveal opportunities for technological improvements that can help minimize these challenges.
A life cycle assessment approach was utilized to analyze both the water consumption from carbon capture and storage projects. While there have been previous analyses that have looked at the direct water consumption for some capture processes, there have been few studies that have taken a detailed look at water consumption throughout the complete life cycle of the of electricity production with CCS. This effort expands the system boundaries beyond those of previous analysis while evaluating a range of system configurations to facilitate technology comparison.
The range of system configurations considered in this analysis included both pre and post combustion capture systems and multiple sequestration scenarios. The system boundaries for the analysis include fuel production, fuel transport, combustion, capture, CO2 transport, and storage. Water consumption for conventional fossil fuel systems are also calculated for comparison purposes.
The results show that while all carbon capture technology pathways result in a net increase in water consumption relative to conventional coal generation, the choice of technology, especially capture technology, can play a significant role in minimizing the increase in water consumption. Integrated gasification combined cycle coal plants with carbon capture were found to be significantly more water efficient than either conventional power plants with post combustion capture or plants utilizing oxy-combustion processes. Also, while other stages of the life cycle do consume water, the volumes were small relative to the power plant operations and capture stages.

AB The future distribution grid has complex analysis needs, which may not be met with the existing processes and tools. In addition there is a growing number of measured and grid model data sources becoming available. For these sources to be useful they must be accurate, and interpreted correctly. Data accuracy is a key barrier to the growth of the future distribution grid. A key goal for California, and the United States, is increasing the renewable penetration on the distribution grid. To increase this penetration measured and modeled representations of generation must be accurate and validated, giving distribution planners and operators confidence in their performance. This study will review the current state of these software and modeling barriers and opportunities for the future distribution grid.

AB The rate at which fuel is injected into the cylinder of a direct injection Diesel engine has significant implications for the ensuing mixture formation and combustion processes. Advances in fuel injector technology enable a variety of advanced injection strategies, particularly very closely coupled injection events. In this work, a Moehwald HDA injection quantity and rate measuring unit is used to investigate the injection rates obtained with a pre-production solenoid injector with a fast acting, pressure-balanced control valve using a blend of n-hexadecane and heptamethylnonane (DPRF58). The effects of digital signal filtering on the rate shape and injected mass are investigated for a single injection. Additionally, the effects of physical parameters such as fuel and measurement chamber temperature, axial clamping force on the injector, high pressure line length, and solenoid current pull up time on the rate shape are investigated. The primary purpose of these simple parameter variations is to establish whether or not they have an impact on the measured injection rate traces and/or total measured injected masses. At each dwell time, the rates of injection are compared between the three injectors tested. These results show that these pre-production injectors can operate with very short dwell times while the injection rate curves indicate distinct pilot and main injection events and an influence of dwell on the rate shape of the main injection. Testing with PRF, a blend of n-heptane and isooctane, shows that while rates of injection are comparable to those obtained with the DPRF for a single injection, they are dramatically different for multiple injections. This has significant implications for the optical diagnostic techniques that may be employed to study the effects of multiple injections on the mixture formation process.

AB Gasoline compression ignition concepts with the majority of the fuel being introduced early in the cycle are known as partially premixed combustion (PPC). Previous research on single- and multi-cylinder engines has shown that PPC has the potential for high thermal efficiency with low NOx and soot emissions. A variety of fuel injection strategies has been proposed in the literature. These injection strategies aim to create a partially stratified charge to simultaneously reduce NOx and soot emissions while maintaining some level of control over the combustion process through the fuel delivery system. The impact of the direct injection strategy to create a premixed charge of fuel and air has not previously been explored, and its impact on engine efficiency and emissions is not well understood. This paper explores the effect of sweeping the direct injected pilot timing from -91 degrees to -324 degrees ATDC, which is just after the exhaust valve closes for the engine used in this study. During the sweep, the pilot injection consistently contained 65% of the total fuel (based on command duration ratio), and the main injection timing was adjusted slightly to maintain combustion phasing near top dead center. A modern four cylinder, 1.9 L diesel engine with a variable geometry turbocharger, high pressure common rail injection system, wide included angle injectors, and variable swirl actuation was used in this study. The pistons were modified to an open bowl configuration suitable for highly premixed combustion modes. The stock diesel injection system was unmodified, and the gasoline fuel was doped with a lubricity additive to protect the high pressure fuel pump and the injectors. The study was conducted at a fixed speed/load condition of 2000 rpm and 4.0 bar brake mean effective pressure (BMEP). The pilot injection timing sweep was conducted at different intake manifold pressures, swirl levels, and fuel injection pressures. The gasoline used in this study has relatively high fuel reactivity with a research octane number of 68. The results of this experimental campaign indicate that the highest brake thermal efficiency and lowest emissions are achieved simultaneously with the earliest pilot injection timings (i.e., during the intake stroke).

AB Gasoline Compression Ignition (GCI) is a promising single-fuel advanced combustion concept for increased efficiency and reduced emissions in comparison with current conventional combustion modes. Gasoline fuels are advantageous in premixed combustion concepts because of their increased volatility and reduced reactivity compared to diesel. These qualities help reduce emissions of particulate matter (PM) and oxides of nitrogen (NO), while making combustion phasing (and therefore combustion noise reduction) easier to manage. One of the challenges of using a gasoline with an anti-knock index (AKI) of 87 in a premixed combustion concept is being able to achieve stable low load operation. (Note that AKI is equivalent to (RON + MON)/2.) With such small injection quantities of a relatively more volatile and less reactive fuel than diesel, the injection timing of minimum load fueling needs to be early enough to allow the auto-ignition chemistry enough time, but late enough to keep the fuel from over-mixing and losing ignition propensity. The objective of this study was to investigate the advantages and disadvantages of reducing the injector nozzles' inclusion angle from 148 to 1200 on the combustion and emissions performance of GCI at 850 RPM and low load. To assess these effects, minimum fueling injection timing sweeps were performed with a 3% coefficient of variance of indicated mean effective pressure with each injector nozzle angle at 500 and 250 bar injection pressure. The results from these experiments revealed that both reduced injector nozzle angle and reduced injection pressure increased ignition propensity and allowed for reduced fueling and stable low load extension to 1 bar brake mean effective pressure using 87 AKI gasoline without any external boosting or heating. Combustion characteristics (such as noise) and emissions are discussed.

AB This paper discusses the characteristics of EGR dilute GDI engines in terms of combustion stability. A combined approach consisting of RANS numerical simulations integrated with experimental engine testing is used to analyze the effect of the ignition source on flame propagation under dilute operating conditions.
A programmable spark-based ignition system is compared to a production spark system in terms of cyclic variability and ultimately indicated efficiency. 3D-CFD simulations are carried out for multiple cycles with the goal of establishing correlations between the characteristics of the ignition system and flame propagation as well as cycle-to-cycle variations. Numerical results are compared to engine data in terms of in-cylinder pressure traces.
The results show that an improved control over the energy released to the fluid surrounding the spark domain during the ignition process has beneficial effects on combustion stability. This allows extending the dilution tolerance for fuel/air mixtures. Although affected by cyclic variability, numerical results show good qualitative agreement with experimental data. The result is a simple but promising approach for relatively quick assessment of stability improvements from advanced and alternative ignition strategies.

AB Gasoline compression ignition (GCI) is a low temperature combustion (LTC) concept that has been gaining increasing interest over the recent years owing to its potential to achieve diesel-like thermal efficiencies with significantly reduced engine-out nitrogen oxides (NOX) and soot emissions compared to diesel engines. In this work, closed-cycle computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations are performed of this combustion mode using a sector mesh in an effort to understand effects of model settings on simulation results. One goal of this work is to provide recommendations for grid resolution, combustion model, chemical kinetic mechanism, and turbulence model to accurately capture experimental combustion characteristics. Grid resolutions ranging from 0.7 mm to 0 1 mm minimum cell sizes were evaluated in conjunction with both Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) based turbulence models. Solution of chemical kinetics using the multi-zone approach is evaluated against the detailed approach of solving chemistry in every cell. The relatively small primary reference fuel (PRF) mechanism (48 species) used in this study is also evaluated against a larger 312-species gasoline mechanism.
Based on these studies the following model settings are chosen keeping in mind both accuracy and computation costs 0.175 mm minimum cell size grid, RANS turbulence model, 48-species PRF mechanism, and multi-zone chemistry solution with bin limits of 5 K in temperature and 0.05 in equivalence ratio. With these settings, the performance of the CFD model is evaluated against experimental results corresponding to a low load start of injection (SOI) timing sweep. The model is then exercised to investigate the effect of SOI on combustion phasing with constant intake valve closing (IVC) conditions and fueling over a range of SOI timings to isolate the impact of SOT on charge preparation and ignition. Simulation results indicate that there is an optimum SOI timing, in this case 30 30 degrees aTDC (after top dead center), which results in the most stable combustion. Advancing injection with respect to this point leads to significant fuel mass burning in the colder squish region, leading to retarded phasing and ultimately misfire for SOT timings earlier than -42 degrees aTDC. On the other hand, retarding injection beyond this optimum timing results in reduced residence time available for gasoline ignition kinetics, and also leads to retarded phasing, with misfire at SOT timings later than -15 degrees aTDC.

ID MANAGEMENT STRATEGY; DESIGN
AB Hybrid electric vehicles have shown great potential for enhancing fuel economy and reducing emissions. Deriving a power management control policy to distribute the power demanded by the driver optimally to the available subsystems (e.g., the internal combustion engine, motor, generator, and battery) has been a challenging control problem. One of the main aspects of the power management control algorithms is concerned with the self-sustainability of the electrical path, which must be guaranteed for the entire driving cycle. This paper considers the problem of identifying online the power required by the battery to maintain the state of charge within a range of the target value. An algorithm is presented that realizes how much power the engine needs to provide to the battery so that self-sustainability of the electrical path is maintained.

AB A mixture of n-dodecane and m-xylene is investigated as a diesel fuel surrogate for compression ignition engine applications. Compared to neat n-dodecane, this binary mixture is more representative of diesel fuel because it contains an alkyl-benzene which represents an important chemical class present in diesel fuels. A detailed multi-component mechanism for n-dodecane and m-xylene was developed by combining a previously developed n-dodecane mechanism with a recently developed mechanism for xylenes. The xylene mechanism is shown to reproduce experimental ignition data from a rapid compression machine and shock tube, speciation data from the jet stirred reactor and flame speed data. This combined mechanism was validated by comparing predictions from the model with experimental data for ignition in shock tubes and for reactivity in a flow reactor. The combined mechanism, consisting of 2885 species and 11754 reactions, was reduced to a skeletal mechanism consisting 163 species and 887 reactions for 3D diesel engine simulations. The mechanism reduction was performed using directed relation graph (DRG) with expert knowledge (DRG-X) and DRG-aided sensitivity analysis (DRGASA) at a fixed fuel composition of 77% of n-dodecane and 23% m-xylene by volume. The sample space for the reduction covered pressure of 1 - 80 bar, equivalence ratio of 0.5 - 2.0, and initial temperature of 700 - 1600 K for ignition. The skeletal mechanism was compared with the detailed mechanism for ignition and flow reactor predictions. Finally, the skeletal mechanism was validated against a spray flame dataset under diesel engine conditions documented on the Engine Combustion Network (ECN) website. These multidimensional simulations were performed using a Representative Interactive Flame (RIF) turbulent combustion model. Encouraging results were obtained compared to the experiments with regards to the predictions of ignition delay and lift-off length at different ambient temperatures.

AB State-of-the art engine technologies are susceptible to high cycle-to-cycle variability. Researchers have successfully used Large Eddy Simulations (LES) to capture this cyclic variation with CFD. However, LES is computationally expensive. The current work demonstrates that using RANS turbulence models can also exhibit cyclic variation if the simulation approach minimizes numerical viscosity. This is accomplished by using fine mesh resolution, non-morphing mesh motion, higher-order accurate numerical schemes, and small timesteps.
RANS turbulence models act to destroy time-varying smaller eddies and replace the mixing effects of these eddies with enhanced viscosity. In an IC engine, larger-scale eddies can change from cycle to cycle, and may not be small enough to be dampened out by the RANS turbulence viscosity. By minimizing the numerical viscosity, the length scale at which eddies are destroyed is reduced and more structure is seen in the simulated flowfield. If the injection and combustion strategy in an engine is susceptible to cyclic changes in these large-scale eddies, then cyclic variation will be apparent in the simulation when using a RANS model.
This work will also demonstrate that perturbations in initial conditions, boundary conditions, or numerical settings can give run-to-run variability in simulation consistent with cycle-to-cycle variability in an actual engine.
For the current work, three studies are performed to show that the use of a RANS turbulence model does not always yield an ensemble average result. One of the studies is a basic cylinder-in-cross-flow case. The other two studies are for engines. One of the engine studies focuses on global mixing parameters and compares to TCC (Transparent Combustion Chamber) experimental data. The other engine study looks at cycle-to-cycle variation in combustion predictions.

AB A state-of-the-art spray modeling methodology, recently presented by Senecal et al. [1, 2, 3], is applied to Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of vaporizing sprays. Simulations of non-combusting Spray H (n-heptane fuel) from the Engine Combustion Network are performed. Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) cell sizes of 0.03125 mm to 0.25 mm are utilized to further demonstrate grid convergence of the Dynamic Structure LES model for diesel sprays.
Twenty-eight different realizations are simulated by changing the random number seed used in the spray sub-models. Multi-realization (ensemble) averaging, which has been shown to be necessary when comparing to local spray measurements, is performed. Global quantities such as liquid and vapor penetration are compared, as well as local mean mixture fraction and mixture fraction standard deviation. The results suggest that the current model does a reasonable job predicting the major features of the n-heptane spray when appropriate grid resolution is utilized.

AB Representative Interactive Flame let (RIF) and Detailed Chemistry based combustion models are two commonly used combustion models for non-premixed diesel engine simulations. RIF performs transient chemistry calculations on a one-dimensional grid based on the mixture fraction coordinate. Hence, the chemistry calculations are essentially decoupled from the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) grid. The detailed chemistry model, on the other hand, solves transient chemistry in the 3D CFD domain. An efficient parallelization strategy is used for the computation of the multiple flamelets RIF model. The multiple flamelets RIF and detailed chemistry combustion models are applied for modeling a constant volume spray combustion case and a diesel engine case, with a view to compare the differences between the two models. Results for ignition delay, flame lift-off length, cylinder pressure, and emissions are compared with experimental data. The effect of number of flamelets is evaluated. Finally, the effect of spray cooling is investigated based on the results from the RIF model and the detailed chemistry based combustion model.

AB The uniform strain hexahedral element mesh has long been a work horse for getting accurate and convergent answers in high deformation solid mechanics analyses. Obtaining an all-hexahedral mesh can be a difficult and time consuming process thus limiting the element's use in design phase computations. Unconstrained paving and plastering offers a technique to get an all-hexahedral mesh automatically but still can leave un-meshable voids [1]. While degenerated forms of the uniform strain hexahedral element such as the wedge have been used sparingly, they have garnered limited general acceptance. We present a more exhaustive numerical exploration of the degenerated hexes with the hope of encouraging their use to resolve the un-meshable voids. The results of patch tests are used to numerically demonstrate linear completeness of the degenerate elements. A manufactured solution analysis is then used to show optimal convergence rates for meshes containing degenerate elements. Additionally, applications to a torsion rod and high velocity impact are used to highlight the accuracy and applicability of degenerates for solving more complex problems.

AB The thermal conductivities of 1 mu m copper-niobium multilayer films of different period thicknesses are measured by time domain thermoreflectance at room temperature. The values for thermal conductivity are then used to calculate the thermal conductance between Cu/Nb interfaces using a series resistors model. Results show that Cu/Nb interface conductance increases with the decrease in period thickness reaching a value as high as 20 GWm(-2)K(-1) for a 1x1 Cu/Nb multilayer. At shorter period thicknesses, ballistic electron transport dominates the thermal transport across this interface resulting in high interface conductance. The results are well described by a model that accounts for both ballistic and diffusive transport of electrons. This model assumes that an electron on one side of a metal-metal multilayer may not scatter at the interface but rather move ballistically on to the adjacent material and scatter in the adjacent material.

DE finite element; irradiation; thermal jump; contact
AB The Thermal Hydraulics and Irradiation Engineering (THIE) Group at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) designs and builds capsules in which to irradiate advanced fuels and materials that are typically inserted into ORNL's High Flux Isotope Reactor. Experiments are designed to achieve a target temperature that ranges from 250 degrees C to 1200 degrees C. Most capsules do not have active temperature measurement or control, which puts an imperative on accurate temperature simulation. Temperature control in these capsules is accomplished by designing specific gaps between adjacent parts and filling the capsules with an inert gas: helium, neon, or argon.
Most any finite element solver will do an excellent job estimating temperatures within individual parts, but the simulation challenge for these complex, multi-body systems is to accurately predict the heat transfer through contact surfaces or interstitial gas gaps. The gas gaps are on the order of 150 mu m, so accurate simulation must include thermal expansion of the adjacent parts, the thermal jump effect on the part surfaces, and the possibility the parts will touch or break contact during expansion. This paper will discuss the limitations in thermal contact modeling in finite element modelers and the algorithms the THIE Group uses to overcome these limitations.

AB Heat transfer fluid (HTF) plays an important role in the efficiency and cost effectiveness of solar thermal collector. From several choices, Therminol VP-1 (eutectic mixture of diphenyl oxide and biphenyl) are successfully used as heat transfer fluid in the collector field of parabolic trough plants. This paper experimentally analyzes the buoyancy driven heat transfer performance of Therminol VP-1 in a square enclosure with uniformed heating from below and for a Rayleigh number up to 1.11x10(8). Thermophysical properties such as density, viscosity, and thermal conductivity of Therminol VP-1 were also measured experimentally. The results show that the density, viscosity, and thermal conductivity decrease with temperature within the measured temperature range 10-60 degrees C. The obtained convective heat transfer coefficient was lower than the De-Ionized (DI) water, whereas the dimensionless Nusselt number was observed higher than DI water, which is because of the low thermal conductivity (approximately 25% of DI water) of Therminol VP-1.

AB An enthalpy-based model of thermocline operation general to both single phase and encapsulated phase change filler materials was created in MATLAB. The method of characteristics is applied in space and time, mapping fluid temperature and filler enthalpy to a numerical grid, and in the case of a melting filler, allowing accurate tracking of phase state interfaces to fractional positions of the grid. Careful consideration of various possible heat transfer conditions along with placement of phase state interfaces in the numerical grid allows for extreme versatility and accuracy in model application. Input of specific fluid and filler properties, tank size, time of operation, and initial and boundary conditions returns a full representation to any desired amount of charge/discharge processes or cycles. The paper covers mathematical formulation, certain intricacies of numerical implementation, model verification, and the beginnings of application to prove proper operation and generality.

ID ENERGY-STORAGE
AB Nuclear energy could potentially be utilized in hybrid energy systems to produce synthetic fuels and feedstocks from indigenous carbon sources such as coal and biomass. First generation nuclear hybrid energy system (NHES) technology will most likely be based on conventional light water reactors (LWRs). However, these LWRs provide thermal energy at temperatures of approximately 300 degrees C, while the desired temperatures for many chemical processes are much higher. In order to realize the benefits of nuclear hybrid energy systems with the current LWR reactor fleets, selection and development of a complimentary temperature upgrading technology is necessary. This paper provides an initial assessment of technologies that may be well suited toward LWR outlet temperature upgrading for powering elevated temperature industrial and chemical processes during periods of off-peak power demand.
Chemical heat transformers (CHTs) are a technology with the potential to meet LWR temperature upgrading requirements for NHESs. CHTs utilize chemical heat of reaction to change the temperature at which selected heat sources supply or consume thermal energy. CHTs could directly utilize LWR heat output without intermediate mechanical or electrical power conversion operations and the associated thermodynamic losses. CHT thermal characteristics are determined by selection of the chemical working pair and operating conditions. This paper discusses the chemical working pairs applicable to LWR outlet temperature upgrading and the CHT operating conditions required for providing process heat in NHES applications.

AB In this paper, we present a resilience analysis of the impact of soft errors on CLAMR, a hydrodynamics mini-app for high performance computing (HPC). We utilize F-SEFI, a fine-grained fault injection tool, to inject faults into the kernel routines of CLAMR. We demonstrate visually the impact of these faults as they are either benign (have no impact on the results), cause silent data corruption (SDC), or cause the application to crash due to instabilities. We quantify the probability that an injected fault will cause CLAMR to transition to one of the above three states using F-SEFI. Finally, we explore the relationship between the application's fault characteristics and when the fault is injected in simulation time. Overall, we find that 17% and 24% of the faults propagate into SDC and crashes respectively.

AB Surface water is a primary concept of human experience but concepts are captured in cultures and languages in many different ways. Still, many commonalities exist due to the physical basis of many of the properties and categories. An abstract ontology of surface water features based only on those physical properties of landscape features has the best potential for serving as a foundational domain ontology for other more context-dependent ontologies. The Surface Water ontology design pattern was developed both for domain knowledge distillation and to serve as a conceptual building-block for more complex or specialized surface water ontologies. A fundamental distinction is made in this ontology between landscape features that act as containers (e.g., stream channels, basins) and the bodies of water (e.g., rivers, lakes) that occupy those containers. Concave (container) landforms semantics are specified in a Dry module and the semantics of contained bodies of water in a Wet module. The pattern is implemented in OWL, but Description Logic axioms and a detailed explanation is provided in this paper. The OWL ontology will be an important contribution to Semantic Web vocabulary for annotating surface water feature datasets. Also provided is a discussion of why there is a need to complement the pattern with other ontologies, especially the previously developed Surface Network pattern. Finally, the practical value of the pattern in semantic querying of surface water datasets is illustrated through an annotated geospatial dataset and sample queries using the classes of the Surface Water pattern.

AB Accurate evaluation of the performance of buildings participating in Demand Response (DR) programs is critical to the adoption and improvement of these programs. Typically, we calculate load sheds during DR events by comparing observed electric load against counterfactual predictions made using statistical baseline models. Many baseline models exist and these models can produce different shed estimates. Moreover, modelers implementing the same baseline model can make different modeling implementation choices, which may affect shed estimates. In this work, using real data, we analyze the effect of different modeling implementation choices on shed estimates. We focus on five issues: weather data source, resolution of data, methods for determining when buildings are occupied, methods for aligning building data with temperature data, and methods for power outage filtering. Results indicate sensitivity to the weather data source and data filtration methods as well as an immediate potential for automation of methods to choose building occupied modes.

AB Useful prediction of the kinematics, dynamics, and chemistry of a system relies on precision and accuracy in the quantification of component properties, operating mechanisms, and collected data. In an attempt to emphasize, rather than gloss over, the benefit of proper characterization to fundamental investigations of multiphase systems incorporating solid particles, a set of procedures were developed and implemented for the purpose of providing a revised methodology having the desirable attributes of reduced uncertainty, expanded relevance and detail, and higher throughput. Better, faster, cheaper characterization of multiphase systems result.
Methodologies are presented to characterize particle size, shape, size distribution, density (particle, skeletal and bulk), minimum fluidization velocity, void fraction, particle porosity, and assignment within the Geldart Classification. A novel form of the Ergun equation was used to determine the bulk void fractions and particle density. Accuracy of properties-characterization methodology was validated on materials of known properties prior to testing materials of unknown properties. Several of the standard present-day techniques were scrutinized and improved upon where appropriate. Validity, accuracy, and repeatability were assessed for the procedures presented and deemed higher than present-day techniques.
A database of over seventy materials has been developed to assist in model validation efforts and future designs.

AB In this paper, we consider the three dimensional flow of granular materials and a viscous fluid in a channel. We use Mixture Theory to treat this problem as a two-component system [1]: One component is the solid particles (granular materials), such as sand, coal particles or red blood cells; the solid particles are modeled as a generalized Reiner-Rivlin type fluid derived by Massoudi [2], which not only considers the effects of volume fraction but also has a viscosity which is shear rate dependent. The other component, the host fluid, is assumed to behave as a linear viscous fluid, such as water, oil or plasma. For the interaction forces, the effect of different hindrance functions for the drag force is studied; moreover a generalized form of the expression for the hindrance function is suggested. For studying this two-component system numerically, a three dimensional CFD solver based on OpenFOAM has been developed. Applying this solver, a specific problem (blood flow) has been studied for which our numerical results and experimental data [3] show good agreement.

AB Thermal interface materials (TIMs) serve a critical role in the thermal management of electronic systems by enhancing the flow of heat from source to sink. Nanostructured materials, such as arrays of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been shown to outperform many commercially available TIMs due to their low intrinsic resistance and large compliance that enables them to conform to rough surfaces. These characteristics, combined with their low density and ability to withstand vacuum environments and extreme temperatures, make CNT-based TIMs very suitable for space applications. In space, materials are exposed to high doses of gamma radiation due to the lack of an atmosphere to serve as an absorbing medium. With typical design lifetimes of 5 to 10 years or even more, total radiation exposure can be significant and can affect the structure and performance of the TIM. In this work, the potentially adverse effects on the thermal performance of CNT TIMs of gamma-ray irradiation is reported. CNT TIMs were irradiated in a gamma cell at a rate of 250 rad/s to total doses of 50 and 100 Mrad. The thermal interface resistance was measured before and after gamma-ray irradiation using a transient photoacoustic (PA) method at room temperature and a contact pressure of 134 kPa and indicated no adverse effects of gamma-ray exposure on thermal performance.

AB The paper focused on the numerical simulation of natural and forced convection of N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis {trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl} imide ([C(4)mpyrr][NTf2]), ionic liquids (ILs). For natural convection heated from below in a square enclosure and forced convection flow through a pipe with uniform heat flux condition was considered. In numerical simulation the dimensions of the natural convection enclosure and forced convection tube are considered same as the experimental setup. Both constant and temperature dependent thermophysical properties of ILs are applied in forced convection and only temperature dependent properties are applied in natural convection simulation. The temperature dependent thermophysical properties such as density, viscosity, thermal conductivity, and heat capacity of ILs are measured experimentally. Higher accuracy was observed for temperature dependent models. The numerical results were compared with the experimental data of natural and forced convection, reported reasonably good agreements between experimental and numerical results.

