Idaho State University Students Leading the Way in Molten Sodium Research for Advanced Nuclear Reactors
February 10, 2022
When developing advanced designs for nuclear reactors, maximizing the transfer of heat provided by nuclear fuel is the name of the game. It’s this transfer of heat that leads to generating electricity, and efficiency is a key element. Now, two Idaho State University students are leading the research charge into how molten metal can get the most out of every ounce of fuel.
