Development of Hydrogen Burner for FT4000® Aeroderivative Engine - Final Report

This report details an effort to develop a retrofittable fuel/air injector for the FT4000® aeroderivative gas turbine that enables use of hydrogen as a carbon-free fuel for efficient power generation. The FT4000 engine’s low-NOx combustor was developed by Pratt & Whitney and RTX Technology Research Center with core technology from the Pratt & Whitney PW4000 turbofan aircraft engine. The current FT4000 production engine operates on either natural gas or No. 2 fuel oil with water injection to achieve high thermal efficiency and low emissions. This engine is fielded by Mitsubishi Power Aero and delivers 70 MW of power with a simple-cycle efficiency of over 41% when operating with wet compression. The work reported here advances the technology readiness level of the FT4000 combustor for operation with hydrogen, starting with an experimental assessment of the current production hardware with increasing hydrogen content mixed with natural gas and ending with improved nozzle concepts for fully robust operation with 100% hydrogen. High-pressure single-sector combustor rig tests have been completed, demonstrating the ability for the dual fuel nozzle to operate an FT4000 combustor on 100% hydrogen with low nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. Metal temperature measurements and video images of the flame structure from zero to 100% hydrogen highlight opportunities to improve the fuel nozzle robustness for high hydrogen conditions. The design of new fuel/air mixer concepts to improve durability and operability with high hydrogen levels was also completed. A total of eleven new concepts were developed and analyzed, ranging from modifications to the bill-of-materials nozzle to fully clean sheet designs. The concepts were evaluated with non-reacting and reacting flow evaluations to assess the performance of the new hardware designs. Non-reacting tests included Phase Doppler Particle Analysis (PDPA) for droplet size and velocity, mechanical patternation for liquid water flux, and planar laser induced fluorescence (PLIF) with acetone-seeding for gaseous fuel/air mixing characterization. Five scaled candidate fuel nozzle designs, in addition to a scaled bill-of-materials nozzle, were then successfully evaluated in an atmospheric pressure burner rig. The nozzles were evaluated for performance with natural gas, hydrogen/natural gas blends, and pure hydrogen. For 100% hydrogen, the nozzles were evaluated with and without water injection. Optical and infrared imaging of the flame and fuel nozzle was captured. NOx emissions were sampled from fixed emissions probes. The results show measurable differences between the various designs, and the data was used to down-select the two most promising designs to advance to future full pressure rig testing. Results from this study have cleared the current production FT4000 engines with dual fuel nozzles to operate at baseload power on blends of hydrogen mixed with natural gas and water. Two promising nozzle designs have been developed to enable fully robust operation with up to 100% hydrogen. These nozzles require validation at full baseload operating conditions before they can be introduced to the field.

