CompLaB v1.0: a scalable pore-scale model for flow, biogeochemistry, microbial metabolism, and biofilm dynamics

Abstract. Microbial activity and chemical reactions in porous media depend on the local conditions at the pore scale and can involve complex feedback with fluid flow and mass transport. We present a modeling framework that quantitatively accounts for the interactions between the bio(geo)chemical and physical processes and that can integrate genome-scale microbial metabolic information into a dynamically changing, spatially explicit representation of environmental conditions. The model couples a lattice Boltzmann implementation of Navier–Stokes (flow) and advection–diffusion-reaction (mass conservation) equations. Reaction formulations can include both kinetic rate expressions and flux balance analysis, thereby integrating reactive transport modeling and systems biology. We also show that the use of surrogate models such as neural network representations of in silico cell models can speed up computations significantly, facilitating applications to complex environmental systems. Parallelization enables simulations that resolve heterogeneity at multiple scales, and a cellular automaton module provides additional capabilities to simulate biofilm dynamics. The code thus constitutes a platform suitable for a range of environmental, engineering and – potentially – medical applications, in particular ones that involve the simulation of microbial dynamics.

Analysis of ignition and stabilization modes in diesel spray flames using large eddy simulations and chemical explosive mode analysis

In this work, spray flames under diesel engine conditions are numerically investigated to understand the ignition and stabilization characteristics, based on state-of-the-art large eddy simulations (LES) and chemical explosive mode analysis (CEMA). In particular, CEMA is employed to identify such critical flame features as auto-ignition, premixed flame fronts, cool and strongly burning flames, and local extinction. In particular, a recently developed CEMA-based criterion for demarcating local combustion modes, that is, auto-ignition, diffusion-assisted ignition, and extinction, is applied to gain in-depth insights into the interactions of local chemical and transport processes. A series of one-dimensional non-premixed flamelets with varying air temperatures and scalar dissipation rates are first analyzed using CEMA with a focus on the role of each local mode in the transient ignition process. CEMA-based diagnostics are then applied to diesel spray flames at different ambient temperatures. The structure of local combustion modes is identified, while the contribution from each local mode to overall flame burning is quantified at different stages of the flame developing process. Effects of the ambient temperature on local combustion mode distribution, and subsequently on the ignition and stabilization mechanisms, are further examined. Results show that auto-ignition is the main mechanism for flame initiation and stabilization, while the role of diffusion is substantially enhanced as ambient temperature decreases.

