De Stad Gent en Universiteit Gent (UGent) verlengen hun samenwerking om wetenschappelijke expertise in te zetten voor de energietransitie van de stad. Gent wordt daarbij een living lab waar oplossingen voor concrete stedelijke uitdagingen in de praktijk worden onderzocht en getest. Sinds 2021 bundelen de Stad Gent en UGent hun expertise rond de uitdaging om Gent fossielvrij te maken tegen 2050. Onderzoekers van EnerGhentIC, het interdisciplinaire netwerk van energieonderzoeke

Modelling of Premixed Dual-Fuel Combustion in Marine Engines You are invited to join the PhD Defense of: Name: Somayeh Parsa Title: Modelling of Premixed Dual-Fuel Combustion in Marine Engines Topic: Hydrogen and methanol offer promising pathways towards cleaner shipping and can be used in dual-fuel marine engines, where diesel initiates combustion. However, their distinct properties create challenges for achieving efficient and stable engine operation. This research develops
