Thermal Engineering Lab

Thermal Engineering Lab

Features

The objective of the thermal engineering laboratory is to provide the students a good environment to understand some very important concepts and applications of thermal Engineering. Performance and heat balance calculations for thermal equipment are taught in the lab. This laboratory is also actively involved in advanced research in enhanced heat transfer, solar energy, heat pipes and thermoelectric cooling of high heat flux electronic devices. These fundamentals will be useful to students to link the phenomenological processes taking place in the engine for issues of: power generation, emissions and environmental impact, fuel economy and fuel composition effects on engine operation and mechanical limitations of obtaining ideal performance.
