Jordi Freixa Graduated in Physics by the University of Barcelona in 2001 just before joining the PhD Nuclear Engineering Program at the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC). He finished his PhD on “SBLOCA transients with boron dilution” in 2007. Jordi worked as a post-doc for 4 years at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI, Switzerland) participating in several projects including safety analyses of LOCA and SBLOCA scenarios for the EPR Olkiluoto III nuclear power plant. He continued at PSI as a senior scientist for 2 additional years and lectured at the Nuclear Engineering Master program of the Technical University of Zurich (ETH). Jordi joined ANT in January 2013 under a UPC/PQS contract. His main areas of research are the validation and application of best estimate thermal hydraulic codes
