American Centrifuge Operating, a subsidiary of Centrus Energy Corp., has formed a multiyear strategic collaboration with Fluor Corporation in which Fluor will serve as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor for Centrus’s expansion of its uranium enrichment facility in Piketon, Ohio. Fluor will lead the engineering and design aspects of the American Centrifuge Plant’s expansion, manage the supply chain and procurement of key materials and services, oversee construction at the site, and support the commissioning of new capacity.
20th International Topical Meeting on Nuclear Reactor Thermal Hydraulics (NURETH-20)
Dr. Annalisa Manera is a Professor of Nuclear Safety and Multiphase Flows at the ETHZurich, and currently on a leave of absence from the University of Michigan, where she has been a Professor in the Nuclear Engineering Department since 2011. Prior to her appointment at the University of Michigan, she was the Head of the Group of “Nuclear Systems Behavior” in the Laboratory of Reactor Physics at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI, Switzerland). She is the co-director of the Experimental and Computational Multiphase Flow Laboratory (ECMF) and the High Resolution Imaging Lab. Her research group focuses on the development and application of high-resolution experimental techniques and on the development of high-fidelity multiphysics, multi-scale computational tools for nuclear systems. She holds a M.Sc. in Nuclear Engineering (110/110 cum laude) from the University of Pisa and a Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from the Delft University of Technology.