AB Global and local microstructural weak links for spall damage were investigated using 3-D characterization in polycrystalline (PC) and multicrystalline (MC) copper samples, respectively. All samples were shocked via flyer-target plate experiments using a laser drive at low pressures (2-6 GPa). The flyer plates measured approximately 500 mu m thick and 8 mm in diameter and the target plates measured approximately 1000 mu m thick and 10 mm in diameter. Electron Backscattering Diffraction (EBSD) and optical microscopy were used to determine to presence of voids and relate them to the surrounding microstructure. Statistics on the strength of grain boundaries (GBs) was conducted by analyzing PC samples and collecting the misorientation across GBs with damage present, and it was found that a misorientation range of 25-50 is favorable for damage. Statistics were also taken of copper PC samples that had undergone different heat treatments and it was found that although the 25-50 range is less dominant, it is still favorable for damage nucleation. Removal of initial plastic strain via heat treatments and an increase in Sigma 3 CSL boundaries, indicative of strong annealing twins, also led to an increased amount of transgranular damage. 3-D X-ray tomography data were used to investigate the shape of the voids present in untreated, as received and heat treated samples. It was found that the as received sample contained a higher amount of "disk", or, "sheet-like" voids indicative of intergranular damage, whereas the heat treated samples had a higher fraction of spherical shaped voids, indicative of transgranular damage. MC samples were used to study microstructural weak links for spall damage because the overall grain size is much larger than the average void size, making it possible to determine which GBs nucleated damage. Simulations and experimental analysis of damage sites with large volumes indicate that high Taylor factor mismatches with respect to the crystallographic grain GB normal is the primary cause for the nucleation of damage at a GB interface and a low Taylor factor along the shock direction in either grain drives void growth perpendicular to the GB. Cases where experimental results show damage and simulation results show no damage are attributed to the presence of an intrinsic microstructural weak link, such as an incoherent twin boundary.

AB Carbon fibers are being increasingly used in composites for aircraft. They are bound together with a binder, often an epoxy. There are many grades of binders, and many different types of composites sold on the market. They are expensive. We have some donated materials of unknown type, and would like to be able to be cost-effective and use them without incurring a large cost to analyze the materials using laboratory methods. Visual inspection is not normally sufficiently accurate to be able to tell one composite from another. Optical methods that involve a broader spectrum have commonly been used to discriminate organic materials. A five-band spectral reflectometer is used to measure reflectivity of the surfaces, and is a simple way of extracting data into the infrared bands. The instrument used in these tests is less resolved than a narrow band spectrometer, but is easier to deploy because it is a hand-held device that only requires a flat surface of approximately 3 cm diameter.
Reflectivity of many different composite materials, including a bismaleimide, several thermoset epoxies, and some low temperature epoxies from various manufacturers is measured. Other materials are also included to demonstrate that non-composites can be rejected by the methods. Analysis shows that the reflectometer measurements are capable of discriminating some materials, but have difficulty with discriminating others. The raw reflectivity data are likely to be helpful for future radiation modeling of composite surfaces.

AB Gloveboxes are generally used to protect workers from the potential hazards that arise in the materials they are working with. In the middle of the 20th century gloveboxes were mainly used to protect workers against radioactive materials. Factory Mutual investigated accidents involved in gloveboxes at nuclear facilities from 1956 to 1965 that resulted in damages and contamination clean up efforts reported at $1,232,000 ($8.5 million in 2012 dollars) [1]. Fire suppression systems are therefore a key aspect to glovebox safety. Use of water based systems generally result in undesired transport of hazardous materials [2]. Halon suppression systems were used but due to its large potential to deplete ozone was phased out in the latter part of the 20th century. Activation tests of a commercial automatic fire suppression system (Fire Foe (TM)) containing heptaflouropropane (FE-36) fire suppressant were conducted within a glovebox at the University of Texas Fire Research Group's burn structure. Ten tests were conducted at four different fire sizes: three 13 kW, one 20 kW, three 25 kW and three 50 kW. Activation times and gas temperatures were recorded. Gas temperatures from experiments were compared against NIST's Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) gas temperatures with good agreement. More stratification was observed in experimental temperatures compared to FDS temperatures. The time and spatially averaged net heat flux on a virtual Fire Foe (TM) tube from the FDS simulations were passed to a thermo-physical semi-empirical submodel to predict activation. The submodel did not capture the exponential nature observed in the data of activation times versus fire heat release rate. Work is continuing on improving the submodel to capture the observed events.

AB The electricity consumption of residential and commercial refrigerators is significant in the United States. A natural choice then is to use the low outside temperatures for cooling to reduce electricity usage for residential refrigerators. Our solution is to use two phase close thermosyphon as an economizer during the cold season to take advantage of colder outside temperatures. Benefits of the thermosyphon include a high heat carrying capability with a small temperature drop, low cost, and the ability to behave as a thermal diode. In this work, a model is adapted from the literature to investigate the effect of working fluids, filling ratio and heat input on the performance of thermosyphon for refrigeration applications. Among the working fluids explored ammonia provided the best performance, followed by methanol. Experimental results are also presented for a thermosyphon residing in a simulated refrigeration configuration. The measured temperatures agree well with model predictions. The result demonstrates it is able to maintain temperature drop with applicable range.

AB A study was conducted to experimentally characterize the pool boiling performance of hydrofluorocarbon (HFC)-245fa. The motivation for this research is to characterize the performance of candidate refrigerants for potential use in automotive power electronics two-phase cooling systems. The HFC-245fa pool boiling experiments were conducted using horizontally oriented 1-cm(2) heated surfaces to quantify the effects of pressure and a microporous-enhanced coating on heat transfer coefficients and critical heat flux (CHF) values. Experiments were carried out at pressures ranging from 0.15 MPa to 1.1 MPa (reduced pressure range: 0.04-0.31). To enhance boiling heat transfer, a copper microporous coating was applied to the test surfaces. The coating was found to enhance heat transfer coefficients by as much as 430% and CHF by approximately 50%. Increasing pressure decreased the magnitude of the heat transfer coefficient enhancements but had minimal effect on CHF enhancements. The experimental data were then used to generate correlations for the boiling heat transfer coefficients and CHF values. Finally, the performance of HFC-245fa was compared to the performance of hydrofluoroolefin (HFO)-1234yf and HFC-134a at conditions of equivalent saturation temperatures and reduced pressures.

AB Using a scale/analytical analysis approach, we model phase change (melting) for pure materials which generate constant internal heat generation for small Stefan numbers (approximately one). The analysis considers conduction in the solid phase and natural convection, driven by internal heat generation, in the liquid regime. The model is applied for a constant surface temperature boundary condition where the melting temperature is greater than the surface temperature in a cylindrical geometry. The analysis also consider constant heat flux (in a cylindrical geometry). We show the time scales in which conduction and convection heat transfer dominate.

AB Film cooling is crucial in the field of gas turbines to protect the blade surfaces from the hot combustion gases. Several hole geometries have been studied in the past in an effort to optimize the cooling effectiveness of the holes while maintaining the structural integrity of the blade and low manufacturing costs. To understand the cooling effectiveness of the various hole geometries, the flow structures that develop as the coolant jet interacts with the hot mainstream must be understood. The present paper compares the results obtained from 2D Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) measurements with CFD predictions using standard Reynolds-Averaged Navier Stokes (BANS) models with a commercially available code. The study is conducted for flat plate film cooling via conventional cylindrical holes, shaped holes (10 flare/laidback), and a tripod anti-vortex hole (AY) design. A constant blowing ratio (BR) of 0.5 was used for all the experiments, except for an additional measurement for the AV design at a BR of 1.0. Computational fluid dynamic (CFD) calculations were made with a standard k-epsilon model and compared to PIV results. The results show the counter-rotating vortices developing for cylindrical and shaped holes up to 5D and 3D respectively from the hole exit. AV holes showed no vortex formation, further supporting its higher cooling performance. Moreover, the present results indicate no separation of the coolant jet for AV or shaped holes as expected, while cylindrical holes displayed a small separation with a vertical extent of similar to 0.1D. The CFD model was able to capture the main structures of the flow, but further efforts will concentrate in improving the representation of the flow normal to the flat plate surface.

ID HEAT-TRANSFER; IMPINGING JETS
AB The current detailed experimental study focuses on the optimization of heat transfer performance through jet impingement by varying the coolant flow rate to each individual jet. The test section consists of an array of five jets, which is individually fed and metered separately, and expels air through one exit. The jet diameter D, channel height to jet diameter H/D, and jet spacing to diameter SID, are all held constant at 9.53 mm (0.375 in), 2 and 4 respectively. The Reynolds number, which is based on jet diameter and bulk mean velocity at each jet, ranges from 50,000 to 80,000. A transient liquid crystal technique is employed in this study to determine the local and overall-average heat transfer coefficient distribution on the target plate. Commercially available CFD software, ANSYS CFX, is used to qualitatively correlate the experimental results and to provide detailed insights of the flow field created by the array of jets. The results revealed higher heat transfer coefficients in the impingement area, while decreasing in the radial direction. The upstream region exhibited high heat transfer performance, which is ultimately driven by the jet impingement from the first jet to the third jet. Heat transfer performance decreases at the downstream region with the development of cross-flow. By varying the jet flow rates at approximately +/- 2%, local heat transfer at the downstream region is elevated and the total heat transfer enhancement on the target surface is enhanced up to 35% compared to the baseline case.

AB Tripod hole film cooling designs can provide improved cooling with reduced coolant usage. It is essential to determine the impact of strong cooling near hole locations due to increased thermal gradients around the hole region. In this paper, efforts have been made to predict the same using a numerical analysis. Local temperature distribution on the blade surface causes different rates of expansion, resulting in a differential strain, furthering the impact of the numerical study and creating a need to understand the thermo-mechanical behavior of blade design. The thermal stresses that are generated near the film cooling holes are compared for different cooling hole shapes and eventually weigh the thermal advantage of a tripod hole over the cylindrical standard design. Standard k-epsilon was used to validate the CFD results, ensuring by a fine mesh of 5 million tetrahedrons. Validation includes comparison of the experimental results, with a numerical one where similar blade material and working temperatures are used Upon validation, CFD was run again at engine temperature conditions with Haynes230 alloy as the blade material. Surface temperature contour enabled structural analysis using a finite element approach. Equivalent stresses (Von-Mises stresses) on the blade emerging from the analysis provided more information about stress dependency on blowing ratio.

ID ENHANCEMENT
AB Thermal interface materials (TIMs) serve a critical role in thermal management by enhancing heat transfer across contact interfaces. Specifically, they are most commonly used in electronics to enhance the flow of heat from source to sink by decreasing the overall thermal resistance of the system. In space, these materials are exposed to high doses of Gamma radiation due to the lack of an atmosphere to serve as an absorbing medium. With typical design lifetimes of 5 to 10 years, total radiation exposure can be significant and can adversely affect the thermal contact resistance (TCR) of the TIM. In this manuscript, we report the effect of radiation-aging on the TCC of several commercially available electrically insulating, thermally conductive interface materials that are commonly used in satellite systems. Although radiation dose levels can vary significantly during the course of a space mission, a dosing of 10 Mrad per year for TIMs is a reasonable estimate. The TIMs were aged in a Gamma cell at a rate of 250 rad/s to total doses of 50 and 100 Mrad to simulate mission lengths of 5 and 10 years, respectively. The TCR of each radiation-aged sample, as well as un-aged samples, were measured under vacuum (less than 3 x 10(-4) Pa). Radiation-aging of the TIMs led to a significant increase in the TCR of the tested samples. For example, the pressure-dependent TCR was shown to increase 20-150% for Cho-Therm 1671 and 50-250% for ThermaCool R10404 samples subjected to 50 Mrad of gamma-ray irradiation. These results show that radiation-aging of TIMs cannot be ignored in the design and simulation of space systems.

AB Tritium (H-3(1)) is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen formed by ternary fission events (rare emissions of three nuclides rather than two during a fission) and neutron absorption (and subsequent decay) of predecessor radionuclides, particularly Li-6 and Li-7. Also in fusion, the concept of breeding tritium during the fusion reaction is of significance for the future needs of a large-scale fusion power plant. Tritium is of special interest among the fission products created in next-generation nuclear reactors such as gas cooled reactors and molten salt reactors, because of the large quantities produced when compared with conventional light-water reactors (LWR) and the higher temperatures of operation for these systems enhances permeation. To prevent the tritium contamination of proposed reactor buildings and surrounding sites, this paper examines the root causes and potential solutions for mitigation of permeation of this radionuclide, including materials selection and inert gas sparging. A model is presented that can be used to predict permeation rates of hydrogen through metallic alloys at temperatures from 450-750 degrees C. Results of the diffusion model are presented along with mitigation strategies for tritium permeation.

AB This study presents the material challenges associated with Advanced Reactor Concepts (ARC) such as the Advanced High Temperature Reactor (AHTR). ARCs are the next generation concepts focusing on power production and providing thermal energy for industrial applications. The efficient transfer of energy for industrial applications depends on the ability to incorporate cost-effective heat exchangers between the nuclear heat transport system and industrial process heat transport system.
The heat exchanger required for AHTR is subjected to a unique set of conditions that introduce several design challenges not encountered in standard heat exchangers. The corrosive molten salts, especially at higher temperatures, require materials throughout the system to avoid corrosion, and adverse high-temperature effects, such as creep. Given the very high steam generator pressure of the supercritical steam cycle, it is anticipated that water tube and molten salt shell steam generators heat exchanger will be used.
In this paper, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Section III and Section VIII requirements (acceptance criteria) are discussed. Also, the ASME material acceptance criteria (ASME Section II, Part D) for high temperature environments are presented. Finally, lack of ASME acceptance criteria for thermal design and analysis are discussed with potential benefit.

AB In this paper we analyze the effects of using different OpenMP synchronization mechanisms in iterative mesh optimization algorithms run on the IBM Blue Gene/Q system. We perform a systematic study of a threaded Laplacian mesh smoothing method on Cartesian meshes of different sizes that have been initially perturbed by a factor that is random, but within a controlled range. We consider three different run modes, two of which are OpenMP synchronization mechanisms: (hardware) transactional memory (TM), OpenMP critical, and "none". We find that TM typically outperforms the other two modes in terms of its convergence characteristics. Because of the algorithmic simplicity and light operation count, the raw runtime performance was not our focus in this work; however, we present some results on TM scaling. We also show the TM rollback and conflict probabilities, and conclude that mesh optimization codes are good candidates for using TM when the more general "time-to-convergence" criterion is considered.

AB The OpenMP specification lacks a composable shared memory concurrency mechanism: the current OpenMP concurrency mechanisms, such as OMP critical, locks, or atomics, do not support composition. In this paper, we motivate the need for transactional memory (TM) in OpenMP. The chief reason is to support composition of realistic programs, but we also consider whether TM is easier to program than locks, the use case for TM, and whether a software-only TM can outperform traditional locking through a survey of recent publications. This paper advances upon previous proposals of OpenMP TM by introducing a new construct specifically to handle irrevocable actions, which is also composable. It also proposes a pure atomic transaction construct as well as the concept of transaction safety. Further, we examine how our proposed construct integrates with current OpenMP constructs.

ID TOOL
AB The ability to measure the performance of OpenMP programs portably across shared memory platforms and across OpenMP compilers is a challenge due to the lack of a widely-implemented performance interface standard. While the OpenMP community is currently evaluating a tools interface specification called OMPT, at present there are different instrumentation methods possible at different levels of observation and with different system and compiler dependencies. This paper describes how support for four mechanisms for OpenMP measurement has been integrated into the TAU performance system. These include source-level instrumentation (Opari), a runtime "collector" API (called ORA) built into an OpenMP compiler (OpenUH), a wrapped OpenMP runtime library (GOMP using ORA), and an OpenMP runtime library supporting an OMPT prototype (Intel). The capabilities of these approaches are evaluated with respect to observation visibility, portability, and measurement overhead for OpenMP benchmarks from the NAS parallel benchmarks, Barcelona OpenMP Task Suite, and SPEC 2012. The integrated OpenMP measurement support is also demonstrated on a scientific application, MPAS-Ocean.

ID VISUAL TRACKING
AB This paper presents a novel approach for improving multi-person tracking using hierarchical group structures. The groups are identified by a bottom-up social group discovery method. The inter-and intra-group structures are modeled as a two-layer graph and tracking is posed as optimization of the integrated structure. The target appearance is modeled using HOG features, and the tracking solution is obtained via dynamic programming. The group structures are updated continuously and re-initialized intermittently using collected tracking evidence. We test our method on videos from four challenging datasets and evaluate it against state-of-the-art trackers. The significant performance improvement shows the importance of modeling the intra-group relationships and the advantage of the two-layer graph structure.

AB There are several very capable open source engineering analysis tools that a utility can use to assist in solving engineering analysis problems. Applying these open source applications, alongside a commercial engineering analysis application, can be a very cost effective way for utility engineers to solve problems presented by newer technologies, such as Solar and Wind DG and PEV charging, using the data they already have in their commercial applications.
In this paper we will use GridLAB-D, OpenDSS, and Milsoft's WindMil, to show examples of today's engineering analysis problems that can be solved using open source and commercial applications in concert with each other. The purpose of the paper is to show what is possible, and what is needed to use multiple analysis tools to solve more complex analysis. The purpose of the paper is not, for example, to complete a complex time series study on the affect of PV generation on a distribution network, which could be a paper on its own merit. The list below outlines some of the analysis projects that can be done with this approach and we will provide examples of at least two of them.
Voltage Drop
Basic PV Analysis
Effects of voltage profiles for various times (peak wind/solarv. peak load v. off-peak)
Harmonics
Effects of EV charging
We will also outline the need for validated connectivity and asset information as the foundation analysis in any tool selected by the utility to accomplish their engineering analysis tasks.

ID ELECTRICITY
AB Value-based reliability planning (VBRP) has been a well-established theoretical concept in the utility industry for over 30 years. However, few utilities have implemented this planning framework because customer interruption cost estimates - a key input for VBRP - have not been readily available, especially for rural electric entities that do not have the resources to conduct an in-depth customer interruption cost survey. In addition, the electric utility industry has lacked a detailed technical framework for applying the VBRP theory. To address these barriers to incorporating customer interruption costs into reliability planning, the authors of this paper developed the Interruption Cost Estimate (ICE) Calculator, which is a tool designed for electric reliability planners at utilities, government organizations or other entities that are interested in estimating interruption costs and/or the benefits associated with reliability improvements. This paper provides a case study that uses the ICE Calculator and specifically discusses how rural electric entities can take advantage of this publicly available reliability planning tool.

ID PERFORMANCE; BEHAVIOR; RADIUS
AB Despite the advantages of advanced high strength steels (AHSS), their stamping into functional lightweight parts demands prolonged die life, which necessitates the use of alternative substrates, coating materials, and/or surface conditioning to minimize and delay the die wear. In order to avoid frequent die replacement and surface quality problems on the stamped parts, the metalworking industry has been investigating various approaches such as reducing/refining the carbide particles, adding alloying elements, and elevating the hardness and toughness values for both substrate materials and coatings.
The objective of this work was to investigate the effects of different coatings on the wear behavior of a some selected tool steel materials (die sample of interest) against two different AHSS sheet blanks through a cylinder-on-flat type reciprocating test method. After wear tests, both die sample and sheet blank surface were microscopically examined. Wear resistance of the slider was quantified from wear scar width measurements. Results showed that TD and CVD coated die samples performed better than the two other PVD coated samples.

CELL-DEATH; BLOOD; STRESS
AB In order to expand on potential injury mechanisms to the brain, a micromechanical structural representation of the gray matter must be developed. The gray matter contains a high volume of capillary vasculature that supplies the necessary oxygen required for maintaining healthy cell and brain function. Even short disruptions in this blood supply and the accompanying dissolved oxygen can lead to neuronal cell damage and death. It has been shown that increased shearing forces within the blood, such as those found near stents and artificial heart valves, can lead to platelet activation and aggregation, causing clots to form and potential disruptions in blood flow and oxygen distribution. Current macro-scale computational brain modeling can incorporate the larger main vasculature of the brain, but it becomes too computationally expensive to incorporate the smaller vessels. These larger scale models can be used to reveal how forces to the head are transmitted down to a scale slightly larger than the smallest capillaries within the gray matter. In order to investigate the response and potential damage to capillaries and platelets within the brain, a micromechanical computational model is developed incorporating the gray matter, capillaries, and blood, which is composed of plasma, red blood cells, and platelets. The red blood cells are a necessary component for the model for damage as it comprises almost half of the volume of blood and is the major contributor to the non-Newtonian behavior. The model combines both fluids and viscoelastic solid materials (the gray matter and the vascular wall). The deviatoric stress, strain and strain rate of the platelets in response to an externally applied load is measured and will determine the potential for platelet aggregation and clot formation. The micromechanical model is also used to provide verification and refinement for existing constitutive models for the gray matter used in meso- and macro-scale computational models.

ID IMPACT; RESTITUTION; COEFFICIENT; EXCITATION; SPHERES; VIBRATIONS; WEAR
AB Impact is a wide-spread phenomenon in mechanical systems that can have a significant effect on the systems dynamics, stability, wear, and damage. The simulation of impact in complex, mechanical systems, however, is often too computationally intensive for high fidelity finite element analyses to be useful as design tools. As a result, rigid body dynamics and reduced order model simulations are often used, with the impact events modeled by ad hoc methods such as a constant coefficient of restitution or penalty stiffness. The effect of epistemic uncertainty in the choice of contact model is investigated in this paper for a representative multiple-degree of freedom mechanical system. Five contact models are considered in the analysis: a constant coefficient of restitution model, a piecewise-linear stiffness and damping (i.e. Kelvin-Voight) model, two similar elastic-plastic constitutive models, and one dissimilar elastic-plastic constitutive model. The predictions of wear and mechanical failure are assessed for each of the contact models. The ramifications of the choice of the contact model for an optimization study of the system's geometric design are also presented. These results emphasize the importance of choosing an accurate contact model when simulations are being used to drive the design of a system.

ID FLOCCULATION; AGGREGATION
AB Mechanical Engineering Capstone projects traditionally involve design and fabrication of a piece of hardware needed to meet the specifications of an industrial sponsor. Such projects provide an opportunity for the students to apply their classroom knowledge to a practical project and to interact and collaborate with a motivated sponsor. Howard University and Sandia National Laboratories have collaborated for the past seven years on developing research-focused projects from a national laboratory that are appropriate for Capstone design student teams. The students are exposed to a research environment and learn how to use their designs to perform experiments that can acquire high-quality data. As part of these problem-based learning projects, the students employ various Computer Aided Engineering (CAE) tools available as part of their design work, build apparatus, acquire data, and perform data analysis. The projects are focused on design, but lead to an experimental apparatus that is tested, leading to students' experience with equipment such as data acquisition systems, high-speed cameras, image analysis, evaluation of experimental uncertainty, and comparing data with models. Two example projects will be presented in this paper, one focused on development of apparatus for testing flocculation of small particles, and another on developing a vibration test platform for experiments on bubbles under vibration.

ID CHARPY IMPACT TEST; CUP-CONE FRACTURE; CRACK-GROWTH; SIMULATIONS;
CLEAVAGE; SOLIDS
AB Fracture properties of Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) steels show large variations with changes in temperature and irradiation levels. Brittle "behavior is observed at lower temperatures and/or higher irradiation levels whereas ductile mode of failure is predominant at higher temperatures and/or lower irradiation levels. In addition to such temperature and radiation dependent fracture behavior, significant scatter in fracture toughness has also been observed. As a consequence of such variability in fracture behavior, accurate estimates of fracture properties of RPV steels are of utmost importance for safe and reliable operation of reactor pressure vessels.
A cohesive zone based approach is being pursued in the present study where an attempt is made to obtain a unified law capturing both stable crack growth (ductile fracture) and unstable failure (cleavage fracture). The parameters of the constitutive model are dependent on both temperature and failure probability. The effect of irradiation has not been considered in the present study. The use of such a cohesive zone based approach would allow the modeling of explicit crack growth at both stable and unstable regimes of fracture. Also it would provide the possibility to incorporate more physical lower length scale models to predict DBT. Such a multi-scale approach would significantly improve the predictive capabilities of the model, which is still largely empirical.

AB A thermal analysis was performed for the Advanced Gas Reactor test experiment number three/four (AGR-3/4) irradiated at the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). Several fuel irradiation experiments are planned for the AGR Fuel Development and Qualification Program which supports the development of the Very-High-Temperature gas-cooled Reactor (VHTR) under the Next-Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) project.
AGR-3/4 combines two tests in a series of planned AGR experiments to test tristructural-isotropic (TRISO)-coated, low-enriched uranium oxycarbide fuel. The AGR-3/4 test was designed primarily to assess fission product transport through various graphite materials. The AGR-3/4 test was inserted in the ATR beginning in 2011 and is currently still in the reactor. Forty-eight (48) TRISO fueled compacts were inserted into twelve separate capsules for the experiment.
The purpose of this analysis was to calculate the temperatures of each compact and graphite layer to obtain daily average temperatures and to compare with experimentally measured thermocouple data. Heat rates were input from a detailed physics analysis using the MCNP code for each day during the experiment. Individual heat rates for each non-fuel component were input as well. A steady-state thermal analysis was performed for each daily calculation. A finite element model was created for this analysis using the commercial finite element heat transfer and stress analysis package ABAQUS. The fission and neutron gamma heat rates were calculated with the nuclear physics code MCNP. ATR outer shim control cylinders and neck shim rods along with driver fuel power and fuel depletion were incorporated into the daily physics heat rate calculations. Compact and graphite thermal conductivity were input as a function of temperature and neutron fluence with the field variable option in ABAQUS. Surface-to- surface radiation heat transfer along with conduction heat transfer through the gas mixture of helium-neon (used for temperature control) was used in these models. The kinetic theory of gases was used to correlate the thermal conductivity of the gas mixture. Model results are compared to thermocouple data taken during the experiment. Future thennal analysis models will consider control temperature gas gaps and fuel compact graphite holder gas gaps varying from the original fabrication dimensions as a function of fast neutron fluence.

AB Transport mechanisms, such as mass and heat transfer, are critical to the efficiency and the reliability of nuclear fuels such as uranium oxide. These properties can be significantly affected by the microstructure of the material. This paper looks into the effects of grain boundary (GB) Kapitza resistance on the overall heat conductivity of UO2 using a 3-D finite element model with microstructurally explicit information. The model developed is created with a 3-D reconstruction of the microstructure of depleted uranium samples performed using serial sectioning techniques with Focused Ion Beam (FIB) and Electron Backscattering Diffraction (EBSD). The model treats grain bulks, GBs and triple junctions using elements of different dimensionalities, and it is thus capable of incorporating information of all three entities in one model while keeping a manageable computational cost. Furthermore, the properties of these microstructural entities are characterized by misorientation angles and Coincident Site Lattice (CSL) models, which provide a framework to assign spatially dependent thermal and mass transfer properties based on the location and connectivity of these entities in actual microstructures. Coupling between heat transfer and mass transfer of fission products is also taken into account in the study, to make it a multi-physics model capable of following the evolution of thermal performance as fission products are produced. These simulations can provide input and insight into the fuel pellet behaviors at the initial stage of power generation when burnups are low.

