Department of Energy Under Secretary for Science and Genesis Mission lead Darío Gil participated in a session at the Nvidia GPU Technology Conference on March 17 that coincided with the announcement of the DOE’s $293 million Genesis Mission request for applications, which invites interdisciplinary teams to submit ideas for projects addressing over 20 of Genesis’s stated national challenges, several of which focus on accelerating nuclear research and nuclear energy output.
“We seek breakthrough ideas and novel collaborations leveraging the scientific prowess of our national laboratories, the private sector, universities, and science philanthropies,” said Gil.

A time-dependent equation for the slip velocity in a two-phase flow condition has been incorporated into the RETRAN-02 computer code. This model addition was undertaken to remove a limitation in RETRAN-01 associated with the homogeneous equilibrium mixture model The dynamic slip equation was derived from a set of two-fluid conservation equations. The slip model and the flow-regime-dependent constitutive equations are used in the RETRAN steady-state initialization solution as well as for transient analyses. Comparisons of RETRAN calculations with steady-state and transient data indicate the slip model results in a better analysis of two-phase flow behavior than does the homogeneous equilibrium mixture model
