Deposit geometry and oxygen concentration spatial variations due to composition change in printed functionally graded components

Functionally graded materials (FGMs) with site specific chemical composition are commonly manufactured by directed energy deposition (DED). Although previous work fabricated an FGM with a compositional variation between a ferritic and austenitic alloy, difficulties arose due to variations in deposit shape with composition change. This problem also occurs for FGMs in literature; however, unlike other cases, the thermophysical properties of these two alloys were similar throughout the build. Here, we investigate the role of chemical composition and surface-active elements on deposit geometry during the manufacture of FGMs by laser DED. Single-track experiments for the relevant FGM compositions are analyzed with results from a well-tested, three-dimensional, transient numerical heat transfer and fluid flow model and thermodynamic calculations. Experiments showed deposit shape varied as a function of composition for constant laser power and scan speed. Thermodynamic analysis indicated that the oxygen solubility in the fusion zone varied significantly for each composition used for the FGM. Numerical modeling revealed that the change in fluid flow caused by Marangoni convection due to dissolved oxygen in the fusion zone were mainly responsible for the changes in deposit shape observed in experiments. Finally, because oxygen can be introduced into the fusion zone through the feedstock as well as the surrounding atmosphere, these findings elucidate a previously unconsidered aspect of process control during DED fabrication of FGMs.

A remarkable CHF of 345W/cm 2 is achieved in a wicked-microchannel using HFE-7100

Boiling heat transfer of dielectric fluids is a promising cooling technique for thermal management of microelectronic systems. However, the critical heat flux achievable is generally low, because of the poor thermophysical properties of these fluids. Here, to address this dilemma, we propose a new cooling concept to substantially enhance global liquid supply during phase-change process using enhanced capillary-driven force. Additionally, dedicated vapor pathways are designed among a bank of micro-pillars to facilitate vapor removal. In this work, new wicks comprised of silicon micro-pinfin arrays are explored to significantly enhance the flow boiling heat transfer performance. To examine the functionalities of this wick, experiments on HFE-7100 were carried out with mass velocities varying from 247 to 3,465 kg/m 2 s. To explore the enhancement mechanisms and to analyze the capillary-assisted flow boiling process, visualization studies were conducted. The results indicate that sustainable evaporation induced by wick microstructures and efficient liquid supply are the enhancement mechanisms compared to parallel microchannels with solid walls. It is found that the overall heat transfer coefficient is substantially increased up to 75%. Remarkably, a high critical heat flux (CHF) of approximately 345 W/cm 2 is recorded at G = 3,465 kg/m 2 s at coolant inlet temperature of ~20 °C. Equally importantly, this noticeable enhancement of CHF value is associated with drastically decreased pressure drops compared to microchannels decorated with μ-pinfin fences.

Design and performance of a variable gap system for thermal conductivity measurements of high temperature, corrosive, and reactive fluids

We report high-temperature fluids such as molten salts, liquid metals, and gasses are being proposed for many advanced energy systems including thermal energy storage devices, concentrating solar plants, and advanced nuclear reactor designs. However, the chemical behavior and thermophysical properties of many of these fluids have not been well characterized, which hinders the design, modeling, safety analysis, and deployment of these systems. Thermal conductivity is a property that is especially limited by existing measurement capabilities, which are subject to errors caused by convection, material interaction, radiative heat transfer, and instrument degradation. Therefore, there is a lack of standard, systematic measurement techniques for high-temperature, reactive, and corrosive fluids. In this work, the development of a variable gap thermal conductivity measurement system is detailed. The system is designed to measure the thermal conductivity of highly corrosive and reactive fluids, and survive operation between 100 °C and 800 °C. The effects of convection are minimized by limiting the thickness of the specimen to thin sizes (<0.3 mm). Corrections for radiative heat transfer were included in the working equations to consider specimens with varying optical properties. The design, construction, instrumentation, operating principles, and data analysis techniques are discussed in detail. The system was tested up to 500 °C using helium gas and molten KNO 3 -NaNO 3 to verify the measurement technique and determine the sources of error. At 300 and 400 °C KNO 3 -NaNO 3 , results showed maximum relative error of 6% when compared to results in the literature. The helium results were within 13% of those in the literature at 300 and 400 °C. Higher errors were observed at 500 °C for both fluids, and the sources of these errors are discussed.

