description: We consider the numerical simulation of inviscid reactive flows with application to high density explosive detonation. The numerical model is based on the Euler equations and the Mie-Grüneisen equation of state extended to treat chemical energy release and expanded
states. The equations are computed with a Roe-Glaister solver on a Cartesian mesh. We present results for two substances, a binder and an explosive. Our solution method is verified against the exact solution of the shock tube problem for solid materials. We show under
what conditions a "physical" expansion shock can appear in this example. We then address the problem of modeling expanded states, and show results for a two-dimensional shock distraction around a sharp corner. In the last part of the paper, we introduce a detonation
model that extends the Mie-Grüneisen equation of state to enable high explosive simulations without the complexity of mixture equations of state. We conclude with two examples of
corner-turning computations carried out with a pressure-dependent reaction rate law.

Thermal phenomena in lithium-ion batteries
Creators: name: Abbasalinejad, Armin
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2020
Subjects: Lithium ion batteries

description: The use of energy is required to make human life comfortable and energy storage is as critical as energy supply. Among the different systems that can be utilized for the storage of energy, batteries are one of the most common and portable ones. Moreover, there has been a growing demand for lithium-ion Batteries (LIBs) over the last few decades due to their high performance within cycle life, energy and power density. One of the major concerns of LIBs is the safe operations and the prevention of a battery causing fire or explosion, which is known as "thermal runaway". In this study, two different ways to prevent catastrophic thermal runaway will be investigated. One way is to develop a thermoelectrochemical model to predict thermal behavior of a battery. In this case, the investigation of thermodynamic quantities such as entropy change is essential as it is directly related to temperature prediction of the system. In this study, the typical methodologies to measure the entropy change were investigated. It has been shown that side reactions of cells can interfere with obtaining accurate measurement results of entropy changes. Moreover, a physics-based electrochemical model was introduced for the new methodology to measure entropy change which is known as "the frequency-domain method". Differing from the initial frequency domain method, the change of entropy is physically coupled to the internal state changes of batteries. This method reduces the time of the entropy change measurement by scale of 100, in comparison to the traditional methods. Solid-state batteries are another potential solution to preventing thermal runaway as they have excellent thermal stability. In this study, an electrochemical model for the all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries has been developed. For the purpose of maintaining efficient control algorithm development, the model was simplified. A sensitivity analysis was conducted to observe the model accuracy in the simplified models. It was concluded from the simulation results that all the simplified models have sufficient accuracies in the voltage and capacity prediction; and it can serve as a useful tool for the state estimation.

description: Detonation cells are a characteristic feature of detonation shots, and their size is a very valuable experiment parameter to know. To reduce the uncertainty in this variable that is used to being related to manual measuring, a computational processing has been
developed, based on Fourier analysis of digital pictures. The objective is to highlight the relevant frequencies present in the cellular pattern, and thus get the most encountered spatial wave length, which would turn out to be the cell size.

This guide is aimed to provide with the tools, knowledge, and advice needed to compute cell size measurements using the Photoshop procedures and Matlab programs

Combustion within Porous Waste
Creators: name: Pfahl, Ulrich
name: Shepherd, Joseph E.
name: Unal, Cetin
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1998

description: Flammable gases (primarily hydrogen and nitrous oxide but also ammonia and methane) are continuously being generated within the waste contained in the tank farms at Hanford Site.  Some portions of the waste are porous and conceivably, a combustion event could occur within the waste due to accidental ignition.  This has been postulated as a potential hazard since deflagrations and detonations are observed in laboratory experiments to propagate through combustible gases in porous materials, or through interconnected flammable gas voids.  The waste in Hanford storage tanks are mainly in three different forms, a: salt cake, b: sludge, c: supernatant.  Formation of a crust layer on the top of the waste is also observed in some tanks.  The salt cake waste and crust resemble porous materials while sludge and supernatant looks like highly viscous fluids retaining flammable gas as bubbles or inclusions.  Although laboratory experiments showed the possibility of propagation of deflagration or detonation in waste-like porous materials filled by flammable gases, the relevance of this issue to safety evaluations at Hanford is a matter of contention.

In order to clarify this issue, we have reviewed the relevant data on laboratory experiments related to combustion in porous material.  in doing this, we have concentrated on the flame literature rather than the detonation literature, since Makris et al. (1995) have already examined that.  Further, significant mechanisms for the initiation of detonation (i.e., geometries resulting in strong flame acceleration within the dome) have not been identified therefore making flames a much more likely outcome of accidental ignition than detonation.  ignition of flammable waste gases in the waste or the dome space of a tank can occur during intrusive operations into the waste or dome.  External events which are not foreseeable such as lightning can also ignite the flammable gas retained in the waste.  The present report only examines the basic issues in propagation of deflagration or detonation within waste.  The process or probability of combustion ignition and other combustion events such as burns in the dome are not considered.

After our review of the literature, some simple estimates of the potential for flame and detonation propagation are given.  We conclude with a discussion of the uncertainties and measurements required to resolve this issue.

