The course  provides an introduction to the basic design\, technology\, and operation of nuclear reactors. It  will also present the major systems in a nuclear  plant\, as well as the important CANDU reactor  safety principles and systems. How to prepare  and execute safety analysis to meet licensing  demands will also be discussed.   \n\n\n\nThe CNS is presenting this course to enhance  the professional and technical capabilities of its  members (and non-members) working in\, or  interested in\, the nuclear industry. The course is  ideally suited for beginning professionals\, but  also beneficial to experienced professionals.  Come broaden your nuclear knowledge beyond  your specific area of work and your own area of  expertise.   \n\n\n\nThis course is eligible for Continuing Education  Units in the context of the Engineering Institute  of Canada Continuing Education program.  \n\n\n\nContinental breakfast\, buffet lunch\, and coffee  breaks are provided each day. There will also be  a banquet on the second evening of the course\,  with an after-dinner speech highlighting a timely  topic in the Canadian Nuclear industry.  \n\n\n\nTentative topics to be covered in the course:  \n\n\n\n\n\n\nCANDU Design \n\n\n\nReactor-Physics Fundamentals\n\n\n\n Fuel Fundamentals\n\n\n\n Thermalhydraulics Fundamentals\n\n\n\n Nuclear Steam Supply System\n\n\n\n Fuel & Fuel-Channel Safety\n\n\n\n Analysis and Trip Coverage \n\n\n\nInstrument and Control\n\n\n\nBalance of Plant\n\n\n\nCANDU Safety Design \n\n\n\nExperiments and Computer Codes\n\n\n\n\n\n\nObjectives of the course\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo provide an introduction to CANDU technology and reactor safety\n\n\n\nTo present safety-analysis principles\n\n\n\nTo provide an overview of the major CANDU systems\n\n\n\nTo foster nuclear safety culture\n\n\n\nTo network with colleagues in the industry\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLecturers\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Ben Rouben\, Fellow of CNS \n\n\n\nClick here to see lecturer’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Wei Shen\, Fellow of CNS \n\n\n\nClick here to see lecturer’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProf. Markus Piro \n\n\n\nClick here to see lecturer’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Yujun Guo \n\n\n\nClick here to see lecturer’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. David Novog \n\n\n\nClick here to see lecturer’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVincent Lau \n\n\n\nClick here to see lecturer’s bio \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJohn P.S Froats\, P.
