Cost Savings Resulting From Classified Component Disposal at the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) - 16440

This paper discusses the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) capability to dispose of both radioactive and non-radioactive classified components and the tremendous cost-avoidance in storage, sanitization and/or demilitarization (Demil), and disposal that have been experienced by generators. One generator, The U.S. Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC), 414. Supply Chain Management Squadron out of Hill Air Force Base (HAFB) experienced total cost-avoidance in the last two years of $218 million on an investment of $1.9 million for disposal at the NNSS. They also accelerated the planned component disposition schedule by 7 years. In 2012, the NNSS added the capability of meeting a key national resource for the safe, secure disposal of classified components that have been declared excess to national security requirements. Since that time the program has continued to grow and expand. (authors)

Pathways towards Valid Data: Assessment of Optimized Packaging Strategies for Core Components - 18158

Every company that runs nuclear power plants needs a strategy for disposal of the radioactive waste and for decommissioning and dismantling of its nuclear reactors. The dismantling progress of several German NPPs is already in an advanced stage. Hence, particularly highly activated core components have to be disposed of as radioactive waste. Nevertheless, this is also an issue during the operating phase due to necessary replacements of highly activated core components such as PWR control elements or RPV heads. The conditioning of waste packages for final disposal in the German repository Konrad requires the core components to be dismantled, packaged and dried. Therefore, a qualified packaging strategy is needed to ensure a reliable compliance with the protection objectives of the repository and an optimized utilization of prescribed contingents. Exemplified by PWR control elements a pathway is drawn how to perform an optimized packaging strategy in compliance with the protection objectives of the repository based on only few relevant radionuclides derived from activation calculations. For these calculations, particularly the influence of trace impurities in the materials has to be considered and their amounts have to be verified or analyzed by sampling. Furthermore, low nuclide activities from contamination cannot simply be neglected because some of them are obliged to be declared or their radiological relevance has not been sufficiently determined. Due to various influence factors, qualified sampling strategies need carefully considered concepts. Therefore, detailed planning facilitates the qualification and approval process and reduces the costs for analyses and the number of containers. (authors)

IS Process Hydrogen Production Test for Components and System Made of Industrial Structural Material - (I) - Bunsen and HI Concentration Section - 18628

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has been conducting research and development on a hydrogen production system as one of the heat applications of High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor. The iodine-sulfur (IS) process is one of the most promising thermochemical methods because of its potential for large-scale CO{sub 2} free hydrogen production. In the IS process, hydrogen is produced through three chemical reactions: Bunsen reaction, hydriodic acid (HI) decomposition and sulfuric acid (H{sub 2}SO{sub 4}) decomposition. High corrosion resistance is required of the component materials in the IS process because the high-temperature strong acids flow in this process. JAEA has fabricated a 30 NL/h - H{sub 2}-scale apparatus made of glass and Teflon which boast corrosion-resistance for the acids, and has succeeded a continuous operation for a week. However, for practical use on a larger scale, the components have to be made of industrial corrosion-resistance materials. As a next step, we have fabricated the new test-facility which can produce H{sub 2} of 100 NL/h-scale for the demonstration of the continuous operation by using the industrial materials. In advance of the continuous operation, we investigated the performance of the components in each section of the IS process. In this presentation, the test results of Bunsen and HI concentration sections will mainly be discussed. (authors)

IS Process Hydrogen Production Test for Components and System Made of Industrial Structural Material (II) - H{sub 2}SO{sub 4} decomposition, HI Distillation, and HI Decomposition Section - 18629

Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has been conducting research and development on the thermochemical iodine sulfur (IS) process for nuclear-powered hydrogen production. The IS process is one of the promising candidates of heat application of High-Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactors. The IS process consists of three chemical reactions: Bunsen reaction, hydriodic acid (HI) decomposition and sulfuric acid (H{sub 2}SO{sub 4}) decomposition. It is necessary for component materials to have high corrosion resistance because high-temperature strong acids such as HI and H{sub 2}SO{sub 4} are used in the IS process. JAEA, so far, achieved to produce hydrogen for one week continuously with a hydrogen production rate of approximately 30 NL/h by a test apparatus made of glass and fluoro-resin material. As a next step toward practical application, we test-fabricated main components, that is, Bunsen reactor, sulfuric acid decomposer, and HI decomposer, made of industrial materials and investigated their integrity in the practical corrosive environments of the IS process. Based on their results, we have constructed a 100 NL/h-H{sub 2}-scale test apparatus made of industrial materials. This test apparatus is divided by chemical reaction and unit operation into five sections: Bunsen section, H{sub 2}SO{sub 4} decomposition section, HI concentration section, HI distillation section, and HI decomposition section. First, we investigated performance of components in each section. This report discusses test results of the H{sub 2}SO{sub 4} decomposition section, HI distillation section, and HI decomposition section. (authors)

Effect of Aging and Demand for Reliability Analysis of Degrading Components

According to the U.S Energy Information Administration (EIA), the U.S fossil fuel share of energy consumption in 2015 was 67%. Furthermore, the Ecotricity UK report based on the CIA World Factbook states that with the current rate of consumption of fossil fuels, petroleum would run out by 2052, natural gas by 2060, and coal by 2088. No fossil fuel will remain by the next century. Besides the limited reserves of fossil fuel, massive consumption of fossil fuel also raises concerns about global warming and pollution. Therefore, there has been a growing interest in reducing fossil fuel consumption in the energy structure and in increasing the proportion of clean energy. Renewable energy (e.g. wind, solar) has the potential for distributed generation. However, the availability for renewable energy fluctuates and is uncontrollable. Therefore, additional energy sources need to be coupled with renewable energy to produce a stable electricity generation profile. Nuclear energy can serve this purpose as it is a clean energy source, has low greenhouse gas emission and possesses high power density and baseload power supply with low fuel cost. It is desirable to develop a hybrid energy system that combines both renewable energy and nuclear energy to meet low carbon emission goals and to utilize renewable energy. Such a nuclear hybrid energy system, consisting of different energy subsystems such as nuclear, solar, and wind, involves frequent switching between different energy subsystems. Since the primary loop in a nuclear power plant generates constant heat, the turbine bypass line in the secondary loop is required to switch frequently to meet the gap in the energy demand and that generated by the renewables. The increased usage of the turbine bypass system is considered to be the major difference between a nuclear hybrid energy system and a traditional nuclear power plant. Reliability analysis for designing such a complex system involves both high level fault propagation analysis at the conceptual design stage and low level failure prediction for specific components. The main focus of this summary to derive a degradation model of hardware components which can later help in the high level fault propagation analysis. The degradation model is a low level failure mode model that combines the effects of natural aging and frequent switching. The model can be used for predicting components' failure due to specific failure modes. The results can serve as indicators for conducting repair actions and maintenance to minimize Operation and Maintenance (O and M) costs. (authors)

Correlation Between Weather Alerts and Grid Component Failures for Grid Alert

Weather events cause most grid failures. Often, we even get notifications on our phones to take cover or be prepared for an imminent event. If electric grid utilities had a similar warning that also included probable scenarios and the equipment involved, they could prepare and minimize the effects. Recent research at Idaho National Laboratory into electric grid risk analysis methods resulted in a tool that allows for the development of the most likely scenarios given failure probabilities of grid components. INL has a project with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (CESER) program to develop a Grid Alert application that receives messages from the existing emergency alert system, filters and determines components possibly affected by the emergency event, calculates probable scenarios uses MASTERRI and then notifies the utility if there is significant risk. Historical failure data of elements that comprise the U.S. electric grid have been compiled by utilities and organizations such as the international regulatory body North American Electric Reliability Corporation (NERC). Nominal failure rates are obtained from this data. To make this tool possible, estimated failure rates are needed for different component types given the alert type, severity, and location. Historic weather-related grid element failures are correlated with historic weather events from Integrated Public Alert & Warning System (IPAWS). These correlated events and failures are used along with Bayesian updates from the historical norms to provide a modified failure rate for grid elements in the alert areas and calculate probable scenarios. This discusses the Grid Alert project plan but focuses on the data gathered and process used in determining failure rates for possible grid failure scenarios.

