Time：9：00 to 10：00, Apr 6,2017
Biography：
Dr. Shanbin Shi is a research fellow in the Nuclear Engineering Program at the University of Michigan. He received his B.S. and M.S. degree in Thermal Engineering from Southeast University and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, respectively; and Ph.D. degree in Nuclear Engineering from Purdue University. Dr. Shi’s research interest areas include reactor thermal-hydraulics and safety analysis, two-phase flow experimentation and modeling, small modular reactor design, and thermal-hydraulics for advanced nuclear reactors. Dr. Shi has completed many separate- and integral-effect tests that involved scaling analysis, test facility design, instrumentation development, and uncertainty quantification. He led the design and safety analysis of a passive small modular boiling water reactor, namely NMR-50, and the investigation of the startup procedures to eliminate potential flow instabilities during the initial startup transients in a full-height scale natural circulation test facility.
