Job Description

The candidate scope of work includes the following main areas of responsibility:

• Perform both steady-state and accident radiological source term evaluations of different event scenarios for high-temperature gas-cooled reactor (HTGRs)

• Participate in the development and validation of computational models and tools used in source term analysis

• Study and model the effects of particulate matter on fission product transport behaviour

• Develop models to evaluate fission product lift-off, plate-out and circulating coolant activities within the primary circuit

• Assist in the analysis of fission product release from kernels and transport through fuel coatings in defective particles for accident scenarios

• Support post-processing and data interpretation to inform safety case development and risk quantification

• Collaborate on the development of an in-house integrated multi-scale source term analysis framework for HTGRs

• Document results and provide technical inputs to related projects and cross-functional teams

• Prepare technical reports and presentations for agencies and industrial partners
