ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Thermal Hydraulics
The division provides a forum for focused technical dialogue on thermal hydraulic technology in the nuclear industry. Specifically, this will include heat transfer and fluid mechanics involved in the utilization of nuclear energy. It is intended to attract the highest quality of theoretical and experimental work to ANS, including research on basic phenomena and application to nuclear system design.

A day in the life of the nuclear community
The November issue of Nuclear News is focused on the individuals who make up our nuclear community.
We invited a small group of those individuals to tell us about their day-to-day work in some of the many occupations and applications of nuclear science and technology, and they responded generously. They were ready to tell us about the part they play, together with colleagues and team members, in supplying clean energy, advancing technology, protecting safety and health, and exploring fundamental science.
In these pages, we see a community that can celebrate both those workdays that record progress moving at a steady pace and the exceptional days when a goal is reached, a briefing is delivered, a contract goes through, a discovery is made, or an unforeseen challenge is overcome.
The Nuclear News staff hopes that you enjoy meeting these members of our community—or maybe get reacquainted with friends—through their words and photos.
Educational Session|Panel|Sponsored by Business/Economic Performance
Tuesday, August 11, 2020|3:00–4:30PM (4:00–5:30PM EDT)
Session Organizer:
Tim Schlimpert (MCR)
Knowledge Manager:
Amber Von Ruden (Exelon Corporation)
This session will analyze Capital investment data from the Fukushima response to current investments improving performance and as responses to industry threats. Capital investment trends will be evaluated in terms of industry responses to external and internal challenges. Maria Hernandez, Nuclear Corporate Finance Manager for Duke Energy and Timothy Schlimpert, Vice President, MCR Performance Solutions will complete and present the analyses. Supporting data is collected and provided for analysis by the Electric Utility Cost Group (EUCG); the only organization collecting robust industry cost data. All information is provided blinded to protect the confidentiality of all data contributors. For more on the EUCG visit: www.eucg.org
