Mechanical Engineering (electrical power engineering) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 24 Mechanical Engineering (electrical power engineering) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

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

Novel topologies and technologies for advanced reluctance machines

Project start date. 01 October 2024. Project duration. 4 years. Studentship funding. Home tuition fees (currently £6,035/year). Maintenance stipend (currently £20,622/year) for 3.5 years. Read more

Future electrical power generation system integration and control

With the projected increase in the contributions from renewable energy to the power generation mix in the foreseeable future, a new control strategy of power generation and supply need to be investigated to mitigate the impact of the uncertainties of renewable power sources. Read more

Stability and efficiency improvement of perovskite solar cells by controlling synthesis and deposition processing parameters

Organic–inorganic hybrid metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have gained extensive research interest in the last decade due to their low-cost fabrication, excellent optoelectronic properties, and rapid increase in power conversion efficiency. Read more

Inspection of nuclear fusion components in high temperature using laser induced ultrasound phase arrays

This PhD project will face the challenges of ultrasonic imaging of nuclear fusion components using lasers to generate and detect ultrasound, remotely and in a series of environmental conditions with respect to temperature for the first time. Read more

Distributed Hybrid Renewable Energy Systems for Energy Transition

These projects are open to students worldwide, but have no funding attached. Therefore, the successful applicant will be expected to fund tuition fees at the relevant level (home or international) and any applicable additional research costs. Read more

Energy Storage Modelling

Supervisory Team.   Prof Andrew Cruden, Prof Richard Wills, Prof Suleiman Sharkh. Project description. Applications are invited for a fully-funded PhD studentship to investigate the electrical, thermal and economic modelling of a range of electrical energy storage types (e.g. Read more

Hybrid Technologies for Battery Thermal Management Using Smart Materials

Electric vehicles (EVs) are powered by lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with many advantages such as high specific energy, long cycle life, wide range of operating temperature, and low self-discharge rates. Read more