Enhancement of effective thermal conductivity of rGO/Mg nanocomposite packed beds

Engineering thermophysical properties of metal hydrides nanocomposites is crucial for effective thermal management during hydrogen storage reactions; however, the effect of microstructure on thermal transport mechanisms is still unclear. Here, we employed an integrated experiment-modeling approach to investigate microstructural factors that determine the effective thermal conductivity of individual reduced graphene oxide-magnesium (rGO/Mg) nanocomposites and their packed bed. Here the effective thermal conductivity of the rGO/Mg nanocomposite packed bed was measured by using guarded hot-plate method under various atmospheric conditions (i.e., vacuum, Ar and He). A microstructure-aware mesoscopic modeling revealed that anisotropy of the effective thermal conductivity of individual rGO/Mg nanocomposites plays an important role in determining the effective thermal conductivity of their packed bed. The validated mesoscopic model also disclosed a nontrivial interplay between the intrinsic rGO properties and the extrinsic composite structural features. Finally, quantitative sensitivity analysis based on the modeling framework is used to provide practical engineering guidance for controlling the thermal transport within nanocomposite packed beds.

Thermal conductivity measurement using modulated photothermal radiometry for nitrate and chloride molten salts

Molten salts are being used or explored for thermal energy storage and conversion systems in concentrating solar power and nuclear power plants. Thermal conductivity of molten salts is an important thermophysical property dictating the performance and cost of these systems, but its accurate measurement has been challenging, as evidenced by wide scattering of existing data in literature. The corrosive and conducting nature of these fluids also leads to time consuming sample preparation processes of many contact-based measurements. Here, in this work, we report the measurement of thermal conductivity of molten salts using a modulated photothermal radiometry (MPR) technique, which is a laser-based, non-contact, frequency-domain method adopted for molten salts for the first time. By unitizing the advantages of front side sensing of frequency-domain measurements and the vertical holder orientation, the technique can minimize the natural convection and salt creeping effects, thus yielding accurate molten salt thermal conductivity . The MPR technique is first calibrated using standard molten materials including paraffin wax and sulfur. It is then applied on measuring pure nitrate salts (NaNO 3 and KNO 3 ), solar salt (NaNO 3 –KNO 3 mixture), and chloride salt (NaCl–KCl–MgCl 2 ). The measurement results are compared with data from literature, especially those obtained from laser flash analysis (LFA). Our results demonstrate that the MPR is a convenient and reliable technique of measuring thermal conductivity of molten salts. Accurate thermal conductivity data of molten salts will be valuable in developing the next-generation high-temperature thermal energy storage and conversion systems.

Microstructural evolution of Mo-UO 2 cermets under high temperature hydrogen environments

Ceramic-metallic (cermet) materials show promise for use in nuclear thermal propulsion applications due to attractive thermophysical properties including high temperature stability and high thermal conductivity. In this work, molybdenum-uranium dioxide (Mo-UO 2 ) cermet fuel elements were fabricated by means of spark plasma sintering (SPS) and were subsequently exposed to hydrogen at high temperatures (2500 K). Mo-UO 2 samples pre- and post-exposure were characterized by means of optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Microscopy analyses of the as-produced material displayed microscopic cracking on the interior of the spherical UO 2 fuel particles but confirmed that the fuel particles were fully encapsulated in the Mo matrix. The results further showed mass loss, macroscopic swelling, and cracking in the cermet samples which occurred during high temperature hydrogen testing. Nanoscale swelling was evidenced by XRD in the Mo matrix and UO 2 fuel structure due to the incorporation of defects and accompanied microstrain.