Modeling and Simulation of Fuel Dispersal During the Loss-of-Coolant Accident

This document is the compilation of the milestone portion to a larger end of project NEUP report. The executive summary of the modeling portion is provided below: In the event of cladding rupture during a postulated LOCA in a pressurized water reactor, fuel particles, along with fission gases, can be expelled into the reactor core from the fractured fuel rod, a phenomenon referred to as fuel dispersal. The initial stage of fuel dispersal is strongly influenced by the high-pressure ejection of fuel fragments, the size and geometry of the ruptured cladding, and the depressurization history of the fuel rod during the postulated LOCA transient. Depending on the location of the burst orifice relative to the quench front, the dispersal event represents an intricate three-phase flow and heat transfer phenomenon, where high-temperature fuel particles carried by the fission gases interact with the coolant within the narrow subchannels of the fuel assemblies, inducing localized phase change. Given the unique multiphysics nature of this phenomena, the current study develops a dedicated computational framework to predict the mass distribution and cooling of dispersing fuel particles, facilitating post-accident assessment and management of the fuel assemblies. Considering the scale of nuclear reactor applications, a continuum three-fluid model is proposed for simulating the transport of solids within the reactor core. With high-temperature fuel fragments within the liquid media, nucleation sites inducing phase changes are dispersed within the flow domain. Coupled with the fact that the transient dispersal event occurs on different time scales than other three-phase flow applications, this study derives a time-averaged three-fluid flow model without losing generality. The assumptions regarding the continuum treatment of the solid phase and the modeling of fuel dispersal behavior are incorporated to simplify the governing equations and derive applicable closure relations. The computational validation of the model was conducted using adiabatic experimental results obtained from ongoing research at Oregon State University, focusing on characterizing fuel dispersal behavior during simulated LOCA conditions. Settlement characteristics of the solids, quantified by the probability distribution of equivalent particles, closely matched the probability density functions reported in experimental studies. The transport of fuel particles within a scaled 5 × 5 lattice of a pressurized-water reactor rod bundle geometry was modeled through a two-fluid Eulerian framework. The required boundary conditions were evaluated from the fuel performance code BISON in a postulated large-break LOCA scenario. The modeling framework considered solid fuel particles as granular matter, interacting with the gaseous dry steam phase and fission gases through the governing interfacial momentum exchange between the participating fluids. The simulation results provided the volume fraction of the solids obtained at the bottom surface of the enclosing tank geometry. Postulated LOCA leading to fuel dispersal phenomena involves the strong coupling between fuel thermomechanics, cladding deformation, thermal-hydraulics, and fuel particle transport. Incorporation of such a strong coupling in numerical simulation is performed by coupling the multiphysics solvers. In the case of fuel dispersal, a strong coupled simulation can be performed by coupling the BISON code for fuel performance, the TRACE code for system-level thermal hydraulics, and fuel particle transport in Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE). For such intricate infrastructure, the MOOSE Framework eases the data transfer between codes. The recent version of MOOSE has incorporated the Navier-Stokes module for the fluid flow. An exploratory exercise was done to gain familiarity with finite volume capabilities in the MOOSE framework to incorporate the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) turbulence model. New finite-volume and auxiliary kernels were introduced to assemble the SA transport equation, compute turbulent viscosity, and evaluate wall distance and diagnostic turbulence terms, fully integrated with existing Navier-Stokes modules. A turbulent lid-driven cavity at a Reynolds number of approximately 10,000 is used for verification. MOOSE shows the robust solver convergence and produces the turbulent features. But it underpredicts the velocity profile and turbulent quantities, emphasizing the need to develop improved SA near-wall treatments (e.g., low-Re corrections or wall functions) as a key direction for future work.

Department of Transportation PHMSA Aerosol Spray Project: Phase-0

This report discusses the work conducted at Sandia National Laboratories during the preliminary phase (Phase-0) of the Department of Transportation (DOT) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) project tasked to better understand what happens to a high-pressure liquid canister or vessel during a fire in which an accidental instantaneous release occurs. Phase 0 had two main objects: (1) to establish a methodology for the high temperature and pressure spray vessel release and (2) to characterize the spray droplet formation. For this test series, diagnostic equipment such as the Malvern Spraytec, high-speed photometric cameras, pencil gauges, and thermocouples were used. Additionally, the effect of surface tension on the particle size distribution was evaluated with 1-liter of distilled water and with the same including the addition of 0.5% soap/water mixture. Results from this effort indicated that the plume formed from the instantaneous release in all conditions primarily included two distinct particle size distributions including 217-312µm and 0.53µm on average. Soapy water formed a higher concentration of smaller mist (0.53µm) than distilled water, potentially due to decreased surface tension with the added surfactant. Though results showed good correlation to certain particle size distributions it is encouraged to conduct additional tests like this with a wider range of liquids with different properties, which could affect the overall particle size distribution when released.

Cummins PEM Fuel Cell System for Heavy Duty Applications

The motivation for this project was to develop a high-pressure 100+ kW fuel cell stack that can be used in a modular fashion to power HD applications up to 1 MW. One of the issues that was identified during fuel cell system integration was the need for extra space for heat rejection systems(radiators) as well as additional fans and associated energy consumption to compensate for lower operating temperatures of fuel cells compared to internal combustion (IC) engines. To maximize the heat rejection capability of existing water-based coolant systems that are prevalent on IC engine-based systems, fuel cell stack design was developed to withstand and operate at IC engine coolant temperatures or higher, which in turn helps to reduce the radiator size requirement.

