NUCL 5230G - Advanced Nuclear Thermalhydraulics


This course expands on the importance of thermalhdyraulics in nuclear power plant design, operation and safety. Thermalhydraulic problems and solutions relevant to nuclear power plants and nuclear research reactors are discussed. The course discusses in detail mass, momentum and energy equations and explores various numerical techniques for solving these equations, especially for applications to two-phase flow. Boiling, condensation, cavitation and waterhammer problems are discussed. Special topics of recent interest such as impact of ageing phenomena and application of electrohydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic forces are presented.
Credit hours: 3
Prerequisite(s): Undergraduate courses in fluid mechanics and heat transfer.