Characterization of the molten salt FMgNaK through ab initio molecular dynamics and experimental density measurements

The selection of a salt species for use in a molten salt reactor MSR is a key part of any MSR design. However, many salts have sparse or no thermophysical property data sets, especially those with higher melting points. One such salt is the eutectic mixture of (NaF)0.345(KF)0.59(MgF 2 )0.065, or FMgNaK, and is explored here through ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulation (1023-1273K) as well as experimental measurement of the liquid density using the Archimedean method (973-1223K). Predicted densities from AIMD are similar to experimentally-measured densities, though with more noise, suggesting that the small scale necessitated by AIMD simulations may be problematic for simulating FMgNaK in particular. Here the coefficient of thermal expansion is predicted from simulation, and salt structure is characterized. Mg-F-Mg chaining is observed in the salt network, though the low concentration of Mg inhibits chaining on the scale that is observed in (LiF) 0.67 (BeF 2 ) 0.33 , or FLiBe.

Magnetism and finite-temperature effects in UZr 2 : A density functional theory analysis

The structure and the thermophysical properties of d-UZr 2 are investigated using 0 K density functional theory and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD). Modeling the true paramagnetic state of this intermetallic compound has been challenging using first-principles calculations. For the first time, we find that the generalized gradient approximation method without applying an on-site Coulomb interaction term (Hubbard U) can result in a ground state that is antiferromagnetic (AFM). We believe that this weak AFM ground state is the closest to the real paramagnetic state. We found that structure optimization at finite temperatures using AIMD is necessary to achieve this ground state instead of the non-magnetic and ferromagnetic states previously reported in the literature. Our findings indicate that applying the Hubbard U on uranium f-orbitals in this metallic system is unnecessary and not recommended, as it leads to a large overestimation of the volume and introduces an unphysical strong spin polarization. Finally, our approach results in atomic volume, thermal expansion, and heat capacities that have strong agreement with experiments.

KCl-UCl 3 molten salts investigated by Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics (AIMD) simulations

Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics (AIMD) simulations are performed on molten KCl-UCl3 salt mixtures to determine energies, heat capacities, and densities. The density-dependent energy correction (DFT-dDsC), Grimme et al.'s DFT-D3, and Langreth & Lundqvist (vdW-cx) models are used for dispersion forces and combined with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) exchange-correlation potential with a Hubbard U parameter for the 5f electrons of uranium. After validating predictions for the end-member systems to literature data, KCl-UCl 3 mixtures are studied at select temperatures. Densities and energies both deviate from ideal solution behavior, with the maximum deviation occurring around 36% UCl 3 for mixing energies and slightly lower (29% UCl3) for densities. Compared to the NaCl-UCl 3 system, which was previously investigated using the same simulation methodologies, the KCl-UCl 3 density and mixing energy deviations from ideal solution behavior are larger by almost a factor of two. No deviation from ideal solution behavior for heat capacity was observed. The AIMD predictions for mixing energies and densities agree qualitatively with experimental data, though the spread in data obtained from the various dispersion force models utilized, measurements, and empirical estimates makes strong conclusions difficult. The dependence of thermodynamic and thermophysical properties on composition is correlated with the local chemistry of the solution phase, in particular, the tendency of UCl 3 to form network structures.

Clarifying the formation of equiaxed grains and microstructural refinement in the additive manufacturing of Ti-Cu