Physics and Components syntax to enable a systems-based approach to multiphysics

Simulations in MOOSE have traditionally used kernel and boundary condition classes to describe the equations. Downstream applications leveraged a system called Actions to define a pre-packaged discretization of the equations they solve. Unfortunately, the Action base class was very limited, and most applications implemented the same concepts in their Actions. This led to an increased maintenance burden and a reduction in coupling opportunities, save for the use of MultiApps which renders each input mostly independent. With the introduction of multi-system capabilities in MOOSE, there is growing interest in defining entire simulations of complex multiphysics systems in a single input file. By introducing a new Physics system, with its dedicated syntax and a new base class providing wide-ranging capabilities, we are now able to define multiple equations in a single input file in a compact and user-friendly way. With new interactions between Physics and the Component system, these equations can be defined on each component of a complex system. In this talk, we will present the capabilities of these new systems, their interactions, and how to define complex systems multiphysics simulations with Physics and Components.

Progress on the Design Development for Hard Core Components for USDA Diagnostics at ITER

An ITER hard core component (HCC) is defined for each undesirable situation with cliff edge effect consequences. Such structure system components (SCCs) are designed to prevent these situations at nuclear power plants, as well as to return and maintain a safe state in the event such a situation occurs. Only two hard core situations can really lead to cliff edge effect unless HCCs are implemented to limit the consequences: extreme earthquake (SL-3) and multiples fire in tritium building initiated by SL-3. The equipment (window and/or shutter) that closes penetrations from both sides of gallery to outside (Diagnostic building, Tritium building, and Assembly building) are classified as HCCs and SIC-2. Furthermore, design status of the HCC penetrations belong to US ITER diagnostic systems will be presented in this publication.

Determining Multi-Component Phase Diagrams with Desired Characteristics Using Active Learning

Herein, we demonstrate how to predict and experimentally validate phase diagrams for multi-component systems from a high-dimensional virtual space of all possible phase diagrams involving several elements based on small existing experimental data. The experimental data for bulk phases for known systems represents a sampling from this space, and screening the space allows multi-component phase diagrams with given design criteria to be built. This approach uses machine learning methods to predict phase diagrams and Bayesian experimental design to minimize experiments for refinement and validation, all within an active learning loop. The approach is proven by predicting and synthesizing the ferroelectric ceramic system (1-ω)(Ba 0.61 Ca 0.28 Sr 0.11 TiO 3 )-ω(BaTi 0.888 Zr 0.0616 Sn 0.0028 Hf 0.0476 O 3 ) with a relatively high transition temperature and triple point, as well as the NiTi-based pseudo-binary phase diagram (1-ω)(Ti 0.309 Ni 0.485 Hf 0.20 Zr 0.006 )-ω(Ti 0.309 Ni 0.485 Hf 0.07 Zr 0.068 Nb 0.068 ) designed for high transition temperature (ω ≤ 1). Each phase diagram is validated and optimized through only three new experiments. The complexity of these compounds is beyond the reach of today’s computational methods.

