SUMMARY:GO-VIKING: Lecture Series “Fluid-Structure Interaction for Nuclear Applications”
DESCRIPTION:Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) is essential in many industrial applications and is actively studied in the nuclear sector. Knowledge and understanding of FSI and Fluid-Induced Vibration (FIV) are critical to estimating the lifetime of the different components (pipelines\, heat exchangers\, turbines\, etc.) concerning fatigue\, cracking\, possible failure modes\, and mechanical wear. Recently\, the use of numerical tools to simulate FIV has received large interest due to the availability of more computational resources and the necessity to analyze complex configurations with more details. This Lecture Series aims to provide a detailed background to welcome novices in the field and a comprehensive overview of recent developments of computational FSI in various industrial applications. \n  \nOver the course of four days\, several well-known experts from around the world\, most of them involved in the EU-funded GO-VIKING project\, will explore important topics related to FSI in order to understand and study FIV in different applications. Additionally\, an interactive panel discussion will offer insight into the perspectives of industry leaders on the challenges and solutions related to FIV in nuclear applications. \n  \nThis Lecture Series has been organized in the context of the GO-VIKING project\, which has received funding from the European Union’s Euratom research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 101059603. \n  \nAgenda: VKI Lecture Series\n31 March-03 April 2025\nDay 1 – Monday\, 31/03/25 \n08:30-09:00 Registration \n09:00-09:15 Welcome Address\nVKI Director The von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI)\, Belgium \n09:15-10:45 Introduction to Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI)/Flow-Induced Vibration (FIV)\nProf. Joris Degroote\, University of Ghent\, Belgium \n10:45-11:15 Break \n11:15-12:45 FIV in Nuclear Reactor Components / Facilities Dr Pascal Veber Vattenfall\, Sweden \n12:45-14:00 Lunch \n14:00-15:30 The Importance of Understanding FIV in Nuclear Reactor Components Dr Daniele Vivaldi Institut de Radioprotection et de Sûreté Nucléaire (IRSN)\, France \n15:30-16:00 Break \n16:00-17:30 The View of Industries on FIV in Nuclear Applications\nPaulus Smeekes (TVO\, Finland) Dr Hidajet Hadzic (Framatome GmbH\, Germany) Dr Pascal Veber (Vattenfall\, Sweden) Pierre Moussou (EDF\, France) \n17:30 – 19:00 Reception\, break of the ice \n  \nDay 2 – Tuesday\, 01/04/25 \n09:00-10:30 Analytical Methods for the Evaluation of FIV\nDr Angel Papukchiev Gesellschaft Fuer Anlagen-Und Reaktorsicherheit (GRS)\, Germany \n10:30-11:00 Break \n11:00-12:30 Measurement techniques for FSI/FIV in single-phase flows\nDr Mostafa Nabawy\nUniversity of Manchester\, UK \n12:30-14:00 Lunch \n14:00-15:30 Best practices to investigate single-phase FIV in bundle geometries through laboratory experiments Philippe Planquart The von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics (VKI)\, Belgium \n15:30-16:00 Break \n16:00-17:30 Visit of the GOKSTAD experimental facility \n  \nDay 3 – Wednesday\, 02/04/25 \n09:00-10:30 Computational Methods for single-phase FSI/FIV Dr Sofiane Benhamadouche Électricité de France (EdF)\, France \n10:30-11:00 Break \n11:00-12:30 Best practices to investigate single-phase FIV in bundle geometries by CFD Dr Salim Elbouzidi Canadian Nuclear Lab\, Canada \n12:30-14:00 Lunch \n14:00-15:30 Reduced-order Models for FSI/FIV Ir.

SUMMARY:4th SNETP PROJECT PORTFOLIO WEBINAR – Magic-RR\, GO-VIKING & FIND
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the fourth webinar in the SNETP 2025 Project Portfolio Series on 17 April\, 13:00 – 14:00\, where we will provide updates on three important Euratom-funded projects of our SNETP Portfolio focused on safety and long-term operation. Learn more about: \n\nMagic-RR brings together 11 expert partners from around the world to tackle the challenges of aging reactors\, ensuring their continued safe operation through innovation\, collaboration\, and advanced research.\nGO-VIKING focuses on enhancing the understanding of Flow-Induced Vibrations (FIV) in nuclear fuel assemblies and steam generators\, ultimately improving the safety\, reliability\, and efficiency of nuclear power plants.\nFIND is developing intelligent detection systems for nuclear facilities to enhance operational safety\, reduce maintenance costs\, and minimize worker exposure to radiation. This contributes to the safety of nuclear power plants and other nuclear facilities\, in the context of their long-term operation.\n\nThroughout the webinar\, you’ll have the chance to ask questions and engage with the SNETP community\, exchanging ideas and insights on the future of nuclear energy.

SUMMARY:Powering the Future: Policy & Siting Strategies for New Nuclear
DESCRIPTION:The European Union is committed to providing secure and affordable energy for its competitive industry and all citizens. Nuclear energy\, accounting for almost one quarter of the electricity produced in the EU and representing 50% of the low-carbon electricity\, plays a crucial role in responding to these urgent needs. \nIn recent months\, numerous initiatives have emerged to underscore the pivotal role of nuclear energy in the EU’s decarbonisation efforts. The Nuclear Alliance of the EU Member States has recognised that nuclear could provide up to 150 GW of electricity capacity by 2050 in the EU compared to the approximately 100 GW of today. This will entail significant investments in new-built nuclear reactors. \nWithin this context\, Poland has decided to embark in a significant nuclear investment program in order to operate a paradigm shift and power the country\, its industry and households with a low carbon technology. In order to complete all the necessary steps to build its first nuclear power plant\, including large reactors and SMR and Advanced Modular Reactors\, many issues need to be taken into account. \nThis workshop wishes to focus on the key elements for development and deployment of nuclear\, namely policies and siting. \nThe purpose of the workshop is to engage with all stakeholders that can advance in nuclear development\, including policymakers\, developers\, end users and regions\, communities and municipalities. The first panel will focus on policy measures to support investments in the next generation of nuclear reactors. The second panel will focus on the issue of the siting of new nuclear plants\, covering topics such as the localisation of nuclear plants\, protecting human health and the environment in a community-driven way\, while balancing risk-based economic opportunities. \n  \nAn event co-organised by Nucleareurope in partnership with the Permanent Representation of the Republic of Poland to the EU and the Polish Ministry of Industry.
