Whilst studying at ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½, Mechanical Engineering students are introduced to specialist equipment, software and laboratories used by professional mechanical engineers.

Mechanical Engineering Facilities

Machining and manufacturing facilities
Machining and manufacturing facilities – providing students with training and supervised access supported by technical staff.
Reverse Heat Engine
An air conditioning unit. At the heart of the unit is a thermodynamics cycle called a reverse heat engine, more commonly known as a refrigerator. The unit can therefore be used to demonstrate manipulation of air and also how a refrigerator works.
MarcetBoiler
Marcet Boiler – allow students to investigate properties of saturated steam.
WindTunnelRig
Our high speed wind tunnel rig is used to investigate the subsonic and supersonic flow regimes and is designed to simulate the flow found in rocket nozzles or in the oil and gas industry.
Wind Tunnel for fluid mechanics and aerodynamics.