Controlling microstructural evolution in metallic additive manufacturing (AM) is difficult, especially in producing refined as-built grains instead of coarse, directional grains. Traditional solutions involve adding inoculants to AM feedstocks, but titanium (Ti) alloys cannot employ this approach without producing detrimental secondary phases. Ti-Cu (Ti-copper) alloys offer a solution through constitutional supercooling and/or solid state thermal cycling under AM conditions. This work analyzes a compositionally graded directed energy deposition (DED) Ti-Cu build, single-melt laser tracks, and dilatometric heat treatments to evaluate if, when, and by what mechanism(s) microstructural refinement occurs. Refinement by inoculation of unmelted powder particles was also considered. Constitutional supercooling produced no net microstructural refinement as any equiaxed dendrites which form are remelted with new deposition. This finding agreed with solidification modeling of powder bed fusion-laser beam (PBF-LB) and DED builds. Solid state thermal cycling refined microstructures only during ex-situ dilatometric heat treatments, suggesting build parameter optimization is needed to achieve refinement in-situ. Accidental heterogeneous nucleation on unmelted Ti powder, originating from the different thermophysical properties of Ti and Cu, provided the most significant microstructural refinement. This work systematically assesses the microstructural refinement mechanisms of Ti-Cu in AM builds and offers insights into microstructural control in eutectoid alloys.

Thermal cycling-driven microstructural changes of eutectic Al–Si phase change materials in SS304 containers revealed by multi-modal imaging

Aluminum-based Al–Si alloys are widely used as phase change materials (PCMs) in thermal energy storage (TES) systems owing to their high volumetric latent heat and superior thermal conductivity. However, their long-term reliability is limited by degradation processes that remain insufficiently understood. In this work, we employ a multimodal, correlative characterization framework to systematically resolve the degradation behavior of eutectic Al–Si PCMs in contact with SS304 containers under repeated thermal cycling. By integrating high-resolution electron microscopy, three-dimensional X-ray fluorescence (3D XRF) imaging, and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), we directly link spatially resolved compositional and microstructural evolution to changes in thermophysical properties. The correlative analysis reveals that elemental leaching of Fe, Cr, and Ni from the stainless-steel container into the PCM drives the formation of intermetallic compounds (IMCs) both at the interface and within the bulk PCM, leading to pronounced compositional heterogeneity. These interfacial reactions and diffusion-induced transformations progressively destabilize the Al–Si eutectic, reducing the effective phase-transforming fraction. Consistent with these observations, DSC measurements show a decrease in melting temperature and latent heat of fusion with thermal cycling. These results underscore the critical influence of interfacial reactions and material compatibility on the stability, durability, and overall performance of Al–Si-based TES systems.

Investigation of the thermal conductivity of molten LiF-NaF-KF with experiments, theory, and equilibrium molecular dynamics

Molten salts are being proposed for numerous advanced energy applications, including advanced nuclear reactors, concentrating solar power plants, thermal energy storage, and fusion reactors. Accurate knowledge of the thermophysical properties of molten salts directly impact the performance of these energy systems and are essential for design and safety analyses. Thermal conductivity data for fluoride molten salts and mixtures are especially lacking. In this work, experimental measurements of thermal conductivity using the steady-state variable gap technique were performed on eutectic LiF-NaF-KF from 834 to 1195 K. The experiment accounts for radiative, convective, and conductive heat losses. In addition, theoretical and molecular dynamics models are used, from 750 K up to 1300 K, to estimate the thermal conductivity for comparison with the experimental results. The results of experiments show a weak negative deviation of thermal conductivity with temperature, unlike previous experimental results in the literature. The measured thermal conductivity magnitudes agree with the theoretical and molecular dynamics predictions, aside from the data above 1100 K, where heat losses and radiative errors are the most significant, having a 16% maximum deviation from theory. These experimental results provide new thermal conductivity data for the LiF-NaF-KF system and further validation of the predictive models. The theoretical model was used to map the composition and temperature dependent thermal conductivity of LiF-NaF-KF and the mapping’s deviation from a linear additivity estimation of thermal conductivity. Additionally, this mapping showed the highest deviations from linearity for KF-LiF rich mixtures and increasing deviation with temperature. Notably, the deviation from linearity near the LiF-NaF-KF eutectic composition was around 25%.

