ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
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.

The Future of Nuclear Maritime Propulsion is the second in a series of sessions sponsored by DESD. At the 2023 Winter Meeting we will discuss the potential future of non-naval nuclear propulsion and floating offshore nuclear power generation, the opportunities for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, and the challenges with licensing these vessels for international commerce. Recent Department of Energy grants have spurred interest in this subject. These grants and other opportunities will also be discussed during this session.
