1. Goals This course deals with the advanced techniques of the thermal-hydraulic analysis,
such as computational fluid dynamics for the two-phase flow. Basic knowledge for
the nuclear safety is required to take this course. The followings are included;
numerical methods for single- and two- phase flows and constitutive relations for
two-phase flows anlaysis.
