Argonne’s METL gears up to test more sodium fast reactor components
Argonne National Laboratory has successfully swapped out an aging cold trap in the sodium test loop called METL (Mechanisms Engineering Test Loop), the Department of Energy announced April 23. The upgrade is the first of its kind in the United States in more than 30 years, according to the DOE, and will help test components and operations for the sodium-cooled fast reactors being developed now.
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.