Gas Hydrate Film Growth in Microfluidic Channels for Carbon Dioxide Capture and Sequestration Applications

Gas or clathrate hydrates are a solid, crystalline compound composed of water and guest molecules that typically form at high pressure and low temperature conditions. Carbon dioxide (CO2) hydrates may be involved in several carbon dioxide capture and sequestration (CCS) applications, including CO2 pipeline transportation and CO2 offshore sequestration. Within these applications, the formation mechanism and kinetics must be well understood to manage the CCS processes, either by preventing or promoting hydrate formation. In this work, a high-pressure glass microfluidic reactor is used in tandem with visual microscopy and in-situ Raman spectroscopy to study both the morphological and kinetic behavior of gas hydrate crystals. Subcooling, pressure, and CO2 flow rate are investigated for their impact on the thickening behavior of pure CO2 hydrates, with flow rate being the only parameter to have a significant effect. Visual and Raman spectroscopy evidence show that both a dense hydrate layer and a porous hydrate layer form, and the latter may provide a path for mass transfer to continue hydrate crystallization. A first principles mass transfer model is developed to describe CO2 hydrate crystal thickening at the interface between gas and water. The impacts of gas impurities and channel wettability are also studied. This method is further applied to investigate the conversion of methane hydrate to CO2 hydrate for combined energy recovery and methane hydrate formation.

Reducing the Cost of Fatigue Crack Growth Testing for Storage Vessel Steels in Hydrogen Gas

Hydrogen storage pressure vessels are designed against fatigue crack growth, and the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code requires the fatigue crack growth rate (da/dN) vs. stress-intensity factor range (ΔK) relationship of the construction steel to be measured directly in hydrogen gas. These measurements are notoriously slow and expensive: the cyclic loading frequencies prescribed by standards (often 0.1 Hz) are two or more orders of magnitude below those for conventional fatigue testing, individual tests run for days to weeks, and the high-pressure test-chamber set-up imposes a significant per-specimen labor cost. Due to these time and cost constraints, near-threshold data—the regime most valuable for extending design fatigue life—are rarely generated for ferritic storage vessel steels in hydrogen gas.

A new capability for investigating the structure and dynamics of liquids at high pressures

Water and aqueous solutions are critical to many areas of science and technology. As a result, tremendous effort has been devoted to understanding them in detail. Despite over a century of research, fundamental questions about water and aqueous solutions remain unanswered. However, an intriguing possibility – that liquid water can exist in two thermodynamically distinct states – has emerged as the most likely explanation. The problem is that experimental confirmation of this hypothesis requires experiments on water at high pressures and low temperatures, conditions in which liquid water only exists briefly before turning into crystalline ice. This project investigated the feasibility of developing a new capability for study water and aqueous solutions under these challenging conditions. The physical constraints, such as the timescales for crystallization and thermal diffusion in supercooled water, were evaluated along with their impact on the design criteria for the instrument. Several basic design options were considered that could meet the technical requirements. The options were also evaluated with respect to their use of commercially available equipment versus the need for custom designs or in-house development. The project identified two viable options to pursue. The first option would use a high-pressure syringe pump in conjunction with fused silica (or sapphire) capillaries. The second option would use a diamond anvil cell. These options can both be used with optical spectroscopies, such as Raman or Infrared.

Optimizing ensemble NV − spin properties of fluorescent diamond microparticles by systematic low pressure high temperature annealing

Low pressure high temperature annealing is a means for driving nitrogen and defect diffusion in diamond to reduce internal lattice damage without the need for technically complicated high-pressure cells. Herein, we perform a systematic time (5, 15, and 30 min) and temperature (1200 °C–1800 °C) study of effects of low-pressure high temperature annealing on photoluminescence, spin concentrations, and spin relaxation properties of NV centers in ca. 3 μm synthetic type 1b diamond particles. Annealing in the temperature range of ca. 1400 °C–1700 °C for even 5 min leads to a higher optically detected magnetic resonance contrast as compared to standard annealing at 900 °C for 2 h. Particles annealed at 1700 °C for 5 min exhibit a contrast close to about 13% as compared to about 9% for those annealed at 900 °C for 2 h. A reduction in the zero-field splitting strain parameter from E ≈ 4.5 MHz to ≈ 2.5 MHz and spectral linewidth from Δν ≈ 7 MHz to ≈ 4 MHz are observed even after 5 min annealing at 1700 °C. Improvements in these spectral parameters resulted in a roughly 2-fold reduction in the noise level of temperature monitoring experiment utilizing an ensemble of NV centers in the particles. Annealing in the temperature range of 1600 °C for 15 or 30 min or 1700 °C for 5 min resulted in NV T 1 relaxation times approaching ca. 5 ms typically observed for bulk diamond. Quantitative electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) allowed for estimations of thermal activation energies of paramagnetic center annihilation. Monitoring the primary defect concentration (P1 and other defects with half integer spins) and utilizing second order kinetic modeling, an activation energy of 3.63 ± 0.28 eV was estimated. Alternatively, using the NV half field EPR signal and first order kinetic modeling, a similar activation energy 3.89 ± 0.29 eV was estimated.