Unraveling spectral shapes of adventitious carbon on gold using a time-resolved high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and principal component analysis

To extract chemical information reliably, we propose a new data processing method based both on the creation of information vectors and on a vector base change. The originality of this method is the combination of the different core XPS peaks, Auger and/or valence bands in a single vector. We show that the measurement of a sample upon its progressive chemical change, such as accumulation of the adventitious carbon, allows us to create a new vector basis using linear algebra and Principal Component Analysis. In this work, we demonstrate the application of this method using adventitious carbon films on Au foil utilizing Au 4f, C 1s and O 1s spectral envelopes. This method expands the possibilities of XPS measured chemical environment analysis and is an operator-unbiased solution for materials for which the reference XPS spectra are not available. In this demonstration, the emphasis is placed on identifying changes in a C 1s peak assumed to be adventitious carbon and highlight uncertainties associated with calibrating the binding energy scale using a simple peak model to identify a component C 1s assumed to be saturated hydrocarbon in origin.

Topology optimization of additively manufactured fluidic components free of internal support structures

This report integrates projection-based approaches for implementing overhang constraints with fluid topology optimization to design additively manufactured fluidic components that do not require internal support structures. Internal support structures are challenging, potentially impossible to remove in complex fluid networks, yet would degrade fluidic performance if left within the part. This presents a major challenge in coupling topology optimization with additive manufacturing in the design of fluid components. The proposed approach leverages past work in overhang constraints for solid mechanics, including projection formulations and adjoint sensitivity analysis, and considers incompressible Navier–Stokes equations for laminar fluid flow. The approach is demonstrated on 2D and 3D fluid topology optimization problems to minimize pressure drop and constrain mass flow rates in pipes and manifolds. Resulting designs are crisp, logical, satisfy performance constraints, and satisfy overhang constraints, eliminating the need for internal support structures.

Applications of principal component analysis for energy reconstruction in position-sensitive semiconductor detectors

We report semiconductor detectors with pixelated anodes offer a desirable combination of position sensitivity and energy resolution that are suitable for numerous applications in gamma-ray detection and imaging. Pixelization of electrodes also entails a non-uniform amplitude response as a function of gamma-ray interaction position. Energy calibrations as a function of interaction position improve energy resolution, but systematic errors in the energy reconstruction process persist and limit energy resolution at fixed electronic noise. Digitization of signals induced on collecting and adjacent electrodes offers rich information about gamma-ray interactions and their charge drift and collection as a function of time. Despite the abundance of signals for each interaction, human intuition and rule-based approaches fail to utilize the entire set of observed signals to mitigate the sources of systematic error. In order to maximize the utility of digitized signals and improve energy resolution, principal component analysis is applied towards digitized signals observed in semiconductor detectors with pixelated anodes. Principal components identified in the process form the basis for position-specific energy corrections. By leveraging this additional information encoded within digitized signals, energy resolution improves by factors between 10 and 15% with respect to full-width at half and tenth maximum values. The feature that accounts for the maximum amount of explained variance between interactions in any given pixel correlates strongly with the depth of interaction.

Chemical kinetic interactions of NO with a multi-component gasoline surrogate: Experiments and modeling

Here this work reports an experimental and modeling study on the chemical kinetic interactions of NO with a multi-component gasoline surrogate, namely PACE-20, using a twin-piston rapid compression machine at a stochiometric fuel loading with 20% EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) by mass, pressures of 20 and 40 bar, and temperatures from 700 to 930 K. Five NO concentrations are investigated, namely 0, 20, 50, 70 and 150 ppm, where NO addition effects are characterized through changes in PACE-20 ignition reactivity and heat release characteristics. Experiments indicate that within the low-temperature regime, NO promotes low-temperature heat release rate and main ignition reactivity at low addition levels, with saturation or even inhibiting effects observed at >50 ppm NO addition, while within the NTC/intermediate-temperature regime, adding NO only promotes reactivity. A recently updated, detailed chemical kinetic model with chemistry specific to NOx/hydrocarbons interaction incorporated is used to simulate the experiments, and reasonable agreement is obtained. In-depth sensitivity and rate of production analyses are further performed. The results indicate that NO interacts with PACE-20 via two types of interaction: (a) direct interactions between NO and PACE-20 derivatives, primarily through NO+HO 2 ↔NO 2 +OH and RO 2 +NO↔RO+NO 2 , and (b) indirect interactions between PACE-20 derivatives and NO 2 produced from the direct interactions, primarily through R+NO 2 ↔RO+NO. The observed NO inhibiting effect at low temperatures and 150 ppm NO addition is attributed to the lack of HO 2 radicals to sustain NO consumption via NO+HO 2 ↔NO 2 +OH, and the take-up of inhibiting pathways via RO 2 +NO↔RO+NO 2 . The results also indicate that even with the presence of multiple fuel components, NOx/hydrocarbons interactions are highly selective, and are mainly initiated by the interactions between NO and RO 2 radicals from cyclopentane and ethanol, as well as between NO 2 and R radicals from toluene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene and 1-hexene. Further studies on these interactive reactions are therefore highly recommended.

