Fluid Mechanics (research management) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 13 Fluid Mechanics (research management) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Ignition and fire spread processes in the Wildland Urban Interface

This PhD project in fire science interlinks prevention and protection from wildfire risk, by focusing on providing a clearer understanding of uncontrolled fires and the conditions that cause them to arise in the wildland urban interface. Read more

Pathogen Aerosolization and Detection in Building Wastewater System Fluid Dynamics

  Research Group: Institute of Sustainable Built Environment
The development of high-rise buildings is now at an unprecedented rate, with their number and scale rapidly and dramatically changing the landscape of global cities. The creation of these complex vertical communities poses major operational challenges for the systems relied upon for occupant safety and the responsible management of wastewater resources.

Water lubricated compressor bearings

Supervisory Team:  Robert Wood, Julian Wharton and Ahmed Kovacevic (City, Uni of London). Project description. Compressors consume energy, but their use in mechanical vapour recompression (MVR) and heat pumps will continue to play an important role that contributes towards Carbon Neutrality in society. Read more

Innovations in Waste Energy Minimisation from Maritime Engineering Power and Propulsion Systems

Supervisory Team.   Prof Alan J Murphy & Prof Dominic Hudson. Project description. Although maritime transport is one of the most energy efficient, the cumulative carbon footprint from global shipping is equivalent a large industrialised nation (~3% of global total). Read more

Electronically Controlled Adaptive AM Heat Exchanger (eHEX)

Electronically Controlled Adaptive AM Heat Exchanger (eHEX). The Postgraduate Research Programme Innovation in Digital Manufacturing and Design (IDMD) offers 12 PhD research scholarships in 12 separate projects to commence in 2024. Read more

Efficient Cryostasis for Transport of Liquid Hydrogen

Supervisory Team: Edward Richardson; Stephen Turnock. Project description. Liquid hydrogen (LH2) storage and transport enables flexible exploitation of potentially carbon-free energy. Read more

Convective heat-transfer in turbulent boundary layers

Supervisory Team.   Bharathram Ganapathisubramani and Sean Symon. Project description. The electrification of aircraft as an enabler for achieving our Net-Zero ambitions has been increasingly studied in recent years. Read more

Drop Impacts on Microstructured Surfaces

How can we control droplets as they land on surfaces, roll over, or spread across surfaces? Understanding and management of droplet dynamics are of critical and increasing importance due to their relevance in areas such as climate physics, disease transmission, food production, and heat transfer technologies.
