What will I learn?
This course provides an in-depth look at uranium isotopes, fission processes, energy outputs, and neutron dynamics, linking them to neutron cycles, reaction cross-sections, and reactor components. Participants will study thermal-hydraulic interactions, reactivity management, core criticality, and safety protocols, acquiring skills to analyse data, evaluate situations, and ensure secure operations in light-water research reactors.

Develop skills
- Model uranium fission by calculating yields, energy release per fission, and decay heat generation.
- Analyse neutron life cycles using the six-factor formula and relevant cross-section data.
- Evaluate reactivity control mechanisms including control rods, feedback effects, and shutdown margins in LWR cores.
- Connect neutronics with thermal-hydraulics to forecast power distribution, temperature profiles, and operational limits.
- Apply sound reactor safety principles to establish operating limits and manage transient events effectively.

Your classes are perfect. I got the one-year package and finally have the chance to follow several topics I'm interested in without having to switch platforms... thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to others...
