Contents
The Power, Propulsion and Environment option of the MSc course in Thermal Power is an important element in developing engineers with an environmental awareness.
The gas turbine is employed today in a wide variety of industrial applications including oil, power, and process industries. The continuing expansion of the applications of rotating machinery implies that a multidisciplinary approach to their design and selection - taking into account their techno-economic and environmental impact - is required.
Modules: There are eight compulsory modules:
* Combustors
* Engine Systems
* Environmental Management
* Fuels and Combustion
* Industrial Prime Movers
* Gas Turbine Theory and Performance
* Management for Technology
* Turbomachinery.
Optional modules are chosen from:
* Materials Selection
* Mechanical Design of Turbomachinery
* Piston Engines
* Gas Turbine Applications
* Blade Cooling
* Computational Fluid Dynamics
* Fatigue and Fracture
* Simulation and Diagnostics.
An intensive two-week industrial management module is offered to all MSc students; this module assists in achieving exemptions from some engineering council requirements. The students also benefit from invited lectures from senior engineers and managers in the propulsion and power industries.
Individual research project
Students are required to submit a written thesis for a research project carried out during the course. This thesis is examined orally in September in the presence of an external examiner. Topics can be chosen according to the needs and interests of the individual in consultation with the Course Director.