A Review of the Research and Development of Brayton Cycle Technology in Nuclear Power Applications with a Focus on Compressor Technology

This study reviews the integration of Brayton Cycle (BC) systems in nuclear power generation, emphasizing their potential to enhance thermal efficiency and operational flexibility over traditional Rankine Cycle (RC) systems. Key working fluids, such as helium (He), supercritical carbon dioxide (sCO 2 ), nitrogen (N 2 ), and air, are evaluated for their performance, efficiency, and compatibility with nuclear systems. He is recognized for its high thermal conductivity and inertness at elevated temperatures, while sCO 2 demonstrates advantages in compactness and efficiency in midrange temperatures. This article also highlights the importance of compressor designs in optimizing BC performance and reviews, available compressor technologies. Axial and centrifugal compressor designs enable efficient gas compression while managing the thermal and mechanical stresses associated with high-pressure operations in nuclear systems. Combined with variable geometry components and advanced materials, these technologies address the challenges posed by varying load conditions. Despite the promising features of BC systems, several challenges persist, including high leakage rates and material degradation under extreme conditions, which necessitate robust sealing technologies and thorough testing. The insights gained from operational experiences at facilities, such as the Oberhausen II plant and the High-Temperature He Test Facility (HHV), underscore the complexities involved in designing high-temperature gas turbines for nuclear applications. This review concludes that as the nuclear industry evolves, BC systems hold significant promise for contributing to a sustainable energy future, particularly in the context of small modular reactors (SMRs) and microreactors. Further exploration of combined cycle configurations that combine BCs with RCs may enhance overall efficiency and flexibility in power generation.

Assessing the Potential Impact of Fugitive Methane Emissions on Offshore Platform Safety

One of the biggest risks to safety on offshore platform safety is the ignition of high-pressure natural gas streams. Currently, the size and number of fugitive emissions on offshore platforms is unknown and methods used to detect fugitives have significant shortcomings. To investigate the frequency, size, and potential impact of fugitives, a data collection exercise was conducted using incidents reported, leak survey data, and independent measurements. The size and number of fugitives on offshore facilities were simulated to investigate likely areas of safety concern. Incident reports indicate in 2021 there were 113 reports of gas leaks on 1119 offshore facilities, suggesting 0.02 fugitives per Type 1 facility (older, shallow-water platforms) and 0.31 fugitives per Type 2 facility (larger deeper-water facilities). Leak survey data report 12 fugitives per Type 1 facility (average emission 0.6 kg CH 4 h −1 leak −1 ) and 15 fugitives per Type 2 facility (average emission 1.5 kg CH 4 h −1 leak −1 ). Reconciliation of direct measurements with a bottom-up model suggests that the number of fugitive emissions generated from the leak report data is an underestimate for Type 1 platforms (44 fugitives facility −1 ; average emission 0.6 kg CH 4 h −1 leak −1 ) and in general agreement for the Type 2 platforms (15 fugitives facility −1 ; average emission 1.5 kg CH 4 h −1 leak −1 ). Analysis of the fugitive emission rates on an offshore platform suggests that gas will not collect to explosive concentration if any air movement is present (>0.36 mph); however, large volumes of air (~600 m 3 ) near representative leaks on the working deck could become explosive in hour-long zero-wind conditions. We suggest that wearable technology could be employed to indicate gas build up, safety regulations amended to consider low-wind conditions and real-world experiments are conducted to test assumptions of air mixing on the working deck.

Demonstration of Sub-Percent Energy Resolution in the NEXT-100 Detector

NEXT-100 is a high-pressure xenon time projection chamber with electroluminescent amplification, designed to operate with up to approximately 70.5 kg at 13.5 bar. It is the most recent detector developed by the NEXT collaboration to search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay ($ββ0ν$) of Xe-136. The NEXT gas TPC technology offers the best energy resolution near the Q-value of the decay ($Q_{ββ}$ = 2458 keV) among xenon detectors, which is set by design to be <1% FWHM. We report here the high-energy calibration of the detector using a Th-228 source, demonstrating linear response and an energy resolution of $(0.90 \pm 0.02)$% FWHM at the Tl-208 photopeak (2615 keV). This performance extrapolates to a resolution at the double-beta decay end-point of $R(Q_{ββ})$ = $(0.93 \pm 0.02)$% FWHM, confirming the detector's capability for precision energy measurement in the search for $ββ0ν$.

