The work will focus on the combustion of several renewable liquid fuels, namely vegetable oils. It will include analysis of measured data and computational modelling with emphasis on parameters important in the design of industrial burners and combustion chambers, namely local heat loading of the walls. The experimental work will employ stochastic methods to analyse variability, stabilisation and repeatability of data. The results will include highly reliable measured data and methodologies for computational modelling of combustion, validated by the experimental data.

The work will focus on the combustion of liquid fuels and combined combustion of liquid fuels with stabilisation by gas. The fuels will include liquid waste fuels and "clean" liquid fuels producing low pollutant emissions. An important part of the work will consist of analysing physical-chemical fuel properties. The core of experimental work will be combustion tests in a large-scale combustion chamber. The activities of the doctoral student will further include the planning and preparations of experiments, data collection and analysis, with emphasis on data relevant for the practise. Outputs of the work will also include extensions to a knowledge base, the development of which is already under way.
The objective of the doctoral study is primarily the creation of a software application enabling the modelling of biomass combustion in a fixed bed. The program will be created in MATLAB environment including graphical user interface. The target is to simulate combustion of biomass on a grate and tuning of models using data available from the literature, experiments or from industrial units. Further work will focus on extending a database of physical and chemical biomass properties. Attention will be given also to the development of laboratory equipment for the research of the grate combustion of biomass.

The work will focus on the integrated hydrocracking and hydrotreating reactors and give insight on the advantageousness of such integration. The work will involve analysis of on site measured data resulting in computational modelling with emphasis on key process parameters important in the design of such reactors integration. The on site analysis work will employ methods to analyse key process parameters variability, stability and repeatability of measured data. The results will include highly reliable measured data and methodologies of computational modelling of key process parameters validated by the plant real data.
The work will be focused on study and solution of the assesment and identification of several categories of solide waste life cycle (LCA) with the energy utilisation. Based on this, the recommendation for the design of technologies with the high potential of waste energy development will be done. Technical-economic analysis of mentioned technologies and its combinations and possibilities is expected.
The objective of the assignment will be to obtain new findings concerning transfer phenomena during crystallization and cooling of concast significantly rectangular-profile steel slabs inside a caster. It will be necessary to establish a dynamic model of the transient temperature field that will analyse the process and in real time, or even shorter. This model will contain a program for scanning all real operational parameters. On the interface of this program, the calculation of the temperature field of the slab will be confronted with the operational parameters that are measured on-line. After determining the limit values of the decisive output parameters, a system will be set up for the control of the caster depending on the current state and recommended limit values. The model is to be integrated into the information system of the concasting technology at EVRAZ VÍTKOVICE STEEL, a.s.
