RESEARCH AREAS
A brief summary of the various areas that we are currently working on are presented here. The research broadly falls under three broad categories: Energy, propulsion and Environment.
ENERGY
Energy is vital to human civilisation. Research is focussed on generation of energy to conservation of energy. Some the research areas are:
Solar Energy
Biofuels & Biogas
Thermal Insulations
​
RESEARCH FACILITIES
Computational infrastructure in terms of Desktops, High performance Workstations (up-to 96 (64+32) cores) are available to cater to the computing needs in addition to basic printing facilities. Computational tools like ANSYS FLUENT, CFX, ICEM CFD, CHEMKIN, OpenFOAM, CANTERA, Lotus Engine Simulation, MATLAB, Elmer, Octave etc are available for simulations.