DE Monolithic Fuel Plates; U10Mo; Irradiation; Zirconium Liner
ID MO ALLOY FUEL
AB The effects of the thickness of Zirconium liner on stress-strain behavior of monolithic fuel mini-plates during fabrication and irradiation processes were studied. Monolithic plate-type fuel elements is a new fuel form being developed for research and test reactors to achieve higher uranium densities which allows the use of low-enriched uranium fuel in reactor core. These fuel elements are comprised of a high density, low enrichment, U-Mo alloy based fuel foil encapsulated in a cladding material made of Aluminum. Early RERTR experiments indicated that the presence of an interaction layer between the fuel and cladding materials causes mechanical problems. To minimize the fuel/cladding interaction, employing a diffusion barrier between the cladding and the fuel materials was proposed. Current monolithic plate design employs a 0.025 mm thick, 99.8% pure annealed Zirconium diffusion barrier between the fuel foil (U10Mo) and the cladding materials (AL6061-O). To benchmark the irradiation performance, a number of plates were irradiated in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) with promising irradiation performance. To understand the effects of the thickness of the Zirconium diffusion barrier on the stress-strain behavior of the plates during fabrication, irradiation and shutdown stages, a representative plate from RERTR-12 experiments (Plate L1P7A0) was selected and simulated. Both fabrication and irradiation stages were considered. Simulations were repeated for various Zirconium thicknesses to understand the effects of the thickness of the diffusion barrier. Results of fabrication simulations indicated that Zirconium thickness has noticeable effects on foil's stresses. Irradiation simulations revealed that the fabrication stresses of the foil would be relieved rapidly in the reactor. Results also showed that Zirconium thickness has little or no effects on irradiation and shutdown stresses.

ID PHASE-CHANGE; NATURAL-CONVECTION; ENHANCEMENT
AB A two-dimensional model is developed to simulate the transient response of a heat pipe-assisted latent heat thermal energy storage (LHTES) unit that is combined with dish-Stirling solar power generation systems. The unit consists of a container which houses a phase change material (PCM) and two sets of interlaced input and output heat pipes (HPs) embedded in the PCM. The LHTES unit is exposed to time-varying concentrated solar irradiance. A three-stage operating scenario is investigated that includes: (i) charging only, (ii) simultaneous charging and discharging, and (iii) discharging only In general, it was found that the PCM damps the temporal variations of the input solar irradiance, and provides relatively smooth thermal power to the engine over a time period that can extend to after-sunset hours. Heat pipe spacing was identified as a key parameter to control the dynamic response of the unit. The system with the greatest (smallest) heat pipe spacing was found to have the greatest (smallest) temperature drops across the LHTES, as well as the maximum (minimum) amount of PCM melting and solidification. Exergy analyses were also performed, and it was found that the exergy efficiencies of all the systems considered were greater than 97%, with the maximum exergy efficiency associated with the system having the minimum heat pipe spacing.

AB A dynamic computer model of a turbine was developed in MATLAB in order to study the behavior of vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) with variable pitch (articulating) foils. The simulation results corroborated the findings of several empirical studies on VAWTs. The model was used to analyze theories of pitch articulation and to inform the discussion on turbine design. Simulations of various models showed that pitch articulation allowed Darrieus-style vertical axis wind turbines to start from rest. Once in motion, the rotor was found to accelerate rapidly to very high rotational velocities. The simulations revealed a plateau region of high efficiency for small-scale Darrieus-style VAWTs with symmetric airfoils at tip speed ratios in the range of 3 to 4 and demonstrated the advantages of using a dynamic generator load.

AB Staff at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory have conducted mixing and mobilization experiments with both transparent and opaque non-Newtonian slurries that poses a yield stress and exhibit Bingham plastic and shear thinning behavior. This paper describes measurement techniques applied to identify the interface between flowing (i.e. mobilized) and stationary regions of non-Newtonian slurries that are subjected to transient, periodic, developing flows. Techniques were identified or developed to determine the mobilized and stagnant regions of a vessel, characteristic mixing times, and characteristic velocities of the flow field and mixing process. Instruments and techniques included electromagnetic (EM) and Doppler velocity probes, camera wells, radio frequency tags, dye tracers, and core sampling. Testing focused on mixing vessels using intermitent jet mixers oriented vertically downward. Descriptions of the instruments and instrument performance are presented. These techniques were an effective approach to characterize mixing phenomena, determine mixing energy required to fully mobilize vessel contents and to determine mixing times for process evaluation.

AB Flow scour is the engineering term used to describe the erosion of a sediment bed due to fluid flow. Local scour occurs around objects placed in the path of flow, such as bridge piers and abutments. Severe damage or even failure of structures may occur if the amount of scour is too great. Due to the complexity of the fluid/structure interactions and cost of experiments, Computation Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods are under development to predict the shape and depth of a scour hole. This study extends a previous 3-D iterative methodology, with several improvements to the scouring physics models, implemented in the commercial CFD software STAR-CCM+ to predict the scour hole formation around circular bridge piers. These improvements are inclusion of a variable critical shear stress (VCSS) for the initiation of motion of bed sediment, scouring normal to the sediment bed, and a sand slide model. Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations and a k-epsilon turbulence model are used to resolve the flow field. The methodology uses a single phase implicit unsteady approach to obtain sediment bed shear stress values. Two moving boundary relations are employed to model the erosion and sand slide physics. One for the erosion rate is based upon an empirical correlation for critical shear stress combined with a sediment entrainment function of Van Rijn, and the other uses the slope of the sediment bed, to iteratively displace the sediment bed in a way that decreases slope as long as it exceeds the angle of repose of the sediment. This is accomplished by a user defined function to move the sediment bed at each time step and the mesh morphing procedure built into STAR-CCM+ to solve fluid-structure interaction problems to stretch the existing mesh to maintain cell quality throughout the flow domain as the bed is displaced. Simulation results have been compared to experimental data found in literature. It was found that simulations over predict the maximum scour depth by up to 35%, but show a large improvement in capturing the overall shape of the scour hole in comparison to models that do not include a sand slide model.

AB The fatigue crack propagation behavior of high-strength carbon steel in 5% NaCl buffered with Na2CO3/CO2 and in contact with 0.83 H2S at 20 degrees C was studied using frequency scans and microscopic surface analyses. The solution pH was 7. A fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) was measured as a function of frequency for stress intensity factors (Delta K) of 315.4 and 153.5 MPa root cm, respectively. The FCGR versus frequency plot showed a linear dependence with a gradient of -0.5 for of 315.4 MPa root cm, whereas at 153.5 MPa root cm linear dependence was not observed. Samples failed catastrophically after the cyclic stress testing in the autoclave for 315.4 and 153.5 MPa root cm. Microscopic investigations of the fracture surface for the higher Delta K revealed the presence of pits, secondary cracks and characteristics suggesting overall brittle fracture. The fractograph after cyclic testing at lower Delta K revealed areas characteristic of ductile fracture near the outer surfaces of the compact tension specimen and indications of brittle fracture in the central region away from the outer surfaces. The frequency scans and the microscopic investigations confirmed different failure mechanisms of the steel for 315.4 and 153.5 MPa root cm.

AB In-situ electrochemical corrosion measurements were performed for high-strength low-alloy steels in 5 % wt. NaCl solutions of pH 7.5, 10.6, and 12.3 at 85 degrees C. It was observed that the corrosion typically reached a steady state by 60 hours. The corrosion rate at steady state was slower at higher pH, regardless of H2S concentration. The addition of H2S accelerated the corrosion rates of UD-165 at pH 7.5 and 12.3, but decreased the corrosion rate at pH 10.6. This could have been related to the autocatalytic effect of H2S and the nature of the corrosion product film on the surface. Both the Pourbaix diagrams and the surface analyses suggested that the corrosion products shifted from iron sulfides to iron oxides as the solution pH was increased.

AB A complete picture of the electrochemical processes and reaction fronts within batteries is difficult to form due to the complexities of the reactions and the difficulties of analytical interrogation of those reactions. Ex-situ measurements at various stages of reaction can provide mechanistic insight. However, configurational information is lost in the process. In-situ methods are typically hindered by the cell housing. In these studies we have used the high power NSLS synchrotron to perform in-situ EDXRD. By combining diffraction data with ex-situ methods we are able to create a more complete picture of the ongoing reactions within the cell.

AB Low temperature synthetic strategies for direct control of crystallite size and composition of energy storage materials will be discussed. This ability to synthetically control material properties enabled the systematic exploration of the fundamental properties of the materials, which reveals a dependence of electrochemical reversibility, current capability, and delivered capacity on chemical or physical properties, likely crystallite size. In a more general sense, fundamental studies involving the impact of physical and chemical properties of materials on their electrochemical properties are critical in the rational development of materials, which may address the present and future requirements for stationary and portable power.

AB Weld repairs performed on irradiated reactor components can be problematic due to the presence of entrapped helium in the reactor internal components that is generated by boron and nickel transmutation under neutron irradiation. Under unfavorable conditions of high heat input, high tensile stress and high helium content, sufficient quantities of entrapped helium can migrate to and accumulate at grain boundaries during a welding operation thus resulting in cracks in the weld. Determining crack-free welding conditions solely based on extensive weldability testing for a given welding repair scenario could be very costly, time consuming, and in some cases infeasible.
In this work, a computational model has been developed and sufficiently validated as a cost-effective alternative method for making this determination. This computational model considers the transient temperature profile in the material, the stress history in the material and the helium content. It further includes a methodology for determining the amount of helium that is released under the calculated temperature/stress conditions, a method for calculating the degree to which the helium bubbles grow, and a criterion for determining if the resulting helium bubble distribution will result in cracking as the weld cools. This computational tool is benchmarked with available experimental results on welding of irradiated materials. It is shown that such a model can be a cost-effective tool for determining suitable welding process conditions (heat input and process selection) for repair welding of irradiated materials of reactor internals.

AB The United States Department of Energy's Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) Program will irradiate up to six nuclear graphite creep experiments in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) located at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). The graphite experiments are being irradiated over an approximate eight year period to support development of a graphite irradiation performance data base on the new nuclear grade graphites now available for use in high temperature gas reactors. The goals of the irradiation experiments are to obtain irradiation performance data, including irradiation creep, at different temperatures and loading conditions to support design of the NGNP Very High Temperature Gas Reactor (VHTR), as well as other future gas reactors. The experiments each consist of a single capsule that contain six stacks of graphite specimens, with half of the graphite specimens in each stack under a compressive load, while the other half of the specimens are not be subjected to a compressive load during irradiation. The six stacks have differing compressive loads applied to the top half of diametrically opposite pairs of specimen stacks. A seventh specimen stack in the center of the capsule does not have a compressive load. The specimens are being irradiated in an inert sweep gas atmosphere with on-line temperature and compressive load monitoring and control. There are also samples taken of the sweep gas effluent to measure any oxidation or off-gassing of the specimens that may occur during initial start-up of the experiment.
The first experiment, AGC-1, started its irradiation in September 2009, and the irradiation was completed in January 2011. The second experiment, AGC-2, started its irradiation in April 2011 and completed its irradiation in May 2012 [1]. The third experiment, AGC-3, is scheduled to start its irradiation in late November 2012 and complete in the late summer to fall of 2014. This paper will briefly discuss the design of the AGC-3 experiment and control systems, and present the irradiation results to date.

AB The United States Department of Energy's Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP) Advanced Gas Reactor (AGR) Fuel Development and Qualification Program is irradiating up to seven low enriched uranium (LEU) tri-isotopic (TRISO) particle fuel (in compact form) experiments in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) located at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). These irradiations and fuel development are being accomplished to support development of the next generation reactors in the United States. The experiments will be irradiated over the next several years to demonstrate and qualify new TRISO coated particle fuel for use in high temperature gas reactors. The goals of the experiments are to provide irradiation performance data to support fuel process development, to qualify fuel for normal operating conditions, to support development and validation of fuel performance and fission product transport models and codes, and to provide irradiated fuel and materials for post irradiation examination (PIE) and safety testing. The experiments, which will each consist of several independent capsules, will be irradiated in an inert sweep gas atmosphere with individual on-line temperature monitoring and control of each capsule. The sweep gas will also have on-line fission product monitoring on its effluent to track performance of the fuel in each individual capsule during irradiation.
The first experiment (designated AGR-1) started irradiation in December 2006 and was completed in November 2009. The second experiment (AGR-2) started irradiation in June 2010 and is currently scheduled to be completed in September 2013. The third and fourth experiments have been combined into a single experiment designated (AGR-3/4), which started its irradiation in December 2011 and is currently scheduled to be completed in April 2014. Since the purpose of this combined experiment is to provide data on fission product migration and retention in the NGNP reactor, the design of this experiment is significantly different from the first two experiments, though the control and monitoring systems are extremely similar. The design of the experiment will be discussed followed by its progress and status to date.

AB In VHTR, helium from the reactor vessel is conveyed to a power conversion unit through a hot duct. In a hypothesized Depressurized Conduction Cooldown event where a rupture of the hot duct occurs, pressure waves will be initiated and reverberate in the hot duct. A numerical model is developed to quantify the transients and the helium mass flux through the rupture for such events. The flow path of the helium forms a closed loop but only the hot duct is modeled in this study. The lower plum of the reactor vessel and the steam generator are treated as specified pressure and/or temperature boundary to the hot duct. The model is based on the conservation principles of mass, momentum and energy, and on the equations of state for helium. The numerical solution is based on the method of characteristics with specified time intervals with a predictor and corrector algorithm. The rupture sub-model gives reasonable results. Transients induced by ruptures with break area equaling 20%, 10%, and 5% of the duct cross-sectional area are described.

ID HIGH-TEMPERATURE REACTOR; HEAT-TRANSFER
AB The prismatic gas-cooled very high temperature reactor (VHTR) is one possible option for the generation IV nuclear power plant. The prismatic VHTR basically involves stacks of hexagonal graphite blocks that are drilled to accept cylindrical fuel compacts and provide coolant channels for the helium coolant. Between the hexagonal blocks, there are gaps, which allow the coolant flow to bypass the coolant channels. The gaps are not intentionally designed to occur in the core, but are present because of tolerances in machining the blocks, imperfect installation and expansion and shrinkage from heating and irradiation. Based on previous studies of a loss of flow accident (LOFA), the cooling provided by flow in the bypass gaps has a significant effect on the nature and strength of the attendant natural circulation. One of the mechanisms that occurs after a LOFA for the transport of heat out of the core is by the natural convection of the coolant. It is of interest to know if there are problems for the core associated with the natural circulation and what is the role played by the bypass flow in such an event.
The distribution of heat generation and the separation of the partial columns included in the CFD model of the heated core have a strong effect on the natural circulation. In the present paper, a 1/12 symmetric section of the active core is considered for the CFD model. Two regions of the 1/12 section are employed to perform the LOFA transient calculations. Several scenarios are investigated including with and without the bypass gap in the model. The present study also reports the effects of bypass flow on the natural circulation with time for these cases.

ID VORTEX THROTTLES; FLOW; SIMULATION; CHAMBERS; REACTOR
AB The Direct Reactor Auxiliary Cooling System (DRACS) is a passive heat removal system proposed for the Advanced High-Temperature Reactor (AHTR) that combines the coated particle fuel and graphite moderator with a liquid fluoride salt as the coolant. The DRACS features three coupled natural circulation/convection loops relying completely on buoyancy as the driving force. A fluidic diode has been proposed in the DRACS primary loop to maintain the passive feature. Fluidic diodes are passive flow control devices with low flow resistance in one direction and high flow resistance in the opposite direction. The fluidic diode is orientated such that during reactor normal operation the primary salt flow in the DRACS is restricted, thus preventing excessive heat loss from the reactor to the DRACS. However, when the DRACS is functioning during reactor accidents, the primary salt flow is in the forward flow direction of the diode that features low flow resistance.
To investigate the reliability and thermal performance of the DRACS, a high-temperature DRACS test facility (HTDF) is being designed and constructed at The Ohio State University (OSU). In this HTDF, a conventional vortex diode has been proposed. In this paper, a detailed design process of the vortex diode for the HTDF is presented. Design parameters, such as the desired flow rates in and pressure drops across the fluidic diode, were first determined for both the forward and reverse flow directions, following which was the parametric CFD study of multiple vortex diodes with variant nozzle size, chamber size, and inlet flow rates. Flow structures inside the diode, and the effects of the nozzle size, chamber size, and Reynolds number on the Euler number were examined for both flow directions. Correlations of the forward and reverse Euler numbers and the diodicity were developed and used to develop a vortex diode design that would be applicable to the HTDF.

AB The design and R&D for ITER In-Vessel Coils (IVCs) is being deployed. The concerned issue of "Edge Localized Modes" (ELMs) and "Vertical Stabilization" (VS) of the ITER plasma can be addressed by the implemented IVCs. The ELM and VS coils will be installed in the vessel just behind the blanket shield modules to reach the requirement of keeping strong coupling with the plasma. The 59mm Stainless Steel Jacketed Mineral Insulated Conductor (SSMIC) using MgO as the insulation is being designed for the IVCs to resist the special challenges, including the nuclear radiation, high temperature, electromagnetic and thermal fatigue. It is necessary to take the mechanical performances of the SSMIC and the feasibility of fabrication techniques into consideration of the R&D program. The mechanical performances of the SSMIC close to the actual work conditions, including the three point bend modulus, three point bend cyclical performance and the cyclical performance with a U-bend sample of the SSMIC prototypes have been investigated and the results are presented in this paper.

ID CURRENT LOAD; CATHODE; SOFC; TEMPERATURE; IMPEDANCE; BEHAVIOR
AB Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are a promising technology for clean power generation, however their implementation has been limited by several degradation mechanisms, which significantly reduce its lifetime under constant output power and inhibits the technology for commercialization in the near future. With the purpose of harnessing the capabilities offered by SOFCs, the U.S. DOE-National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) in Morgantown, WV has developed the Hybrid Performance (HyPer) project in which a SOFC 1D, real-time operating model is coupled to a gas turbine hardware system by utilizing hardware-in-the-loop simulation (HiLS).
More recently, in order to assess the long-term stability of the SOFC part of the system, electrochemical degradation due to operating conditions such as current density and fuel utilization have been incorporated into the SOFC model and successfully recreated in real time for standalone and hybrid operation. The mathematical expression for degradation rate was obtained through the analysis of empirical voltage versus time plots for different current densities and fuel utilizations at 750, 800, and 850 degrees C. Simulation results well reflected the behavior of SOFC degradation rates from which the long-term stability of the cell under various conditions was assessed. Distributed fuel cell parameters are presented for both standalone and hybrid configurations. The incorporation of the electrochemical degradation rate into the SOFC model provides a framework to study more realistically Fuel Cell-hybrid systems and set forth a mechanism to improve the long-term stability of SOFCs through the hybridization of such technology.

AB This article details analysis of hydrogen (H-2) production based on polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolysis. This work identifies primary constraints to the success of this production pathway, primary cost drivers, and remaining Research and Development (R&D) challenges. This research assesses the potential to meet U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) H-2 electrolyzer production and delivery (P&D) cost goals of $2 to $4/gasoline gallon equivalent (dispensed, untaxed) by 2020. Pathway analysis is performed using the DOE's main H2A modeling tool, namely, the H2A Production model, which encapsulates the standard methods of energy, emissions, and cost analysis developed by DOE's H-2 and fuel cell technology teams. PEM electrolysis production pathways are analyzed for a distributed, forecourt H-2 production system of 1,500 kilograms (kg) of H-2 per day, and for a central, large, plant size H-2 production system of 50,000 kg H-2/day, for both current and future cases. The analysis is based in part on data from a technical and economic survey completed by four different PEM electrolyzer companies.
Model results indicate that, for PEM electrolysis, the primary cost drivers are the electricity expenditures to run the electrolyzer and the capital cost of the electrolyzer. In the future within the electrolyzer system, the balance of plant is expected to be a greater source of cost than the electrolyzer stack due to stack reductions facilitated by operation at higher current densities whereas the balance of plant remains similarly sized for the given flow. This balance between size and cost of the stack versus balance of plant could also increase difficulties in meeting efficiency improvements in the future. The H-2 cost reduction is estimated to be greater moving from a Current case to a Future case, compared with moving from a Forecourt case to a Central case.

ID DESIGN; SYSTEM; POWER
AB Transient impacts on the performance of solid oxide fuel cell / gas turbine (SOFC/GT) hybrid systems were investigated using hardware-in-the-loop simulations (HiLS) at a test facility located at the U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory. The work focused on applications relevant to polygeneration systems which require significant fuel flexibility. Specifically, the dynamic response of implementing a sudden change in fuel composition from syngas to methane was examined. The maximum range of possible fuel composition allowable within the constraints of carbon deposition in the SOFC and stalling/surging of the turbine compressor system was determined.
It was demonstrated that the transient response was significantly impact the fuel cell dynamic performance, which mainly drives the entire transient in SOFC/GT hybrid systems. This resulted in severe limitations on the allowable methane concentrations that could be used in the final fuel composition when switching from syngas to methane. Several system performance parameters were analyzed to characterize the transient impact over the course of two hours from the composition change.

AB A pressure drop analysis for a direct-fired fuel cell turbine hybrid power system was evaluated using a hardware-based simulation of an integrated gasifier/fuel cell/turbine hybrid cycle (IGFC), implemented through the Hybrid Performance (Hyper) project at the National Energy Technology Laboratory, U.S. Department of Energy (NETL). The Hyper facility is designed to explore dynamic operation of hybrid systems and quantitatively characterize such transient behavior. It is possible to model, test and evaluate the effects of different parameters on the design and operation of a gasifier/fuel cell/gas turbine hybrid system and provide means of evaluating risk mitigation strategies.
The cold air bypass in the Hyper facility directs compressor discharge flow to the turbine inlet duct, bypassing the fuel cell and exhaust gas recuperators in the system. This valve reduces turbine inlet temperature while reducing cathode airflow, but significantly improves compressor surge margin. Regardless of the reduced turbine inlet temperature as the valve opens, a peak in turbine efficiency is observed during characterization of the valve at the middle of the operating range. A detailed experimental analysis shows the unusual behavior during steady state and transient operation, which is considered a key point for future control strategies in terms of turbine efficiency optimization and cathode airflow control.

ID OXIDE FUEL-CELL; DEGRADATION
AB The adoption of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology in power generation has been limited, in no small part, by material degradation issues affecting the stack lifetime, and hence, the economic viability. A numeric study was conducted to determine if the life of an SOFC could be extended when integrated with a recuperated gas turbine system. Dynamic modeling tools developed at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) for real-time applications were applied to evaluate, life to failure for both a standalone SOFC and a hybrid SOFC gas turbine. These models were modified using empirical relations to experimental degradation data to incorporate degradation as a function of current density and fuel utilization. For the control strategy of shifting power to the turbine as fuel cell voltage degrades, the SOFC life could be extended dramatically, significantly impacting the economic potential of the technology.

ID OXIDE FUEL-CELL; THERMAL MANAGEMENT; POWER
AB Thermal management in the fuel cell component of a direct fired solid oxide fuel cell gas turbine (SOFC/GT) hybrid power system, especially during an imposed load transient, can be improved by effective management and control of the cathode air mass flow. The response of gas turbine hardware system and the fuel cell stack to the cathode air mass flow transient was evaluated using a hardware-based simulation facility designed and built by the U.S. Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL).
The disturbances of the cathode air mass flow were accomplished by diverting air around the fuel cell system through the manipulation of a hot-air bypass valve in open loop experiments. The dynamic responses of the SOFC/GT hybrid system were studied in this paper.
The evaluation included distributed temperatures, current densities, heat generation and losses along the fuel cell over the course of the transient along with localized temperature gradients. The reduction of cathode air mass flow resulted in a sharp decrease and partial recovery of the thermal effluent from the fuel cell system in the first 10 seconds. In contrast, the turbine rotational speed did not exhibit a similar trend. The collection of distributed fuel cell and turbine trends obtained will be used in the development of controls to mitigate failure and extend life during operational transients.

AB Conversion of direct solar energy, in particular the Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) technologies, has a significant role on conventional energy cost and efficiency. A single tank thermocline Thermal Energy Storage (TES) system is accountable for the overall efficiency of this conversion system. A single tank TES system has a thermocline region that produces the temperature gradient between hot and cold storage fluid by density difference. The overall energy storage capacity depends on sustaining of this region at uniform manner. This paper analyzes how the difference in the percentage of porous medium influences the effectiveness of the flow-distribution and hence, the overall performance of the TES system. The effectiveness is assessed by the optimal flow distribution. The optimal distribution is obtained by examining the velocity profile at any horizontal plane. This plane should be uniform for sustaining the thermocline region during the operation period. To achieve a uniform velocity distribution, two symmetric perforated plate flow distributors were placed in the tank. The distributors were positioned near the inlet and outlet, and checked the performance by varying the percentage of porous medium since the distribution is influenced by the porosity. Porous distributors with hexagonal shape pore were considered and Hitec (R) molten salt was used as a heat transfer fluid. These respective percentages of porosity affect the flow distribution throughout the tank during the flow distribution. The standard deviations of the velocity field at different positions along z-plane and thermal diffusivity were analyzed. The analyses of our cases were done to distinguish a configuration for the minimum thermal diffusivity and velocity A finite volume based computational fluid dynamics software was used to execute the computational analysis.

AB This paper reports the synthesis, characterization and evaluation of different weight loadings of cobalt ferrite (CoFe2O4) in 8 mol% yttria-stabilized zirconia (8YSZ) via the co-precipitation method. Prepared powders were calcined at 1350 degrees C for 36 hours and 1450 degrees C for 4 hours in air. These powders were then formed into a porous structure using sacrificial pore formation via oxidation of co-mixed graphite powder. These formed structures obtained were then characterized using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), high temperature X-ray diffraction (HT-XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area analysis was performed on the most promising of the structures before being subjected to 50 thermal reduction-CO2 oxidation (redox) cycles using TGA. Together, these results indicate that CoFe2O4-8YSZ can provide a lower reduction temperature, maintain syngas production performance from cycle to cycle, and enhance utilization of the reactive material within the inert support in comparison to iron oxide only structures.

AB Current heliostats cost similar to$200/m(2) of reflective area and are estimated to contribute up to 50% of the total solar power tower plant costs. A drastic overall cost reduction is required in order for concentrated solar thermal power to be economically viable. The Department of Energy has set forth the Sun Shot initiative targeting a levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of $0.06/kWh by the year 2020. The cost of each heliostat must be brought down to an estimated $75/m(2) to achieve this rigorous goal. One of the driving aspects of heliostat design and cost are the heliostat optical errors. At the moment, it is relatively unclear about the amount of error that can be present in the system while still maintaining low cost and high optical accuracy. The optical errors present on heliostat mirror surfaces directly influence the plant LCOE by causing beam spillage. This can result in an increase in the number of heliostats, an increased receiver size, and decreased thermal efficiency. Assuming a fixed heliostat cost of $75/m2, the effects of optical errors on LCOE are evaluated within the software DELSOL. From a probabilistic analysis, beam quality errors (i.e. slope error, alignment errors, etc.) are shown to have more importance on the LCOE than tracking errors. This determination results in a realization that the tracking errors and beam quality errors can be combined into a "bundled" root-sum-square (RSS) error value. A "bundled" error value of 2 mrad results in an LCOE of $0.06/kWh. This "bundled" value is the basis for a new optical error budget and is decomposed into five individual errors. These five errors can be used as design specifications for new generation heliostats.