Soft Robotic Glove System for Wearable Haptic Teleoperation - 18373

Managing nuclear waste is a difficult, dangerous, and costly task. Teleoperation of robotic operators is an important functionality for this application, allowing robotic devices to operate in dangerous environments while still leveraging the existing abilities and technical knowledge of human workers. One difficulty in implementing effective teleoperation systems is that human operators rely on more senses beside sight: in particular, touch. The sense of touch could provide significant benefits for teleoperation, preventing environmental mishaps that could cost millions of dollars. To help remedy this problem, we present a soft haptic feedback glove system. The primary functionality of this system is to provide tactile and force feedback on the user's hands. This was achieved using custom cylindrical pneumatic actuators. These actuators consist of plastic sheeting folded into a hollow-walled cylinder which is connected to a pressure source. When pressurized, the cylinder walls expand and the cylinder straightens, with the force being related to the pressure. The glove system has one of these actuators over each of the user's three main fingers (index, middle, and thumb), where pressurizing the actuator applies a reaction force to the finger of the user, mimicking the resistance of a grasped object. The expansion of these actuators also causes them to physically press against the user's fingers, giving them the feeling of contact. To demonstrate the usability of this system, we implemented a virtual environment in V-REP simulating the interactions between a robotic Jaco Arm and a floating ball. This simulation receives hand and figure positions from the haptic glove and used them to drive the state of the simulated Jaco Arm. In response to the interactions between the Jaco and the floating ball, the simulation returns commands to the glove, instructing it to pressurize or depressurize its actuators as appropriate, allowing the user to feel the ball in their hand. We tested users in their ability to prevent the ball from floating away using this system with and without the haptic feedback. Results show that the addition of haptic feedback significantly improved the ability of users to interact precisely with the environment. We also used the finger positions of the haptic glove to control a physical robotic hand, and demonstrated the system's usability for control of real robots, though the lack of sensors on the robot made providing the tactile feedback impractical. However, there is more to grasping and holding an object than just the feeling of contact and the resistance to closing one's hand. The weight of the object will apply forces to the user's other joints as they hold it. To this end, we added a haptic feedback device for the user's wrist, a technique that can be generalized to the user's other joints. This is made up of reverse Pneumatic Artificial Muscles (rPAMs) stretching across the wrist between mounts on the hand and forearm. These rPAM actuators are tubes of silicone wrapped in thread such that they extend when pressurized. This extension can apply torque on the user's wrist, mimicking the feeling of gravity, or allowing the simulation of additional contact forces (such as the user's hand impacting an object). We tested this wrist device independently using a simulated path-following experiment. Users showed a significant improvement in performance when aided by haptic feedback during sinusoidal path experiments, demonstrating the usability of this approach. We then integrated the two systems, further demonstrating the usability of this approach. This project represents the first step towards a more effective robotic teleoperation system, allowing skilled human workers to perform tasks more effectively while remaining out of danger.

Design, Flow Field, and Heat Transfer Characterization of the Conjugate Aero-Thermal Test Facility at NETL

A new aerothermal test facility was constructed for the purpose of studying film cooling performance in an environment that accurately simulates conjugate heat transfer characteristics that exist in engine operation. Here, this paper details the design of the facility and the plan for conducting steady state film cooling experiments to improve the understanding of conjugate heat transfer scaling from laboratory to engine conditions. The test facility consists of two separate low channels (hot gas/coolant) and each gas path has a flow conditioning section, a convergent nozzle and a test section/channel with viewports. Numerical simulations were conducted to predict flow field characteristics supporting the design of the flow loop facility. Preliminary experiments were conducted to characterize the flow field using velocity and temperature profile measurements. In addition, infrared (IR) thermography methods were developed to measure surface temperatures on the hot side of the test plate. The IR measurement methods including calibration of the IR camera is explained in detail. It was concluded that appropriate hot gas path flow conditioning could be achieved using a strainer-like tube, a perforated plate, and a honeycomb-mesh screen system upstream of the test section. Flow field measurements from preliminary experiments showed that the boundary layer profile follows the law of the wall.

Importance of turbulence-chemistry interactions at low temperature engine conditions

The role of turbulence-chemistry interaction in autoignition and flame stabilization is investigated for spray flames at low temperature combustion (LTC) conditions by performing high-fidelity three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. A recently developed Tabulated Flamelet Model (TFM) is coupled with a large eddy simulation (LES) framework and validated across a range of Engine Combustion Network (ECN) ambient temperature conditions for n-dodecane fuel. High resolution grids with 0.0625 mm minimum cell size and 25 million total cell count are implemented using adaptive mesh refinement over the spray and combustion regions. Simulations with these grids and multiple LES realizations, with a 103 species n-dodecane mechanism show good agreement with experimental data for all the ambient conditions investigated. This modeling approach with the computational cost advantage of tabulated chemistry is then extended towards understanding the auto-ignition and flame stabilization at an ambient temperature of 750 K. These low temperature conditions lead to substantially higher ignition delays and flame liftoff lengths, and significantly leaner combustion compared to conventional high temperature diesel combustion. These conditions also require the simulations to span significantly larger temporal and spatial dimensions thereby increasing the computational cost. The TFM approach is able to capture autoignition and flame liftoff length at the low temperature conditions. Significant differences with respect to mixing, species formation and flame stabilization are observed under low temperature compared to conventional diesel combustion. At higher ambient temperatures, formation of formaldehyde is observed in the rich region (phi > 1) followed by the formation of OH in the stoichiometric regions. Under low temperature conditions, formaldehyde is observed to form at leaner regions followed by the onset of OH formation in significantly lean regions of the flame. Qualitative differences between species formation and transient flame development for the high and low temperature conditions are presented. The two stage ignition process is further investigated by studying the species formation in mixture fraction space by solving 1D flamelet equations for different scalar dissipation rates and homogeneous reactor assumption. Results show that scalar dissipation causes these radicals to diffuse within the mixture fraction space. As a result, this significantly enhances ignition and plays a dominant role at such low temperature conditions which cannot be captured by the homogeneous reaction assumption based model.

