A review of workforce trends in the nuclear community
The nuclear community is undergoing a moment of unprecedented interest and growth not seen in decades. The passage of the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act and the Inflation Reduction Act are providing a multitude of new funding opportunities for the nuclear community, and not just the current fleet. A mix of technologies and reactor types are being evaluated and deployed, with Vogtle Units 3 and 4 coming on line later this year, the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Projects of X-energy and TerraPower, and NuScale’s work with Utah Associated Municipal Power Systems to build a first-of-a-kind small modular reactor, making this is an exciting time to join the nuclear workforce.
Technical Session|Panel|Sponsored by THD
Thursday, December 2, 2021|3:05–4:50PM EST |Columbia 4
Session Chair:
Igor A. Bolotnov
Session Organizers:
Elia Merzari (Penn State)
Alternate Chair:
Student Assistant:
Charles Goodman
The continuing development of HPC capabilities in recent years opened up many opportunities to address many thermal hydraulic problems in reactor systems using high resolution methodologies. The panelists will discuss the recent advancements in using HPC to simulate the reactor flows using high resolution approaches, such as DNS, LES and interface capturing techniques. Future outlook of a wider range of TH problems that can be tackled in the next decade will be discussed.
