 My name is Holly Kingaulansi. I'm a thermal engineer in the division of spent fuel storage and transportation in the office of nuclear material safety and safeguards. A thermal engineer is a special type of mechanical engineer that focuses energy on the heating and cooling of systems for spent fuel storage cast or package designs and making sure that the regulations are being met. A role of a thermal engineer at the NRC focuses upon reviewing applications or safety analysis reports from applicants trying to obtain a license in storing or transporting spent nuclear fuel or any type of radioactive material and again focusing upon making sure that they're meeting our regulations. We do that by licensing and regulating the use of byproduct spent nuclear fuel and making sure that through reviewing our applications that doesn't cause any unnecessary radiation or dose to the workers, the public, and the environment. In high school you would study your basics, math, and with that would either be algebra, trigonometry, or calculus, science, chemistry, physics, and of course your basic English. But once you get to the college level you study again math, mainly calculus, science, higher levels of chemistry and physics along with fluid mechanics, computational fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics. Thermal engineer skill sets we use in written communications especially when you're making presentations or writing papers to present at conferences. You also use teamwork because it's always a team thing. It's not just by yourself. You also use computer skills, being able to run codes for finite element analysis and things of that nature.