Review of molten salt reactor off-gas management considerations

Molten salt reactors offer a wide range of potential benefits but pose some unique challenges, particularly for designs that use an unclad liquid salt fuel. This type of fuel will result in the transport of fission gases into the headspace of the reactor where in some designs a cover gas can be circulated to remove certain fission products and maintain an inert atmosphere. The cover gas leaving the reactor core is expected to contain both noble and non-noble gases, aerosols, volatile species, tritium, radionuclides, and their daughters. To remove these radioactive gases, it is necessary to develop a robust off-gas system for molten salt–fueled reactors. Various treatment systems must be staged in series to remove the off-gas constituents from the stream before recirculating the gas back to the headspace of the reactor. Treatment options vary greatly depending on what they are designed to remove from the gas stream. This paper reviews the anticipated composition of a typical molten salt reactor off-gas stream and subsequently the available resources that could be employed to remove these species from the gas stream. An example off-gas system is then detailed, along with important design considerations, exemplifying the necessity for high-fidelity modeling. Lastly, the need for further thermophysical property research and the employment of advanced sensor technology for treatment component testing are discussed.

Impact of anisotropy on TRISO fuel performance

Manufacturing of tristructural isotropic (TRISO) particles involves the deposition of pyrolytic carbon (PyC) and silicon carbide (SiC) layers using the fluidized bed chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. The CVD process is known to generate polycrystalline layers with crystallographic textures, which imparts anisotropic thermophysical properties to the layers. Past studies have shown the risk for particle failure increases with an increase in anisotropy. The limit beyond which the anisotropy of PyC layers becomes unacceptable due to failure risk has been identified as a high-priority knowledge gap. This work presents a first systematic study on the effects of anisotropic thermal and mechanical properties on TRISO fuel performance. This computational study, performed using the fuel performance code BISON, investigates how the anisotropy in elasticity and thermal properties affect the stresses, temperature, and failure of a TRISO particle. The influence of other factors, such as operating temperature and particle geometry on the anisotropy effects, also has been analyzed. The studies utilize the recently published anisotropic elasticity and thermal behavior models for TRISO PyC and SiC layers implemented using tensors with full anisotropic capability. The spherical TRISO particles with anisotropic properties were found to have greater maximum tensile stress and significantly higher failure probability than the spherical particles with isotropic properties. In conclusion, the fuel performance predicted using these recently developed models was found to be comparable with the performance obtained using the historical models.

SMR safety through HTTF modeling and benchmark efforts for code validation for gas-cooled reactor applications

Accurate modeling and simulation tools for thermal-hydraulics calculations are a key element needed to design and license new advanced reactors including Small Modular Reactors (SMR) and Microreactors. Uncertainties in modeling and simulation can have significant safety and economic implications. The High Temperature Test Facility (HTTF) at Oregon State University (OSU) is a scaled integral effects experiment designed to investigate transient behavior in high-temperature gas-cooled prismatic-block nuclear reactors. High-quality measurement data is available from the HTTF that is suitable for a thermal-hydraulics code validation benchmark for gas-cooled reactor simulations. Here, this paper summarizes individual HTTF modeling efforts to date for tool validation at Idaho National Laboratory (INL), Argonne National Laboratory (ANL), Oregon State University (OSU) and Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) using system thermal-hydraulics codes, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) codes and system-CFD code couplings. Also, the paper introduces the ongoing OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) High Temperature Gas Reactor Thermal-Hydraulics (HTGR T/H) benchmark that allows for better comparisons of results between different international modeling teams. The benchmark provides well defined computational problems that include code-to-code comparisons and comparisons to measured data. These problems provide an avenue for quantifying accuracy and identifying sources of uncertainty in thermal-hydraulics calculations, including in measured thermophysical properties, as part of validation for gas-cooled reactor simulation tools.

