Ing. Petr Kotrbáček, Ph.D. and Ing. Michal Pohanka, Ph.D. of the Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Laboratory at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, BUT, have developed a special device for adjusting the jets of cooling systems, especially those in metallurgy, which ensure the required temperature regime of the cylinder surface.


Are you asking yourself what a mobile inertial measuring unit is? It is an independent measuring unit with data recording for determining the dynamic parameters of a vehicle, including software for transferring data from the device.


Researchers from the Heat Transfer and Fluid Flow Laboratory of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Brno University of Technology have developed special temperature sensors embedded in a linear measuring device. 


An electric arc produces intense radiation accompanied by high temperature. The energy transfer through this radiation is an important factor in the energy balance of thermal plasma.


The condition of shock absorbers in a car is important for driving safety. The service life of shock absorbers is limited and they require regular check-ups. One option for testing shock absorbers is to disassemble and test them away from the vehicle. This is a very costly option.


Overheated rooms caused by excess sunshine is, especially in summer, a normal phenomenon which inconveniences lots of households and workers in office buildings. Air-conditioning is the usual solution, but it is not cheap. However, Ing. Milan Ostrý, Ph.D. of the Institute of Building Structures and his research team have found a solution that offers a more suitable economic and effective alternative, which is usable in all types of buildings.
