PhD. in Fluid Mechanics, The Faculty of Engineering at Lund University, Sweden
MSc. in Mechanical Engineering, The Faculty of Engineering at Lund University, Sweden
Dr. Per Nilsson has been at Seaborg Technologies in Copenhagen since May 2021, currently as Senior Thermohydraulics Specialist. Seaborg is developing the Compact Molten Salt Reactor (CMSR), a Small Modular Reactor (SMR) which is specifically designed for deployment on barges. Within thermohydraulics, he is involved in design, analysis and simulations of system flow, heat transfer, two-phase and aerosols. The work also includes experiments and tests, in Seaborg facilities as well as with collaborators.
Before joining Seaborg, Per worked at the Target Division of European Spallation Source in Lund as a CFD Specialist for 10 years. Though focused on the thermomechanical analysis and simulations, he was deeply involved in the nuclear licensing of the facility and also managed several experiments. Prior to that, he worked for almost 10 years with TÜV Nord in Sweden, mainly with accredited inspections of thermohydraulic loads in nuclear power plants, but also for example with research. His professional career started as a consultant in nuclear engineering at a small company in 1997.
Per’s education includes an MSc in Mechanical Engineering and a PhD in Fluid Mechanics finished in 2001 with the thesis “A Level-set Flamelet Library Model for Premixed Turbulent Combustion”, both at Lund University.
