Full Job Description
We have funding for a number of 4-year PhDs, in collaboration with industry, on net zero propulsion and power under the following research themes:
- Systems modelling of future net zero flight and energy pathways
- Aero-thermal design of propulsion and power technologies
- Thermodynamic analysis and development of net zero flight and energy cycles
- Data Science and multi-disciplinary modelling and optimization
- Novel propulsors systems and aircraft configuration
- Thermal systems for new propulsion systems and zero carbon fuels (including hydrogen)
- High pressure and high temperature turbine research for ultra-efficient jet engines
- Advanced modelling of particle deposition and ice accretion for next generation, ultra-efficient aviation engines
- Multi-physics approach to studying the complex aerodynamic and thermodynamic processes in future engines with net zero fuels
- Advanced numerical (CFD) and experimental techniques for the study of reacting flows.
Following completion of a taught MRes in Future Propulsion in Power at the University of Cambridge, students will then undertake a PhD at one of the partner universities; Cambridge, Loughborough and Oxford.
