Systematic experimental study of underlying correlations for evaporation and condensation in heat pipes
Supervisory Team. Prof Yifeng Yang and Dr Wendell Bailey. Fundamental research on the evaporation and condensation processes in heat pipes and closed systems for better understanding and universal dimensionless correlations for different working fluids. Read more
Investigating the ablation of hypersonic re-entry object and its global climate effect
Supervisory Team. Dr Minkwan Kim and Prof Neil Sandham. This PhD project investigates the environmental impact of spacecraft re-entry, focusing on material ablation and its effects on ozone chemistry and Earth’s radiative balance. Read more
Research on flexible heat pump technology
In the UK, heat constitutes about half of energy consumption. The government plans to install 19 million heat pumps in homes over the coming decades to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Read more
Machine learning methods for modelling and optimising CO2 heat pumps
Heat represents nearly half of the world's energy consumption and contributes to almost 40% of energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Read more
Digital twin of heat pumps integrated with thermal energy storage
Electrification of heating supply will have massive impacts on the electricity grid. A highly electrified heating sector may cause large demand transient and peaks/troughs when many heat pumps are switched near-simultaneously, potentially destabilising the operation of networks. Read more
PhD - Performance of deep closed loop geothermal systems in unconventional settings
This is an EPSRC Industrial Cooperative Awards in Science & Engineering (ICASE) training grant, with industrial partner Schlumberger Cambridge Research Limited. Read more
PhD Studentship in Chemical Engineering
The Molecular Systems Engineering group (MSE) in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Imperial College London, in collaboration with Eli Lilly and Company, has a fully-funded PhD studentship available for an October 2025 start. Read more
Resource Recovery from Desalinated Brine through Renewable Energy Powered Thermal-Based Minimal or Zero Liquid Discharge Processes
Desalination is a vital solution for addressing global freshwater scarcity, but it generates large volumes of hypersaline brine, often regarded as waste. Read more
Articular Cartilage: ageing, hydration and energetics
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease afflicting articular joints such as at the hip and knee. Over 200,000 knee and total hip arthroplasty procedures take place yearly in the UK alone. Read more
Nano-scale measurement and manipulation of heat for healthcare
Background. The ability to measure and manipulate heat is fundamental when studying biological processes, chemical reactions and even fundamental physics. Read more
Synthetic fuels for clean aviation
