Nuclear Mechanical Engineer

As a Systems Engineer for the Research Reactors Division in the Neutron Sciences Directorate at ORNL, Mr. Inabinett is responsible for the safe, reliable, and efficient operation of the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR).  This 85MW reactor is the highest flux reactor-based source of neutrons for research in the United States, and it provides one of the highest steady-state neutron fluxes of any research reactor in the world, enabling world-class capabilities for neutron scattering, isotope production, materials irradiation, neutron activation analysis, and nuclear physics.

Mr. Inabinett came to ORNL in March of 2020 to join the High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR) Systems Engineering group as a Mechanical Engineer. Currently, Mr. Inabinett is assigned to support the HFIR Primary Coolant System, Primary Coolant Cleanup and Pressurization, ISI Program, Hydraulic Rabbit Facility, Pneumatic Tube Facilities, as well as several other systems throughout the HFIR.

Mr. Inabinett holds a M.S. in Nuclear Engineering and B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of South Carolina in Columbia, SC.  Mr. Inabinett became a licensed Professional Engineer in the state of GA in 2018.
