Dr. Mustafa Hadj-Nacer
Dr. Mustafa Hadj-Nacer is currently a Research Associate Professor and the Associate Director of the Nuclear Packaging Graduate Program (NPGP) in the Mechanical Engineering department at the University of Nevada Reno (UNR). His research is focused on applying and developing experimentally benchmarked computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models for several applications ranging from nuclear packaging to enhanced heat transfer and cooling systems and developing wireless systems for interrogating the internal conditions of spent nuclear fuel canisters.
Dr. Hadj-Nacer joined UNR in 2013 as a post-doctoral research associate, and then a research scientist in 2014, In 2017, he became a Research Assistant Professor and was promoted to a Research Associate Professor in 2022. He received his Ph.D. from Aix-Marseille University, France. His research included gas-surface interaction in micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) and the measurement of the mass flow rate through micro-tubes of different cross-section shapes and materials. Prior, he obtained his M.Sc. from Aix-Marseille University in 2009 and B.Sc. from Polytechnic School of Algeria in 2008.

About the Reno-Sparks-Lake Tahoe Area
About the Reno-Sparks-Lake Tahoe Area
The Reno-Sparks-Lake Tahoe area is famous for its variety of recreational activities, including skiing, hiking, camping, and sightseeing. Reno is about 40 mins to Lake Tahoe, 2 hrs to Sacramento, 3 hrs to Yosemite National Park, and 4 hrs to San Francisco (with fantastic sceneries on the way). The Reno-Tahoe International Airport has direct flights to many major cities in the US. Click to learn more about the fantastic Reno-Tahoe area.
