Centre for Doctoral Training in Advanced Automotive Propulsion Systems (AAPS)
. The AAPS CDT at the University of Bath is recruiting its sixth cohort to start before May 2025. Read more
Investigation of Ammonia as a Carbon-Free Fuel for Future Internal Combustion Engines
Ammonia has a high potential for fast decarbonization of marine transport as well as heavy-duty (HD) and off-road vehicles. These sectors are also commonly referred to as “hard-to-electrify” because they present specific challenges and operation boundary conditions that strongly hinder electrification. Read more
Rapid internal heating of Lithium-ion batteries
This PhD will explore methods of rapidly heating battery cells to operational temperature, including theoretical analysis and a strong element of experimentation. Read more
Novel foundation strategies for electric road systems
In 2030 to reduce carbon emissions, the UK government plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars followed by a phase out of new diesel trucks with an outright ban in 2040. Read more
Next generation radiators for hydrogen fuel cell powered aircraft
This PhD will comprise low order fluid dynamic, heat transfer and thermodynamic modelling of hydrogen fuel cell propulsion with focus on the thermal management system, in particular the radiator that is required for rejection of heat to atmosphere in liquid cooled systems. Read more
New processes to enable X in the loop simulations for the reduction of vehicle prototypes
X in the loop (XiL) methods are an approach of system simulation whereby part of the system is physical hardware, operating on a test bench and the other part is a simulation running on a computer. Read more
Innovative design of sustainable aeroengines: optimised cooling for the next generation
Safran provides the world’s leading airframers with innovative and reliable propulsion systems. Efforts today focus on decreasing fuel consumption and maintenance costs, while designing more eco-responsible systems. Read more
Micromechanics of solid-state battery degradation
Lithium-ion batteries with solid electrolytes hold great promise for energy storage, offering improved safety and higher energy density. Read more
