Page under construction(Last update: June 18, 1997)
Welcome! This is the Home Page for the Department of Energy of the
School of Mechanical Engineering - FEM - UNICAMP. It is our pleasure to
introduce the faculty, the activities and the researches conducted in
the DE-FEM.
UNICAMP, the State University of Campinas, is located in
Campinas, the second largest city of Sao Paulo - Brazil. For further
information on Campinas and UNICAMP please click below.
The Department of Energy develops activities on the areas of heat transfer,
fluid mechanics, applied thermodynamics, energy demand forecasting and energy planning.
The interdisciplinary nature of our activities
has been, for years, a characteristic of the graduate courses on
mechanical engineering.
The research programs in basic and applied
topics are developed by the faculty in close collaboration with graduate and
undergraduate students. These programs are sponsored by federal and state agencies,
state companies and private companies and industries.
The Department of Energy
also supports the activities related to the above mentioned areas which are maintained
by the School of Extension of the FEM.
The resources of the Department of
Energy include undergraduate and research laboratories and computing systems. The
students have access to the computers that form the School of Mechanical Engineering
network, which are connected to the campus network. On-line information on library
catalogs, research data base and communication networks, including Internet, are
provided.
The Department of Energy houses the
MULTLAB -
The Multiphase Flow Laboratory, which does research on multiphase flow and consulting
work on fluid flow and fluid flow instrumentation.
The projects and researches
under development by the Department of Energy comprise:
(i) the impact of new lightning technology on the domestic consumption of
electric power;
(ii) energy demand forecasting for energy intensive industries;
(iii) drying processes of biomasses;
(iv) electric power co-generation in sugar plants;
(v) multiphase flow in pipes and equipments;
(vi) gravitational segregation of liquid-liquid mixtures;
(vii) development of extra-corporeal vaneless centrifugal blood pump;
(viii) exergy analysis of industrial processes;
(ix) modified gas-turbine cycle analysis;
(x) cooling of electronic components;
(xi) energy and environmental planning for transportation systems
(xii) computational fluid dynamics and heat transfer;
(xiii) environmental impact of energy consumption;
(xiv) combustion and gasification, mathematical modelling,
among others.
