RESEARCH ACTIVITIES - MECHATRONICS FOR THERMAL AND FLOWING SYSTEMS

Simulation studies Designing and constructing mechatronic elements:

on thermodynamic processes (flow, heat and mass transfer, and combustion)

fuel Systems for combustion engines (turbinę engines, spark-ignition and compression-ignition internal combustion engines; traditional and alternative fuels: E85, biodiesel, LPG, CNG, hydrogen) alternative stationary, automotive, and aircraft powertrains (electric, hybrid, and fuel cells) flow based powertrains (turbinę engines, wind turbines)

electronic control Systems (designing and developing algorithms, constructing research Systems, constructing monitoring and measuring devices) reciprocating internal combustion engines (measuring pressure in a combustion chamber, measuring vibration) fuel supply systems in combustion engines electronic control systems

Rapid prototyping: Reverse engineering:

powder and polymer based 3D printing 3D scanning