One-Component, Vinyl-Functional Fluorosilicone Pastes for Direct Ink Write Additive Manufacturing

In this study, one-component (“all-in-one”) fluorosilicone pastes specifically designed for application in direct ink write (DIW) additive manufacturing (AM) have been developed. They consist of vinyl-functional, methyltrifluoropropyl-containing (MeTfpS) terpolysiloxane base polymer(s), hydrosilyl-functional cross-linker(s), UV-sensitive hydrosilylation catalyst, thixotropic additive, and trimethylsilylated fumed silica filler, with other additives that are optional. Their base polymers were completely amorphous and linear, with molecular weights (M n ) ranging from approximately 7000 to 50,000 and specifically targeted for the viscosity range ideal for DIW. These polymers were prepared by anionic ring-opening polymerizations (A-ROP) of appropriate mixtures of cyclic siloxanes initiated by oligomeric, difunctional tetramethylammonium silanolate in the presence of a difunctional tetramethyldivinyldisiloxane end-blocker and molecular weight regulator. Two series of these terpolymers were prepared: one containing 5 mol % MeTfpS repeat units but varying degrees of polymerization (DP) from 80 to 600 and the other containing 5, 10, and 15 mol % MeTfpS at a constant DP of 600. All polymers contained mostly random distributions of MeTfpS repeat units. The pastes were prepared by speed-mixing, ready for use in DIW, they exhibited ideal thixotropy, long-term (over a year) rheological stability, and can be quickly (within seconds) and permanently cured by room-temperature, UV-activated hydrosilylation in air. The resulting elastomers showed base polymer molecular weight- and composition-dependent stress-induced crystallization (SIC) at higher molecular weights and lower trifluoropropyl contents and tunable Shore A hardness (30A–40A) typical for soft polysiloxane rubbers. Preliminary DIW tests indicated excellent printability with high precision of printed shapes and clearly present these one-component pastes as prime candidates for simple and practical printing of silicone elastomer objects.

New proposed ITER divertor design using carbon insert on tungsten to mitigate ELMs and secondary radiation effects on nearby components

Abstract Building a successful device for the magnetic fusion energy production is a great challenge. ITER is an international project of the tokamak based magnetic fusion design being developed for the demonstration of the feasibility of thermonuclear technologies for future realization of successful commercial fusion energy. A key obstacle to a successful magnetic fusion energy production is however, the performance during abnormal events including plasma disruptions and edge-localized modes (ELMs). A credible reactor design must tolerate at least a few of these transient events without serious consequences such as melting of the structure. This paper investigates and compares the performance of the current ITER tokamak design during two types of transient events, i.e., ELMs occurring at normal operation and disruptions during abnormal operation. We simulated the divertor components response using our integrated 3D HEIGHTS package. The simulations include self-consistent modeling of the interaction of the released core plasma particles with the initial solid divertor material, energy deposition processes, vaporization of divertor material, secondary plasma formation and MHD evolution, incident core particles collisions and scattering from this dense secondary plasma, photon radiation of secondary plasma, and the resulting heat loads on nearby components. Our simulations showed that using a small carbon insert around the strike point can significantly reduce the overall expected damage on the tungsten dome structure, reflector plates, and prevent tungsten vaporization and its potential core plasma contamination.

