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.

Recovery of hydrogen dissolved in Li-Pb eutectic alloy by mean of a bubbling tower is experimentally investigated. Mass-transfer coefficients to predict tritium recovery rate are experimentally determined when Ar and Ar+H2 gas bubbles are injected into Li-Pb through an I-shaped nozzle under the conditions of temperature 573–773 K and H2 partial pressure of 1 Pa–0.1 MPa. The results are fitted by an analytical equation based on diffusion and solution in Li-Pb. So that, the rate-determining step is hydrogen diffusion through a boundary layer formed in Li-Pb-gas interface and absorption and desorption are found to be almost reversible.