Thermo-hydraulic steam pipe models for district heating simulations: Simplifications to balance accuracy and simulation speed

Steam piping networks are essential for optimizing performance in industrial processes and district heating systems. However, dynamic models that balance thermo-hydraulic accuracy with computational efficiency remain limited. In response, this paper presents a new discretized steam pipe model based on the plug flow approach, capturing key thermo-hydraulic behaviors while simplifying steam phase change processes. Implemented in Modelica, the model accurately calculates temperature and pressure distributions along steam pipelines. To improve computational efficiency for district-scale simulations, five model simplifications are introduced: lumped thermo-hydraulic functions, empirical correlations, fluid state approximations, steady-state dynamics and inclusion of flow derivatives. These simplified models achieve 85%-98% accuracy in predicting pressure drop and condensation losses, including dynamic condensate behavior during pipe warm-up—a factor often overlooked in existing models. The models support diverse network configurations, scaling effectively to systems with multiple distribution pipes and connected building loads. Discrete models provide detailed insights but exhibit a cubic increase in simulation time as the network scales by N connected building O(N 2.42 ). In contrast, lumped models simulate 10–28 times faster than discrete, offering quadratic scaling of simulation time O(N 1.73 ). However, they still require 6 times more computation time than a lossless network, highlighting the inherent computational challenges of modeling compressible fluid flow. In conclusion, the steady-state lumped variant, with its near-linear scalability in computational time O(N 1.01 ), emerges as an efficient solution for preliminary design evaluations and extensive parametric studies.

Numerical Simulation of V-shaped Segregation in Continuous Casting Blooms Based on a Microsegregation Model

This study establishes a volume-averaged model for transport phenomena to study V-shaped segregation in continuous casting blooms with different superheating and cooling rates by coupling fluid flow, macro-scale heat transfer, and solute transport. The results demonstrate that the modified Won–Thomas model considering back diffusion in the solid phase corresponds well with the measured carbon segregation. V-shaped segregation decreases with decreasing superheating and increases slightly with decreases in the cooling rate. The results of original position statistical distribution analysis correspond well with the simulation results. This phenomenon can be exploited to improve the quality of bloom.

OC7 phase I: CFD investigation of viscous forces on rectangular members of semisubmersibles

In Phase I of the Offshore Code Comparison Collaboration 7 (OC7) project, we aim to address key questions related to the modeling of viscous hydrodynamic loads on floating platforms. Here, this paper presents results from a collaborative effort within Phase I of the OC7 project. We investigate viscous forces acting on the rectangular members of semisubmersible platforms using high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. The parametric CFD analyses include two-and-a-half-dimensional (2.5D) simulations of pontoon sections of two different semisubmersible platform designs (the VolturnUS-S and the INO WINDMOOR) and full three-dimensional (3D) structure simulations of the VolturnUS-S platform. We extract both the added mass and drag coefficients that are typically used in engineering-level hydrodynamic models from the 2.5D forced oscillation simulations with various Keulegan-Carpenter numbers and compare them to the coefficients from the 3D forced oscillation simulations. We observe consistent variation of the coefficients along the pontoon legs due to 3D platform and free-surface effects. With the breadth of the simulations and component-level detailed analyses, this work establishes a useful database and several empirical formulas for selecting hydrodynamic coefficients when modeling semisubmersible platforms in engineering tools.

