Nuclear Energy Group

Transforming energy from atom

The Nuclear engineering laboratories consist of Radiation Measurement Lab, Health Physics Lab, material characterization lab and computational Analysis Lab. The laboratories are equipped to meet the requirements of undergraduates as well as graduate studies and the research work.

The Measurement Lab

This lab contains different equipment to perform experiments related to radiation (Alpha, Beta and Gamma) counting and spectroscopy. Neutron sources are also used in this lab to activate some target samples

The Health Physics Lab

This lab contains complete unit of Thermo-Luminescence Dosimetry (TLD), and necessary Radiation Survey meters and Dosimeters. There are also threes references calibrators; two for gamma and one for beta, used for radiation survey meter calibration and research work.

The material characterization Lab

This lab contains ZEM-3:seebeck coefficients and thermoelectric, X-Ray Fluorescence spectrometer (XRF), Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometer (LIBS) and photometry spectrometer for solid and liquid material analysis.

The Simulation Lab

Includes high performance computational facility for performing nuclear reactor safety analysis, radiation shielding and desalination.
