AI-Based Diagnostics and Prognostics Digital Twin to Support Predictive Maintenance of Gas Turbine Engines PhD
To improve the availability and reduce the overhaul and maintenance (O&M) costs of gas turbine propulsion systems, the gas turbine industry is moving from scheduled maintenance to condition-based predictive maintenance. Read more
Ultra-low NOx Hydrogen-Fuelled Gas Turbine Combustion Systems PhD
Current gas turbine engines use hydrocarbon fuels, such as kerosene, diesel and natural gas which inevitably produce CO2 and NOx emissions. Read more
AI-Based Control System Design and Development for Emission Reduction in Gas Turbine Engines PhD
Recently, aviation organizations have set severe targets to reduce emissions in the next generation of air travel systems. Read more
Hot corrosion studies of gas turbine alloy materials PhD
This is a self-funded PhD position to work with Dr Adnan Syed in the Surface Engineering and Precision Centre. The PhD project will focus studying high temperature corrosion mechanisms in details to identify the material degradation and coatings applications details in extreme environments. Read more
Combined Cycle Gas Turbine – CCS; experiment and modelling
This project will combine an experimental and modelling study of a combined cycle gas turbine with CCS. A Turbec T100 gas turbine will be modified to allow the investigation of the effect of exhaust gas recycle and or steam injection on its performance, with measurement of power output and exhaust gas emissions. Read more
Numerical measurements of two-staged gas turbine combustion for hydrogen enrichment of hydrocarbons
Problem. High operating pressures in gas turbine destroys the flame. To investigate the effects of initial temperature, addition of hydrogen and operating pressures above atmospheric in sequential increase up to 32 bar. Read more
Techno-economic investigation of a Syngas – Combined Cycle Gas Turbine – Amine Capture Plant
This project will comprise a process modelling study of syngas production in conjunction with a combined cycle gas turbine with CCS using an amine capture plant. Read more
Modelling gas turbine based power generation system incorporating CCS technology
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is an emerging near-zero emission technology that can applied to next generation gas turbine based power stations, new and retrofit, leading to a substantial reduction in carbon emission to the atmosphere. Read more
Next generation CCS technology for combined cycle gas turbine system
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) from CCGT (combine cycle gas turbine) systems is an emerging near-zero emission technology that can applied to new and retrofit CCGT power plants, leading to a substantial reduction in carbon emission to the atmosphere in power generation industry. Read more
Novel gas turbine configurations for carbon capture
Natural gas will play a significant role in the future energy mix. Natural gas combined cycle (NGCC) power plants produce around half the emissions of advanced coal-fired power plants. Read more
Carbon capture from gas turbines
Natural gas is seen as cleaner than other fossil fuels and will continue to have an essential role in the energy mix of the future, particularly in the UK. Read more
Integration of membranes at PACT for industrial testing with real/synthetic flue gases
A pre-pilot-scale membrane module prototype will be installed for industrial testing at the UKCCSRC PACT) Facilities, integrated with a gas turbine and a solid fuel reactor for coal/biomass to test number of fuels and operating conditions. Read more
Mid-infrared optical amplifiers for chemical species tomography of aero-engine exhaust plumes
Supervisory Team. Professor Johan Nilsson. Project description. Read more
Hydrogen for heat, power and industrial applications
This studentship is concerned with the fundamental research of using hydrogen and ammonia as so-called ‘vectors’ in large industrial energy systems. Read more
