Idaho National Laboratory is seeking an undergraduate junior/senior or graduate student to support various aspects of reactor experiment related tasks including: design thermal analysis data reduction and supplier identification. Reactor experiments consist of small metal capsules that are filled with specimen materials of interest which are then placed in INLs Advanced Test Reactor. The purpose of the tests is to evaluate the performance of structural and fuel materials after having been bombarded with neutrons over a period of several months or more. The design of a new reactor experiment typically involves creating mockups to evaluate various assembly options and sensor installation techniques. A new experiment is under development in 2023 and so the intern will have an opportunity to be involved with at least one experiment mockup assembly. The intern is expected to have strong oral and written communication skills; as well as mechanical engineering skills in areas such as heat transfer materials and machine design.
