This panel is a follow up to the previous panel hosted at the ATH conference in Anaheim. It will focus on thermal hydraulics related needs, challenges, and opportunities in the deployment of advanced nuclear reactors. Participants from companies receiving awards from the US DOE's recent Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program will share their insights on how the program has impacted their development as well as the general impact on the nuclear field and participate in a discussion on how the state of the art in R&D is being incorporated into their design and licensing process. Panelists will give brief overview presentations, followed by an extended Q&A session.
