The specific research areas of the Turbine Department are aeromechanics, thermodynamics, exploitation and diagnostics of large power steam turbines as well as of ORC turbines. The scope of research covers also investigations of combustion of low caloric gases in piston engines and gas turbines and numerical modelling of flow, combustion and heat transfer in power machinery.
