Assessment of MARMOT: A Mesoscale Fuel Performance Code

MARMOT is the mesoscale fuel performance code under development as part of the US DOE Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation Program. In this report, we provide a high level summary of MARMOT, its capabilities, and its current state of validation. The purpose of MARMOT is to predict the coevolution of microstructure and material properties of nuclear fuel and cladding. It accomplished this using the phase field method coupled to solid mechanics and heat conduction. MARMOT is based on the Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE), and much of its basic capability in the areas of the phase field method, mechanics, and heat conduction come directly from MOOSE modules. However, additional capability specific to fuel and cladding is available in MARMOT. While some validation of MARMOT has been completed in the areas of fission gas behavior and grain growth, much more validation needs to be conducted. However, new mesoscale data needs to be obtained in order to complete this validation.

8th Annual Glycoscience Symposium: Integrating Models of Plant Cell Wall Structure, Biosynthesis and Assembly

The Complex Carbohydrate Research Center (CCRC) of the University of Georgia holds a symposium yearly that highlights a broad range of carbohydrate research topics. The 8th Annual Georgia Glycoscience Symposium entitled “Integrating Models of Plant Cell Wall Structure, Biosynthesis and Assembly” was held on April 7, 2014 at the CCRC. The focus of symposium was on the role of glycans in plant cell wall structure and synthesis. The goal was to have world leaders in conjunction with graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and research scientists to propose the newest plant cell wall models. The symposium program closely followed the DOE’s mission and was specifically designed to highlight chemical and biochemical structures and processes important for the formation and modification of renewable plant cell walls which serve as the basis for biomaterial and biofuels. The symposium was attended by both senior investigators in the field as well as students including a total attendance of 103, which included 80 faculty/research scientists, 11 graduate students and 12 Postdoctoral students.

Behavior of U 3 Si 2 Fuel and FeCrAl Cladding under Normal Operating and Accident Reactor Conditions

As part of the Department of Energy's Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation program, an Accident Tolerant Fuel High Impact Problem was initiated at the beginning of fiscal year 2015 to investigate the behavior of \usi~fuel and iron-chromium-aluminum (FeCrAl) claddings under normal operating and accident reactor conditions. The High Impact Problem was created in response to the United States Department of Energy's renewed interest in accident tolerant materials after the events that occurred at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in 2011. The High Impact Problem is a multinational laboratory and university collaborative research effort between Idaho National Laboratory, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, and the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. This report primarily focuses on the engineering scale research in fiscal year 2016 with brief summaries of the lower length scale developments in the areas of density functional theory, cluster dynamics, rate theory, and phase field being presented.

Organic Speciation and Interactions in ALSEP. One Step Partitioning Process of MinorActinides, Lanthanides, and Fission Products

Research conducted in this project focused on speciation characterization of the ALSEP extraction system (similar to the TALSPEAK-like application) which addresses recovery of minor actinides and lanthanides from PUREX raffinate. The ALSEP (Actinide-Lanthanide Separation) system proposes a trivalent minor actinide/lanthanide group extraction followed by a selective actinide strip to effectively partition minor actinides, lanthanides, and other fission products. The group extraction is achieved by a mixed organic solvent, combining acidic and neutral extracting ligands. The objective of this work is investigation the interactions of the acidic and neutral ligands with each other in the extraction organic solvent and with desired metals. Four combinations of a cation-exchange ligand (either HDEHP or HEH[EHP]) and a neutral solvating ligand (either TODGA or T2EHDGA) in n-dodecane were studied. Interligand dimers in these combinations were investigated with NMR and FTIR, the strongest interaction was observed for HDEHP+TODGA and weakest for T2EHDGA+HEH[EHP]. Complexes of the trivalent Am and lanthanides Nd, Eu, Ho, Pr in these binary ligand mixtures were probed with spectroscopic (UV–vis, time-resolved fluorescence, XAFS and SAXS-spectroscopies) and extraction (Job’s plot, slope analysis) methods; co-extracted water and nitric acid were analyzed by titration methods. Comparison of the collected spectra showed significant shifting for both DGA ligands with HDEHP, while both combinations of HEH[EHP]+DGA displayed much smaller spectral changes. Data were modeled with HypSpec program, and stability constants for extracted complexes were calculated. Aggregation in these systems were studied by SAXS (small-angle X-ray scattering) spectroscopy and interfacial tension, size of aggregates were measured. Two PhD students graduated (2017, 2018) and one student continues her PhD study.

Release 1.0 of MARMOT: A Mesoscale Fuel Performance Code

MARMOT is the mesoscale fuel performance code under development as part of the US DOE Nuclear Energy Advanced Modeling and Simulation Program. With this report, we release a new version of MARMOT, summarize its implemented capabilities, and document the ongoing development of new capabilities planned for the next release. The purpose of MARMOT is to predict the coevolution of microstructure and material properties of nuclear fuel and cladding due to stress, temperature, and irradiation damage. It accomplishes this using the phase field method coupled to solid mechanics and heat conduction. MARMOT is based on the Multiphysics Object-Oriented Simulation Environment (MOOSE), and much of its basic capability in the areas of the phase field method, mechanics, and heat conduction come directly from MOOSE modules.

Dilute and Dispose Cost Estimate for Equipment Installation per the LCCE

As directed in the Consolidation Appropriations Act, 2016, the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) initiated the preconceptual design and development of a Lifecycle Cost Estimate for the Surplus Plutonium Disposition (SPD) Dilute and Dispose Program. Based on August 2016 Program Requirements Document and subsequent supplemental guidance, LANL prepared the Lifecycle Cost Estimate under key assumptions that meet the program’s requirements. For Dilute and Dispose, the program would disposition surplus Pu by diluting oxide produced at LANL with inhibitor materials, packaging the materials in containers, and shipping the containers to a deep geologic repository for permanent disposal. The base assumption is that LANL would disassemble pits, convert the Pu metal to oxide, and characterize and package the material for shipment to SRS, where it would be diluted prior to geologic disposal at the WIPP site in New Mexico. Another major assumption for the Dilute and Dispose option is that LANL would increase the current oxide production rate (or throughput) to 1500 kg/year, 5 times higher than the maximum annual production of ~300 Kgs executed by the ARIES Oxide Production Program at LANL. Analysis based on the ARIES program’s throughput model revealed that 15 pieces of equipment would need to be installed within PF-4 and certain facility improvements would need to be accomplished in order to meet the desired throughput levels. The additional equipment would be essentially identical to equipment already used within PF-4 for existing operations.

Density Tailored Capillary Discharge (Final Technical Report)

This final report describes efforts to validate a novel way to drive capillary discharges in order to achieve true matched guiding of a focused laser beam traveling along the capillary. Achieving such matched guiding is important for laser plasma accelerators, such as ones based upon laser wakefield acceleration. During this Phase II program, a computer model, which was specifically designed to predict the time-dependent behavior of the capillary discharge, was exercised to determine whether unconventional ways to drive the discharge may yield matched guiding. A custom power supply was built to drive the capillary discharge in the unconventional manner specified by the model. Experiments performed at STI Optronics seemed to support the predictions of this model; however, subsequent more accurate measurements performed at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory did not agree with the model predictions.
