The steam and water are very important fluids used in various industries like nuclear, chemical, automotive, power generation, HVAC etc. they are cheap, non-hazardous and
readily available fluids. The interaction between water and steam is an important process and may lead to certain complications like Condensation Induced Water Hammering
(CIWH). This group works on the interaction of steam with water in various scenarios like injection of steam in subcooled water tank, injection of steam in a restricted
geometry like a pipe, injection of subcooled water in a pipe filled with steam etc. The group works on both the experimental as well as computational fronts to study these
different cases of steam-water interaction.

Programs
PhD Nuclear Engineering
Since1988
PhD in nuclear engineering includes course work, qualifying exams and an original research work on a topic of choice in nuclear engineering. PhD thesis requires an international review and publications in reputed journals. At present various PhD scholars are conducting their doctoral level research in various fields of nuclear engineering in the department.
PhD Radiation Physics
Since2014
PhD in radiation physics includes course work, qualifying exams and an original research work on a topic of choice in radiation physics. PhD thesis requires an international review and publications in reputed journals. At present various PhD scholars are conducting their doctoral level research in various fields of radiation physics in the department.
This program is by far the oldest at PIEAS. More than 1300 engineers and scientists have graduated under this program over the past four decades and today they form the backbone of various projects of the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission and other strategic organizations. The participants of this program are taken from almost all the engineering and scientific disciplines. This diversity is just one of the imperatives of the multi-disciplinary nature of nuclear engineering itself. It has always been a stimulating challenge for the faculty to guide a group of people with different backgrounds towards the unified goal of understanding the complex systems and processes involved in nuclear technology.
The MS Radiation Physics program was launched in 2014 to meet the requirements of PAEC for expansion of Nuclear Power Program along with allied Nuclear Fuel Cycle Facilities. The program aims at development of graduate students in the area of Radiological Protection, Environmental Dispersion, NPPs impact Monitoring & Dosimetry, Radioactive Waste Management, Nuclear Emergency Handling, NPPs Site Selection, Reliability & Risk Assessment and Nuclear Safety Analysis.
Department is equipped with advanced laboratories including Health Physics Lab., Radiation Shielding Lab., Radiation Interaction and Detection Lab., Environmental Monitoring Lab., Advanced Computational Reactor Engineering Lab., PWR Simulation Lab., and Hazardous Air Pollutants Lab. The degree is offered to the students having 2-year M.Sc. Physics degree or a 4-year B.S. Physics degree.
