      Thermal Hydraulics

      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.

      2022 ANS Annual Meeting preview webinar is coming

      ANS will host its first fully in-person national meeting since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic when the 2022 ANS Annual Meeting takes place in Anaheim, Calif., June 12-16.

      In anticipation of the event, ANS is putting on a webinar titled ”Annual Meeting Preview: Getting back to what we do best.” This hourlong sneak peek is on May 24 at 2:00 p.m. (EDT) and is free and open to everyone. The program will feature organizers who have been planning the many technical sessions for ANS Annual as well as the three embedded topical meetings:

      • Nuclear Criticality Safety Division Topical Meeting (NCSD 2022)
      • Advances in Thermal Hydraulics (ATH 2022)
      • Technology of Fusion Energy (TOFE 2022)

Description

ANS has reproduced the long out-of-print Nuclear Reactor Theory, thanks to the Department of Energy, which holds the book’s copyright. The book explains the most important physical concepts and mathematical methods commonly used in predicting the behavior of neutrons in nuclear reactors. It serves as an excellent introduction to reactor theory for physicists, mathematicians, and engineers and was written by two pioneers in the nuclear field. This seminal work is a must for any student of nuclear theory.

Please note that the electronic version of Nuclear Reactor Theory is available to the public through the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Scientific & Technical Information website: www.osti.gov.
