Vehicular Integration of Wireless Power Transfer Systems and Hardware Interoperability Case Studies

Several wireless charging methods are under development or available as an aftermarket option in the light-duty automotive market. However, there are not a sufficient number of studies detailing the vehicle integration methods, particularly a complete vehicle integration with higher power levels. This paper presents the design, development, implementation, and vehicle integration of wireless power transfer (WPT)-based electric vehicle (EV) charging systems for various test vehicles. Before having the standards effective, it is expected that WPT technology first will be integrated as an aftermarket retrofitting approach. Inclusion of this technology on production vehicles is contingent upon the release of the international standards. The power stages of the system are introduced with the design specifications and control systems including the active front-end rectifier with power factor correction, high frequency power inverter, high frequency isolation transformer, coupling coils, vehicle side full-bridge rectifier and filter, and the vehicle battery. The operating principles of the control, and communications, systems are presented. Aftermarket conversion approaches including the WPT on-board charger (OBC) integration, WPT CHAdeMO integration, and WPT direct battery connection scenarios are described. Furthermore, the experiments are carried out using the integrated vehicles and the results obtained to demonstrate the system performance including the stage-by-stage efficiencies.

Towards Seamless Interoperability of MPI-OpenMP Applications

A chasm exists between mathematical software libraries written for MPI-based applications and those written for OpenMP applications. Recently, however, PETSc enables the simple use of its MPI-based linear solvers from OpenMP applications. Separately, the MPICH MPI development team has started a new project to allow almost seamless MPI use in OpenMP applications. Both proposed approaches would result in a similar user experience. Here, we discuss the reasons for these projects and their potential for providing more numerical library choices for OpenMP applications, including the unlimited assortment of linear solvers available in PETSc. In addition, we present the performance of an application using the first approach, demonstrating its efficacy.

Interoperable Technologies for Advanced Petascale Simulations

Our final report on the accomplishments of ITAPS at Stony Brook during period covered by the research award includes component service, interface service and applications. On the component service, we have designed and implemented a robust functionality for the Lagrangian tracking of dynamic interface. We have migrated the hyperbolic, parabolic and elliptic solver from stage-wise second order toward global second order schemes. We have implemented high order coupling between interface propagation and interior PDE solvers. On the interface service, we have constructed the FronTier application programer's interface (API) and its manual page using doxygen. We installed the FronTier functional interface to conform with the ITAPS specifications, especially the iMesh and iMeshP interfaces. On applications, we have implemented deposition and dissolution models with flow and implemented the two-reactant model for a more realistic precipitation at the pore level and its coupling with Darcy level model. We have continued our support to the study of fluid mixing problem for problems in inertial confinement fusion. We have continued our support to the MHD model and its application to plasma liner implosion in fusion confinement. We have simulated a step in the reprocessing and separation of spent fuels from nuclear power plant fuel rods. We have implemented the fluid-structure interaction for 3D windmill and parachute simulations. We have continued our collaboration with PNNL, BNL, LANL, ORNL, and other SciDAC institutions.

Buildings Interoperability Landscape – DRAFT

Buildings are an integral part of our nation’s energy economy. The advancement in information and communications technology (ICT) has revolutionized energy management in industrial facilities and large commercial buildings. As ICT costs decrease and capabilities increase, buildings automation and energy management features are transforming the small-medium commercial and residential buildings sectors. A vision of a connected world in which equipment and systems within buildings coordinate with each other to efficiently meet their owners’ and occupants’ needs, and where buildings regularly transact business with other buildings and service providers (such as gas and electric service providers) is emerging. However, while the technology to support this collaboration has been demonstrated at various degrees of maturity, the integration frameworks and ecosystems of products that support the ability to easily install, maintain, and evolve building systems and their equipment components are struggling to nurture the fledging business propositions of their proponents.

DARMA-MPI Interoperability WBS 2.3.1.04 Milestone 15 (ECP Milestone Report)

DARMA (Distributed Asynchronous Resilient Models for Applications) is a runtime library developed as part of the the Sandia ATDM (Advanced Technology Development and Mitigation) program. DARMA supports applications within 2.2.5.03 ADNN03-ASC ATDM SNL Application, which includes a number of applications featuring dynamic physics which requires load balancing and asynchronous communication for high performance. We have implemented a modern C++ programming model that can enable dynamic, asynchronous communication on top of existing data structures from a serial or MPI code. DARMA development has occurred in parallel with a verification milestone for ATDM in FY18. For FY19, DARMA will impact ATDM by enabling the performance benefits of a dynamic runtime through only incremental changes to existing verified MPI codes. The results presented here demonstrate the DARMA development process for an MPI mini-app, showing a 3-4x improvement in performance for a challenging problem relative to the parent MPI code and coming within 25 percent of the theoretically optimal performance achievable from a perfect, fine-grained load balancer for most cases.

DARMA-Kokkos Data and Execution Interoperability WBS 2.3.1.04 Milestone 16 (ECP Milestone Report)

DARMA (Distributed Asynchronous Resilient Models for Applications) is a runtime library supporting the Sandia ATDM (Advanced Technology Development and Mitigation) program. The main application drivers fall within the ECP milestone 2.2.5.03 ADNN03-ASC ATDM SNL Application, which includes applications that require load balancing and asynchronous communication for high performance. The DARMA runtime infrastructure has been modified to be compatible with Kokkos/OpenMP parallelization within tasks, which is a critical requirement for high performance for the Sandia ATDM apps. DARMA development has occurred in parallel with a verification milestone for ATDM in FY18. For FY19, DARMA should impact ATDM by enabling dynamic load balancing and communication through only incremental changes to the existing verified MPI codes. DARMA can now support the intra-kernel thread parallelization in the parent MPI apps, allowing DARMA to be easily added without rewriting individual math kernels. The results presented here demonstrate the DARMA results for an MPI mini-app.

Design Requirements and Hardware Specification for the Low-Cost, Interoperable, User-Centric, Supervisory Controller Kit for Small and Medium Size Commercial Buildings

Commercial buildings are responsible for approximately 20 percent of the total United States energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Over 85 percent of these buildings lack building automation systems to manage the various building systems they have. Many of these buildings are small (< 50,000 square feet), underserved, and use rooftop units (RTUs) for heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning needs. Because these buildings lack proper control systems, they have several operational deficiencies that lead to excess energy consumption. Studies have shown that managing the RTU’s heating and cooling setpoints, schedules, setbacks, and optimal start times can result in 20 to 25 percent reduction in electricity consumption in small and medium commercial buildings (SMBs). In addition, improving the demand flexibility of these buildings will result in additional cost savings for the building owner.
