In the past few years, reactor thermal-hydraulic (T-H) study has advanced with the support of machine learning (ML) in many aspects, including automated experimental data analysis, data-driven modeling, and uncertainty quantification. ML also showed promising potential to expand reactor T-H to a wider range of applications to better support advanced reactor deployment, such as digital twin. On the other hand, ML in T-H study has its unique challenges, from data availability and quality, model transparency and interpretability, to licensing readiness. In this panel session, experts from different institutes with a diverse background will share their experience and perspectives on ML for T-H study, including recent progresses, existing challenges and potential solutions, and future opportunities.
