Techno-economic assessment of large scale liquefied hydrogen production and shipping
Global hydrogen production is over 55 million tonnes per year and the majority of this is produced and used within industrial sites as captive hydrogen or as industry feedstock. Read more
Techno-economic optimisation of the CO2 value chain
The utilisation of CO2 within the Power-to-X (PtX) concept can produce value added products, such as fuels and chemicals that can substitute fossil value chains and has the potential to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Read more
Damage characterisation and root cause analysis of wind turbine pitch bearings
Blade pitch bearings of large scale wind turbines control the individual blades in order to maximise power generation at low wind speeds and to prevent turbine damages under high winds. Read more
Investigation of white etching crack damage mechanism in wind turbine gearbox bearings
Modern wind turbine gearbox bearings are failing prematurely, by white structure flaking and axial cracking, which may be caused by the propagation of subsurface white etching cracks (WECs). Read more
Adjoint based optimization of vertical axis wind turbines
Recently vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have been more installed in urban areas than before. They are known to perform better in urban regions compared to horizontal axis wind turbines as they do not require alignment to the oncoming flow. Read more
Computational analysis of the flow through aerofoil cascades
One of the major global concerns is the environmental pollution from the burning of fossil fuels, and there is a growing awareness of the impact of emission from the shipping industry using fossil fuel as a power source. Read more
Advanced Wind Turbine Control Systems
Wind turbine control is necessary to ensure low maintenance costs and efficient performance. The control system also guarantees safe operation, optimizes power output, and ensures long structural life. Read more
Advanced Wind Turbine Technology for Urban Environments
Wind is one of the main renewable energy sources in the world and wind turbines are the main technology that converts wind energy to electricity. Read more
Aerodynamic optimization of wind farms
Wind farms, as a main technology to convert wind energy into electricity faces challenges in improving its efficiency and reducing costs. Read more
CFD Study of Wind Turbine Aerodynamics
Wind turbine is the main technology that converts wind energy to electricity. The interaction between air flow and the turbine blade are critical to the structure integrity and noise generation of the turbine. Read more
Numerical evaluation of wind around buildings
Computational Wind Engineering has been developed rapidly over the last decades. 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
Techno-Economic Study of Power generation from Coal/Biomass with Carbon Capture and Storage
Demand for energy supply in the present global environment is continuously increasing with the growth of population and economic development. Read more
A Societal Index Model for the Assessment of the Safety, Operability and Resilience level of Regional Mini Energy Grid
The project is aimed at developing an open expert system for the end user and also for the developer to carry out the risk analysis involved in systems utilizing upcoming new energy technologies. Read more
Process Optimization of Liquid Fuel Synthesis From Renewable Energy Sources
Demand for energy supply in the present global environment is continuously increasing with the growth of population and economic development. Read more