ID SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGS; SIMULATION; STORAGE
AB It is widely understood that energy storage is the key to integrating variable generators into the grid. It has been proposed that the thermal mass of buildings could be used as a distributed energy storage solution and several researchers are making headway in this problem. However, the inability to easily determine the magnitude of the building's effective thermal mass, and how the heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system exchanges thermal energy with it, is a significant challenge to designing systems which utilize this storage mechanism. In this paper we adapt modal analysis methods used in mechanical structures to identify the primary modes of energy transfer among thermal masses in a building. The paper describes the technique using data from an idealized building model. The approach is successfully applied to actual temperature data from a commercial building in downtown Boise, Idaho.

AB Valves used in molten salt thermal energy storage systems often utilize conventional packing methodology and materials. These packing materials often exhibit relatively short lifetimes because of the reactive interaction of the salt and packing. Past research has indicated that valve packing lifetime is affected by both stress and temperature in the packing. Because of this interaction, it is important to understand the stress in the packing and to find ways to reduce the packing stress. A finite element model of a valve stem/packing system was created and material properties of the packing were determined and validated against previous work. The model was then used to evaluate the stress induced in the packing system through linear axial motion and then extended to include rotational stem motion as well. The analysis confirmed previous results that axial translation created a significant amount of stress in the valve packing. The newly included rotational motion of the valve stem was found to affect the packing stress only minimally. This result suggests that development of better rotary valves would be very useful for utilization in molten salt service, especially as the temperature of the salts are increased in an effort to achieve higher power cycle efficiencies.

AB This paper presents simulations and designs of a prototype falling particle solar receiver with air recirculation as a means of mitigating heat loss and impacts of external wind on particle flow. The flow and dispersion of different sizes of ceramic proppant (CARBO HSP) particles (1 mm, 100 mu m, and 10 mu m) were simulated in recirculating air flows without heating effects. Particles on the order of 0.1 - 1 mm yielded desirable simulated flow patterns when falling through the cavity receiver with an air-injection velocity of 3 m/s. Simulations of smaller particles on the order of 10 microns yielded unstable flow patterns that may lead to large losses of particles through the aperture. A prototype cavity receiver with air recirculation was designed and fabricated to validate the unheated simulations. The blower nozzles and suction plenum were engineered to yield the most uniform flow pattern along the entire width of the aperture. Observed and simulated air velocity distributions around the aperture and particle flow patterns using CARBO HSP particles with an average diameter of similar to 0.7 mm were found to be qualitatively similar.

AB Industrial power utilities are using molten binary nitrate salt as a heat transfer fluid and thermal storage media for solar energy generation. Currently, the maximum bulk temperature is 565 degrees C, due to concerns of salt degradation and materials compatibility with containment vessels.
To increase overall cycle efficiency, one must increase the upper temperature of the nitrate salt, thereby lowering the levelized cost of electricity (LCoE) through higher power cycle efficiency. The corrosion performance of 316 stainless steel and Inconel 625 is currently characterized at 600 degrees C. However, the 316SS has exhibited stress corrosion cracking (thought due to aqueous flush in Solar Two [1]), and while In625 performs well, its cost is prohibitive. Therefore, current research seeks to evaluate heat-resistant austenitic alloys for use with nitrate salts, ascertaining if they have superior performance characteristics, as well as assessing their mechanisms of corrosion.
Sandia National Laboratory is researching four alloys (S35140, ATI332Mo, RA330, and HA556) for corrosion performance at 600 degrees C for 3000 hours, under a cover gas of air. Air is used to simulate the chemistry conditions expected in a power plant.
This work details the corrosion rate and the oxide structure for each alloy. Research indicates all alloys are very corrosionresistant, with metal loss rates projected to be less than 21 mu m/year after 3000 hours. Though all alloys performed well, corrosion rate data for RA330 (Fe-19Cr-35Ni + minor elements) currently appears to exhibit a linear loss mechanism. In conclusion, this paper will explore the differences in oxide formation between these similar alloys.

AB Next generation Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) system requires high operating temperature and high heat storage capacity heat transfer fluid (HTF), which can significantly increase the overall system efficiency for power generation. In the last decade several research going on the efficacy of ionic liquids (ILs) as a HTF in CSP system. ILs possesses superior thermophysical properties compare to currently using HTF such as Therminol VP-1 (mixture of biphenyl and diphenyl oxide) and thermal oil. However, advanced thermophysical properties of ILs can be achieved by dispersing small volume percentage of nanoparticles forming nanofluids, which is called Nanoparticle Enhanced Ionic Liquids (NEILs). In the present study NEILs were prepared by dispersing 0.5% Al2O3 nanoparticles (spherical and whiskers) in N-butyl-N,N,N-trimetylammonium bis(trifluormethylsulfonyl)imide ([N-4111]][NTf2]) IL. Viscosity, heat capacity and thermal conductivity of NEILs were measured experimentally and compared with the existing theoretical models for liquid solid suspensions. Additional, the convective heat transfer experiment was performed to investigate thermal performance. The thermal conductivity of NEILs enhanced by similar to 5%, heat capacity enhanced by similar to 20% compared to the base IL, which also gives 15% enhancement in heat transfer performance.

AB Trigeneration systems are closely associated with sorption cooling technology because prime mover waste heat can be recovered to produce cooling. The working pair and cycle type of the sorption cooling system needs to be matched to the waste heat temperature of the prime mover, as well as with the capacity and application of the trigeneration system. A residential trigeneration system with a 4 kW(elec) internal combustion engine, a 220 gallon (830 L) hot water tank and a 3 kW adsorption chiller powered by 70 degrees C waste heat with separate sensible and latent cooling control strategy is presented in this study. Transient experiments were conducted under 5 day long hot water and space cooling load profiles from a simulated house to evaluate the performance from a practical perspective. The fuel consumption was measured and compared with that of two baseline systems. An analytical criterion was derived and discussed to further evaluate the trigeneration system with different loads under different climates. It was found that the presented residential trigeneration system could save about 30% of fuel consumption compared with conventional off-grid operation mode, but is not more fuel efficient than the conventional on-grid and vapor compression cooling combination.

AB Heliostat reflective facets have traditionally been constructed with glass/silver and a metal back support. During the past year, Sandia National Laboratories evaluated low-cost materials and alternative manufacturing methods to construct facets with the goal of reducing current facet cost by at least 25% while maintaining surface slope errors at 1 milli-radians rms or below. Several companies developed prototype facet samples, which were optically evaluated at Sandia and compared to baseline facet samples using a proposed cost-to-performance metric.
A cost-performance metric for comparing facets was developed by modeling and optimizing a 200 MWe power tower plant scenario in DELSOL, a computer code for system-level modeling of power tower systems. We varied the slope error on the facets and adjusted the cost on the facets to maintain the constant plant levelized cost of energy. The result of these models provides a chart of the facet optical performance and the allowable facet cost for a constant plant LCOE.
The size of the prototype facet samples ranged from 1.4 to 3 m(2). The measured optical slope errors were between 1 and 2 milli-radians rms when compared to a flat mirror design shape. Despite slope errors greater than 1 mrad rms, some of the prototype samples met the cost goals for this project using the cost-performance metric. Next steps are to work with the companies to improve the manufacturing processes and further reduce the cost and improve on the optical performance to reach DOE SunShot goal of $75/m(2) for heliostats.

AB Heliostat optical performance can be affected by both wind- and gravity-induced deflections in the mirror support structure. These effects can result in decreased energy collection efficiency, depending on the magnitude of structural deflections, heliostat orientation and field position, and sun position. This paper presents a coupled modeling approach to evaluate the effects of gravity loading on heliostat optical performance, considering two heliostat designs: The National Solar Thermal Test Facility (NSTTF) heliostat and the Advanced Thermal Systems (ATS) heliostat. Deflections under gravitational loading were determined using finite element analysis (FEA) in ANSYS Mechanical, and the resulting deformed heliostat geometries were analyzed using Breault APEX optical engineering software to evaluate changes in beam size and shape. Optical results were compared against images of actual beams produced by each respective heliostat, measured using the Beam Characterization System (BCS) at Sandia National Laboratories. Simulated structural deflections in both heliostats were found to have visible impacts on beam shape, with small but quantifiable changes in beam power distribution. In this paper, the combined PEA and optical analysis method is described and validated, as well as a method for modeling heliostats subjected to gravitational deflection but canted in-field, for which mirror positions may not be known rigorously. Furthermore, a modified, generalized construction method is proposed and analyzed for the ATS heliostat, which was found to give consistent improvements in beam shape and up to a 4.1% increase in Annual Incident Power Weighted Intercept (AIPWI).

AB Wind and solar power generation differ from conventional energy generation because of the variable and uncertain nature of their power output. This variability and uncertainty can have significant impacts on grid operations. Thus, short-term forecasting of wind and solar power generation is uniquely helpful for balancing supply and demand in an electric power system. This paper investigates the correlation between wind and solar power forecast errors. The forecast and the actual data were obtained from the Western Wind and Solar Integration Study. Both the day-ahead and 4-hour-ahead forecast errors for the Western Interconnection of the United States were analyzed. A joint distribution of wind and solar power forecast errors was estimated using a kernel density estimation method; the Pearson's correlation coefficient between wind and solar forecast errors was also evaluated. The results showed that wind and solar power forecast errors were weakly correlated. The absolute Pearson 's correlation coefficient between wind and solar power forecast errors increased with the size of the analyzed region. The study is also useful for assessing the ability of balancing areas to integrate wind and solar power generation.

AB As one of the viable concentrating solar power (CSP) technologies, linear Fresnel collectors differ from parabolic troughs by virtue of their low-profile mirror arrays and fixed receiver assemblies. This technology is capable of achieving high concentration ratios and so is applicable to high-temperature solar power plant designs. In addition, its low wind profile and linear nature lead to low system and operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
In this report two linear Fresnel solar plant configurations, namely a direct steam generation (DSG) system and a direct high-temperature molten-salt plant, are examined via a levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) analysis. By treating LCOE as a function of the annual investment energy return (IER, or the ratio of annual net electricity to the total direct system cost) under various assumptions of O&M cost, a few plant scenarios employing high-temperature linear Fresnel technology are carefully configured to meet the aggressive LCOE goals of 8 cents/kWh and 6 cents/kWh. The latter is the Depaitinent of Energy (DOE) Sun Shot Initiative goal aimed at making CSP cost competitive in the current energy market. In particular, a linear Fresnel scenario with the potential to meet the Sun Shot goal is featured with a collector cost of $100/m(2), an annual system energy efficiency of 18%, a storage system cost of $15/kWh-th, and an O&M cost of $7.5/MWh. One of the most aggressive assumptions is an advanced power block with about 52% cycle efficiency and a turbine inlet temperature of 700 degrees C.
This work addresses unanswered questions regarding linear Fresnel cost and performance and identifies future research and development directions for linear Fresnel technology, including economic optimization of collectors and receivers, development of physical plant performance models, development of automated O&M mechanisms and sophisticated plant control software.

ID HIGH-TEMPERATURE REACTOR
AB An experiment was conducted at Idaho National Laboratory to investigate the bypass flow associated with a Gas Turbine-Modular Helium Reactor in direct support of Computational Fluid Dynamic validation [1]. Velocity fields within a representative quartz model, consisting of an upper plenum, upper block, and lower block, were measured using Particle Image Velocimetry; after which, flow rates were calculated in each section. The present study was carried out to determine flow distribution from the upper plenum to the fuel block assembly. It was found that the flow rates in the lower six coolant channels varied from their average only by 2.4, 4.6, and 2.5% for the low, medium, and high flow cases, respectively. Consequently, it was concluded that the non-uniform inlet velocity condition in the upper plenum had insignificant effect on flow distribution to the coolant channels and interstitial gap.

AB The Rotatable Buoyancy Tunnel (RoBuT) at Utah State University, built for validation measurements incorporating a high level of data completeness, is described along with the results from validation data sets for forced and mixed convection. One wall of the tunnel test section is heated while the other three are transparent for optical access. All boundary conditions, including geometry, wall temperature and inflow temperature and velocity, are measured and their uncertainties are reported. The tunnel's design is unique in that the test section can be inverted by rotating the entire facility to generate mixed convection with either buoyancy aided or buoyancy opposed flow. The RoBuT can also produce forced or natural convection, either steady or transient.
Measurements for forced and buoyancy-aided mixed convection over a vertical heated plate are described. The RoBuT allows for simultaneous measurements of velocity, wall and inlet air temperature, heat flux measurements on the heated wall, and pressure drop across the test section. The fluid velocity is measured by time-averaged particle image velocimetry (PIV). The first validation case is forced convection since this flow is well understood. Both forced and mixed convection results are compared to published correlations and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) studies. The CFD is steady and 3-D using as-built measurements of the geometry. Experimental wall and inlet temperatures are used for CFD boundary conditions, as well as the inlet velocity and turbulence profiles. Three research groups perform simulations with varying levels of knowledge of the experimental results.

ID FLOW
AB The flow in rod bundles is of key importance in a variety of engineering fields. It is representative, for instance, of the flow in a nuclear reactor core and the flow in a tube and shell heat exchanger. For particularly tight rod bundles (pitch to diameter ratio lower than 1.1 in hexagonal arrays) the flow is subject to a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability that is present in both laminar and turbulent flows and is likely to influence transition.
Such instability has been proven to exist in bare bundles and even in bundles containing spacing devices. In fact, rod bundles are typically separated by devices designed to keep the rods (or tubes) in place and avoid vibrations. Simple spacer designs, such as honeycomb arrays with dimples, do not remove the instability
The present paper discusses a procedure to investigate the effect of spacing devices have on the most unstable mode of turbulence. A linear stability analysis of the laminar flow for several spacing device configurations has been performed by using adjoint methods. The results show the effect of the spacing on the formation of large scale coherent structures and help lay the ground for a theory of turbulence control in tight rod bundles.

AB The purpose of this study was to characterize combustion behavior for n-heptane using experimental measurements in a direct-injection constant-volume combustion chamber (CVCC) to validate chemical-kinetic mechanisms. This work is focused on compression-ignition (i.e., diesel) combustion, primarily because mechanisms for larger-chain diesel-relevant species are not well developed and require significant attention.
The CVCC used in this work can be pressurized and heated to create engine-relevant conditions that enable study of autoignition behavior. In addition, the chamber is equipped with a high-pressure, common-rail diesel injector, making the study of autoignition and combustion in this system highly relevant to modern diesel engines. By varying injection pressure and duration, it is possible to control global equivalence ratio as well. Chamber pressure during injection and combustion is measured using a piezoelectric transducer, and can be subsequently used to infer heat-release rates. Experimental measurements for n-heptane mostly displayed expected trends. As initial chamber pressure increased, ignition delay decreased and peak pressure increased. As injection duration increased, ignition delay decreased due to faster ignition of richer mixtures, and peak pressure increased due to higher total heat release. The effect of temperature on ignition delay, however, was more complex and suggested some amount of NTC (negative temperature coefficient) behavior. For all conditions, heat-release rates indicated entirely premixed combustion with no hint of mixing-controlled combustion.
Experimental data were compared with results from CHEMKIN-PRO simulations. The model simulated zero-dimensional combustion using a detailed n-heptane mechanism developed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. These computations were used to infer local equivalence ratio information, based on equivalence ratio required in the model to match experimental ignition delay. For most test cases, the model required an equivalence ratio that was at least similar to 2x richer than the global value. In addition, equivalence ratios in the model ranged a full order of magnitude, from similar to 0.6 to 6, suggesting that local mixture equivalence ratios varied considerably as experimental conditions were varied. Results suggest that improved models that include details of spray physics are required in order to properly predict local equivalence ratios and resulting autoignition characteristics.

AB A pseudo-multi-zone phenomenological model has been created with the ultimate goal of supporting efforts to enable broader commercialization of low temperature combustion modes in diesel engines. The benefits of low temperature combustion are the simultaneous reduction in soot and nitric oxide emissions and increased engine efficiency if combustion is properly controlled. Determining what qualifies as low temperature combustion for any given engine can be difficult without expensive emissions analysis equipment. This determination can be made off-line using computer models or through factory calibration procedures. This process could potentially be simplified if a real-time prediction model could be implemented to run for any engine platform this is the motivation for this study.
The major benefit of this model is the ability for it to predict the combustion trajectory, i.e. local temperature and equivalence ratio in the burning zones. The model successfully captures all the expected trends based on the experimental data and even highlights an opportunity for simply using the average reaction temperature and equivalence ratio as an indicator of emissions levels alone without solving formation sub-models.
This general type of modeling effort is not new, but a major effort was made to minimize the calculation duration to enable implementation as an input to real-time next-cycle engine controller Instead of simply using the predicted engine out soot and NOx levels, control decisions could be made based on the trajectory. This has the potential to save large amounts of calibration time because with minor tuning (the model has only one automatically determined constant) it is hoped that the control algorithm would be generally applicable.

AB Advanced combustion techniques have shown promise for achieving high thermal efficiency with simultaneous reductions in oxides of nitrogen (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) emissions. Many advanced combustion studies have used some form of noise-related metric to constrain engine operation, whether it be cylinder pressure rise rate, combustion noise, or ringing intensity. As the development of advanced combustion techniques progresses towards production-viable concepts, combustion noise is anticipated to be of the upmost concern for consumer acceptability. This study compares the noise metrics of cylinder pressure rise rate with combustion noise as measured by an AVL combustion noise meter over a wide range of engine operation conditions with reactivity controlled compression ignition on a light-duty multi-cylinder diesel engine modified to allow for direct injection of diesel fuel and port fuel injection of gasoline. Key parameters affecting noise metrics are engine load, speed, and the amount of boost. The trade-offs between high efficiency, low NOx emissions, and combustion noise were also explored. Additionally, the combustion noise algorithm integrated into the Drivven combustion analysis toolkit is compared to cylinder pressure rise rate and combustion noise as measured with a combustion noise meter. It is shown that the combustion noise of the multi-cylinder reactivity controlled compression ignition map can approach 100 dB while keeping the maximum pressure rise under 100 kPa/CAD.

AB The use of close-coupled post injections of fuel is an in-cylinder soot-reduction technique that has much promise for high efficiency, heavy-duty diesel engines. Close-coupled post injections, short injections of fuel that occur soon after the end of the main fuel injection, have been known to reduce engine-out soot at a wide range of engine operating conditions, including variations in injection timing, EGR level, load, boost, and speed. While many studies have investigated the performance of post injections, the details of the mechanism by which soot is reduced remains unclear. In this study, we have measured the efficacy of post injections over a range of load conditions, at constant speed, boost, and rail pressure, in a heavy-duty, optically-accessible research diesel engine. Here, the base load is varied by changing the main-injection duration. Measurements of engine-out soot indicate that not only does the efficacy of a post injection decrease at higher engine loads, but that the range of post-injection durations over which soot reduction is achievable is limited at higher loads. Optical measurements, including natural luminescence of soot and planar laser-induced incandescence of soot, provide information about the spatio-temporal development of in-cylinder soot through the cycle in cases with and without post injections. The optical results indicate that the post injection behaves similarly at different loads, but that its relative efficacy decreases due to the increase in soot resulting from longer main-injection durations.

AB Advanced technologies combining turbocharging, downsizing, direct injection, and cooled EGR are being intensively investigated in order to significantly improve the fuel economy of spark-ignition (SI) gasoline engines. To avoid the occurrence of knock and to improve the thermal efficiency, a significant fraction of EGR is often used. Due to the significant fraction of EGR, the ignition source needs to be enhanced to ensure high combustion stability. In addition to advanced spark-based solutions, diesel micro-pilot (DMP) technology has been proposed in recent years where the diesel fuel replaces the spark-plug as the ignition source.
This paper studies the combustion characteristics of a diesel micro pilot ignited gasoline engine, employing direct injection of gasoline and diesel as well as turbocharging and cooled EGR. A multi-dimensional CFD code with a chemical kinetic calculation capability was extensively validated across the engine speed and load range in a previous study [1]. This paper explores the influence of a number of parameters on DMP combustion behavior, including: diesel pilot mass fraction, start of injection (SOT), DMP injection strategy, as well as EGR rate, air/fuel ratio, and DI gasoline/air mixture inhomogeneity.
Besides, the comparison of DMP ignited combustion with traditional spark ignited combustion is also made in terms of EGR tolerance, lean burn limit, and DI gasoline air mixture inhomogeneity. Finally, numerical simulations aimed at optimizing both gasoline and diesel injection parameters, as well as EGR rate in order to enhance the engine performance in the DMP combustion mode, are discussed.

AB Both Mo-100 and Cd-116 are zero-neutrino double-beta-decay candidates with J (pi) = 0 (+) and the ground states of the respective intermediate nuclei, Tc-100 and In-116, have J (pi) = 1 (+) . This makes it possible to measure these matrix elements, which turn out to provide a valuable benchmark for testing models. The electron-capture (EC) decay of Tc-100 can also be used to directly determine the efficiency of a potential neutrino detector. However, the experimental determinations of the EC decay branches of interest are challenging because they are only small fractions of the main decays and co-produced radioactivities contribute significant background counts in the regions of interest. This article summarizes our work at Jyvaskyla, where we have taken advantage of the high-purity beams produced at IGISOL in combination with JYFLTRAP to achieve significant improvements in the determinations of the EC branches of Tc-100 and In-116.

AB The energy associated with the decay of fission products plays an important role in the estimation of the amount of heat released by nuclear fuel in reactors. In this article we present results of the study of the beta decay of some refractory isotopes that were considered important contributors to the decay heat in reactors. The measurements were performed at the IGISOL facility of the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. In these studies we have combined for the first time a Penning trap (JYFLTRAP), which was used as a high resolution isobaric separator, with a total absorption spectrometer. The results of the measurements as well as their consequences for decay heat summation calculations are discussed.

AB Hot rolled and annealed AISI 1050 steel cylindrical coupons were flow formed at different levels of deformation (66% and 90% wall thickness reduction). TEM studies revealed development of ultra-fine (sub) grain cell structure due to severe plastic deformation. The transverse subgrain size changed from 10 m (beginning) to 300 nm (66% reduction) to 40 nm (90% reduction). An EBSD study revealed a decreased recrystallization fraction at 90% deformation compared to 66% deformation, caused by orientation pinning from the preferred orientation along {002} planes. No evidence of dislocation pinning or cracking was observed on any samples. The aim of the present work is to study the deformation behaviour and microstructural evolution during the conventional flow forming process. The effect of severe straining on structural changes and strengthening behaviour is also discussed. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Traditional probabilistic methods have been used to evaluate resource adequacy. The increasing presence of variable renewable generation in power systems presents a challenge to these methods because, unlike thermal units, variable renewable generation levels change over time because they are driven by meteorological events. Thus, capacity value calculations for these resources are often performed to simple rules of thumb. This paper follows the recommendations of the North American Electric Reliability Corporation's Integration of Variable Generation Task Force to include variable generation in the calculation of resource adequacy and compares different reliability metrics. Examples are provided using the Western Interconnection footprint under different variable generation penetrations.

AB Probabilistic load flow is becoming a more useful and needed power system analysis technique with the increase of stochastic generation and demand. This paper improves the usefulness of probabilistic load flow by demonstrating an algorithm for modeling voltage regulators within the probabilistic load flow solution. Previously, the voltage regulators have been removed from the system before analysis. The proposed technique is verified by comparing the solutions to those obtained by Monte Carlo simulation.

DE Mesh infrastructure; coupled multiphysics simulations; terrestrial

AB We have developed a sophisticated mesh infrastructure capability to support large scale multiphysics simulations such as subsurface flow and reactive contaminant transport at storage sites as well as the analysis of the effects of a warming climate on the terrestrial arctic. These simulations involve a wide range of coupled processes including overland flow, subsurface flow, freezing and thawing of ice rich soil, accumulation, redistribution and melting of snow, biogeochemical processes involving plant matter and finally, microtopography evolution due to melting and degradation of ice wedges below the surface. In addition to supporting the usual topological and geometric queries about the mesh, the mesh infrastructure adds capabilities such as identifying columnar structures in the mesh, enabling deforming of the mesh subject to constraints and enabling the simultaneous use of meshes of different dimensionality for subsurface and surface processes. The generic mesh interface is capable of using three different open source mesh frameworks (MSTK, MOAB and STKmesh) under the hood allowing the developers to directly compare them and choose one that is best suited for the application's needs. We demonstrate the results of some simulations using these capabilities as well as present a comparison of the performance of the different mesh frameworks. (C) 2014 The Authors.

AB This paper presents an extension of the all-quad meshing algorithm called LayTracks to generate high quality hex and hexdominant meshes of 3D assembly models. LayTracks3D uses the mapping between the Medial Axis ( MA) and the boundary of the 3D domain to decompose complex 3D domains into simpler domains called Tracks. Tracks in 3D are similar to tunnels with no branches and are symmetric, non-intersecting, orthogonal to the boundary, and the shortest path from the MA to the boundary. These properties of tracks result in desired meshes with near cube shape elements at the boundary, structured mesh along the boundary normal with any irregular nodes restricted to the MA, and sharp boundary feature preservation. The algorithm has been tested on a few industrial CAD models and hex-dominant meshes are shown in the result section. The paper also describes how this algorithm can be extended to produce all-hex meshes in general geometries. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID MESH GENERATION; ALGORITHM
AB Automatic, all-hex meshes are required in many environments. However, current methods can produce unacceptable results where geometric features or topologic connectivity impose limiting constraints. Collapsing a small number of edges or faces in an all-hex mesh to produce degenerate hex elements may be sufficient to turn an otherwise unusable mesh into an adequate mesh for computational simulation. We propose a post-processing procedure that will operate on an existing all-hex mesh by identifying and collapsing edges and faces to improve element quality followed by local optimization-based smoothing. We also propose a new metric based upon the scaled Jacobian that can be used to determine element quality of a degenerate hex element. In addition we illustrate the effectiveness of degenerate elements in analysis and provide numerous meshing examples using the sculpt meshing procedure modified to incorporate degeneracies.

