David L. Osborn

Staff Page • Distinguished Member of Technical Staff, Gas Phase Chemical Physics. Biography David's research focuses on understanding the mechanisms of chemical reactions. To obtain the greatest level of detail, he often studies reactions that occur completely in the gas phase. More recently, he started a program to study the gas phase immediately...

Direct Numerical Simulation

Page • Sandia has developed a massively parallel DNS capability for turbulent reactive flows coupled with detailed chemical reactions and molecular transport. The DNS code, S3D, is used to perform DNS code of fundamental “turbulence-chemistry” interactions in combustion at Sandia and by researchers worldwide, notably at KAUST, U. of New South Wales,...

DNS of Turbulent Combustion

Page • Sandia has developed a massively parallel DNS capability for turbulent reactive flows coupled with detailed chemical reactions and molecular transport. The DNS code, S3D, is used to perform DNS code of fundamental “turbulence-chemistry” interactions in combustion at Sandia and by researchers worldwide, notably at KAUST, U. of New South Wales,...

Dynamics of Molecules in Excited States

Page • When molecules absorb visible or ultraviolet light, they are promoted to an excited state in which the electrons of the molecule occupy different orbitals. This process is critical not only to life on Earth (e.g., photosynthesis), but also to human interactions (e.g., vision). We seek to understand the fundamental details...

Elliot James Fuller

Staff Page • Materials Physics. Biography Elliot Fuller received his Ph.D. in physics from the University of California at Irvine, where he worked under Prof. Phil Collins studying low-dimensional electronic systems including single walled carbon nanotubes. He accepted a postdoctoral fellowship in the Materials Physics department at Sandia National Laboratory in 2015 and...

Energy Transfer Collisions

Page • Image of NO (A, J=7.5) after a collision of two molecular beams, one having NO seeded in He colliding with a beam on NO seeded in Ar. The NO in booth beams is excited into the A electronic state and the j=0 rotational state.  The He in one beam collides...

Engine Combustion

Page • The mission of the Engine Combustion Research group is to develop the science-based understanding needed by industry to design the next generation of advanced internal-combustion engines that use both conventional and alternative fuels. We develop a detailed, pre-competitive understanding of the dominant in-cylinder processes, providing guidance to engine designers who...

Ethan Hecht

Staff Page • Senior Member of Technical Staff, Combustion Research Facility. Biography Ethan S. Hecht is a Senior Member of the Technical Staff at the Combustion Research Facility at Sandia National Laboratories.  He has broad expertise in hydrogen energy systems.  He has led experimental investigations of (high pressure and cryogenic) hydrogen dispersion and...

Exascale Catalytic Chemistry

Page • Sandia is developing pynta, a tool to explore reactions of adsorbates on crystal facets automatically. The goal of the ECC project is to create a computational framework that accelerates discovery and characterization of complex molecular systems. We are targeting gas-phase and coupled heterogeneous/gas-phase reactions and reaction mechanisms with relevance to...
