Overview

The Hot Corrosion Studies of Gas Turbine Alloy Materials PhD degree at Cranfield University will focus studying high temperature corrosion mechanisms in details to identify the material degradation and coatings applications details in extreme environments.

Features

A novel techniques/method will be developed with focus on better prediction and more accurate measurement of high temperature corrosion rate involving mathematical models validated through simulation, experiments and analysis.

Programme Structure

Curriculum:

You will work in a multidisciplinary environment consisting of material scientist, chemists, engineers, physicists, metrologist.

During the PhD, you will gain the invaluable experience of working at the intersection of several research fields with the challenges and opportunities that this represents.

On addition, this self-funded PhD project includes the ability to participate in industry-led research initiatives and access to the Cranfield Doctoral Training Network.

You will gain knowledge of high temperature materials application for energy and aerospace sector.

The knowledge of alloys material behaviour in aggressive conditions and its serviceability for the relevant sector.