AB Recent advances in supercomputers and parallel solver techniques have enabled users to run large simulations problems using millions of processors. Techniques for multiphysics nuclear reactor core simulations are under active development in several countries. Most of these techniques require large unstructured meshes that can be hard to generate in a standalone desktop computers because of high memory requirements, limited processing power, and other complexities. We have previously reported on a hierarchical lattice-based approach for generating reactor core meshes. Here, we describe efforts to exploit coarse-grained parallelism during reactor assembly and reactor core mesh generation processes. We highlight several reactor core examples including a very high temperature reactor, a full-core model of the Korean MONJU reactor, a 1/4 pressurized water reactor core, the fast reactor Experimental Breeder Reactor-II core with a XX09 assembly, and an advanced breeder test reactor core. The times required to generate large mesh models, along with speedups obtained from running these problems in parallel, are reported. A graphical user interface to the tools described here has also been developed. (C) 2014 The Authors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID QUADRILATERAL MESH GENERATION; ALGORITHM; QUAD
AB We introduce a bichromatic Delaunay quadrangulation principle by assigning the vertices of a Delaunay triangulation one of two colors, then discarding edges between vertices of the same color. We present algorithms for generating quadrangulations using this principle and simple refinements. The global vertex coloring ensures that only local refinements are needed to get all quads. This is in contrast to triangle-pairing algorithms, which get stuck with isolated triangles that require global refinement. We present two new sphere-packing algorithms for generating the colored triangulation, and we may also take as input a Delaunay refinement mesh and color it arbitrarily. These mesh non-convex planar domains with provable quality: quad angles in [10 degrees, 174 degrees] and edges in [0.1, 2]r. The algorithms extend to curved surfaces and graded meshes. The "random" algorithm generates points with blue noise. The "advancing-front" algorithm produces large patches of boundary-aligned square tilings. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID LIQUID; SURFACE; MOTION; COLUMN
AB Gas bubbles in liquid generally rise due to buoyancy but can be forced to move downward or to be stably levitated by subjecting the liquid to vibration (Jameson, 1966; Hashimoto and Sudo, 1980; Leighton et al., 1990; Brennen, 1995; Ellenberger and Krishna, 2007). We have performed experiments in a quasi-two-dimensional test cell in which the motion of bubbles can be observed and measured. This paper presents observations and data regarding the generation and motion of levitated bubbles when the vibration conditions are varied.
While bubble downward motion due to the Bjerknes force is well known at acoustic frequencies close to the bubble resonant frequency, these experiments, like those of Ellenberger and Krishna (2007), demonstrate that such effects can be observed at relatively low frequencies as well. Experiments were performed primarily in one of several thin, quasi-two-dimensional rectangular acrylic boxes partially filled with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) silicone oil or deionized water with ambient air above. The apparatus was subjected to sinusoidal axial vibrations for frequencies of 100-300 Hz, displacements up to 200 microns and accelerations up to 35 times standard gravity. Bubbles generated either by direct injection deep in the cell or by free-surface breakup into jets and droplets can, under appropriate vibration conditions, move downward in the test cell, where they are attracted together and merge to form a large coalesced bubble at the base of the cell. That large bubble can then rise until it reaches a location of stable levitation. The bubble damps free surface breakup above it. Under some vibration conditions, the levitated-bubble interface breakup is similar to the free surface breakup into jets and droplets.

AB An important factor to enhance the concentrating solar power plant's efficiency relies on the thermal energy storage (TES) system. A single-tank thermocline storage in which both, the hot and cold, fluids are contained in the same tank separated by density difference is investigated. In theory, the overall efficiency and storage capacity of a TES system depends on the thermodynamic properties of heat transfer fluid (HTF). In this study, Solar Salt is used as both the HTF and TES medium. The operating temperatures used in the system analysis range from 300 degrees C to 500 degrees C. The working temperatures will determine the efficiency of storage and the heat storage capacity. To potentially increase the heat capacity and thermal conductivity values, the molten salt has been doped with SiO2, Al2O3, CuO, Ag and ZnO nanoparticles at different concentrations. The variation of the thermodynamic properties of Solar Salt along with the performance of single-tank TES system were evaluated and compared to obtain the best working composition. The goal. of this study is to comprehend and adapt the behavior of the molten salt doped with nanoparticles. In this study, the effective heat capacity, thermal conductivity, density, and viscosity of Nano-fluid are calculated and used in the models to approximate the total energy storage capacity. The models were evaluated by numerical analysis using finite volume computational fluid dynamics software. The numerical results are compared with experimental results in literature.

AB The feasibility of using liquid Al or B2O3 encapsulated in SiC particles was studied by using thermodynamic analysis and fluid-solid analysis at temperatures ranging from 800 to 1300 degrees C. Alloy melts of the Al-Si and Fe-Al-Si systems were considered for absorbing and desorbing energy for a high temperature energy storage (TES) unit incorporated in a concentrating solar power scheme. Boria was also evaluated instead of metallic melts and compared with the traditional NaNO3-KNO3 molten salt as a TES medium. In addition to determining the enthalpies for sensible heat and phase transformations, the phase equilibrium was determined for possible reactions at the liquid Al/SiC and B2O3/SiC interfaces by calculating their thermodynamic stability. The transport of encapsulated SiC particles within fluid and their effect on the thermal conductivity is discussed toward the efficacy of the thermal energy storage.

AB Two-phase and three-phase Bubble Column Reactors are used in many chemical, petroleum, and bio-systems processing applications such as the hydrogenation of coal slurry to produce synthetic fuels, during the Fischer-Tropsch process. Vertical vibration of a BCR has previously been shown to increase mass transfer, increase void fraction, decrease bubble size and establish interesting flow phenomena through kinetic buoyancy or "Bjerknes force". However, the effect of kinetic buoyancy on the flow field, mass transfer, and flow properties Rich as void fraction is not fully understood. While previous research has focused on the effect of vibration frequency (10 < f < 120 Hz) at low amplitudes, (A <2.5 mm) very little attention has been given to the effect of larger amplitudes. Therefore, a new experimental set up was designed, built, verified by comparison to previous research, and used to collect mass transfer, void fraction, and bubble size data at high amplitude (2.5 mm < A < 9.5 mm) over a frequency range of 7.5-22.5 Hz. Comparison of the results with previous research shows similar local maxima occurring for void fraction and mass transfer, but that an optimum amplitude may exist for mass transfer which is independent of frequency. Statistical analysis and comparison of the results with data from the literature suggests a stronger relationship may exist between kinetic buoyancy and mass transfer than previously theorized.

AB Slurry mixed in vessels via pulse jet mixers has a periodic, rather than steady, concentration profile. Measurements of local concentration taken at the center of the tank at a range of elevations within the mixed region were analyzed to obtain a greater understanding of how the periodic pulse jet mixing cycle affects the local concentration. Data were obtained at the critical suspension velocity, when all solids are suspended at the end of the pulse. The data at a range of solids loadings are analyzed to observe the effect of solids concentration during the suspension and settling portions of the mixing cycle.

AB As the effects of climate change continue to rise with increasing carbon dioxide emission rates, it is imperative that we develop an efficient method for carbon capture. This paper outlines the framework used to break down a large, complex carbon capture system into smaller unit problems for model validation, and uncertainty quantification. We use this framework to investigate the uncertainty and sensitivity of the hydrodynamics of a bubbling fluidized bed. Using the open-source computational fluid dynamics code MFIX we simulate a bubbling fluidized bed with an immersed horizontal tube bank. Mesh resolution and statistical steady state studies are conducted to identify the optimal operating conditions. The preliminary results show good agreement with experimental data from literature. Employing statistical sampling and analysis techniques we designed a set of simulations to quantify the sensitivity of the model to model parameters that are difficult to measure, including: coefficients of restitution, friction angles, packed bed void fraction, and drag models. Initial sensitivity analysis results indicate that no parameters may be omitted. Further uncertainty quantification analysis is underway to investigate and quantify the effects of model parameters on the simulations results.

ID TARGET
AB Pressure waves created in liquid mercury pulsed spallation targets like the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, induce cavitation damage on the target container. The cavitation damage is thought to limit the lifetime of the target for power levels at and above 1 MW. One way to mitigate the damage would be to absorb the pressure pulse energy into a dispersed population of small bubbles, however, creating a bubble size distribution that is sufficiently large and disperse in mercury is challenging due to the high surface tension. Also, measuring the population is complicated by the opacity and the high level of turbulent mixing.
Recent advances in bubble diagnostics by batch sampling the mercury made it possible to compare bubble populations for different techniques in a SNS-1/20th scale test loop. More than 10 bubblers were tested and the most productive bubblers were taken for in-beam testing at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE) WNR user facility. One bubbler design, referred to as the inlet-orifice bubbler, that showed moderate success in creating populations also has an added advantage that it could easily be included in the existing SNS full-scale mercury target configuration. Improvements to the bubbler were planned including a reduction of the nozzle size to choke the gas injection, thus steadying the injected mass flow and allowing multiple nozzles to work off of a common plenum. For the first time, reliable bubble population data are available in the prototypical target geometry and can be compared with populations that mitigated cavitation damage. This paper presents those experimental results.

AB A new Hydro-processed Renewable Diesel (HRD) fuel is comprised of both straight chain and branched alkane fuel components. In an effort to find a research surrogate for this fuel, single cylinder engine testing was performed with various blends of n-hexadecane (cetane) and isocetane in order to find a binary surrogate mixture with similar performance characteristics to that of the HRD. A blend of approximately two-thirds n-hexadecane with one-third isocetane showed the most similar behavior based on conventional combustion metrics. Companion combustion modeling was then pursued using a combined detailed chemical kinetic mechanism for both n-hexadecane and isocetane. These modeling results show both the importance of isocetane in lengthening ignition delay, as well as the overall importance of chemical ignition delay as the dominating effect in the overall ignition delay of these binary blend fuels.

ID TEMPERATURE; COMBUSTION; OXIDATION
AB Fuel injection into the negative valve overlap (NVO) period is a common method for controlling combustion phasing in homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI). as well as other forms of advanced combustion. During this event, at least a portion of the fuel hydrocarbons can be converted to products containing significant levels of H-2 and CO, as well as other short chain hydrocarbons by means of thermal cracking, water-gas shift, and partial oxidation reactions, depending on the availability of oxygen and the time-temperature-pressure history. The resulting products alter the autoignition properties of the combined fuel mixture for HCCI. Fuel-rich chemistry in a partial oxidation environment is also relevant to other high efficiency engine concepts (e.g., the dedicated EGR (D-EGR) concept from SWRI). In this study, we used a unique 6-stroke engine cycle to experimentally investigate the chemistry of a range of fuels injected during NVO under low oxygen conditions. Fuels investigated included iso-octane, iso-butanol, ethanol, and methanol. Products from NVO chemistry were highly dependent on fuel type and injection timing, with isooctane producing less than 1.5% hydrogen and methanol producing more than 8%. We compare the experimental trends with CHEMXIN (single zone, 0-D model) predictions using multiple kinetic mechanisms available in the current literature. Our primary conclusion is that the kinetic mechanisms investigated are unable to accurately predict the magnitude and trends of major species we observed.

AB Past research has shown that combustion of low cetane fuels in CI engines results in higher fuel conversion efficiencies. However, when high-cetane fuels like diesel are substituted with low-cetane fuels like gasoline, the engine operation tends to suffer from high CO emissions at low loads and combustion noise at high loads. In this paper, we present a computational analysis of a light-duty CI engine operating on diesel, kerosene and gasoline. These fuels cover a range of cetane numbers from 46 for diesel to 25 for gasoline. Similar to experiments, the model predicted higher CO at low load operation with gasoline. Predictions of in-cylinder details were utilized to understand differences in combustion characteristics of the three fuels. The in-cylinder mass contours and the evolution of model predicted in-cylinder mixture in phi-T coordinates were then used to explain the emission trends. From the analysis, over-mixing due to early single injection was identified as the reason for high CO with low load gasoline Low Temperature Combustion (LTC). Additional simulations were performed by introducing techniques like cetane enhancement, adding hot EGR and variation of the injection scheme. Their effects on low load gasoline LTC were studied. Finally, it is shown that use of a dual pulse injection scheme with hot EGR helped to reduce the CO emissions for low load gasoline LTC while maintaining low NOx emissions.

AB The U.S. Renewable Fuel Standard requires an increase in the production of ethanol and advanced biofuels up to 36 billion gallons by 2022. Ethanol will be limited to 15 billion gallons, which leaves 21 billion gallons to come from other sources. Due to its high octane number, renewable character, and minimal toxicity, ethanol was believed to be one of the most favorable alternative fuels to displace gasoline in spark ignition engines.
Replacing gasoline with ethanol results in a substantial reduction in vehicle range, and high ethanol content blends can cause material compatibility issues and require adaptive engine calibrations. In addition, ethanol is fully miscible in water which requires blending at distribution sites instead of the refinery. Higher carbon number alcohols, on the other hand, have a higher energy density and lower affinity for water than ethanol, which could mitigate some of the above mentioned issues. However, little information is available on the combustion characteristics of a majority of the longer-chain alcohols.
This study evaluates the combustion properties of higher carbon number alcohols, ranging from ethanol (C2) to hexanol (C6) in a direct-injection, spark-ignition engine. Test fuels are created by splash blending alcohols at a volumetric concentration of 50% with a blendstock for oxygenate blending. Combustion characteristics are evaluated by comparing overall efficiencies as well as heat release characteristics and emissions for a set of representative steady-state operating points. Results suggest that combustion properties of blends of alcohols with carbon numbers from two to six are similar to those of the reference fuel at low and medium engine loads. Properties of blends of alcohols with carbon numbers from two to four are similar to those of the reference fuel even at high loads. However, due to their reduced knock resistance, the suitability of longer chain alcohols, specifically C5 and longer, as blending agents at increased levels is questionable.

AB A state-of-the-art spray modeling methodology, recently presented by Senecal et al. [1, 2], is applied to Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of vaporizing sprays. Simulations of non-combusting Spray A (n-dodecane fuel) from the Engine Combustion Network are performed. An Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) cell size of 0.0625 mm is utilized based on the accuracy/runtime tradeoff demonstrated by Senecal et al. [2]. In that work it was shown that grid convergence of key parameters for non-evaporating and evaporating sprays was achieved for cell sizes between 0.0625 and 0.125 mm using the Dynamic Structure LES model.
The current work presents an extended and more thorough investigation of Spray A using multi-dimensional spray modeling and the Dynamic Structure LES model. Twenty different realizations are simulated by changing the random number seed used in the spray sub-models. Multi-realization (ensemble) averaging is shown to be necessary when comparing to local spray measurements of quantities such as mixture fraction and gas-phase velocity. Through a detailed analysis, recommendations are made regarding the minimum number of LES realizations required for accurate prediction of Diesel sprays. Finally, the effect of a spray primary breakup model constant on the results is assessed.

AB A state-of-the-art, grid-convergent simulation methodology was applied to three-dimensional calculations of a single-cylinder optical engine. A mesh resolution study on a sector-based version of the engine geometry further verified the RANS-based cell size recommendations previously presented by Senecal et al. [1]. Convergence of cylinder pressure, flame lift-off length and emissions was achieved for an adaptive mesh refinement cell size of 0.35 mm. Full geometry simulations, using mesh settings derived from the grid convergence study, resulted in excellent agreement with measurements of cylinder pressure, heat release rate and NOx emissions. On the other hand, the full geometry simulations indicated that the flame lift-off length is not converged at 0.35 mm for jets not aligned with the computational mesh. Further simulations suggested that the flame lift-off lengths for both the non-aligned and aligned jets appear to be converged at 0.175 mm. With this increased mesh resolution, both the trends and magnitudes in flame lift-off length were well predicted with the current simulation methodology. Good agreement between the overall predicted flame behavior and the available chemiluminescence measurements was also achieved. The present study indicates that cell-size requirements for accurate prediction of full geometry flame lift-off lengths may be stricter than those for global combustion behavior. This may be important when accurate soot predictions are required.

ID REACTION-MECHANISMS; FUELS; REDUCTION; OXIDATION; SURROGATE
AB The current study compares the predictions by four different published mechanisms in literature which have been used for 3 dimensional compression ignition engine simulations. These four mechanisms use two different sets of surrogates: (a) methyl decanoate, methyl 9-decenoate, and n-heptane, (b) methyl butanoate and n-heptane. The mechanisms include: (1) 115 species and 460 reactions [1] using surrogate mixture (a); (2) 77 species and 209 reactions [2] using surrogate mixture (a); (3) 145 species and 869 reactions [3] using surrogate mixture (b); (4) 41 species and 150 reactions [4] using surrogate mixture (b). The different reduction techniques implemented to obtain the reduced mechanisms from the detailed mechanisms are briefly described. The surrogate mixture compositions are then modified to match the cetane number of the real biodiesel fuels. The experimental data for comparison include jet-stirred reactor data for species concentrations for biodiesel derived from rapeseed oil and 3 dimensional constant volume combustion data (for ignition, combustion, and emission characteristics), engine data (for pressure, heat release rate, and emission characteristics) for soyderived biodiesel. 0-D and 3-D constant volume simulations with all the mechanisms can capture the general experimental trends quite well. Large surrogate models and mechanisms tend to provide better predictions at the expense of increased computational costs. The 115 species and 460 reaction mechanism was observed to perform the best among the mechanisms in predicting the jet-stirred reactor and 3-D constant volume data. It was observed that all the mechanisms are able to qualitatively capture the engine performance and emission characteristics.

AB Spark plugs utilizing a 3-wire electrode are standard in most automotive engines and have been for decades. However, innumerable alternative spark plug designs have been introduced. This paper examines the potential benefit of one particular alternative electrode geometry in a high-performance automotive engine. The alternative spark plug that is investigated is a commercially available aftermarket unit. The testing included detailed analysis of both brake and indicated parameters including MEP and burn rates. Testing was conducted under both steady state and transient conditions, and encompassed multiple induction systems and test fuels including E85. The test engine was a commercially available high performance aftermarket engine assembly intended for motorsports.
This paper includes the optimal settings for ignition timing and lambda and the process by which those values were determined. The combustion analysis shows the alternative spark plug electrode resulted in an increased early burn rate, which in turn lead to an overall advancing of the combustion phasing. To better decouple combustion phasing effects from test to test variation on brake output parameters, an empirical model is developed and exercised. The model describes the expected change in brake output resulting from the shift in combustion phasing induced by the alternative spark plug geometry.

AB Fuel injectors often experience cavitation due to regions of extremely low pressure. In this work, a cavitation modeling method is implemented in the CONVERGE CFD code to model the flow in fuel injectors. CONVERGE includes a Cartesian mesh based flow solver. In this solver, a Volume Of Fluid (VOF) method is used to simulate the multiphase flow. The cavitation model is based on a flash-boiling method with rapid heat transfer between the liquid and vapor phases. In this method, a homogeneous relaxation model is used to describe the rate at which the instantaneous quality, the mass fraction of vapor in a two-phase mixture, will tend towards its equilibrium value. The model is first validated with the nozzle flow case of Winklhofer by comparing the mass flow rate with experimentally measured values at different outlet pressures. The cavitation contour shape is also compared with the experimental observations. Flow in the Engine Combustion Network Spray-A nozzle configuration is simulated. The mesh dependency is also studied in this work followed by validation against discharge coefficient data. Finally, calculations of a five-hole injector, including moving needle effects, are compared to experimental measurements.

We posit that not only can SOA-based integration of research software be useful in enterprise business use cases, but also that providing ways to integrate domain-specific and enterprise data is beneficial. We describe use cases driving our work, our data fusion service and its analytic capabilities, and our integration efforts using an open-source enterprise service bus framework.

AB How do you monitor (verify) a CTBT? It is a difficult challenge to monitor the entire world for nuclear tests, regardless of size. Nuclear tests "normally" occur underground, above ground or underwater. Setting aside very small tests (let's limit our thinking to 1 kiloton or more), nuclear tests shake the ground, emit large amounts of radioactivity, and make loud noises if in the atmosphere (or hydroacoustic waves if underwater).

AB On-site inspection (OSI) is a critical part of the verification regime for the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). The OSI verification regime provides for international inspectors to make a suite of measurements and observations on site at the location of an event of interest. The other critical component of the verification regime is the International Monitoring System (IMS), which is a globally distributed network of monitoring stations. The IMS along with technical monitoring data from CTBT member countries, as appropriate, will be used to trigger an OSI. After the decision is made to carry out an OSI, it is important for the inspectors to deploy to the field site rapidly to be able to detect short-lived phenomena such as the aftershocks that may be observable after an underground nuclear explosion. The inspectors will be on site from weeks to months and will be working with many tens of tons of equipment. Parts of the OSI regime will be tested in a field exercise in the country of Jordan late in 2014. The build-up of the OSI regime has been proceeding steadily since the CTBT was signed in 1996 and is on track to becoming a deterrent to someone considering conducting a nuclear explosion in violation of the Treaty.

DE Nuclear; nonproliferation; resilience
AB This paper introduces the concept of systems resilience as a new framework for thinking about the future of the nonproliferation regime. Resilience refers to the ability of a system to maintain its vital functions in the face of continuous and unpredictable change. First, I make the case that the nonproliferation regime can be viewed as a complex system. Next, I discuss key themes from the literature on systems resilience and apply them to the nonproliferation system: the difference between resilience and stability; the need for evolution to maintain function; the importance of functional diversity; and the concept of the adaptive cycle. I show that most existing nonproliferation strategies are aimed at stability rather than resilience and that the current nonproliferation system may be over-constrained by the cumulative evolution of strategies. According to the literature on systems resilience, this increases its vulnerability to collapse. I argue that the resilience of the nonproliferation system can be enhanced by increasing international participation in setting the nonproliferation agenda, developing general international response capabilities, focusing on non-coercive approaches to decreasing demand, and applying systems thinking more rigorously to nonproliferation.

AB The threat of nuclear terrorism is real and poses a significant challenge to both U.S. and global security. For terrorists, the challenge is not so much the actual design of an improvised nuclear device (IND) but more the acquisition of the special nuclear material (SNM), either highly enriched uranium (HEU) or plutonium, to make the fission weapon. This paper provides two examples of technical solutions that were developed in support of the nonproliferation objective of reducing the opportunity for acquisition of HEU. The first example reviews technologies used to monitor centrifuge enrichment plants to determine if there is any diversion of uranium materials or misuse of facilities to produce undeclared product. The discussion begins with a brief overview of the basics of uranium processing and enrichment. The role of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), its safeguard objectives and how the technology evolved to meet those objectives will be described. The second example focuses on technologies developed and deployed to monitor the blend down of 500 metric tons of HEU from Russia's dismantled nuclear weapons to reactor fuel or low enriched uranium (LEU) under the U.S.-Russia HEU Purchase Agreement. This reactor fuel was then purchased by U.S. fuel fabricators and provided about half the fuel for the domestic power reactors. The Department of Energy established the HEU Transparency Program to provide confidence that weapons usable HEU was being blended down and thus removed from any potential theft scenario. Two measurement technologies, an enrichment meter and a flow monitor, were combined into an automated blend down monitoring system (BDMS) and were deployed to four sites in Russia to provide 24/7 monitoring of the blend down. Data was downloaded and analyzed periodically by inspectors to provide the assurances required.

AB The detection of nuclear or radioactive materials for homeland or national security purposes is inherently difficult. This is one reason detection efforts must be seen as just one part of an overall nuclear defense strategy which includes, inter alia, material security, detection, interdiction, consequence management and recovery. Nevertheless, one could argue that there has been a revolution in detection affairs in the past several decades as the innovative application of new technology has changed the character and conduct of detection operations. This revolution will likely be most effectively reinforced in the coming decades with the networking of detectors and innovative application of anomaly detection algorithms.

AB X-ray polarimetry promises to give qualitatively new information about high-energy astrophysical sources, such as binary black hole systems, micro-quasars, active galactic nuclei, and gamma-ray bursts. We designed, built and tested a hard X-ray polarimeter, X-Calibur, to be used in the focal plane of the balloon-borne InFOCuS grazing incidence hard X-ray telescope. X-Calibur combines a low-Z Compton scatterer with a CZT detector assembly to measure the polarization of 20-60 ke V X-rays making use of the fact that polarized photons Compton scatter preferentially perpendicular to the electric field orientation. The X-Cali bur detector assembly is completed, tested, and calibrated; a first flight is scheduled from Ft. Sumner, NM, in fall 2014. In principal, a similar space-borne experiment could be operated in the 5-100 keV regime. X-Cali bur achieves a high detection efficiency of order unity.

AB TaOx and TiO2 memristors have been irradiated with 800 keY Ta ions, 28 MeV Si ions, and 10 keY X-rays. TaOx devices were also irradiated with 70 keY electrons. Displacement damage effects are studied using 800 keY Ta ions and both technologies show changes in resistance for fluences greater than 10(10) cm(-2). TaOx devices show gradual resistance degradation in the off-state with increasing fluence. TiO2 devices show gradual inconsistent increases in off-state resistance with inconsistent abrupt decreases. TaOx devices show more stability and consistent off-state resistances than TiO2 devices. Ionization effects are investigated using 28 MeV Si ions, 70 keY electrons, and 10 keY X-rays. During 28 MeV Si irradiation, both technologies change from the off-state to the on-state when a critical ionizing dose is reached without applying voltage or current to the device. The critical threshold is calculated using SRIM to be on the order of 60 Mrad(Si) or higher. 10 keY X-ray irradiation of doses up to 18 Mrad(Si) per step show little effect on either technology. A single TaOx device irradiated with 70 keY electrons changed from the off-state to the on-state at a calculated dose on the order of 100 krad(Si), suggesting a difference in charge yield compared to the 28 MeV Si irradiation.

AB Accurate object tracking has become increasingly important with developments in Lidar and high-resolution camera systems for remote surveillance. Typical methods utilize Markov Chain state estimation paired with Kalman or particle filters. These methods, however, are susceptible to loss of track if an error is encountered or a loss of image occurs. We developed a set of algorithms built on more recent efforts that have been aimed at reconstructing the three-dimensional trajectory of the object. These methods typically require a priori information about the target being tracked when using a single camera. We attempt to accomplish trajectory reconstruction without information about the system beyond a known camera matrix. Using feature locations extracted from a series of images combined with the associated camera matrices, we generate a linear system of equations relating the image coordinates in two-dimensional projective space to the real-world three-dimensional coordinates. We use this system of equations to generate a least-squares polynomial fit for the data. The resulting system of equations successfully recovers polynomial equations of motion and outperforms Taylor approximations of equal degree outside of the convergent region. Introducing translational errors causes the error-minimizing angle combination to differ from the single most likely analytic angle combination. We employ a mean-approximating method to generate an adjusted angular value and demonstrate this represents an improvement in accuracy over the analytic solution.

AB The performance of a 127 element phased array laser system is simulated for the case of an extended target in the presence of strong atmospheric turbulence. The phases of the individual sub-apertures of a phased array laser system can be controlled to compensate for the beam quality degradation caused by atmospheric turbulence. This is done by setting the phases of the sub-apertures to the conjugate of the phase received from a beacon located at the target. As the level of turbulence increases, the ability of an adaptive optics system to correct for turbulence decreases; the quality of this compensation decreases due to increases in both scintillation and fitting error. In the case where the laser system itself is used to create the beacon on an extended target, the quality of the beacon produced is also degraded by this atmospheric turbulence and this further impacts the quality of the compensation. This study simulates a 10 km tactical engagement to quantify the performance impacts due to turbulence, and the portion of this impact due to the inability of the system to form a perfect beacon in these conditions. Performance is measured by both Strehl ratio and power delivered within a near diffraction limited circle. Results are presented comparing uncompensated, compensated with a perfect beacon, and compensated with simulated beacon cases as the level of turbulence increases.

