Resume:


Technical Interests: BWR Steady State and Transient Analyses, thermal-hydraulics and neutronics codes coupling and models developping.

Current Work:

1. Improvements of the BWR Steady State and Transient Analysis Models in POLCA-T Code
2. Consistent Generation of Neutron Kinetics Data for Coupled Three-Dimensional Neutronics/Thermal-Hydraulics Transient Calculations
3. Validation of coupled 3D core neutron kinetics and system thermal-hydraulics model for the TRAC-BF1/NEM and TRACE/PARCS codes.
4. Coordinating the NEA/OECD and NRC BWR Turbine Trip Benchmark activities, answering the participants' questions and assisting them in developing their models, analysing the submitted solutions in detail and providing reports summarizing the results for each benchmark phases.