This report is the result of six months stay at the Graduate Aeronautical Laboratories of the California Institute of Technology.  I was offered the possibility to join Caltech as a "Visitor in Aeronautics" during this period.  This stay would not have been possible without the help of several persons and institutions.  First of all I thank my advissor in The Netherlands, Prof. Tijdeman, for his continuing efforts to support me and other students.  He made it possible to interrupt my PhD project at the University of Twente for a stay at Caltech.  The generous support from the department of Applied Mechanics and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering enabled a good quality of life in beautiful sunny (?, El Nino) Southern California.  In this respect  also thank Prof. Huetink and Prof. Grootenboer.

The work at Caltech was both challenging and rewarding. I thank my colleagues at the Explosion Dynamics Group and my advisor, Prof. Shepherd, for creating a very stimulating and pleasant environment both inside and outside the lab.  The work could not have been completed without the help of Raza, Mike and Eric in the Guggenheim sub-basement lab.

This research was sponsored by the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO).  Their support is gratefully acknowledged.

description: Scotland is a small nation, located on the northern half of the island of Great Britain. The territory and historic borders of Scotland have been remarkably stable over time. In recent years, Scottish political life has been consumed by questions of independence, the establishment of an independent Scottish state, or remaining within the United Kingdom. In 2014, a referendum was held on the question of Scottish independence. Although the proposal was rejected by 55% of the population, the issue of Scotland’s constitutional future remains a live one, with far-reaching implications for both Scotland and the UK. Assertions of national identity are important to Scottish political life. Changes have been identified in the way in which people articulate their identities in recent years, with a greater proportion, depending on the question asked, expressing a more explicit Scottish identity. However, this Scottish identity often sits quite comfortably alongside British one (McCrone 2020, 27). On forced choice questions, in which respondents are asked to identify a single identity, we see a decline of British identities in Scotland from the 1970s onwards. When the question was asked in 1979, around 40% of the population opted for a British rather than Scottish identity. This fell below 30% in the years leading up to devolution and currently sits at around 20%.

Detonation Initiation by Annular Jets and Shock Waves
Creators: name: Shepherd, Joseph E.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 2005

description: The objective of this research is to experimentally determine the feasibility of initiating detonation in fuel-air mixtures using only the energy in hot, compressed air.  The existing 6-inch shock tube at Caltech was used to create hot, high-pressure air behind a reflected shock wave.  The hot air created an imploding annular shock wave when it jetted through an annular orifice into a 76-mm-diameter, 1-m-long tube attached to the end of the shock tube.  A special test section with an annular opening covered by a diaphragm is attached to the end wall of the shock tube.  The test section is filled with a combustible gas mixture and initially isolated from the shock tube by both a sliding valve and a very thin diaphragm.  The sliding valve is opened immediately prior to the shock tube operation and the diaphragm is ruptured promptly when the shock wave arrives at the end of the shock tube.  The test tube was filed with either stoichimetric ethylene-oxygen or propane-oxygen diluted with nitrogen.

Piezoelectric pressure transducers and ionization gauges were used to determine the type of combustion event initiated by the annular jet of hot air.  The stagnation conditions in the shock tube and the amount of dilution with nitrogen in the test section were varied to find the critical conditions for the onset of detonation in each test mixture.  Less sensitive (high dilution) mixtures required larger  stagnation pressures in order to initiate a detonation.  We were unable to initiate either ethylene or propane-air mixtures within our facility limits.  Extrapolation of the low-dilution data indicates that very high stagnation pressures (> 16 bar) are required to initiate detonation in fuel-air mixtures.

Understanding performance impact of unaligned writes in solid state disks

Subjects: Solid State Electronics

description: NAND-flash based solid-state disks (SSDs) are replacing the hard-disk drives (HDDs) in various storage systems from high-end servers in data centers to mobile computers. Due to the architectural nature of SSDs, performance-sensitive applications may generate a large number of unaligned writes on SSDs, causing many issues (e.g. chip congestion, sub-request blocking, chip load imbalance, and write space amplification). The proposed design and implementation of Partial Congestion aware LRU Algorithm (PC-LRU) for Write Buffer Management significantly alleviate the side-effects of unaligned writes in solid-state disks. This technique prioritizes the eviction of fully-filled pages over partially-filled pages in write buffers to circumvent write amplification. The advantages of using PC-LRU have been demonstrated by modifying a trace-driven simulator, SSDSim. For the three I/O workloads, PC-LRU reduces the I/O latency by 9.5% on average.

description: Detonation propagation through an interface is being studied at Caltech. In these
experiments, the interface shape is determined by the gravity currents. This report
presents an experimental study of the formation and the development of these
gravity currents by an analog system in a water channel using water and salt water to
simulate the density differences in detonation experiments. The major parameters
such as the Reynolds number and the density difference were matched in both
experiments to be able to compare the gravity current in the water channel and the
gravity current in the Galcit detonation tube. In the present study, the gravity current
was generated by the removal of a plate, and was visualized by adding food dye. The
results confirm previous studies; Keulegan demonstrated in 1957 that the velocity of
the gravity current is a function of the square root of the density difference. The
interface is affect by the retracting of the plate which creates the wake effects. The
Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities on the upstream side of the gravity current create the
visualized mixing zones. Finally, this study revealed how the gravity current interface
into the Galcit detonation tube should develop and where the mixing zones should
occur.