ID ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS; MEMORIES
AB This paper evaluates the effects of ionizing radiation on tantalum oxide (TaOx) memristors. The data obtained from Co-60 gamma ray and 10 keV X-ray ionizing radiation experiments indicate that it is possible for the devices to switch from a high resistance off-state to a low resistance on-state after a total ionizing dose (TID) step stress threshold has been surpassed. During irradiation, the devices were floating, grounded, or biased with a 1 Hz square wave with an amplitude of +/- 100 mV. While floating the terminals is not a typical bias condition within a circuit, it is speculated that this condition might be worst-case because of the lack of a discharge path. If a read measurement is performed prior to reaching the charge threshold, the devices 'reset' back to a pre-irradiation state. This suggests that the devices do not have a cumulative TID effect. However, it was observed that having a continuous bias on the device during the TID exposure did not always have the same effect. The TID threshold level at which the devices switch resistance states varies from device to device; the enhanced susceptibility observed in some devices is still under investigation. After a radiation-induced resistance change, all of the devices could be reset and still functioned properly. When the devices were set into a low resistance on-state prior to irradiation, there was not a significant variation in the resistance post-irradiation (i.e., the devices were still in the on-state). Overall, the memristor TID performance is promising and could potentially enable the discovery of a radiation-hardened nonvolatile memory technology to be used in space and aerospace applications.

TI Universal Auto-Calibration For A Rapid Battery Impedance Spectrum
Measurement Device

CT IEEE Aerospace Conference
CY MAR 01-08, 2014
CL Big Sky, MT

AB Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy has been shown to be a valuable tool for diagnostics and prognostics of energy storage devices such as batteries and ultra-capacitors. Although measurements have been typically confined to laboratory environments, rapid impedance spectrum measurement techniques have been developed for on-line, embedded applications as well. The prototype hardware for the rapid technique has been validated using lithium-ion batteries, but issues with calibration had also been identified. A new, universal automatic calibration technique was developed to address the identified issues while also enabling a more simplified approach. A single, broad-frequency range is used to calibrate the system and then scaled to the actual range and conditions used when measuring a device under test. The range used for calibration must be broad relative to the expected measurement conditions for the scaling to be successful. Validation studies were performed by comparing the universal calibration approach with data acquired from targeted calibration ranges based on the expected range of performance for the device under test. First, a mid-level shunt range was used for calibration and used to measure devices with lower and higher impedance. Next, a high-excitation current level was used for calibration, followed by measurements using lower currents. Finally, calibration was performed over a wide frequency range and used to measure test articles with a lower set of frequencies. In all cases, the universal calibration approach compared very well with results acquired following a targeted calibration. Additionally, the shunts used for the automated calibration technique were successfully characterized such that the rapid impedance measurements compare very well with laboratory-scale measurements. These data indicate that the universal approach can be successfully used for on board rapid impedance spectra measurements for a broad set of test devices and range of measurement conditions.

AB RNA-seq, next-generation sequencing (NGS) applied to RNA, is rapidly becoming the platform of choice for gene expression profiling. Existing methods, mostly parametric, describe the expression level of a gene or transcript by a single number that summarizes all reads mapped to that gene or transcript. However, assay noise often makes such parametric models unwieldy, non-intuitive, and difficult to implement. To overcome these limitations, we have developed a nonparametric approach, based on functional principal component analysis (FPCA), to differential expression estimation. Our approach, named DE-FPCA, represents the expression profile of a gene by a random curve, which is modeled as a linear combination of orthogonal functional principal components (FPCs), and tests differential expression between two groups of samples using a statistic defined by the FPC scores. We applied our method to 26 RNA-seq samples collected in Drosophila melanogaster. This application demonstrates that our new FPCA-based test statistic has substantial power to detect differential usage of exons and isoforms, in addition to gene-level differential expression, and is robust to random fluctuations in the RNA-seq data.

AB A fundamental understanding of the physical processes, which contribute to efficient mobile carrier generation and transport in organic solar cells, remains under debate. We explore the role that spectroscopic and electrical techniques have played in understanding the processes relevant to photogeneration of charge carriers and the interplay between recombination and collection of photogenerated charge carriers. An inexhaustive survey of the way in which sets of measurement techniques complement each other or have presented conflicting sets of data on the same materials systems, and continue to shape popular perception of photovoltaic current generation in bulk heterojunction (BHJ) systems is presented.

AB Automatic fusion of aerial optical imagery and untextured LiDAR data has been of significant interest for generating photo-realistic 3D urban models in recent years. However, unsupervised, robust registration still remains a challenge. This paper presents a new registration method that does not require priori knowledge such as GPS/INS information. The proposed algorithm is based on feature correspondence between a LiDAR depth map and a depth map from an optical image. Each optical depth map is generated from edge-preserving dense correspondence between the image and another optical image, followed by ground plane estimation and alignment for depth consistency. Our two-pass RANSAC with Maximum Likelihood estimation incorporates 2D-2D and 2D-3D correspondences to yield robust camera pose estimation. Experiments with a LiDAR-optical imagery dataset show promising results, without using initial pose information.

AB In this article, selective and sensitive detection of trace amounts of 2, 4, 6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) is demonstrated. The screening system is based on a sampling/concentrator front end and electrochemical potentiometric gas sensors as the detector. Preferential hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide(s) mixed potential sensors with integrated heaters were used to capture the signature of the explosive. Quantitative measurements based on hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide sensor responses indicated that the detector sensitivity scaled proportionally with the mass of the explosives (down to 250 ng). The sensitivity was found to increase with increasing flow rate.

AB Meeting EPA Tier 3 emissions reduction requirements while simultaneously increasing fuel economy to meet new CAFE standards will require optimization of advanced combustion strategies and emissions control technologies. There is an immediate need for suitable exhaust gas sensor technologies to monitor internal combustion engine tailpipe emissions and to control and maintain efficient operation of the engine and exhaust after treatment systems. NH3, NOx, and HC sensors could enable onboard diagnostics and combustion control in lean-burn engines, analogous to the role of O-2 sensors in stoichiometric burn engines. Commercial manufacturing methods have been used to fabricate self-heated mixed-potential sensors in a planar automotive configuration. By altering materials composition and operating conditions, we are able to obtain sensitivity/selectivity to each NH3, NOx and HCs. Additionally, these devices exhibit stable performance over months of testing as a result of the stable morphology of the electrode/electrolyte/gas three-phase interface.

AB The Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (SOCAT), an activity of the international marine carbon research community, provides access to synthesis and gridded fCO(2) (fugacity of carbon dioxide) products for the surface oceans. Version 2 of SOCAT is an update of the previous release (version 1) with more data (increased from 6.3 million to 10.1 million surface water fCO(2) values) and extended data coverage (from 1968-2007 to 1968-2011). The quality control criteria, while identical in both versions, have been applied more strictly in version 2 than in version 1. The SOCAT website (http://www.socat.info/) has links to quality control comments, metadata, individual data set files, and synthesis and gridded data products. Interactive online tools allow visitors to explore the richness of the data. Applications of SOCAT include process studies, quantification of the ocean carbon sink and its spatial, seasonal, year-to-year and longer-term variation, as well as initialisation or validation of ocean carbon models and coupled climate-carbon models.

AB Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere is important to better understand the global carbon cycle, support the development of climate policies, and project future climate change. Here we describe data sets and a methodology to quantify all major components of the global carbon budget, including their uncertainties, based on the combination of a range of data, algorithms, statistics and model estimates and their interpretation by a broad scientific community. We discuss changes compared to previous estimates, consistency within and among components, alongside methodology and data limitations. CO2 emissions from fossil-fuel combustion and cement production (E-FF) are based on energy statistics, while emissions from land-use change (E-LUC), mainly deforestation, are based on combined evidence from land-cover change data, fire activity associated with deforestation, and models. The global atmospheric CO2 concentration is measured directly and its rate of growth (G(ATM)) is computed from the annual changes in concentration. The mean ocean CO2 sink (S-OCEAN) is based on observations from the 1990s, while the annual anomalies and trends are estimated with ocean models. The variability in SOCEAN is evaluated for the first time in this budget with data products based on surveys of ocean CO2 measurements. The global residual terrestrial CO2 sink (S-LAND) is estimated by the difference of the other terms of the global carbon budget and compared to results of independent dynamic global vegetation models forced by observed climate, CO2 and land cover change (some including nitrogen-carbon interactions). All uncertainties are reported as +/- 1 sigma, reflecting the current capacity to characterise the annual estimates of each component of the global carbon budget. For the last decade available (2003-2012), E-FF was 8.6 +/- 0.4 GtC yr(-1), E-LUC 0.9 +/- 0.5 GtC yr(-1), G(ATM) 4.3 +/- 0.1 GtC yr(-1), S-OCEAN 2.5 +/- 0.5 GtC yr(-1), and S-LAND 2.8 +/- 0.8 GtC yr(-1). For year 2012 alone, E-FF grew to 9.7 +/- 0.5 GtC yr(-1), 2.2% above 2011, reflecting a continued growing trend in these emissions, GATM was 5.1 +/- 0.2 GtC yr(-1), S-OCEAN was 2.9 +/- 0.5 GtC yr(-1), and assuming an E-LUC of 1.0 +/- 0.5 GtC yr(-1) (based on the 2001-2010 average), S-LAND was 2.7 +/- 0.9 GtC yr(-1). G(ATM) was high in 2012 compared to the 2003-2012 average, almost entirely reflecting the high EFF. The global atmospheric CO2 concentration reached 392.52 +/- 0.10 ppm averaged over 2012. We estimate that E-FF will increase by 2.1% (1.1-3.1 %) to 9.9 +/- 0.5 GtC in 2013, 61% above emissions in 1990, based on projections of world gross domestic product and recent changes in the carbon intensity of the economy. With this projection, cumulative emissions of CO2 will reach about 535 +/- 55 GtC for 1870-2013, about 70% from E-FF (390 +/- 20 GtC) and 30% from E-LUC (145 +/- 50 GtC).
This paper also documents any changes in the methods and data sets used in this new carbon budget from previous budgets (Le Quere et al., 2013). All observations presented here can be downloaded from the Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (doi: 10.3334/CDIAC/GCP_2013_V2.3).

AB In an intensifying effort to track ocean change and distinguish between natural and anthropogenic drivers, sustained ocean time series measurements are becoming increasingly important. Advancements in the ocean carbon observation network over the last decade, such as the development and deployment of Moored Autonomous pCO(2) (MAPCO(2)) systems, have dramatically improved our ability to characterize ocean climate, sea-air gas exchange, and biogeochemical processes. The MAPCO(2) system provides high-resolution data that can measure interannual, seasonal, and sub-seasonal dynamics and constrain the impact of short-term biogeochemical variability on carbon dioxide (CO2) flux. Overall uncertainty of the MAPCO(2) using in situ calibrations with certified gas standards and post-deployment standard operating procedures is <2 mu atm for seawater partial pressure of CO2 (pCO(2)) and <1 mu atm for air pCO(2). The MAPCO(2) maintains this level of uncertainty for over 400 days of autonomous operation. MAPCO(2) measurements are consistent with shipboard seawater pCO(2) measurements and GLOBALVIEW-CO2 boundary layer atmospheric values. Here we provide an open-ocean MAPCO(2) data set including over 100 000 individual atmospheric and seawater pCO(2) measurements on 14 surface buoys from 2004 through 2011 and a description of the methods and data quality control involved. The climate-quality data provided by the MAPCO(2) have allowed for the establishment of open-ocean observatories to track surface ocean pCO(2) changes around the globe. Data are available at doi:10.3334/CDIAC/OTG.TSM_NDP092 and http://cdiac.ornl.gov/oceans/Moorings/ndp092.

AB Power switching devices fabricated using wide bandgap (WBG) semiconductors such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) have the potential to make transformative impact on electrical energy generation, transmission, distribution, conditioning, and utilization [1]. Although SiC power diodes and power MOSFETs are commercially available for voltage ratings up to 1,700 volts, a careful review of the datasheets suggests severe shortcomings and the need for improved consistency, parameter definition and standardization in order for application engineers to adapt this new technology with trust and confidence. This paper provides a critique of WBG datasheets with recommendations for specific improvements.

AB Design and experimental results of a scalable and modular air-cooled power inverter using commercial SiC power MOSFETs are reported. Compared to the well-established silicon IGBT power inverter, the new SiC power MOSFET inverter offers 40% more output power and 4% higher efficiency for a 10kW, 20kHz air-cooled design. A detailed design and performance tradeoff is presented from a system-level perspective in terms of cost/kW for SiC inverter for vehicle electrification and power generation applications. The design is based on a simple circuit simulation model developed from measurements made on commercially available packaged discrete SiC power MOSFETs.

AB In this work, we have characterized a variety of SiC devices (first-and second-generation 1200 V SiC MOSFETs and 1200 V SiC JFETs) with regards to threshold voltage shifts and leakage currents at high temperatures under both static and dynamic gate bias stress conditions. It was found that, although the stability of SiC MOSFETs has increased dramatically from the first-to the second-generation due to an increase in the quality of the gate oxide layer, SiC JFET devices (which lack a gate oxide altogether) are much more stable with respect to Delta V-T for both types of gate bias stresses at high temperatures. We have also characterized the interface trap density (D-IT) in SiC MOSFETs based solely on changes in the sub-threshold slope of the devices' I-V curves under elevated temperature and bias stress, and have produced Delta D-IT profiles showing relative changes in interfacial defect concentration at energy levels referenced to the calculated surface potential at the threshold voltage. We have found that the defect density of second-generation SiC MOSFETs is almost an order of magnitude lower than similar first-generation devices from the same manufacturer, consistent with the decreased V-T shifts seen in voltage/temperature stress experiments.

AB A complete and simple methodology to model SiC Power MOSFETs is presented in this paper. A simple and accurate model is defined in SPICE language. The core of the model is a Level 1 MOSFET, accounting for temperature dependence and voltage dependence of the gate-drain capacitance. All the values used to define these components can be easily extracted from measurements and/or datasheet. The model finds the best trade-off between simplicity and accuracy, required to perform fast and efficient simulations of power converters.

ID HOT-WALL REACTOR; SILICON-CARBIDE; GROWTH; MODEL
AB One of the challenges in modeling epitaxial growth is to establish a connection between the experimental conditions and microstructure and epitaxial quality of the films. At the core of this problem is the need to have accurate models of the heterogeneous chemistry during epitaxy that can bridge reactor scale with atomic scale simulations and take into account the impact of film microstructure. In this work we focus on the heterogeneous chemistry models for SiC epitaxy by CVD. First, we carry out a sensitivity analysis of existing models in the literature, and we identify their limitations as well as the main reaction pathways that can be found at different experimental conditions. We then cast these models in the context of the step-flow growth. This allow us to rationalize the expected dependence of the different sticking probability values on the miscut angle and, more generally, on the surface terrace to step site ratio. Finally we show how these models can be used to bridge reactor-scale and atomistic simulations by providing sticking probabilities that depend on the surface morphology and the atomistic details of gas-surface interaction.

This paper evaluates the performance of silicon carbide (SiC) power MOSFETs and the design and evaluation of a digital control system for dc-dc converters to power electromagnets at Argonne National Laboratory's Advanced Photon Source. It is shown that the same control system used for a silicon IGBT may be applicable for a SiC power MOSFET in order to achieve the overall system stability while achieving significant reduction in power losses.

However, limited availability, high cost, unproven application-level field-reliability, inaccurate and incomplete datasheets from the manufacturers, and most importantly - lack of trust and true collaboration among the WBG supply chain industries - are severely hindering the large-scale commercialization of WBG power conversion technology. Although SiC power diodes and power MOSFETs are commercially available for voltage ratings up to 1,700 volts from a couple of manufacturers, a careful review of the published literature and commercial product datasheets suggests that performance and reliability of these devices may be severely compromised compared to silicon power devices. For example, limited reported data available for dv/dt, avalanche, and safe-operating area (SOA) parameters of SiC power diodes and MOSFETs are inferior to silicon power devices with identical ratings. This paper presents a simple physics-based analysis of power-handling capability of WBG power devices, and explains the possible causes of limited performance and reliability of SiC power devices.

AB To improve the efficiency of a solar cell application, two areas of focus are necessary. The first is to improve the quality of the solar panels; and the second is to increase the inverter efficiency, which can be accomplished by using high frequency switches with low on-state and switching losses. GaN has a significantly bigger bandgap compared to Si material, resulting in higher breakdown voltage. Also, the channel lengths of GaN MOSFETs are smaller and, therefore, have smaller gate-to-source and drain-to-source capacitance. In this work, different GaN switches are characterized through their steady state and switching characteristics. Also, the use of GaN switches in some Solantro Semiconductor Corp. applications and a comparison of the total power losses of Si and SiC switches are also presented.

AB Accurate estimation of switching losses is difficult in SiC power MOSFET's because of their low on-state resistance and small inter electrode capacitances. Even a small parasitic component present in the power switching measurement circuitry can cause significant error in the measured loss due to circuit ringing. This paper presents an approach to accurately estimate the switching losses in a high-speed low on-resistance SiC power MOSFET using a combination of circuit modeling and switching measurements.

AB Binary mixtures of ionic liquids (ILs) were prepared and characterized to obtain ILs with viscosity and conductivity properties optimized for use in energy storage devices such as supercapacitors. The bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide anion (NTf2-) was the common anion for both ILs in the mixture. Ethoxyethyl was the common substituent on the minor component (solute) and the major component (solvent), as ether substituents have been shown to lower the viscosity of ILs. N-Ethoxyethyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium NTf2 was used as the major component for all of the IL mixtures. The solutes were either monocationic or dicationic and made up 10 % of the binary mixture by weight. We report here on the physical properties of the individual ILs and their binary mixtures.

AB The heat treatment of nickel (Ni) nanowires (NiNWs) in oxygen is examined for its effect on platinum (Pt) galvanic displacement and the activity of Pt-coated NiNWs (PtNiNWs) in the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR). Annealing of NiNWs in oxygen is found to reduce Pt displacement, increasing its resistance to potential-driven dissolution (during electrochemical break-in). In reducing Ni dissolution, oxophilic species are provided in close proximity to Pt sites and the MOR activity of PtNiNWs improves, particularly at low overpotential in rotating disk electrode half-cells.

AB Several years ago, the answer to this question was negative based on the criteria for an anode with <0.1 mg cm(-2) of platinum group metals to perform similarly without and with 50 ppm CO in hydrogen proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Now, with the amount of CO impurities reduced to 10 ppm in reformates, a <1% performance loss with a 1.5% air-bleed has become a reasonable target. The CO-tolerant catalyst also needs to be dissolution resistant up to 0.93 V, viz., the potential experienced at the anode during startup and shutdown of the fuel cells. We recently demonstrated our ability to simultaneously enhance activity and stability by using single crystalline Ru@Pt core-shell nanocatalysts. Here, we report that the performance target with reformates was met using bilayer-thick Ru@Pt core-shell nanocatalysts with 0.047 mg cm(-2) Pt and 0.024 mg cm(-2) Ru loading, supporting a positive prognosis for the economically viable use of reformates in PEMFC applications.

AB Current proton exchange membrane fuel cell uses precious metal such as platinum as the catalyst to promote electrochemical reactions at both electrodes, which presents a significant cost barrier for large scale fuel cell commercialization. To replace precious metal with other low cost, earth-abundant materials represents a critical yet incredible challenging area in future fuel cell research. To compete with the precious metal based catalyst, the non-platinum group metal (non-PGM) materials must have higher active site density and improved turn-over-frequency. In this report, we discuss a new method of preparing "support-free", low-cost non-PGM catalysts produced by using "one-pot" synthesized metal-organic frameworks. The new approach led to the formation of catalysts with high-density of active site and high efficiency towards the oxygen reduction reaction in the acidic medium, measured by rotating disk electrode in oxygen saturated electrolyte and under single fuel cell operating condition.

AB This paper reports the development of a model for simulating polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) with non-precious metal catalyst (NPMC) cathodes. NPMCs present an opportunity to dramatically reduce the cost of PEFC electrodes by removing the costly Pt catalyst. To address the significant transport losses in thick NPMC cathodes (ca. > 60 mu m), we developed a hierarchical electrode model that resolves the unique structure of the NPMCs we studied. A unique feature of the approach is the integration of the model with morphology data extracted from nano-scale resolution X-ray computed tomography (nano-CT) imaging of the electrodes. A notable finding is the impact of the liquid water accumulation in the electrode and the significant performance improvement possible if electrode flooding is mitigated.

AB In this work, a novel systematic bottom-up approach in the investigation of the role of each component in non-precious metal ORR electrocatalysts is developed. Liquid-phase exfoliated graphite and graphene oxide were used as model two-dimensional carbon precursors. Nitrogen doping of these precursors was achieved via high-temperature ammonia treatment, as well as a novel technique of energetic neutral atom beam lithography/epitaxy (ENABLE), introduced for the first time. ENABLE offers the ability of working at high kinetic energies, overcoming high thermal limitation barriers, and allowing for direct chemical bond activation of graphitic systems at lower temperatures. The correlation of chemical-structure to ORR activity of these model nitrogen-doped systems was investigated using ultrathin film electrodes.

ID DEGRADATION
AB Polymer electrolyte fuel cell membranes are degraded by oxygen free radical attack. The addition of cerium oxide and doped cerium oxide nanoparticles improves membrane stability as measured by open circuit voltage and low humidity accelerated stress testing. In this work we varied the crystallite size of ceria nanoparticles and investigated their role in enhancing durability of the PEM fuel cell. We found that the ratio of the free radical production to hydrogen peroxide decomposition rates provides a novel approach to characterize the efficiency of free radical scavenging catalysts. Nanoparticle crystallite size and doping plays a significant role in determining the surface area normalized efficiency of ceria based free radical scavengers.

AB The net water drag in a polymer electrolyte fuel cell is a result of a variety of transport processes. There is often a need to tailor the water balance to achieve higher performance under dry operating conditions. The motivation of this collected work is to understand the methods by which we can control the water transport in a PEFC via engineering of the components and architecture. Experimental and numerical models have been developed to measure and predict this, and various pathways for control of water storage and transport will be discussed. In particular, control of the micro and macroporous layer thermal and mass transport resistance, cell architecture, and microporous layer vertical bar catalyst layer interface will be shown to be capable of manipulating the net water storage and drag coefficient.

AB Perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomer is a key component within electrode layers for the polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) since the solid electrolyte enables proton transport to the active catalyst site. Both the through-layer loading on a 100-nm length scale as well as the local film thickness distribution on a 1-nm scale of the ionomer in the porous layer structure are important to electrode performance so quantitative measurements of both properties are desired. In this paper, we present ionomer mapping measurements at both length scales using two common PEFC electrode constructions.

AB The results of two Manufacturing Readiness Assessments of PEM fuel cell stacks and material handling equipment (MHE) and backup power (BUP) PEM fuel cell systems are given.
Design modifications of fuel cell systems were made because the initial, 2008 designs did not fully meet the operational requirements of the markets. This situation indicates the 2008 risk elements were overstated.
For 2010 BUP and MHE fuel cell systems, manufacturers had not reached the Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) defined in the 2008 MRA Report at 1,000 units per year per manufacturer.
For fuel cell stacks, LRIP was demonstrated by more than one manufacturer.
The federal tax incentive program has compensated for the initial high cost of fuel cell systems.
The Balance-of-Plant (BOP) has not evolved as rapidly as the PEM fuel cell stack manufacturing readiness.
The BOP in 2014 is as costly as the fuel cell stack for MHE applications.

AB Extensive transport and modeling studies have been performed on a series of polymers based on the benzyltrimethylamonium cations. We have created a realistic reactive model of solvated hydroxide that has interesting properties in the polymer matrix. In ordered di-block polymers we have strong theoretical evidence for a heterogeneous distribution of water across the channel. Fluoride is used as a non-reactive surrogate for hydroxide to increase the computational efficiency of transport calculations that can be performed. In addition to these studies we are discovering new base stable processable robust polymer backbones and cations. These bulky cations seem to dramatically affect the transport properties of the anions showing a VTF rather than an Arrhenius behavior with temperature.

ID ANION-EXCHANGE MEMBRANES; ALKALINE STABILITY; FUEL-CELLS; IMIDAZOLIUM
AB Alkaline membranes are of high interest as hydroxide conducting polymers in electrochemical devices. Benzyltrimethylammonium (BTMA) has historically been the cation most often employed in anion exchange membranes. Fuel cell literature often compares cation stabilities under alkaline conditions to that of BTMA. However throughout the literature each study employs a different experimental method when determining these stabilities. This variety of methods makes cross comparisons of novel cations difficult if at all possible. Additionally, we have found that several methods reported have inherent flaws in their findings due to the difficulty of performing stability experiments with high base concentrations. Herein we report a reliable, standardized method of determining cation stability under alkaline conditions that mimic those expected under operating conditions of electrochemical devices. During development, several common experimental pitfalls are addressed and avoided. The standardized method has been employed to determine BTMA stabilities at varying concentrations (0.01, 0.1, and 0.5 M BTMA) at 120, 140 and 160 degrees C in 2 M KOH in H2O, and have found BTMA to be very stable at 80 degrees C.

ID ANION-EXCHANGE MEMBRANES; ALKALINE FUEL-CELLS; DECOMPOSITION PATHWAYS;
NMR-SPECTROSCOPY; STABILITY; CATIONS
AB The stability of cations used in the alkaline exchange membranes has been a major challenge for alkaline membrane fuel cells. In this paper, the degradation barriers were investigated by density functional theory for substituted benzyltrimethyl ammonium (BTMA(+)) cations. BTMA(+) is one of the most commonly used cations for alkaline exchange membranes. It was found that substituted cations with electron-donating substituent groups at meta-position of the benzyl ring could result in improved degradation barriers. However, after investigating more than thirty substituted BTMA(+) cations with ten different substituent groups, the largest improvement of degradation barriers calculated was only 1.6 kcal/mol. While this may be a meaningful increase in stability for some applications, it suggests that only a modest improvement in stability is possible through substitution of BTMA(+).

AB Biaxial tensile strained Si layers grown epitaxially on SiGe have attracted renewed attention for high performance CMOS devices. Strain engineering for mobility enhancement is an attractive option to improve CMOS device performance. Epitaxial Si1-xGex and most recently Ge-free bi-axially strained sSOI are among the serious candidates for higher mobility channel material. We demonstrate how the fabrication of thin single crystal Si devices by wafer bonding and hydrogen ion cut film exfoliation technique is affecting their nanomechanical properties compared to bulk single crystal Si. Although both the handle wafer and the bonded thin device layer are single crystal Si, it turns out that their nanomechanical properties differ considerably. Using nanoindentation, we measured the properties of SOI and bi-axially tensile strained sSOI and benchmarked the results against single crystal bulk Si. The experimental results indicate that the hardness of the strained thin Si films varies significantly.

ID PHOTOELECTRON-SPECTROSCOPY; GROWTH; WATER
AB Ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is used to unveil the water uptake of a thin GeO2 film on Ge(100) as well as its effect on the electronic properties of the oxide film. We also compare these results with those for a SiO2/Si(100) sample. We detect significant positive charging of the GeO2 film once it is exposed to water vapor even at a low relative humidity (RH) of approximately 10-4%. We also show that the amount of adsorbed water is much larger on GeO2 than on SiO2 at RH above 10(-4)%, probably due to the permeability of GeO2. Two possible mechanisms are proposed to explain such water-induced positive charging of the GeO2 film.

