Designing the Future of Nuclear Energy with Visualization, Simulation and A.I.
Nuclear Thermal-Hydraulics Analysis using CFD
In order to achieve safer and more innovative nuclear reactor system designs, we are conducting thermal-hydraulic analysis research.
Flow Visualization Experiment
Based on creative ideas, we precisely capture and validate two-dimensional and three-dimensional flow phenomena.
Artificial Intelligence - Enhanced Simulation
To realize cutting-edge future technologies, we are researching the development of deep learning models and data dimensionality reduction techniques.
Welcome to THINK Lab!
We are a research group in the Department of Nuclear Engineering at Hanyang University in Seoul, Korea.
Our group focuses on the design and safety analysis of next-generation nuclear reactors.
We utilize computational fluid dynamics (CFD), flow visualization, 3D printing, and optimization techniques to analyze complex turbulent flows and thermal-hydraulic behavior within reactors, aiming to enhance both performance and safety.

In particular, we integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into traditional CFD to improve prediction accuracy, and validate simulation results with flow visualization experiments using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV).
Our research supports thermal safety assessment and performance prediction for advanced reactor designs, including Small Modular Reactors (SMR).
We also employ AI and deep learning to reduce errors in simulations and build optimized models from experimental data.
