This research will investigate the complex flow and heat transfer occurring in gas turbines using advanced computational fluid dynamics, and aiming to improve current design methods and understanding in industry.
Applications are invited for a PhD studentship within the Centre for Aerodynamics at the University of Surrey. Advanced seals such as brush seals offer potential reductions in waste-leakage within the secondary air systems of rotating machines such as gas and steam turbines.

Scotland boasts the world’s first floating wind farm. A floating wind farm has the advantage that offshore wind speeds are typically faster and steadier than on land and it is within easy reach of the densely populated coastal area.
Propulsion, in particular the gas turbine engines are a significantly important theme in the aerospace industry, any enhancement in the performance of these engines will have a great impact on the economics of the aviation sector [Stephens et al, 2007].
