This Special Issue (SI) constitutes a small recognition for the research achievements during a half-a-century activity of B. R. Sehgal, G. Yadigaroglu and G. Hewitt.

Rather than summarizing the content of the SI, the present paper aims at identifying (a few lines in each case) the main message from each paper in order to create a chain among several topics which constitute NTH.

Abstract

This Special Issue (SI) constitutes a small recognition for the research achievements during a half-a-century activity of B. R. Sehgal, G. Yadigaroglu and G. Hewitt. Around forty papers have been collected in the area of Nuclear Thermal-Hydraulics (NTH) to honor the memory of those scientists. Namely, the SI is sub-divided into three parts: the first one (which includes the present paper) provides introductory remarks and (SI) planning information; the second one celebrates the life and the scientific achievements of the three eminent researchers; the third part consists of a collection of technical papers representative of nowadays investigations in nuclear thermal-hydraulics. Rather than summarizing the content of the SI, the present paper aims at identifying (a few lines in each case) the main message from each paper in order to create a chain among several topics which constitute NTH. The summary can be useful for more thorough discussion (i.e. more systematic and more comprehensive than what done within the framework of the present SI) among specialists about what is now NTH and how to identify substantial improvement ways-out.
