DOE announces awards for three university nuclear education outreach programs
The Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy has announced more than $590,000 in funding awards to help three universities enhance their outreach in nuclear energy education. The awards, which are part of the DOE Nuclear Energy University Program (NEUP) University Reactor Sharing and Outreach Program, are primarily designed to provide students in K-12, vocational schools, and colleges with access to university research reactors in order to increase awareness of nuclear science, engineering, and technology and to foster early interest in nuclear energy-related careers.

A one-dimensional simulation code has been developed for theoretical investigation on radial transport in the Hanbit-device discharges. The radial transport equations of ions, electrons, and neutrals are solved under given power density profile. It is found that the plasma density profile is strongly dependent on the absorbed power density profile of electrons and the temperature profiles are closely related to the neutral density profile.
