MBRs LCI and LCIA data

This study calculated the cumulative energy and greenhouse gas (GHG) life cycle and cost profiles of transitional aerobic membrane bioreactors (AeMBR) and anaerobic MBRs (AnMBR). Membrane bioreactors (MBR) represent a promising technology for decentralized wastewater treatment and can produce recycled water to displace potable water. Energy recovery is also possible with methane generated from AnMBRs. In this study, scenarios for these technologies were investigated for different scale systems serving various population densities under various climate conditions with multiple methane recovery options. Details of the GHG life cycle and cost profiles for the AeMBR and AnMBR can be found in AeMBR_LCI_Cost_9-9-15.xls and AnMBR_LCI_Cost_9-9-15.xls respectively. Results of the previously described comparisons can be found can be found in MBR_LCIAResults_9-9-15.xlsx.

Supporting data for "Lee, S., Cherry, J., Safoutin, M., Neam, A., McDonald, J., Newman, K.  2018. Modeling and Controls Development of 48 V Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicles. SAE 2018-01-0413" V1

The purpose of this work was to develop a 48 V mild hybrid electric vehicle (MHEV) model for drive cycle simulation using the EPA Advanced Light-Duty Powertrain and Hybrid Analysis tool (ALPHA).  The work included controls development, component and vehicle modeling , and model validation for simulations of a vehicle with a 48 V Belt Integrated Starter Generator (BISG) MHEV system.  An initial model design was also developed for a 48 V inline on-axis P2-configuration MHEV and will be validated as part of future work. Both MHEV configurations were developed into sub-models using a MATLAB/Simulink/Stateflow tool.  The sub-models have subsequently been integrated into EPA’s ALPHA vehicle model.  Initial sub-model development and validation was conducted using the commercially-available Gamma Technology GT-DRIVE vehicle simulation model. The mild hybrid electric vehicle model was validated using vehicle data obtained from Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) chassis dynamometer tests of a 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco 115 V 15 kW BISG mild hybrid electric vehicle. The simulated fuel economy, engine torque/speed, motor torque/speed, engine on-off controls, battery voltage, current, and State of Charge (SOC) were all in good agreement with the vehicle test data on a number of drive schedules. The developed 48 V mild hybrid electric vehicle model can be used to estimate the GHG emissions and fuel economy of 48 V mild hybrid electric vehicles over the EPA regulatory drive cycles and to estimate off-cycle GHG emissions, real-world GHG emissions, and vehicle energy flows. The 48 V mild hybrid electric vehicle model will be further validated with additional 48 V mild hybrid electric vehicle test data in the future as more vehicle models become available. EPA has included 48 V BISG mild hybrid electric vehicle technology in its assessment of CO2-reducing technologies available for compliance with U.S. GHG standards.

Supporting data for "Robertson, D., Conway, G., Chadwell, C., McDonald, J. et al. 2018. Predictive GT-Power Simulation for VNT Matching on a 1.6 L Turbocharged GDI Engine. SAE 2018-01-0161" V1

Low-pressure loop exhaust gas recirculation (LP- EGR) combined with higher compression ratio, is a technology package that has been a focus of research to increase engine thermal efficiency of downsized, turbocharged gasoline direct injection (GDI) engines. Research shows that the addition of LP-EGR reduces the propensity to knock that is experienced at higher compression ratios [1]. To investigate the interaction and compatibility between increased compression ratio and LP-EGR, a 1.6 L Turbocharged GDI engine was modified to run with LP-EGR at a higher compression ratio (12:1 versus 10.5:1) via a piston change. This paper presents the results of the baseline testing on an engine run with a prototype controller and initially tuned to mimic an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) baseline control strategy running on premium fuel (92.8 anti-knock index). This paper then presents test results after first adding LP-EGR to the baseline engine, and then also increasing the compression ratio (CR) using 12:1 pistons. As a last step, the 10.5 CR engine with LP-EGR was run on regular fuel (87.7 anti-knock index) to verify that this configuration could be calibrated to maintain performance like the baseline engine running on premium fuel. To understand the effect of each technology and operating strategy combination on vehicle fuel economy, the various engine maps were compared in EPA’s Advanced Light-Duty Powertrain and Hybrid Analysis (ALPHA) tool over U.S. regulatory drive cycles. This work was done as part of the EPA's continuing assessment of advanced light-duty automotive technologies to support a Midterm Evaluation of Light-duty Vehicle GHG Standards.

Supporting data for "Lee, S.D., Cherry, J., Safoutin, M., McDonald, J. et al. 2018. Modeling and Validation of 48 V Mild Hybrid Lithium-Ion Battery Pack. SAE 2018-01-0433" V1

The purpose of this work was to develop and validate a 48 V lithium-ion battery model for integration into EPA’s ALPHA vehicle simulation model and that can also be used within Gamma Technologies, LLC (Westmont, IL) GT-DRIVE™ vehicle simulations.  These vehicle models allow simulation of energy flows and CO2 emissions for mild hybrid electric vehicles over EPA regulatory drive cycles and during real-world driving.  The battery model is a standard equivalent circuit model with two-time constant resistance-capacitance (RC) blocks. Resistances and capacitances were calculated using test data from an 8 Ah, 0.4 kWh, 48 V (nominal) lithium-ion battery obtained from a Tier 1 automotive supplier, A123 Systems, and developed specifically for 48 V MHEV applications. The A123 Systems battery has 14 pouch-type lithium ion cells arranged in a 14 series and 1 parallel (14S1P) configuration. The RC battery model was validated using battery test data generated by a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) system that simulated the impact of mild hybrid electric vehicle (MHEV) operation on the A123 systems 48 V battery pack over U.S. regulatory drive cycles. The HIL system matched charge and discharge data originally generated by Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) during chassis dynamometer testing of a 2013 Chevy Malibu Eco 115 V MHEV. All validation testing was performed at the Battery Test Facility (BTF) at the U.S. EPA National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory (NVFEL) in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The simulated battery voltages, currents, and state of charge (SOC) of the HIL tests were in good agreement with vehicle test data over a number of different drive cycles and excellent agreement was achieved between RC model simulations of the 48 V battery and HIL battery test data.

Acrolein Inhalation Alters Myocardial Synchrony and Performance at and Below Exposure Concentration that Cause Ventilatory Responses in Mice

we examined the cardiovascular effects acrolein inhalation, particularly on myocardial synchrony and performance via ultrasound echocardiography. Male C57Bl/6J mice (n=6/group) were exposed to filtered air (FA), 0.3 ppm acrolein, or 3.0 ppm acrolein for 3 hours in whole body plethysmography chambers. Cardiac strain data, heart function, and transmitral blood flow were investigated with echocardiography (40 MHz) 1 day prior to exposure, 1 hour after exposure, and 1 day after exposure. During the first 30 minutes of exposure, breathing frequency decreased. tidal volume increased, and expiratory/inspiratory time ratio increased in response to 3.0 ppm acrolein. Elapsed time between peak strain in adjacent wall segments (i.e. myocardial strain delay), a measure of myocardial dyssynchrony, increased significantly in mice exposed to 3.0 ppm acrolein at 1 and 24 hours post-exposure. Mice exposed to 0.3 ppm acrolein did not demonstrate changes in myocardial synchrony but did show decreases in myocardial performance, i.e. increased Tei index, at both 1 and 24 hours post-exposure.
