Areas of Research Interests/ Research Projects
Dr. Liu’s research interests are in the areas of advanced nuclear fuel design,
fabrication and evaluation (Before and after irradiation), especially the
fluidized bed- chemical vapor deposition technology of coated fuel particles, in
the spherical fuel element of HTGR. Now the fuel of next generation nuclear
reactor, such as Accident Tolerant Fuel, fuel element of Very High Temperature
Reactor, Small Reactor, Space Reactor, are focused on. Also, the simulation
technology of nuclear fuel materials properties, fabrication process and
performance were investigated as part of his academic research, such as
CFD-DEM-PBM coupling method and so on.
