What You’ll Do Day-To-Day
As part of the Fuel Design Engineering organization, an Engineer III on the Mechanical Analysis team performs broad, complex engineering assignments focused on static and dynamic analysis of fuel assemblies. The primary responsibility is to ensure fuel assemblies maintain coolable geometries and rod insertability during both normal and abnormal operating conditions, supporting the integrity of plant operations. This includes conducting analyses such as seismic, LOCA (Loss of Coolant Accident), buckling, component stresses, assembly bow, and flow-induced vibration (FIV) to verify that any design changes or modifications to operating parameters remain within the plant’s established operating basis.