HFTS-1 Natural Joint Data and Engineering Summary

This report provides an analysis of engineering and geologic data collected from the Hydraulic Fracturing Test Site #1 (HTSF-1) project in the southern Midland Basin, Reagan County, Texas. The site is being studied as part of the Science-informed Machine Learning for Accelerating Real-Time Decisions in Subsurface Applications (SMART) Initiative at the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL). The data collected is intended to provide a basis of understanding of the site and to construct simulation models. This report provides a summary analysis of the engineering and geologic data collected from the project to provide a basis of understanding of the site and to construct simulation models. The report examines various possible correlations in engineering properties based on natural fracture data from the program, which consisted of 11 horizontal wells, one vertical well, and one slant well. The horizontal wells are in two horizons: 1) Upper and 2) Middle Wolfcamp formations. Program data include: fracture frequency and fracture orientation data from four core runs in a slant well; fracture spacing and orientation from a vertical pilot well; laboratory triaxial testing and mineralogical determinations; and porosity results from magnetic resonance analyses from various wells, together with observations based on the data collection. In addition, available references were reviewed on the site for additional insights. As the focus of the report is on the natural system, hydraulic fracture data from the site were not examined in detail in this report. Data variability is the chief observation in examination of the database. Fracture frequency in the slant well can range from sections with values as high as five fractures per ft to sections up to 100+ ft in length with no natural observed fractures. Fracture spacing across is typically less than 10 ft, but can range up to hundreds of feet. Apparent fracturing shows the trends in two predominate orientations, E-SW and WNW-ESE, but minor variations exist. The rock units vary across the site from siliceous mudstones to calcareous mudstones, showing a general layering with depth. The laboratory properties such as strength and modulus show no apparent trend with depth, but appear to correlate with rock mineralogy with high strength and modulus values where calcium content is high. In addition, an attempt to examine variability and mineralogy on a larger scale was made using a color-coded system based on gamma ray measurements. A staged colored approach was adopted, presuming that lower gamma ray values indicate higher value of calcium content (blue scale) and that higher gamma ray values indicate higher clay mineral content (orange scale). As provided in report appendices, the system correlated well with visual examination of the slant core and the petrofabric analyses of the vertical pilot well. The results showed large variability in mineral content along the horizontal plane across the site. The change in mineral content was also rapid, on a scale less than that of the average hydraulic fracture stage length of about 180 ft.

A machine learning Automated Recommendation Tool for synthetic biology

Abstract Synthetic biology allows us to bioengineer cells to synthesize novel valuable molecules such as renewable biofuels or anticancer drugs. However, traditional synthetic biology approaches involve ad-hoc engineering practices, which lead to long development times. Here, we present the Automated Recommendation Tool (ART), a tool that leverages machine learning and probabilistic modeling techniques to guide synthetic biology in a systematic fashion, without the need for a full mechanistic understanding of the biological system. Using sampling-based optimization, ART provides a set of recommended strains to be built in the next engineering cycle, alongside probabilistic predictions of their production levels. We demonstrate the capabilities of ART on simulated data sets, as well as experimental data from real metabolic engineering projects producing renewable biofuels, hoppy flavored beer without hops, fatty acids, and tryptophan. Finally, we discuss the limitations of this approach, and the practical consequences of the underlying assumptions failing.

