Several PhD studentship opportunities are available at the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, for outstanding candidates.
Biofuels have much potential as a low greenhouse-gas replacement to fossil fuels. To realise this potential, internal combustion engines must be optimised for biofuel operation.
Applications are sought for PhD studentships to develop advanced Large Eddy Simulation models for IC engines running biofuels. Topics include:
* knock in ethanol and flex-fuel spark-ignition engines, * autoignition of ethanol stratified-charge compression ignition engines.
Both projects involve collaboration with leading experimental groups, and …
