Thermochemical modelling of nuclear reactor materials

该提案建议利用主要研究者艾米丽·科科伦博士的热力学专业知识以及坎杜核反应堆工作组（COG）的资金和支持，以协助和加强对核反应堆材料的理解和开发，同时培养和鼓励有意愿的人才，以支持加拿大核工业的举措。此外，Corcoran博士还与国家（加拿大核实验室，CNL）和国际（法国原子能委员会和能源替代品委员会，CEA）合作伙伴合作，为她的研究计划提供技术人员和重大的无杠杆财政支持。 * 本申请中提出的工作的短期目标是协助核工业正在进行的工作，即COG WP 22236-硅氧烷涂层的鉴定和核燃料国际热力学数据库的开发（先进燃料热力学-国际数据库，TAF-ID）。长期目标是培养高素质的人员（HQP）在加拿大核工业就业，并建立一个知识中心，在热力学核材料，这可以被要求协助行业所需的，作为教授Corcoran的研究计划的一部分。

This proposal recommends that the thermodynamic expertise of the principal investigator, Dr. Emily Corcoran, and the funding and support of CANDU Onwers Group (COG) be leveraged to assist and enhance the understanding and development of nuclear reactor materials while nurturing and encouraging willing talent in support of the Canadian nuclear industry initiatives. Further, Dr. Corcoran is partnered with national (Canadian Nuclear Laboratories, CNL) and international (Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives, CEA in France) collaborators that are providing technical staff and significant unleveraged financial support of her research program. ****The short-term goals of the work proposed in this application are to assist the ongoing work of the nuclear industry, namely, COG WP22236 - Qualification of Siloxane Coatings and the development of an international thermodynamic database for nuclear fuel (Thermodynamics of Advanced Fuels - International Database, TAF-ID). The long-term objective is to train Highly Qualified Personnel (HQP) for employment in the Canadian nuclear industry and to create a centre of knowledge in thermodynamic nuclear materials, which can be called upon to assist the industry as required, as part of Professor Corcoran's research programs.**********
