Sustainable Thermo-Fluid Energy Systems

The research group Sustainable Thermo-Fluid Energy Systems (STFES) has expertise on machines and systems where heat and flow are the main carriers. The research lines are focused on mass and heat transfer, thermal cycles and thermal machines. Both experimental and numerical techniques are used for the analysis, design and optimization of these systems, resulting in a unique position in the field.

Our offices are located in the Daikin Building at the Tech Lane Science Park in Zwijnaarde. Our laboratoy is located in the Technicum Building in the center of Ghent where we have several state-of-the-art test setups in different domains that we try to improve continually.