Electroluminescence Yield Measurements in Xenon Gas with the NEXT-DEMO++ Detector

The NEXT-DEMO++ detector, a high-pressure xenon gas time projection chamber serving as a prototype for the NEXT-100 experiment, was used to measure the electroluminescence (EL) yield as a function of reduced electric field ($E/p$) across pressures from 2.0 to 9.4 bar, utilizing the 41.5 keV de-excitation peak of $^{83m}$Kr. These measurements were made to examine the pressure dependence of the slope of the reduced EL yield $Y/p$, which has shown inconsistencies in the literature. The reduced yield was fitted with a linear model, revealing a modest ($\sim$5%) change in slope, beginning around 5 bar and increasing with pressure up to 9.4 bar.

Tar Formation and Mitigation in Pressurized Biomass and Cofired Gasification

Biomass gasification with CO2 capture has the potential to provide carbon-negative heat, power, and feedstock for sustainable hydrocarbon fuels. In a pressurized gasifier, precombustion solvent systems can capture CO2 with less energy than needed for amine-based postcombustion CO2 capture, and pressurized syngas is generally more suitable for fuel synthesis. Although precombustion capture has been used for many decades in large-scale fossil-based plants, it has not been well-demonstrated in smaller-scale biomass gasification. Precombustion solvents and product streams could be particularly impacted by tar and other organic compounds that tend to form in high concentrations during low-temperature biomass gasification. A pressurized pilot-scale gasifier was used to examine tar formation and fate when using CO2 capture with various blends of biomass and coal. The syngas was fully conditioned to remove particulate matter; capture sulfur; adjust syngas chemistry using water-gas shift; quench out moisture and condensable organics; and capture CO2. Tar concentrations were measured in the raw syngas, the product gas, and in the liquid streams over the course of several weeks. The gasifier was operated both as a high-pressure oxygen-blown system to mimic large-scale centralized gasification and at lower pressures under air-blown conditions to mimic a more likely small-scale system. A second high-temperature stage with oxidant injection was used to crack tars. The overall results showed how gasifier and CO2 capture performance change as fuel is blended between coal to biomass and what the fate of tar is through a precombustion CO2 capture system.

Compression behavior of lithium fluoride up to 80 GPa and 2300 K

Here, the high-temperature compression behavior of lithium fluoride (LiF) has been determined to ∼80 GPa and 2300 K by means of high-resolution synchrotron-based x-ray diffraction in a laser-heated diamond-anvil cell. The room-temperature Vinet equation of state (EOS) for LiF yields an isothermal room-temperature, ambient-pressure lattice parameter a 0 = 4.028 (±0.003) Å, volume V 0 = 65.35 (±0.03) Å 3 , bulk modulus K 0 = 67.57 (±0.34) GPa, and its pressure derivative K 0 ’ = 4.64 (±0.03). This expanded experimental dataset is in good agreement with the LiF thermal equation of state by Myint et al. (2019) up to ∼2300 K and 25 GPa. At higher pressures and temperatures our data shows reduced thermal expansion compared to the prediction and may be particularly important for experiments at more extreme conditions.

First-principles simulation of a shocked H-He mixture along the principal Hugoniot

Recent laser-shock experiments on an H–He mixture containing 11% helium (atomic fraction) have suggested the presence of an immiscibility region inside Jupiter. Reflectivity measurements were used as the primary diagnostic of H–He demixing, with discontinuities in the optical reflectivity proposed as a signature of phase separation under conditions relevant to Jupiter's interior. Here, we investigate shock-compressed H–He using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations with optical properties evaluated within the Kubo–Greenwood formalism. The equation of state and ionic configurations were obtained using the thermal Tr 2 SCANL meta-GGA exchange–correlation (XC) functional, while optical properties were computed using the recently developed RS-KDT0 range-separated thermal hybrid XC, which provides state-of-the-art accuracy for band-gap predictions in the warm dense matter regime. The calculated reflectivity shows overall good agreement with experimental measurements; however, no discontinuity is observed at elevated temperatures. Moreover, the reflectivity predictions for the mixed system are consistent with the experimental measurements in the temperature range where the mixture is inferred to be demixed. Furthermore, these results suggest that reflectivity alone may not provide a unique or sensitive diagnostic of H–He demixing at low helium concentrations under these conditions.
