7. Fully Funded PhD in Numerical Study of Hydrogen Combustion in Heavy Duty Engines
Summary of Funded PhD Program
New energy technologies are vital in decarbonising heavy goods vehicles. Hydrogen is a carbon free fuel that helps with net-zero transition but hydrogen faces several challenges in the field of combustion due to its auto-ignition characteristics. This project aims at developing mechanisms to understand hydrogen combustion that will account explicitly for the chemical and residual gas effects under a wide range of pressures and temperatures. Software such as CHEMKIN, CONVERGE, FOAM and in-house developed MATLAB codes will be used in this research to understand Hydrogen combustion in Heavy Duty Engines.