Exact-two-component block-localized wave function: A simple scheme for the automatic computation of relativistic ΔSCF

Block-localized wave function is a useful method for optimizing constrained determinants. In this article, we extend the generalized block-localized wave function technique to relativistic two-component framework. Optimization of excited state determinants for two-component wave functions presents a unique challenge because the excited state manifold is often quite dense with degenerate states. Furthermore, we test the degree to which certain symmetries result naturally from the ΔSCF optimization such as time reversal symmetry and symmetry with respect to the total angular momentum operator on a series of atomic systems. Variational optimizations may often break symmetry in order to lower the overall energy, just as unrestricted Hartree-Fock breaks spin symmetry. Overall, we demonstrate that time reversal symmetry is roughly maintained when using Hartree-Fock, but less so when using Kohn-Sham density functional theory. Additionally, maintaining total angular momentum symmetry appears to be system dependent and not guaranteed. Finally, we were able to trace the breaking of total angular momentum symmetry to the relaxation of core electrons.

Development and Performance of Tungsten-Coated Graphitic Foam for Plasma-Facing Components

High-density graphitic foam is an ideal low-Z plasma-facing material for deuterium-deuterium plasma experiments where tritium codeposition is not an issue. However, like all carbon, graphitic foam suffers from a precipitous drop in thermal conductivity at high temperatures, >600°C. To mitigate these problems, functionally graded layers of tungsten can be deposited to a thickness of 2 to 4 mm onto the plasma side of the foam using chemical vapor deposition. The graphitic foam then acts as a high-conductivity heat sink at temperatures below 600°C for the thin high-Z armor coating. The overall component weighs 18 times less than a comparable volume of tungsten and lacks the coefficient of thermal expansion joining issues between the CuCrZr tubing and the tungsten. This paper discusses the coating development and characterization and presents the results of recent plasma exposures in W7-X. It also reports on computational fluid dynamics heat transfer modeling and preparations for high heat flux testing of mock-ups. This hybrid plasma-facing component (PFC) consisting of innovative engineered materials may be a cost-effective, actively cooled solution for the divertors and other PFCs in long-pulse machines like W7-X and WEST.

In-situ coating of silicon-rich films on tokamak plasma-facing components with real-time Si material injection

Abstract Experiments have been conducted in the DIII-D tokamak to explore the in-situ growth of silicon-rich layers as a potential technique for real-time replenishment of surface coatings on plasma-facing components (PFCs) during steady-state long-pulse reactor operation. Silicon (Si) pellets of 1 mm diameter were injected into low- and high-confinement (L-mode and H-mode) plasma discharges with densities ranging from 3.9– 7.5 × 10 19 m −3 and input powers ranging from 5.5 to 9 MW. The small Si pellets were delivered with the impurity granule injector at frequencies ranging from 4 to 16 Hz corresponding to mass flow rates of 5–19 mg s −1 (1– 4.2 × 10 20 Si s −1 ) at cumulative amounts of up to 34 mg of Si per five-second discharge. Graphite samples were exposed to the scrape-off layer and private flux region plasmas through the divertor material evaluation system to evaluate the Si deposition on the divertor targets. The Si II emission at the sample correlates with silicon injection and suggests net surface Si-deposition in measurable amounts. Post-mortem analysis showed Si-rich coatings containing silicon oxides, of which SiO 2 is the dominant component. No evidence of SiC was found, which is attributed to low divertor surface temperatures. The in-situ and ex-situ analysis found that Si-rich coatings of at least 0.4–1.2 nm thickness have been deposited at 0.4–0.7 nm s −1 . The technique is estimated to coat a surface area of at least 0.94 m 2 on the outer divertor. These results demonstrate the potential of using real-time material injection to form Si-enriched layers on divertor PFCs during reactor operation.