Hybrid large-eddy simulation with adaptive downstream anisotropic eddy viscosity model

Turbulence pervades most flows of engineering interest, and its prediction remains a challenge on both accuracy and cost. One promising predictive approach that reduces cost combines large-eddy simulation (LES) with simulation based on Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations (RANS). This study presents a method to overcome stability and accuracy issues associated with these hybrid LES-RANS methods. The method developed involves extracting the Reynolds stresses from the upstream LES solution and then using that information to convert the downstream RANS model from a scalar eddy-viscosity model to an anisotropic nonlinear eddy-viscosity model. The method developed differs from the downstream tensorial eddy-viscosity model by being independent of the coordinate system. The method developed was evaluated by computing film cooling of a flat plate with the coolant injected through one row of circular holes. Results obtained show instabilities at the LES-to-RANS interface to be eliminated. Also, the method developed yielded solutions that compare reasonably well with those from LES, even though a significant portion of the flow is computed by the adapted anisotropic RANS model instead of LES, which significantly reduced the number of grid points and computational time needed. Since modification of the downstream RANS model is based on information extracted from the upstream LES solution, the method developed is adaptive to the problem being studied.

Development of an Efficient Conjugate Heat Transfer Modeling Framework to Optimize Mixing-Limited Combustion of Ethanol in a Diesel Engine

Mixing controlled combustion of alcohol fuels has been identified as a promising technology based on their low propensity for particulate and NOx production, but the higher heats of vaporization and auto-ignition temperatures of these fuels make their direct use in diesel engine architectures a challenge. To realize the potential of alcohol-fueled combustion, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling framework is developed, validated, and exercised to identify designs that maximize engine thermal efficiency. To evaluate the use of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), a simplified one-dimensional (1D) conjugate heat transfer (CHT) modeling framework is employed. The addition of the 1D CHT model only increases the computational expense by 15% relative to traditional approaches, yet offers more accurate heat transfer predictions over constant temperature boundary conditions. The validated model is then used to explore a range of injector orientations and piston bowl geometries. Using a design of experiments (DoE) approach, several designs were identified that improved fuel-air mixing, shortened the combustion duration, and increased thermal efficiency. The most promising design was fabricated and tested in a Caterpillar 1Y3700 single-cylinder oil test engine (SCOTE). Engine testing confirmed the findings from the CFD simulations and found that the co-optimized injector and piston bowl design yielded over 2-percentage point increase in thermal efficiency at the same equivalence ratio (0.96) and over 6-percentage point increase at the same engine load (10.1 bar indicated mean effective pressure (IMEP)), while satisfying design constraints for peak pressure and maximum pressure rise rate.

Performance Evaluation of Augmented Teleoperation of Contact Manipulation Tasks

At Argonne National Laboratory, an enhanced telerobotic concept has been suggested by providing augmented virtual fixtures for precise and dexterous manipulation. The proposed technology incorporated a human-robot interface that can assist personnel on the processes of Deactivation and Decommissioning in sites of high radiation. It has been implemented on a dual-arm robot system, known as Baxter, by integrating the Robotic Operating System (ROS) with 3D sensors and visual-haptic operator interface. However, what remained before its practical utilization is the capability for precisely placing the virtual fixtures. To this end, the objectives involved camera calibration, which required hardware fabrication and setup, as well as modification and implementation of ROS. The goal of this Research and Development is to develop an augmented-reality- based operator interface for human-inclusive, intelligent, and autonomous robotic system for the Deactivation and Decommissioning (D and D) of radioactive sites. The objectives are to develop: Collaborative Robot; Multi-modal Mixed-Reality Human-Robot Interface; Intelligent and Autonomous Behaviors. In order to achieve this, Baxter's Head-Kinect camera and Left-Hand camera need to be calibrated to overlap the real environment with the simulated environment. Camera calibration, which is crucial for precisely placing the virtual fixtures, was successful after running the simulations. The real and simulated environments overlapped, permitting the utilization of augmented teleoperation and the dexterous manipulation of Baxter for D and D applications in nuclear sites. Future steps: Performance evaluation of augmented teleoperation of contact manipulation tasks: Multiple-Camera 3D Reconstruction and Automation. Oculus Interface: Augmented reality and machine learning for enhanced telerobotic operation (Augmented Tele-autonomy): Machine-learning techniques for complex and flexible autonomous robotic behaviors. Interactive remote operation of robotic systems. Mesh cutting with simulation and real robot.
