The present report summarises the 6th workshop on Computational Fluid Dynamics for Nuclear Reactor Safety Applications (CFD4NRS-6) in the biennial series, supported by the Nuclear Energy Agency Working Group on the Analysis and Management of Accidents (NEA/WGAMA) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The tradition began in Garching in 2006, and this workshop, held in Cambridge, United States on 13-15 September 2016, followed the format and objectives of its predecessors in creating a forum whereby numerical analysts and experimentalists exchanged information in the application of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to nuclear power plant (NPP) safety and future design issues. The emphasis was to ensure a congenial atmosphere, to offer exposure to state-of-the-art (single-phase and multi-phase) CFD applications reflecting topical issues arising in NPP design and safety and to promote the release of high resolution experimental data to continue the CFD validation process in this application area.
