INL’s Teton supercomputer open for business
Idaho National Laboratory has brought its newest high‑performance supercomputer, named Teton, online and made it available to users through the Department of Energy’s Nuclear Science User Facilities program. The system, now the flagship machine in the lab’s Collaborative Computing Center, quadruples INL’s total computing capacity and enters service as the 85th fastest supercomputer in the world.

A code to model permeation behavior of hydrogen isotopes through bcc Fe was developed by means of a Monte Carlo technique. This code enables correlation of atomic-scale information such as diffusion barrier or adsorption energy with macroscopic quantities such as solubility or permeability. Model parameters were derived from results of ab initio calculations in density function theory. To validate the code, both temperaturedependent permeability and pressure-dependent solubility for hydrogen were evaluated. Simulation results provided reasonable permeability and solubility compared with experimental data, and adequately showed their temperature/pressure dependence.
