H2@Scale - Validating an Electrolysis System with High Output Pressure: Cooperative Research and Development Final Report, CRADA Number CRD-18-00741
Electrolysis has been a commercially available product for a while and electrolyzers have been a proven capability to provide additional benefits (e.g. controllable load for grid services) in addition to production of hydrogen. The hydrogen output is typically compressed for storage and dispensing. Compression adds cost and decreases system reliability. Honda’s electrolyzer systems have been developed to include electrochemical compression to leverage the production system itself for at least partial compression. In this project, the team will evaluate Honda’s PEM based electrochemical compression system. The system is capable of compressing hydrogen up to 70 MPa electrochemically. Validation testing is the next step to accelerate this technology into the marketplace, as the validation will provide needed data under a variety of operation conditions and controls. These operating conditions and controls are based on over a decade of NLR research and development with low-temperature electrolysis. The validation testing will include preparing NLR’s site for third party evaluation, benchmark testing of Honda’s stack and system, and simulating operation connected to renewables or in a grid service profile. NLR’s Energy System Integration Lab will be the location for the electrolyzer validation research and integrated into the Hydrogen Infrastructure Test & Research Facility (HITRF). This will build into the existing retail style hydrogen fueling station for a fully integrated experimental setup.
A molecular mechanism for the generation of ligand-dependent differential outputs by the epidermal growth factor receptor
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that couples the binding of extracellular ligands, such as EGF and transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α), to the initiation of intracellular signaling pathways. EGFR binds to EGF and TGF-α with similar affinity, but generates different signals from these ligands. To address the mechanistic basis of this phenomenon, we have carried out cryo-EM analyses of human EGFR bound to EGF and TGF-α. We show that the extracellular module adopts an ensemble of dimeric conformations when bound to either EGF or TGF-α. The two extreme states of this ensemble represent distinct ligand-bound quaternary structures in which the membrane-proximal tips of the extracellular module are either juxtaposed or separated. EGF and TGF-α differ in their ability to maintain the conformation with the membrane-proximal tips of the extracellular module separated, and this conformation is stabilized preferentially by an oncogenic EGFR mutation. Close proximity of the transmembrane helices at the junction with the extracellular module has been associated previously with increased EGFR activity. Our results show how EGFR can couple the binding of different ligands to differential modulation of this proximity, thereby suggesting a molecular mechanism for the generation of ligand-sensitive differential outputs in this receptor family.

Controlling a power output of a nuclear reaction without control rods
A nuclear power system includes a reactor vessel that includes a reactor core mounted therein. The reactor core includes nuclear fuel assemblies configured to generate a nuclear fission reaction. The reaction vessel does not include any control rod assemblies therein. The nuclear power system further includes a riser positioned above the reactor core, a primary coolant flow path, a primary coolant that circulates through the primary coolant flow path to receive heat from the nuclear fission reaction and release the received heat to generate electric power in a power generation, and a control system communicably coupled to the power generation system and configured to control a power output of the nuclear fission reaction independent of any control rod assemblies.
Tuning the output of a laser
In a general aspect, a laser system includes a laser and a frequency comb generator system. The laser is configured to generate a laser signal, and the frequency comb generator system is configured to generate a frequency comb based on the laser signal. The frequency comb includes frequency comb signals at respective comb frequencies. The laser system also includes a frequency comb dispersion system configured to spatially separate the frequency comb signals onto respective optical channels of the frequency comb dispersion system. The laser system additionally includes a frequency selector system configured to generate a selected frequency signal from the frequency comb signals after separation. The selected frequency signal includes a target separated frequency comb signal. The laser system also includes a frequency shifter configured to alter the selected frequency signal toward a target output frequency of the laser system.
Verification and Performance Impact of the New Parallel MCNP6.3 Particle Track Output Capability for Subcritical Multiplication Simulations
The MCNP6® code, version 6.3, has several new features that are intended to ultimately replace legacy features that are now marked for deprecation. One of these features is the new particle track output (PTRAC) format and capability, where the legacy PTRAC capability still exists alongside the modern PTRAC capability in MCNP6.3. While the MCNP6.3 code has been extensively verified and validated for many applications, the PTRAC feature is not exercised in any of the typical verification and validation (V&V) applications studied during the course of a typical MCNP code release. The primary goal of this paper is to verify that the legacy and modern PTRAC feature produces equivalent results for subcritical multiplication benchmarks previously studied. In the process of verifying that the simulated benchmark results are equivalent, the computational performance is compared between the legacy and modern PTRAC uses. In addition to verification of the update, which is important to the community as a whole, this effort also supports advances in the simulation of recent subcritical neutron noise measurements that require higher computational effort per second of real-time measurement than that of systems typically measured.
A 4 x 4 SiPM Sensor Array with Fast Preamplified Output Engineered for the PWO Detectors of the EIC EEEMCAL
The PbWO4 scintillation detectors for the Electron-Ion Collider Electron Endcap Electromagnetic Calorimeter (EEEMCAL) cannot use vacuum photomultipler tubes due to the high magnetic field environment. We are presenting a readout solution with a 4 x 4 SiPM array directly coupled to a preamplification and summing stage. A second amplification stage with variable gain and offset adjustments is also included in the compact electronics module. The integrated power supply feeds the signal processing chain and the adjustable bias control. The parameter settings are saved locally on a EEPROM and are adjustable via the integrated communication interface through USB or RS485. The design was optimized to maximize signal collection energy resolution, for fast timing and wide dynamic range while keeping a small footprint with low power consumption and heat dissipation. The output response is fast enough to meet the 100 ? 200 ns digitization gate requirements for the detector. The electronics assembly requires no active cooling and includes a temperature sensor and a gain compensation of thermal variations which are important features for stable operation in large scale detector structures. A detector prototype was constructed with 20 mm x 20 mm x 200 mm PWO crystals affixed with individual SiPM array readouts and arranged in a 3 x 3 array. This detector was tested at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility with 5GeV positrons. We will present the results of these detector characterization measurements.

Refining Absorber Shroud Geometry to Maximize Power Output and Reduce Power Peaking in ATF Test Train
In the wake of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident in 2011, the accident tolerant fuels (ATF) program was initiated to enhance the safety of light-water reactor fuels, placing significant emphasis on cladding. A crucial step for the broad implementation of ATF in commercial reactors involves irradiation testing of the fuel designs. ATF-2D, the latest experiment in the ATF series, is slated to undergo irradiation in the Advanced Test Reactor (ATR) at Idaho National Laboratory (INL). ATF-2D is a joint effort of the INL with industry partners General Electric Global Research; Framatome; General Atomics; the Japan Atomic Energy Agency; Hitachi-GE Nuclear Energy, Ltd; Global Nuclear Fuel-Japan Co., Ltd; Nippon Nuclear Fuel Development Co., Ltd; and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. The ATF-2D test train design consists of four tiers, each housing six rodlets. The device will be inserted in Loop 2A within the central flux trap of the ATR, and is anticipated to undergo irradiation throughout three 60-day cycles. Typical pressurized water reactor conditions will be emulated during the irradiation. The objective of the work presented here is to dimension neutron-absorbing hafnium (Hf) components surrounding the fuel rodlets, such that the axial power profile is flattened, while simultaneously ensuring that the total fission power output of the entire test train remains below 200 kW.
