Students that are enrolled in the Energy Engineering curriculum for the academic year 2024/2025 must subscribe to the Engineering Thermofluids (EThF) e-learning website, where all the study material is going to be published.

• EThF website (link), 1st year, 1st semester, enrollment key: 2024ethf

I also teach two optional courses: Technology and Physics of Fusion Energy (TPFE) and Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics (LMM).

• TPFE website (link), 2nd year, 1st semester, enrollment key:
  • Why to enroll: if you are interested in nuclear fusion or like to know something about one of the most interesting engineering challenges of our age, right at the cutting edge of innovation in computational physics, material science, thermal-hydraulics, etc.
• Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics (link), 1st year, 2nd semester, enrollment key: 2025LM
  • Why to enroll: if you are interested in fluid mechanics and want to learn something about numerical methods used to solve problems involving fluids, i.e. computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Electromagnetic fields included in the package.

Lectures can be attended remotely via Zoom:

• Engineering Thermofluids (link)
• TPFE (link)
• Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics

and are usually recorded and distributed through the e-learning website after some time (no later than the scheduled course end).
