About the Thermal Fluids Lab

In this lab, you'll gain hands-on experience exploring the fundamental principles of fluid mechanics and heat transfer. This will help translate the fundamental principles learnt in the classroom to practical real-world examples.

You'll learn how to apply fluid mechanics and heat transfer to engineering components. These are relevant to different energy technologies like heat exchangers and wind turbines. 

Alongside this, you’ll gain first-hand experience of measurement devices that can help to quantify types of fluid flows.

The lab gives you access to a range of equipment and learning opportunities: 

  • open wind tunnel
  • fundamentals of wind power plants
  • fundamentals of fluid mechanics
  • fundamentals of heat transfer
  • heat exchangers.
