Organisation profile
Introduction / mission
We develop advanced computational models with experimental validations to drive innovations in energy technologies and chemical engineering.
Organisation profile
The mission of our group is to better understand fluid dynamics and transport phenomena in engineering applications involving multiphase flows and physicochemical conversions. Within this broad area we focus on developing and utilizing advanced computational models for interphase interactions and interfacial transport, and providing experimental validations of these models. Our research is unique in the way model development and experimental validation are combined. Our projects particularly target high-impact application areas pertaining to the Iron Power technology (iron powder as energy carrier), green steel production, and alkaline water electrolysis for hydrogen generation, often in direct collaboration with industrial partners.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. Our work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
-
SDG 7 Affordable and Clean Energy -
SDG 13 Climate Action
