Research day 19 May 2011

On this day, the groups working on power generation, fuel use and production and renewable energy presented themselves. In the morning, an overview was given by the research leaders. in the afternoon, more specific talks were given by PhD students.

The day ended with a laboratory tour at Thermal Mechanical Engineering, and drinks.

Below are the various presentations made on the day.