ID NICKEL SILICIDE; NUCLEATION; TRANSISTORS; DEFECT
AB The vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) mechanism is the prominent growth process for semiconductor nanowires (NWs), for example in Si NW growth. By forming Au-Si eutectic alloy, Si atoms can be sufficiently mobile in the liquid while finding their crystal sites before precipitating out into a solid phase. We report here an in-situ TEM study of new solid-liquid-solid (SLS) Ni disilicide phase growth mechanism in Si NWs that is analogous to the VLS mechanism in being a liquid-mediated growth, but is fundamentally different in terms of nucleation and mass transport. The new mechanism can be potentially used in synthesizing metallic nanowires without templates.

ID SILICIDE
AB The Ni silicides and Si metal-semiconductor contacts are a vital element in the state-of-the-art commercial transistor devices. The latest source/drain (S/D) engineering technology designs the S/D crystal structure (e.g. intentional incorporation of stacking faults) that strains the channel to enhance device performance. Understanding the role of structural alternation, or defects, in Si-Ni reaction is therefore important in achieving precise control of the contact formation process at an atomic scale. Here, we present a study of Si-Ni reaction by lattice-resolved in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and found that presence of defects in Si can fundamentally change the silicide nucleation mechanism and growth behavior.

ID ENERGY
AB Even though graphene is exceptional with respect to several physical properties, its use in electronic devices requires modification of the material. For example, development of graphene-based transistors necessitates the controlled increase of the number of charge carriers. Other applications may employ graphene chemical derivatives with enhanced functionalities. Here we review results from recent density-functional theory (DFT) studies on key processes that could dope or functionalize graphene. We demonstrate the crucial role carbon vacancies (single vacancies or double vacancies) can play in enabling substitutional doping and describe a vacancy-free doping scheme that employs the physisorption of ammonium groups. Finally, we show that graphene may be selectively permeable to certain atomic species, for example boron atoms.

ID SYSTEM RELIABILITY; MODELS
AB Markov chain usage models have been a basis for statistical testing of software intensive systems for more than two decades. During this time, several reliability estimators have been formulated and used in testing. This paper presents an improvement on the arc-based Bayesian estimator distributed with Version 4.5 of the JUMBL (J Usage Model Builder Library) [1]. The arc-based Bayesian estimator is conservative, and especially so for samples that are small relative to the entropy in the model. We call the new model the "greedy estimator" because it combines the specific information from testing with the inference attributed to the total population. The greedy estimator is shown analytically and experimentally to give more accurate estimates than its predecessor on concrete models, although they converge in the long run. The results of using the greedy estimator are demonstrated for a set of testing data for a tape drive controller.

AB NASA Earth Exchange (NEX) aims to provide a platform to enable and facilitate scientific collaboration and knowledge sharing in the Earth sciences, as current satellite measurements rapidly magnify the accumulation of more than 40 years of NASA datasets. One of the main objectives of NEX is to help Earth scientists leverage and reuse various data processing software modules developed by their peers, in order to quickly run value-added executable experiments (workflows). Toward this goal, this paper reports our efforts of leveraging social network analysis to intelligently extract hidden information from data processing workflows. By modeling Earth science workflow modules as social entities and their dependencies as social relationships, this research opens up new vistas for applying social science to facilitate software reuse and distributed workflow development. As a proof of concept, a prototyping system has been developed as a plug-in to the NEX workflow design and management system (VisTrails) to aid Earth scientists in discovering and reusing workflow modules and extending them to solve more complex science problems.

AB We explore the use of computer vision methods for organizing, searching, and classifying x-ray scattering images. X-ray scattering is a technique that shines an intense beam of x-rays through a sample of interest. By recording the intensity of x-ray deflection as a function of angle, scientists can measure the structure of materials at the molecular and nano-scale. Current and planned synchrotron instruments are producing x-ray scattering data at an unprecedented rate, making the design of automatic analysis techniques crucial for future research. In this paper, we devise an attribute-based approach to recognition in x-ray scattering images and demonstrate applications to image annotation and retrieval.

ID ADAPTIVE OPTICS
AB We measure the long-term systematic component of the astrometric error in the GeMS MCAO system as a function of field radius and Ks magnitude. The experiment uses two epochs of observations of NGC 1851 separated by one month. The systematic component is estimated for each of three field of view cases (15'' radius, 30'' radius, and full field) and each of three distortion correction schemes: 8 DOF/chip + local distortion correction (LDC), 8 DOF/chip with no LDC, and 4 DOF/chip with no LDC. For bright, unsaturated stars with 13 < Ks < 16, the systematic component is < 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 mas, respectively, for the 15'' radius, 30'' radius, and full field cases, provided that an 8 DOF/chip distortion correction with LDC (for the full-field case) is used to correct distortions. An 8 DOF/chip distortion-correction model always outperforms a 4 DOF/chip model, at all field positions and magnitudes and for all field-of-view cases, indicating the presence of high-order distortion changes. Given the order of the models needed to correct these distortions (similar to 8 DOF/chip or 32 degrees of freedom total), it is expected that at least 25 stars per square arcminute would be needed to keep systematic errors at less than 0.3 milliarcseconds for multi-year programs. We also estimate the short-term astrometric precision of the newly upgraded Shane AO system with undithered M92 observations. Using a 6-parameter linear transformation to register images, the system delivers similar to 0.3 mas astrometric error over short-term observations of 2-3 minutes.

DE High contrast imaging; non-common path aberrations
AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) entered on-sky commissioning phase, and had its First Light at the Gemini South telescope in November 2013. Meanwhile, the fast loops for atmospheric correction of the Extreme Adaptive Optics (XAO) system have been closed on many dozen stars at different magnitudes (1=4-8), elevation angles and a variety of seeing conditions, and a stable loop performance was achieved from the beginning. Ultimate contrast performance requires a very low residual wavefront error (design goal 60 nm RMS), and optimization of the planet finding instrument on different ends has just begun to deepen and widen its dark hole region. Laboratory raw contrast benchmarks are in the order of 10(-6) or smaller. In the telescope environment and in standard operations new challenges are faced (changing gravity, temperature, vibrations) that are tackled by a variety of techniques such as Kalman filtering, open-loop models to keep alignment to within 5 mas, speckle nulling, and a calibration unit (CAL). The CAL unit was especially designed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to control slowly varying wavefront errors at the focal plane of the apodized Lyot coronagraph by the means of two wavefront sensors: 1) a 7x7 low order Shack-Hartmann SH wavefront sensor (LOWFS), and 2) a special Mach-Zehnder interferometer for mid-order spatial frequencies (HOWFS) - atypical in that the beam is split in the focal plane via a pinhole but recombined in the pupil plane with a beamsplitter. The original design goal aimed for sensing and correcting on a level of a few nm which is extremely challenging in a telescope environment. This paper focuses on non-common path low order wavefront correction as achieved through the CAL unit on sky. We will present the obtained results as well as explain challenges that we are facing.

AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) entered on-sky commissioning and had its first-light at the Gemini South (GS) telescope in November 2013. GPI is an extreme adaptive optics (XAO), high-contrast imager and integral-field spectrograph dedicated to the direct detection of hot exo-planets down to a Jupiter mass. The performance of the apodized pupil Lyot coronagraph depends critically upon the residual wavefront error (design goal of 60nmRMS with <5 mas RMS tip/tilt), and therefore is most sensitive to vibration (internal or external) of Gemini's instrument suite. Excess vibration can be mitigated by a variety of methods such as passive or active dampening at the instrument or telescope structure or Kalman filtering of specific frequencies with the AO control loop. Understanding the sources, magnitudes and impact of vibration is key to mitigation. This paper gives an overview of related investigations based on instrument data (GPI AO module) as well as external data from accelerometer sensors placed at different locations on the GS telescope structure. We report the status of related mitigation efforts, and present corresponding results.

AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a facility extreme-AO high-contrast instrument - optimized solely for study of faint companions - on the Gemini telescope. It combines a high-order MEMS AO system (1493 active actuators), an apodized-pupil Lyot coronagraph, a high-accuracy IR post-coronagraph wavefront sensor, and a near-infrared integral field spectrograph. GPI incorporates several other novel features such as ultra-high quality optics, a spatially-filtered wavefront sensor, and new calibration techniques. GPI had first light in November 2013. This paper presnets results of first-light and performance verification and optimization and shows early science results including extrasolar planet spectra and polarimetric detection of the HR4696A disk. GPI is now achieving contrasts approaching 10(-6) at 0.5" in 30 minute exposures

AB The Gemini Planet Imager instrument's adaptive optics (AO) subsystem was designed specifically to facilitate high-contrast imaging. It features several new technologies, including computationally efficient wavefront reconstruction with the Fourier transform, modal gain optimization every 8 seconds, and the spatially filtered wavefront sensor. It also uses a Linear-Quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) controller (aka Kalman filter) for both pointing and focus. We present on-sky performance results from verification and commissioning runs from December 2013 through May 2014. The efficient reconstruction and modal gain optimization are working as designed. The LQG controllers effectively notch out vibrations. The spatial filter can remove aliases, but we typically use it oversized by about 60% due to stability problems.

AB The identification and prediction of time-varying wavefront errors in adaptive optics (AO) systems promises fainter limiting guide star magnitudes and improved temporal bandwidth errors. In a new UCSC-LLNL collaboration, we aim to demonstrate the power of predictive Fourier controllers for AO in the laboratory and on-sky. We have used the Fourier Wind Identification technique to measure wind velocities at several telescopes, and now have demonstrated the identification of frozen flow turbulence with a translating phase screen on a laboratory test bench.
Here, we present identification of the wind direction and velocity using telemetry data from a laboratory testbed simulating the ShaneAO system geometry. Our wind identification system uses a Fourier decomposition technique to identify the correlated movement of the atmosphere from WFS telemetry data, which are then used to construct a Kalman filter for real-time operation. We demonstrate the use of an LQG controller with the ShaneAO system architecture, and show that the effects of frozen flow turbulence can be easily identified in laboratory telemetry. We describe the adaptations made to the LQG controller to integrate it into the dual-DM architecture of the ShaneAO system, and demonstrate that these modifications produce stable and well-understood AO correction in the laboratory.

DE adaptive optics; high contrast imaging; Gemini Planet Imager; GPI
AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a new facility, extreme adaptive optics (AO), coronagraphic instrument, currently being integrated onto the 8-meter Gemini South telescope, with the ultimate goal of directly imaging extrasolar planets. To achieve the contrast required for the desired science, it is necessary to quantify and mitigate wavefront error (WFE). A large source of potential static WFE arises from the primary AO wavefront sensor (WFS) detector's use of multiple readout segments with independent signal chains including on-chip preamplifiers and external amplifiers. Temperature changes within GPI's electronics cause drifts in readout segments' bias levels, inducing an RMS WFE of 1.1 nm and 41.9 nm over 4.44 degrees Celsius, for magnitude 4 and 11 stars, respectively. With a goal of <2 nm of static WFE, these are significant enough to require remedial action. Simulations imply a requirement to take fresh WFS darks every 2 degrees Celsius of temperature change, for a magnitude 6 star; similarly, for a magnitude 7 star, every 1 degree Celsius of temperature change. For sufficiently dim stars, bias drifts exceed the signal, causing a large initial WFE, and the former periodic requirement practically becomes an instantaneous/continuous one, making the goal of <2 nm of static WFE very difficult for stars of magnitude 9 or fainter. In extreme cases, this can cause the AO loops to destabilize due to perceived nonphysical wavefronts, as some of the WFS's Shack-Hartmann quadcells are split between multiple readout segments. Presented here is GPI's AO WFS geometry, along with detailed steps in the simulation used to quantify bias drift related WFE, followed by laboratory and on sky results, and concluded with possible methods of remediation.

screen; frozen flow
AB The advent of expensive, large-aperture telescopes and complex adaptive optics (AO) systems has strengthened the need for detailed simulation of such systems from the top of the atmosphere to control algorithms. The credibility of any simulation is underpinned by the quality of the atmosphere model used for introducing phase variations into the incident photons. Hitherto, simulations which incorporate wind layers have relied upon phase screen generation methods that tax the computation and memory capacities of the platforms on which they run. This places limits on parameters of a simulation, such as exposure time or resolution, thus compromising its utility. As aperture sizes and fields of view increase the problem will only get worse. We present an autoregressive method for evolving atmospheric phase that is efficient in its use of computation resources and allows for variability in the power contained in frozen flow or stochastic components of the atmosphere. Users have the flexibility of generating atmosphere datacubes in advance of runs where memory constraints allow to save on computation time or of computing the phase at each time step for long exposure times. Preliminary tests of model atmospheres generated using this method show power spectral density and rms phase in accordance with established metrics for Kolmogorov models.

AB Problems such as fault tolerance and scalable synchronization can be efficiently solved using reversibility of applications. Making applications reversible by relying on computation rather than on memory is ideal for large scale parallel computing, especially for the next generation of supercomputers in which memory is expensive in terms of latency, energy, and price. In this direction, a case study is presented here in reversing a computational core, namely, Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS), which is widely used in scientific applications. A new Reversible BLAS (RBLAS) library interface has been designed, and a prototype has been implemented with two modes: (1) a memory-mode in which reversibility is obtained by checkpointing to memory, and (2) a computational-mode in which nothing is saved, and restoration is done entirely via inverse computation. The article is focused on detailed performance benchmarking to evaluate the runtime dynamics and performance effects, comparing reversible computation with checkpointing on both traditional CPU platforms and recent GPU accelerator platforms. For BLAS Level-1 subprograms, data indicates over an order of magnitude speed up of reversible computation compared to checkpointing. For BLAS Level-2 and Level-3, a more complex tradeoff is observed between reversible computation and checkpointing, depending on computational and memory complexities of the subprograms.

AB Experiments were conducted to evaluate the use of a passive two-phase cooling strategy as a means of cooling automotive power electronics. The proposed cooling approach utilizes an indirect cooling configuration to alleviate some reliability concerns and to allow the use of conventional power modules. An inverter-scale proof-of-concept cooling system was fabricated and tested using the refrigerants hydrofluoroolefin HFO-1234yf and hydrofluorocarbon HFC-245fa. Results demonstrated that the system can dissipate at least 3.5 kW of heat with 250 cm(3) of HFC-245fa. An advanced evaporator concept that incorporates features to improve performance and reduce its size was designed. Simulation results indicate the concept's thermal resistance can be 58% to 65% lower than automotive dual-side-cooled power modules. Tests were also conducted to measure the thermal performance of two air-cooled condensers-plain and rifled finned tube designs. The results combined with some analysis were then used to estimate the required condenser size per operating conditions and maximum allowable system (i.e., vapor and liquid) temperatures.

AB An agent-based model is used to simulate a developing region population, disease burden, health care infrastructure and estimate the impact of resource investment decisions on population health and health care costs. In this approach, the primary agents are individual health care facilities, capturing population characteristics, facility catchment population, and facility diagnostic capacity and strategies. Health facility investment decisions are represented by new hospital placement and capacity in selected jurisdictions. Impact on outcomes is simulated over a time horizon of up to 20 years. Data visualization is applied and used to compare multiple scenarios to help inform public health planning, investment and policy decision-making.

ID ALGORITHMS
AB Data clustering is a basic technique for knowledge discovery and data mining. As the volume of data grows significantly, data clustering becomes computationally prohibitive and resource demanding, and sometimes it is necessary to outsource these tasks to third party experts who specialize in data clustering. The goal of this work is to develop techniques that find common ground among experts' opinions on data clustering, which may be biased due to the features or algorithms used in clustering. Our work differs from the large body of existing approaches to consensus clustering, as we do not require all data objects be grouped into clusters. Rather, our work is motivated by real-world applications that demand high confidence in how data objects - if they are selected - are grouped together. We formulate the problem rigorously and show that it is NP-complete. We further develop a lightweight technique based on finding a maximum independent set in a 3-uniform hypergraph to select data objects that do not form conflicts among experts' opinions. We apply our proposed method to a real-world malware dataset with hundreds of thousands of instances to find malware clusters based on how multiple major AV (Anti-Virus) software classify these samples. Our work offers a new direction for consensus clustering by striking a balance between the clustering quality and the amount of data objects chosen to be clustered.

ID MESH LAYOUTS; BINARY-TREES
AB This paper proposes a general framework for generating cache-oblivious layouts for binary search trees. A cache-oblivious layout attempts to minimize cache misses on any hierarchical memory, independent of the number of memory levels and attributes at each level such as cache size, line size, and replacement policy. Recursively partitioning a tree into contiguous subtrees and prescribing an ordering amongst the subtrees, Hierarchical Layouts generalize many commonly used layouts for trees such as in-order, pre-order and breadth-first. They also generalize the various flavors of the van Emde Boas layout, which have previously been used as cache-oblivious layouts. Hierarchical Layouts thus unify previous attempts at deriving layouts for search trees.
The paper then derives a new locality measure (the Weighted Edge Product) that mimics the probability of cache misses at multiple levels, and shows that layouts that reduce this measure perform better. We analyze the various degrees of freedom in the construction of Hierarchical Layouts, and investigate the relative effect of each of these decisions in the construction of cache-oblivious layouts. Optimizing the Weighted Edge Product for complete binary search trees, we introduce the MINWEP layout, and show that it outperforms previously used cache-oblivious layouts by almost 20%.

DE Nanogrids; multi-drop Ethernet; PoE; LLDP
AB Local renewable DC electricity sources, such as solar, have become cost competitive. In this position paper, we argue that an Ethernet LAN with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) is a nanogrid where the physical layer infrastructure is used for DC electricity distribution and the link-layer capabilities can be used to match electricity supply and demand. To be cost effective with respect to wiring, many of these nanogrids must be multi-drop where each drop may be a power socket. Open challenges to employing PoE as a multi-drop managed nanogrid include 1) extending LLDP for multi-drop, 2) adapting LLDP to support the use of price signals for modulating power demand, 3) achieving efficient PoE power flow in a multi-drop circuit, and 4) implementing low-cost and fair scheduling for packet transmission. We explore how multi-drop Ethernet can be implemented with fair access to all devices by employing at each drop a mini-switch with packet scheduling.

AB This paper presents patterns of electricity consumption for charging electric vehicles when customers can select flat or time of use pricing. The data consist of hourly charging profiles for two utilities whose customers were offered alternative rate schedules with rates different for weekdays and weekends as well as for seasons. The extent to which TOU customers' daily load profiles differ from customers who opted for flat rates is presented for both weekdays and weekends. The on-peak and off-peak consumption for flat rate and TOU customers is compared to show that total consumption and timing of consumption varied by rate structure. Data show large differences in charging profiles for the varying rate structures. This paper discusses the different patterns observed between electric vehicle load and the rest of the residential load. Substitution and own-price elasticities are computed. In addition, issues related to self selection of pricing structures are discussed.

AB High penetration of intermittent renewable generators can substantially increase the variability and uncertainty in power system operations. Energy storage and demand response have been proposed as resources that can be used to mitigate this uncertainty and variability. This paper describes planning system that couples a stochastic weather model, renewable generation models that are driven by the weather, a stochastic production simulation model, and a system stability model. The system is used to simulate operation of the California grid with 33% variable renewable generation in the year 2020. The values of energy storage and demand response are estimated by identifying the avoided costs of the conventional hydro and fossil resources that they displace when providing regulation, load following, and energy arbitrage functions. The impacts on system stability are also assessed.

AB This paper presents a statistical method for modeling the behavior of household occupants to estimate residential energy consumption. Using data gathered by the U.S. Census Bureau in the American Time Use Survey (ATUS), actions carried out by survey respondents are categorized into ten distinct activities. These activities are defined to correspond to the major energy consuming loads commonly found within the residential sector. Next, time varying minute resolution Markov chain based statistical models of different occupant types are developed. Using these behavioral models, individual occupants are simulated to show how an occupant interacts with the major residential energy consuming loads throughout the day. From these simulations, the minimum number of occupants, and consequently the minimum number of multiple occupant households, needing to be simulated to produce a statistically accurate representation of aggregate residential behavior can be determined. Finally, future work will involve the use of these occupant models along side residential load models to produce a high-resolution energy consumption profile and estimate the potential for demand response from residential

AB This paper proposes a redefinition of the power system quantities often said to be described by a synchro-phasor and measured by a phasor measurement unit. Problems with what are often called "synchronous phasor measurements" include the facts that they are not truly synchronous, and the quantity being measured is not truly a phasor. This paper proposes a new method of making measurements that overcomes these problems. It tests the proposed definitions and measurement methods with "synthetic" signals, and shows that the method provides understandable and consistent results.

The information these tools provide gives insights into demand behavior from automated price responsive devices, distribution feeder characteristics, impact of weather on system's development, and other significant dynamics. Given the large number of devices that bid into a feeder-level real-time electricity market, new techniques are explored to summarize the present state of the system and contrast that with previous trends as well as future projections. To better understand the system behavior and correctly inform decision-making procedures, effective visualization of the data is imperative.

AB In this paper, parallelization and high performance computing are utilized to enable ultrafast transient stability analysis that can be used in a real-time environment to quickly perform " what-if" simulations involving system dynamics phenomena. EPRI's Extended Transient Midterm Simulation Program (ETMSP) is modified and enhanced for this work. The contingency analysis is scaled for large-scale contingency analysis using Message Passing Interface (MPI) based parallelization. Simulations of thousands of contingencies on a high performance computing machine are performed, and results show that parallelization over contingencies with MPI provides good scalability and computational gains. Different ways to reduce the Input/Output (I/O) bottleneck are explored, and findings indicate that architecting a machine with a larger local disk and maintaining a local file system significantly improve the scaling results. Thread-parallelization of the sparse linear solve is explored also through use of the SuperLU_MT library.

AB Arguably the most exciting aspect of the smart grid vision is the full participation of end-use resources with all forms of generation and energy storage in the reliable and efficient operation of an electric power system. Engaging all of these resources in a collaborative manner that respects the objectives of each resource, is sensitive to the system and local constraints of electricity flow, and scales to the large number of devices and systems participating is a grand challenge. Distributed decision-making system approaches have been presented and experimentation is underway. This paper reports on the preliminary findings of a residential demand response demonstration that uses the bidding transactions of supply and end-use air conditioning resources communicating with a real-time, 5 minute market to balance the various needs of the participants on a distribution feeder. The nature of the demonstration, the value streams being explored, and the operational scenarios implemented to characterize the system response are summarized along with preliminary findings.

AB This paper presents a novel nodal finite-element method for either continuous and discontinuous elements, as applied to the 2-D shallow-water equations on the cubed sphere. The cornerstone of this method is the construction of a robust derivative operator that can be applied to compute discrete derivatives even over a discontinuous function space. A key advantage of the robust derivative is that it can be applied to partial differential equations in either a conservative or a non-conservative form. However, it is also shown that discontinuous penalization is required to recover the correct order of accuracy for discontinuous elements. Two versions with discontinuous elements are examined, using either the g(1) and g(2) flux correction function for distribution of boundary fluxes and penalty across nodal points. Scalar and vector hyperviscosity (HV) operators valid for both continuous and discontinuous elements are also derived for stabilization and removal of grid-scale noise. This method is validated using four standard shallow-water test cases, including geostrophically balanced flow, a mountain-induced Rossby wave train, the Rossby-Haurwitz wave and a barotropic instability. The results show that although the discontinuous basis requires a smaller time step size than that required for continuous elements, the method exhibits better stability and accuracy properties in the absence of hyperviscosity.

AB A 1650 mu m thick columnar CsI(Tl) scintillator for upgrading iQID detectors, which is a high-resolution photon-counting gamma-ray and x-ray detector recently developed at the Center for Gamma-Ray Imaging (CGRI), has been studied in terms of sensitivity, spatial resolution and depth-of-interaction effects. To facilitate these studies, a new frame-parsing algorithm for processing raw event data is also proposed that has more degrees of freedom in data processing and can discriminate against a special kind of noise present in some low-cost intensifiers. The results show that in comparison with a 450 mu m-thickness columnar CsI(Tl) scintillator, the 1650 mu m thick CsI(Tl) scintillator provides more than twice the sensitivity at the expense of some spatial resolution degradation. The depth-of-interaction study also shows that event size and amplitude vary with scintillator thickness, which can assist in future detector simulations and 3D-interaction-position estimation.

AB Creating a self-organizing system of agents to defend large cyber infrastructures presents many challenges, one of which is demonstrating the system without trying to host it on a large real network of tens of thousands of machines. This abstract describes a portable demonstration of PNNL's Ant-Based Cyber Defense (ABCD) that can run on one or a few physical machines with sufficient resources. We have chosen to run the framework on hundreds of virtual machines whose number is limited only by the available memory and processing power. We collect the distributed logs and visualize the results on a large-scale visualization created to represent up to a million nodes. Our approach should be useful for other decentralized adaptive and self-organizing systems that span large numbers of physical machines.

AB Data mining, bioinformatics, knowledge discovery, social network analysis, are emerging irregular applications that exploits data structures based on pointers or linked lists, such as graphs, unbalanced trees or unstructured grids. These applications are characterized by unpredictable memory accesses and generally are memory bandwidth bound, but also presents large amounts of inherent dynamic parallelism because they can potentially spawn concurrent activities for each one of the element they are exploring. Hybrid architectures, which integrate general purpose processors with reconfigurable devices, appears promising target platforms for accelerating irregular applications. These systems often connect to distributed and multi-ported memories, potentially enabling parallel memory operations. However, these memory architectures introduce several challenges, such as the necessity to manage concurrency and synchronization to avoid structural conflicts on shared memory locations and to guarantee consistency. In this paper we present an adaptive Memory Interface Controller (MIC) that addresses these issues. The MIC is a general and customizable solution that can target several different memory structures, and is suitable for High Level Synthesis frameworks. It implements a dynamic arbitration scheme, which avoids conflicts on memory resources at runtime, and supports atomic memory operations, commonly exploited for synchronization directives in parallel programming paradigms. The MIC simultaneously maps multiple accesses to different memory ports, allowing fine grained parallelism exploitation and ensuring correctness also in the presence of irregular and statically unpredictable memory access patterns. We evaluated the effectiveness of our approach on a typical irregular kernel, graph Breadth First Search (BFS), exploring different design alternatives.

AB With the continuous concern on power system stability and increasing interesting on advanced PMU device application, the focus shifts from ordinary grid measurement data acquisition to system stability monitor and possible event forecast. Among these analysis, frequency quality and stability is always first priority. A proper prediction can help grid to adjust their operation quicker and increase the power reliability, however it still depend on the original data accuracy. In this paper, the proposed method presents a novel frequency quality detection and prediction method on the background of Bayesian theorem and BIPMs Guide to the expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (G.U.M). By analyzing the data stream from PMU in historical record, the proposed method draws an overall conclusion of system frequency quality with confidential level, uncertainty estimation and short time prediction value, which is easy to illustrate for control center operator. It has been tested using data from Michigan Tech Power Energy Lab. The preliminary DC signal tests the normal result for method validation. Testing results show this Bayesian-based prediction method has a great potential in power system frequency quality analysis and dynamic event prediction.

