  • Nov 2014 - Nov 2019

  The research “Numerical Study on Oscillatory Fire Behaviour in Confined and Mechanically-Ventilated Enclosures “ studies the fire evolution in compartments similar to the rooms found in Nuclear Power Plants was study. Numerical simulations of the coupling between the evaporation rate of the fuel and the ventilation system were performed. Two types of numerical tools were used: 1) Computational Fluid Dynamics (i.e., ANSYS Fluent, FDS and ISIS CFD) and 2) in-house 0D code developed using C++.

  The project ‘Sensitivity analysis for the thermal radiation model in a large pool fire scenario’ focuseson Turbulence (URANS, SAS and LES), Thermal Radiation and Combustion models in large pool fire scenario, as fuel storage tanks. Computational Fluid Dynamis was used extensively. All the simulation steps were covered: Grid generation, simulations and post-processing. The used software were Gambit, ANSYS Fluent 14 and Fieldview.

• MSc Nuclear Engineering internship

  • Apr 2011 - Jul 2011

  The topic ‘Application of advanced techniques to advanced probabilistic safety analysis in the quantitative verification of the emergency operating procedures in PWR or BWR reactors’ was studied. The human failure during the loss of feedwater severe accident in a PWR reactor was analyzed based on the Probabilistic Safety Assessment (PSA). The core damage probability was related with the reaction time of the operators. The reactor behavior was modeled by the MAAP4 software.
