Thermal Engineering for Transport: Design, Measurement and Optimisation

Description:

Thermal Engineering for Transport: Design, Measurement and Optimisation is a specialist one-day seminar that will address the latest developments in thermal management across the automotive, aerospace and rail sectors.(NB LowCVP members can register at IMechE member rates.)

With pressure from both government and consumers to make vehicles more efficient, join thought leaders across transport to expand your knowledge of innovative new solutions and approaches. This event will showcase technological advances in heat transfer, energy management, materials engineering and the integration and control of thermal systems within different vehicles.

Learn from experts adapting to the changing requirements of electrified vehicles. Understand how design, simulation and testing are adapting across manufacture and operation for aviation, automobiles and rail. The one day seminar provides a great opportunity to network with technical experts and leaders within industry.