AB We present a semi-automated approach to recognize and hierarchically partition water-body regions of Arctic tundra landscape, such as streams, inundated drained thaw lake basins and ice wedge polygon ponds, in high resolution satellite imagery. The approach integrates the active contours without edges (ACWE) technique and shape-based recognition, and introduces a recursive mode of ACWE application. We build a successive coarse-to-fine hierarchy of image partitions corresponding to the low-gradient Arctic wetlands by recursively partitioning them at the coarser scale into constituent parts. The approach is evaluated using 0.6 m resolution WorldView-2 satellite image of Arctic tundra landscape. The water-body regions segmentation producer's accuracy is 97.7 %, and the user's accuracy is 92.9 %. Visual inspection of the classification and hierarchical partitioning of the segmented water-body regions has demonstrated their qualitatively accurate recognition and hierarchical partitioning.

AB Strain-based Modal Analysis (SMA) is a relatively new topic in the structural dynamics world that gained particular interest in recent years, in particular for structural monitoring application. While classical modal analysis aims at deriving a modal model in terms of modal displacements, the strain modal analysis final result is a description of the system in terms of modal deformation. The advantage of using strain gauges is that they are more reliable, less invasive and can monitor also the structural deformation. The objective of this paper is to propose a formulation to perform modal analysis using strains and compare the obtained results with those from techniques based on acceleration signals. The possibility to combine strain and acceleration signals to derive a common modal model will be discussed. The method will be firstly validated on a small wind turbine clamped at the root and tested in laboratory conditions. Finally, the method will be applied on the data acquired by Sandia National Laboratories during the Sensored Rotor 2 field test campaign on a modified MICON wind turbine. In this experiment, both strain gauges and accelerometers were installed on the blade in similar locations and the signals synchronously acquired.

AB We describe the fiber system of the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI). Its primary science goal is to provide a survey of 14,000 square degrees of the extragalactic sky using the Mayall 4m telescope in five years. The fibre system will provide a multiplex gain of 5000 so that more than 20 million galaxies can surveyed. Applying a number of tests to the survey dataset should allow the evolution of the equation of state of the universe to be determined to greater accuracy than before. The fibre system will provide a multiplex gain of 5000 with very high levels of performance.

AB The Dark Energy Spectroscopic instrument (DESI) is a 5000 fiber multi-object spectrometer system under development for installation on the National Optical Astronomy Observatory (NOAO) Kitt Peak 4m telescope (the Mayall telescope). DESI is designed to perform a 14,000 degrees (square) galaxy and Quasi-Stellar Object (QSO) redshift survey to improve estimates of the dark energy equation of state. The survey design imposes numerous constraints on a prime focus corrector design, including field of view, geometrical blur, stability, fiber injection efficiency, zenith angle, mass and cost. The DESI baseline wide-field optical design described herein provides a 3.2 degrees diameter field of view with six 0.8-1.14m diameter lenses and an integral atmospheric dispersion compensator.

AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is an "extreme" adaptive optics coronagraph system that is now on the Gemini South telescope in Chile. This instrument is composed of three different systems that historically have been separate instruments. These systems are the extreme Adaptive Optics system, with deformable mirrors, including a high-order 64x64 element MEMS system; the Science Instrument, which is a near-infrared integral field spectrograph; and the Calibration system, a precision IR wavefront sensor that also holds key coronagraph components. Each system coordinates actions that require precise timing. The observatory is responsible for starting these actions and has typically done this asynchronously across independent systems. Despite this complexity we strived to provide an interface that is as close to a one-button approach as possible. This paper will describe the sequencing of these systems both internally and externally through the observatory.

AB High resolution broad-band spectroscopy at near-infrared wavelengths has been performed using externally dispersed interferometry (EDT) at the Hale telescope at Mt. Palomar. The EDT technique uses a field-widened Michelson interferometer in series with a dispersive spectrograph, and is able to recover a spectrum with a resolution 4 to 10 times higher than the existing grating spectrograph. This method increases the resolution well beyond the classical limits enforced by the slit width and the detector pixel Nyquist limit and, in principle, decreases the effect of pupil variation on the instrument line-shape function. The EDT technique permits arbitrarily higher resolution measurements using the higher throughput, lower weight, size, and expense of a lower resolution spectrograph. Observations of many stars were performed with the TEDI interferometer mounted within the central hole of the 200 inch primary mirror. Light from the interferometer was then dispersed by the Triple Spec near-infrared echelle spectrograph. Continuous spectra between 950 and 2450 nm with a resolution as high as 27,000 were recovered from data taken with Triple Spec at a native resolution of 2,700. Aspects of data analysis for interferometric spectral reconstruction are described. This technique has applications in improving measurements of high-resolution stellar template spectra, critical for precision Doppler velocimetry using conventional spectroscopic methods. A new interferometer to be applied for this purpose at visible wavelengths is under construction.

AB The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment that will study baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) and the growth of structure through redshift-space distortions with a wide-area galaxy and quasar spectroscopic redshift survey. The DESI instrument consists of a new wide-field (3.2 deg. linear field of view) corrector plus a multi-object spectrometer with up to 5000 robotically positioned optical fibers and will be installed at prime focus on the Mayall 4m telescope at Kitt Peak, Arizona. The fibers feed 10 three-arm spectrographs producing spectra that cover a wavelength range from 360-980 nm and have resolution of 2000-5500 depending on the wavelength. The DESI instrument is designed for a 14,000 sq. deg. multi-year survey of targets that trace the evolution of dark energy out to redshift 3.5 using the redshifts of luminous red galaxies (LRGs), emission line galaxies (ELGs) and quasars. DESI is the successor to the successful Stage-III BOSS spectroscopic redshift survey and complements imaging surveys such as the Stage-III Dark Energy Survey (DES, currently operating) and the Stage-IV Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST, planned start early in the next decade).

AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) Extreme Adaptive Optics Coronograph contains an interferometric mode: a 10-hole non-redundant mask (NRM) in its pupil wheel. GPI operates at Y, J, H, and K bands, using an integral field unit spectrograph (IFS) to obtain spectral data at every image pixel. NRM on GPI is capable of imaging with a half resolution element inner working angle at moderate contrast, probing the region behind the coronagraphic spot. The fine features of the NRM PSF can provide a reliable check on the plate scale, while also acting as an attenuator for spectral standard calibrators that would otherwise saturate the full pupil. NRM commissioning data provides details about wavefront error in the optics as well as operations of adaptive optics control without pointing control from the calibration system. We compare lab and on-sky results to evaluate systematic instrument properties and examine the stability data in consecutive exposures. We discuss early on-sky performance, comparing images from integration and tests with the first on-sky images, and demonstrate resolving a known binary. We discuss the status of NRM and implications for future science with this mode.

AB We present the results of both laboratory and on sky astrometric characterization of the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI). This characterization includes measurement of the pixel scale* of the integral field spectrograph (IFS), the position of the detector with respect to north, and optical distortion. Two of these three quantities (pixel scale and distortion) were measured in the laboratory using two transparent grids of spots, one with a square pattern and the other with a random pattern. The pixel scale in the laboratory was also estimate using small movements of the artificial star unit (ASU) in the GPI adaptive optics system. On sky, the pixel scale and the north angle are determined using a number of known binary or multiple systems and Solar System objects, a subsample of which had concurrent measurements at Keck Observatory. Our current estimate of the GPI pixel scale is 14.14 +/- 0.01 millarcseconds/ pixel, and the north angle is -1.00 +/- 0.03 degrees. Distortion is shown to be small, with an average positional residual of 0.26 pixels over the field of view, and is corrected using a 5th order polynomial. We also present results from Monte Carlo simulations of the GPI Exoplanet Survey (GPIES) assuming GPI achieves similar to 1 milliarcsecond relative astrometric precision. We find that with this precision, we will be able to constrain the eccentricities of all detected planets, and possibly determine the underlying eccentricity distribution of widely separated Jovians.

DE Integral field spectrograph; Extrasolar planets
AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a complex optical system designed to directly detect the self-emission of young planets within two arcseconds of their host stars. After suppressing the starlight with an advanced AO system and apodized coronagraph, the dominant residual contamination in the focal plane are speckles from the atmosphere and optical surfaces. Since speckles are diffractive in nature their positions in the field are strongly wavelength dependent, while an actual companion planet will remain at fixed separation. By comparing multiple images at different wavelengths taken simultaneously, we can freeze the speckle pattern and extract the planet light adding an order of magnitude of contrast. To achieve a bandpass of 20%, sufficient to perform speckle suppression, and to observe the entire two arcsecond field of view at diffraction limited sampling, we designed and built an integral field spectrograph with extremely low wavefront error and almost no chromatic aberration. The spectrograph is fully cryogenic and operates in the wavelength range 1 to 2.4 microns with five selectable filters. A prism is used to produce a spectral resolution of 45 in the primary detection band and maintain high throughput. Based on the OSIRIS spectrograph at Keck, we selected to use a lenslet-based spectrograph to achieve an rms wavefront error of approximately 25 nm. Over 36,000 spectra are taken simultaneously and reassembled into image cubes that have roughly 192x192 spatial elements and contain between 11 and 20 spectral channels. The primary dispersion prism can be replaced with a Wollaston prism for dual polarization measurements. The spectrograph also has a pupil-viewing mode for alignment and calibration.

AB Observational cosmology employing optical surveys often require precise flux calibration. In this context we present SNIFS Calibration Apparatus (SCALA), a flux calibration system developed for the Super Nova Integral Field Spectrograph (SNIFS), operating at the University of Hawaii 2.2 m telescope. SCALA consists of a hexagonal array of 18 small parabolic mirrors distributed over the face of, and feeding parallel light to, the telescope entrance pupil. The mirrors are illuminated by integrating spheres and a wavelength-tunable (from UV to IR) light source, generating light beams with opening angles of 10. These nearly parallel beams are flat and flux-calibrated at a subpercent level, enabling us to calibrate our "telescope + SNIFS system" at the required precision.

AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a new facility instrument for the Gemini Observatory designed to provide direct detection and characterization of planets and debris disks around stars in the solar neighborhood. In addition to its extreme adaptive optics and coronagraphic systems which give access to high angular resolution and high-contrast imaging capabilities, GPI contains an integral field spectrograph providing low resolution spectroscopy across five bands between 0.95 and 2.5 mu m. This paper describes the sequence of processing steps required for the spectro-photometric calibration of GPI science data, and the necessary calibration files. Based on calibration observations of the white dwarf HD 8049 B we estimate that the systematic error in spectra extracted from GPI observations is less than 5%. The flux ratio of the occulted star and fiducial satellite spots within coronagraphic GPI observations, required to estimate the magnitude difference between a target and any resolved companions, was measured in the H-band to be Delta m = 9.23 +/- 0.06 in laboratory measurements and Delta m = 9.39 +/- 0.11 using on-sky observations. Laboratory measurements for the Y, J, K1 and K2 filters are also presented. The total throughput of GPI, Gemini South and the atmosphere of the Earth was also measured in each photometric passband, with a typical throughput in H-band of 18% in the non-coronagraphic mode, with some variation observed over the six-month period for which observations were available. We also report ongoing development and improvement of the data cube extraction algorithm.

AB We present an overview of the design of IRIS, an infrared (0.84 - 2.4 micron) integral field spectrograph and imaging camera for the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT). With extremely low wavefront error (<30 nm) and on-board wavefront sensors, IRIS will take advantage of the high angular resolution of the narrow field infrared adaptive optics system (NFIRAOS) to dissect the sky at the diffraction limit of the 30-meter aperture. With a primary spectral resolution of 4000 and spatial sampling starting at 4 milliarcseconds, the instrument will create an unparalleled ability to explore high redshift galaxies, the Galactic center, star forming regions and virtually any astrophysical object. This paper summarizes the entire design and basic capabilities. Among the design innovations is the combination of lenslet and slicer integral field units, new 4Kx4k detectors, extremely precise atmospheric dispersion correction, infrared wavefront sensors, and a very large vacuum cryogenic system.

ID INTEGRAL-FIELD SPECTROGRAPH; SOFTWARE
AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) has as its science instrument an infrared integral field spectrograph/polarimeter (IFS). Integral field spectrographs are scientificially powerful but require sophisticated data reduction systems. For GPI to achieve its scientific goals of exoplanet and disk characterization, IFS data must be reconstructed into high quality astrometrically and photometrically accurate datacubes in both spectral and polarization modes, via flexible software that is usable by the broad Gemini community. The data reduction pipeline developed by the GPI instrument team to meet these needs is now publicly available following GPI's commissioning.
This paper, the first of a series, provides a broad overview of GPI data reduction, summarizes key steps, and presents the overall software framework and implementation. Subsequent papers describe in more detail the algorithms necessary for calibrating GPI data. The GPI data reduction pipeline is open source, available from planetimager. org, and will continue to be enhanced throughout the life of the instrument. It implements an extensive suite of task primitives that can be assembled into reduction recipes to produce calibrated datasets ready for scientific analysis. Angular, spectral, and polarimetric differential imaging are supported. Graphical tools automate the production and editing of recipes, an integrated calibration database manages reference files, and an interactive data viewer customized for high contrast imaging allows for exploration and manipulation of data.

ID OPTICAL-FIBERS
AB The Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) is a Stage IV ground-based dark energy experiment and will be used to conduct a five year survey covering 14,000 deg2 to z=3.5. This survey is accomplished using five thousand robotically positioned optical fibers that can be quickly reconfigured with a 5 pm positioning accuracy. The fiber performance in the near and far field of two types of robotic positioners are currently being investigated: tilting spine mechanical simulators and eccentric axis (or 0 0) positioners. The far field performance of the fiber is important since the instrument efficiency is adversely affected if light from the fibers enters the spectrograph at a faster focal ratio than the spectrograph can accept (f/3.57 in the DESI design). This degradation of the focal ratio of light is caused by light entering the fiber off axis (tiliting positioner) or bending, twisting, and stress of the fiber (eccentric axis) positioner. The stability of the near field intensity distribution of the fiber is important since this determines the spectrograph point spread function (PSF). If the PSF changes from the calibration to the science exposures, this will result in an extraction bias. For DESI, a particular concern is the distortions in the PSF due to movement of the fibers during re-pointing.

AB The Large Synoptic Survey Telescope instrument include four guiding and wavefront sensing subsystems called corner raft subsystems, in addition to the main science array of 189 4K x 4K CCDs. These four subsystems are placed at the four corners of the instrumented field of view. Each wavefront/guiding subsystem comprises a pair of 4K x 4K guide sensors, capable of producing 9 frames/second, and a pair of offset 2K x 4K wavefront curvature sensors from which the images are read out at the cadence of the main camera system, providing 15 sec integrations. These four guider/wavefront corner rafts are mechanically and electrically isolated from the science sensor rafts and can be installed or removed independently from any other focal plane subsystem. We present the implementation of this LSST subsystem detailing both hardware and software development and status.

AB The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a next-generation, facility instrument currently being commissioned at the Gemini South observatory. GPI combines an extreme adaptive optics system and integral field spectrograph (IFS) with an apodized-pupil Lyot coronagraph (APLC) producing an unprecedented capability for directly imaging and spectroscopically characterizing extrasolar planets. GPI's operating goal of 10-7 contrast requires very precise alignments between the various elements of the coronagraph (two pupil masks and one focal plane mask) and active control of the beam path throughout the instrument. Here, we describe the techniques used to automatically align GPI and maintain the alignment throughout the course of science observations. We discuss the particular challenges of maintaining precision alignments on a Cassegrain mounted instrument and strategies that we have developed that allow GPI to achieve high contrast even in poor seeing conditions.

AB The Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) is a synoptic optical survey for high-cadence time-domain astronomy. Building upon the experience and infrastructure of the highly successful Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) team, ZTF will survey more than an order of magnitude faster than PTF in sky area and volume in order to identify rare, rapidly varying optical sources. These sources will include a trove of supernovae, exotic explosive transients, unusual stellar variables, compact binaries, active galactic nuclei, and asteroids. The single-visit depth of 20.4 mag is well matched to spectroscopic follow-up observations, while the co-added images will provide wide sky coverage 1.5 2 mag deeper than SDS S. The ZTF survey will cover the entire Northern Sky and revisit fields on timescales of a few hours, providing hundreds of visits per field each year, an unprecedented cadence, as required to detect fast transients and variability. This high-cadence survey is enabled by an observing system based on a new camera having 47 deg2 field of view a factor of 6.5 greater than the existing PTF camera equipped with fast readout electronics, a large, fast exposure shutter, faster telescope and dome drives, and various measures to optimize delivered image quality. Our project has already received an initial procurement of e2v wafer-scale CCDs and we are currently fabricating the camera cryostat. International partners and the NSF committed funds in June 2014 so construction can proceed as planned to commence engineering commissioning in 2016 and begin operations in 2017. Public release will allow broad utilization of these data by the US astronomical community. ZTF will also promote the development of transient and variable science methods in preparation for the seminal first light of L SST.

AB We present on-sky polarimetric observations with the Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) obtained at straight Cassegrain focus on the Gemini South 8-m telescope. Observations of polarimetric calibrator stars, ranging from nearly unpolarized to strongly polarized, enable determination of the combined telescope and instrumental polarization. We find the conversion of Stokes I to linear and circular instrumental polarization in the instrument frame to be I -> (Q(IP), U-IP, P-IP, V-IP) = (-0.037 +/- 0.010%, +0.4338 +/- 0.0075%, 0.4354 +/- 0.0075%, -6.64 +/- 0.56%). Such precise measurement of instrumental polarization enables similar to 0.1% absolute accuracy in measurements of linear polarization, which together with GPI's high contrast will allow GPI to explore scattered light from circumstellar disk in unprecedented detail, conduct observations of a range of other astronomical bodies, and potentially even study polarized thermal emission from young exoplanets. Observations of unpolarized standard stars also let us quantify how well GPI's differential polarimetry mode can suppress the stellar PSF halo. We show that GPI polarimetry achieves cancellation of unpolarized starlight by factors of 100-200, reaching the photon noise limit for sensitivity to circumstellar scattered light for all but the smallest separations at which the calibration for instrumental polarization currently sets the limit.

DE Lightweight telescope; diffractive telescope
ID FRESNEL ZONE PLATES; SPACE
AB The desire to field space-based telescopes with apertures in excess of 10 meter diameter is forcing the development of extreme lightweighted large optomechanical structures. Sparse apertures, shell optics, and membrane optics are a few of the approaches that have been investigated and demonstrated. Membrane optics in particular have been investigated for many years. The MOIRE approach in which the membrane is used as a transmissive diffractive optical element (DOE) offers a significant relaxation in the control requirements on the membrane surface figure, supports extreme lightweighting of the primary collecting optic, and provides a path for rapid low cost production of the primary optical elements. Successful development of a powered meter-scale transmissive membrane DOE was reported in 2012. This paper presents initial imaging results from integrating meter-scale transmissive DOEs into the primary element of a 5-meter diameter telescope architecture. The brassboard telescope successfully demonstrates the ability to collect polychromatic high resolution imagery over a representative object using the transmissive DOE technology. The telescope includes multiple segments of a 5-meter diameter telescope primary with an overall length of 27 meters. The object scene used for the demonstration represents a 1.5 km square complex ground scene. Imaging is accomplished in a standard laboratory environment using a 40 nm spectral bandwidth centered on 650 nm. Theoretical imaging quality for the tested configuration is NIIRS 2.8, with the demonstration achieving NIIRS 2.3 under laboratory seeing conditions. Design characteristics, hardware implementation, laboratory environmental impacts on imagery, image quality metrics, and ongoing developments will be presented.

Polarimetry; Millimeter wave-length
AB We present the mission design of LiteBIRD, a next generation satellite for the study of B-mode polarization and inflation from cosmic microwave background radiation (CMB) detection. The science goal of LiteBIRD is to measure the CMB polarization with the sensitivity of delta r = 0.001, and this allows testing the major single-field slow-roll inflation models experimentally. The LiteBIRD instrumental design is purely driven to achieve this goal. At the earlier stage of the mission design, several key instrumental specifications, e.g. observing band, optical system, scan strategy, and orbit, need to be de fined in order to process the rest of the detailed design. We have gone through the feasibility studies for these items in order to understand the tradeoffs between the requirements from the science goal and the compatibilities with a satellite bus system. We describe the overview of LiteBIRD and discuss the tradeoffs among the choices of scientific instrumental specifications and strategies. The first round of feasibility studies will be completed by the end of year 2014 to be ready for the mission definition review and the target launch date is in early 2020s.

Computational Inelasticity
AB Advances in computer software tools and technologies have transformed the way in which finite element codes and associated material models are developed. In this work, we propose a numerically exact approach for computing the sensitivites required to construct local consistent tangent operators in computational inelasticity applications. The tangent operators that come from the derivatives of constitutive equations are necessary for achieving quadratic convergence in integrating material models at the integration point level. Unlike finite difference- based numerical methods, the approach proposed in this work is based on an exact differentiation technique called automatic differentiation (AD). The method is efficient, robust and easy to incorporate. Numerical examples in both small- and large-deformation inelasticity problems with complicated material models are presented to illustrate the efficiency and applicability of the proposed method.

AB This presentation will review developments on the integration of advanced modeling and simulation techniques into the analysis step of experimental data obtained at the Spallation Neutron Source. A workflow framework for the purpose of refining molecular mechanics forcefields against quasi-elastic neutron scattering data is presented. The workflow combines software components to submit model simulations to remote high performance computers, a message broker interface for communications between the optimizer engine and the simulation production step, and tools to convolve the simulated data with the experimental resolution. A test application shows the correction to a popular fixed-charge water model in order to account polarization effects due to the presence of solvated ions. Future enhancements to the refinement workflow are discussed. This work is funded through the DOE Center for Accelerating Materials Modeling.

DE electron microscopy; compressed sensing
AB Scanning electron microscopes (SEMs) are used in neuroscience and materials science to image square centimeters of sample area at nanometer scales. Since imaging rates are in large part SNR-limited, imaging time is proportional to the number of measurements taken of each sample; in a traditional SEM, large collections can lead to weeks of aroundthe- clock imaging time. We previously reported a single-beam sparse sampling approach that we have demonstrated on an operational SEM for collecting "smooth" images. In this paper, we analyze how measurements from a hypothetical multi-beam system would compare to the single-beam approach in a compressed sensing framework. To that end, multi-beam measurements are synthesized on a single-beam SEM, and fidelity of reconstructed images are compared to the previously demonstrated approach. Since taking fewer measurements comes at the cost of reduced SNR, image fidelity as a function of undersampling ratio is reported.

AB Grains of a f.c.c. polycrystals undergo heterogeneous plastic deformation and develop substructures even under imposed homogeneous deformation. The developed intense non-uniformity of deformation leads to shear and deformation banding, and it significantly affects the texture formation. Recently proposed rigid plastic rate-independent crystal plasticity based 'stack of domains' model of a grain (Arul Kumar and Mahesh, 2012), capable to predict banding, is applied to simulate a f.c.c. polycrystalline material under rolling deformation. Subdivision of grains as banding under imposed homogeneous deformation is predicted and mapped over the entire orientation space. The banding predictions are compared with the available experimental observations from the literature and excellent agreement is found. The effect of banding on rolling texture formation is also quantified.

AB Magnesium alloys have become popular alternatives to aluminums and steels for the purpose of vehicle light weighting. However, Mg alloys are hindered from wider application due to limited ductility. Understanding the impact of microstructural features on bulk response is key to more widespread use and moving towards truly predicting capabilities. Cast Mg alloys contain intrinsic (grain size, secondary phases, morphology) and extrinsic (porosity) microstructural features. Both types of features contribute to the bulk properties and in-service failure mechanisms. This study models the intrinsic features using synthetic microstructure models that incorporate material properties from first-principle calculations. We will show that the morphology, not just the volume fraction, of the secondary phase, explains the hardening differences between different AM-series alloys. The resulting "bulk" properties from the intrinsic models are also utilized by extrinsic microstructure models to predict the ductility of Mg alloys.

AB Transport mechanisms, such as mass and heat transfer, are critical to the efficiency and the reliability of nuclear fuels such as uranium oxide. These properties can be significantly affected by the microstructure of materials. This paper looks into the effects of grain boundary (GB) Kapitza resistance on the overall thermal conductivity and fission gas transport of UO2 using a 3-D finite element model with microstructurally explicit information. The model developed is created with a reconstruction of the microstructure of depleted uranium samples performed using serial sectioning techniques with Focused Ion Beam (FIB) and Electron Backscattering Diffraction (EBSD). The properties of these microstructural entities are characterized by misorientation angles and Coincident Site Lattice (CSL) models, which provide a framework to assign spatially dependent thermal and mass transfer properties based on the location and connectivity of these entities in actual microstructures. The key feature of this model is the coupling between heat transfer and mass transfer of fission products which makes it a multi-physics model capable of following the evolution of thermal performance as fission products are produced.

AB Multiferroic materials represent a very attractive class of materials due to the coupling between their electric and magnetic orders. A recent paper has demonstrated that a thin film of BDFO shows a good magnetoelectric coupling. Based on such a peculiarity, multiferroic composites can be successfully used to realize sensors of both electric and magnetic fields. This work reports two different ways to realize an E-field and B-field sensor with a thin layer of BDFO. The first approach shows as a single multiferroic device can be used as sensor, while the second approach exploits a coupled system made by three multiferroic devices. The multiferroic device models are presented together with the electronic circuits used in the simulations.

AB Grating prisms (grism) designed for near-infrared spectroscopy typically make use of high-refractive index materials such as zinc selenide (ZnSe), at the expense of large Fresnel losses (similar to 18%). Part of the loss can be recovered by using anti-reflection (AR) coatings. The technique is however considered risky when applied on the ruled surface of a grating, especially for a space application at cryogenic temperature. Such a grism, made of ZnSe and machined at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is mounted in the Near-Infrared Slit less Spectrograph (NIRISS) onboard the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). Its Single Object Slit less Spectrograph (SOSS) observing mode uses the ZnSe grism and a cross-dispersing prism to produce R=700 spectra in orders 1 and 2 to cover the 0.6 to 2.5 microns spectral domain. The ZnSe grism is blazed at 1.23 microns, has a density of 54 lines/mm and its triangular grooves have a depth of 700 nm, a base of 18 microns, with facets angled at 1.9 degrees. Here, an AR coating produced by Thin Film Lab (TFL) and deposited on the ruled surface of a ZnSe grism sample was space qualified. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) showed no groove profile change pre/post coating despite the large relative thickness of the AR coating to that of the groove depth (similar to 35%). Also, the wavefront error map remained almost unchanged at lambda/8 (peak-to-valley at 632 nm) and survived unscathed through a series of three cryogenic cycles to 20 K. Finally, the transmission gain across our operating spectral range was almost as high as that for a unruled surface covered with the same AR coating (10-15%).