An a priori evaluation of a principal component and artificial neural network based combustion model in diesel engine conditions

A principal component analysis (PCA) and artificial neural network (ANN) based chemistry tabulation approach is presented. ANNs are used to map the thermochemical state onto a low-dimensional manifold consisting of five control variables that have been identified using PCA. Three canonical configurations are considered to train the PCA-ANN model: a series of homogeneous reactors, a nonpremixed flamelet, and a two-dimensional lifted flame. The performance of the model in predicting the thermochemical manifold of a spatially-developing turbulent jet flame in diesel engine thermochemical conditions is a priori evaluated using direct numerical simulation (DNS) data. The PCA-ANN approach is compared with a conventional tabulation approach (tabulation using ad hoc defined control variables and linear interpolation). The PCA-ANN model provides higher accuracy and requires several orders of magnitude less memory. Here, these observations indicate that the PCA-ANN model is superior for chemistry tabulation, especially for modelling complex chemistries that present multiple combustion modes as observed in diesel combustion. The performance of the PCA-ANN model is then compared to the optimal estimator, i.e. the conditional mean from the DNS. The results indicate that the PCA-ANN model gives high prediction accuracy, comparable to the optimal estimator, especially for major species and the thermophysical properties. Higher errors are observed for the minor species and reaction rate predictions when compared to the optimal estimator. It is shown that the prediction of minor species and reaction rates can be improved by using training data that exhibits a variation of parameters as observed in the turbulent flame. The output of the ANN is analysed to assess mass conservation. It is observed that the ANN incurs a mean absolute error of 0.05% in mass conservation. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that this error can be reduced by modifying the cost function of the ANN to penalise for deviation from mass conservation.

Additive manufacturing and testing of a ceramic heat exchanger for high-temperature and high-pressure applications for concentrating solar power

Heat exchangers with excellent corrosion and oxidation resistances are essential for the next-generation concentrating solar power (CSP) plants using a molten salt heat transfer fluid and a supercritical CO 2 Brayton power cycle that can operate at temperatures > 700 °C for higher efficiencies. Techniques were developed for additively manufacturing ceramic materials for applications involving high temperature, high pressure, and high corrosion resistance as needed for the CSP application. Based on a previous ceramic heat exchanger design with its cross-section geometry of the flow channels optimized for heat transfer and mechanical strength, lab-scale prototype heat exchangers, with integrated headers and incorporated flow channel dimensional compensations, were fabricated by using the binder jetting process. The printed prototype heat exchangers were successfully densified through the processes of liquid polymer infiltration and pyrolysis. In addition, thermophysical properties of the densified silicon carbide parts were measured to provide necessary design information. Experimental heat transfer testing of the lab-scale prototype heat exchanger was conducted, and the experimental data agreed reasonably well with the simulated results. Furthermore, this agreement provides validation of the simulation models for their applicability to the development of a full-scale ceramic heat exchanger.

Air separation and N 2 purification with Ba 0.15 Sr 0.85 FeO 3-$δ$ via a two-step thermochemical process

Thermochemical air separation to produce high-purity N 2 was demonstrated in a vertical tube reactor via a two-step reduction–oxidation cycle with an A-site substituted perovskite Ba 0.15 Sr 0.85 FeO 3–δ (BSF1585). BSF1585 particles were synthesized and characterized in terms of their chemical, morphological, and thermophysical properties. A thermodynamic cycle model and sensitivity analysis using computational heat and mass transfer models of the reactor were used to select the system operating parameters for a concentrating solar thermal-driven process. Thermal reduction up to 800 °C in air and temperature-swing air separation from 800 °C to minimum temperatures between 400 and 600 °C were performed in the reactor containing a 35 g packed bed of BSF1585. The reactor was characterized for dispersion, and air separation was characterized via mass spectrometry. Gas measurements indicated that the reactor produced N 2 with O 2 impurity concentrations as low as 0.02 % for > 30 min of operation. Additionally, a parametric study of air flow rates suggested that differences in observed and thermodynamically predicted O 2 impurities were due to imperfect gas transport in the bed. Temperature swing reduction/oxidation cycling experiments between 800 and 400 °C in air were conducted with no statistically significant degradation in N 2 purity over 50 cycles.
