Optimisation of impinging jets for reduction of deposit formation

We are excited to offer a fully funded PhD opportunity in Mechanical Engineering at The University of Sheffield for someone with a passion for computational fluid dynamics modelling. 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

Ash Melting Behaviour and Deposition in Oxyfuel Biomass Combustion

The combustion of biomass is proposed as a “carbon neutral” alternative to fossil fuel utilisation and even a “carbon negative” technology when combined with Carbon Capture and Storage technologies such as oxyfuel combustion (Bio-CCS). Read more

Physics-based Multi-scale Modelling of Multi-Material Additive Manufacturing

Project Details. Additive manufacturing (AM) is emerging as a promising alternative for designing multi-material parts for complex geometries in engineering applications; especially in the biomedical sector. Read more

Multi-material metal 3D Printing for compact, lightweight heat exchangers for high power thermal management (Studentship I)

Supervisors. Dr. Luke Parry, Dr. Vitor Marques (Industrial Supervisor). About the Project. The project is to contribute to a major Ministry of Defence (MOD) research programme intended to develop generation after next technologies for applications in defence and security, and this project will be co-funded by Leonardo. Read more

PhD in Manufacturing Routes for Highly Controlled Structured Metamaterial Nanoparticles

This is a challenging and unique PhD opportunity for a student with a good materials, physics and/or engineering background, interested in applying their knowledge to the rapidly growing and multidisciplinary field of metamaterials. Read more

PhD Studentship in Structural Battery Electrodes

Structural batteries, or structural materials that possess the ability to store and deliver electrical energy, could play a pivotal role in decarbonising challenging industries such as aviation, by integrating the power source within, say, the aeroplane fuselage itself. Read more

Fluidised Bed Biomass combustion

To achieve the UK’s ambitious target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050 without compromising energy security, the UK’s conventional power plants must be operated in a flexible manner in terms of high efficiency, using alternative fuels (e.g. Read more

Biomass Combustion

Biomass Combustion is an important renewable form of energy for power generation. Combined heat and power, CHP, is an efficient way of utilising this energy most effectively in units of 30 to 60 MW. Read more

Emissions and ash behaviour during the combustion of torrefied biomass

Torrefaction is a new technique of upgrading the quality of biomass as a fuel for power generation. The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence of the torrefaction on the combustion, pollutant emission and ash deposition of biomass. Read more
