Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The application of coolants in modern society is far and wide. However the nature of coolants has been largely unchanged during the past 100 years, and most development is largely experimental in nature. With the recent increase in computational power and development of machine learning, this research has focused on the investigation of thermal properties and coolant technology from a simulation and statistical point of view.
