Come discover the latest weapon in our fight against climate change!Electromagnetic Pumps are a super cool technology that are used in sodium-cooled fast reactors, an advanced type of nuclear reactor gaining more attention as a viable option to fight climate change. The thumbnail for this course is a model of Experimental Breeder Reactor-2, an American-made sodium-cooled research reactor that used EM Pumps! That said, EM Pumps are still under-studied and need lots of attention and further development if they are going to make it into real power plants, and that's where you come in!What engineering disciplines should enroll?Any! My background is in Nuclear Engineering, and I've worked on this technology in industry with Mechanical, Electrical, Chemical, and Materials Engineers from many different schools and years of experience. EM Pumps are an interdisciplinary field that benefit from having many different perspectives influencing the design and operation of the pumps. Generally, if you've taken some classes in Fluid Mechanics, Electromagnetism, or Electrical Circuits, you'll have a strong foundation to build on in this course!How hard is this course?I've designed this course for graduate students and nuclear industry workers seeking an entry point into learning how EM Pump technology works. The lectures are kept casual, professional, and easy to understand as a refresher of basic electromagnetic and fluid mechanics taught at the undergraduate level. The assigned readings provided in this course are from international researchers and go into greater technical detail on modelling approaches, simulation software, and analytical results. Upper-level undergraduates are encouraged to take this course as well to explore EM Pumps as a topic to study for a capstone project or graduate studies.Where's the money in this technology?EM Pump engineers are being called for in many industries that process any fluid that conducts electricity - aluminum manufacturing, marine propulsion with salt water, nuclear fission reactors with sodium or lead coolants, and fusion power plants that use lead as shielding blankets for the reactor walls. American salaries for EM Pump engineers in the Nuclear Energy industry range from $80k/yr to $150k/yr depending on your experience! If you're already in one of these industries and you aren't using EM Pumps.you are going to be thrilled with what you find in this course! And if you are, this course will expose you to different modelling approaches researchers are using to continually improve EM Pump designs.Hope to see you learn with us!Disclaimer: No organizations mentioned in this video series have endorsed the contents of this series, nor does the lecturer claim to speak on official behalf of any organizations mentioned in this series.
