In a previous study Siemens supported the work of Dr Sam Catchpole-Smith (UoN PhD grad (2019)). The work centred around designing and evaluating new lattice configurations for heat transfer applications in gas turbines. The project outcomes were considered a great success and this is now informing the development of new designs for nozzle guide veins within the business. The purpose of the present work is to expand the design and evaluate methodology still further to support business activities in new areas. This remains a fundamental challenge since the route to devising solutions, manufacturing and implementing them is arduous. This project will address challenges around automated design and evaluated processes for both new part manufacture.Upon initiation the student will audit using numerical methods the opportunities for advantage based on the understanding acquired in the preceding project. This will be used to identify target case studies for redesign. Where thermal evaluation is required the student will make use of custom built facilities available at UoN.Kanazawa University boasts unique 'hybrid' fabrication apparatus which has not be evaluated for the purposes of the structures proposed here. Hence the student will benefit from an international experience well aligned to the core project.

在先前的研究中，西门子支持Sam Catchpole-Smith博士（UON PHD毕业（2019））的工作。该作品围绕设计和评估用于燃气轮机中传热应用的新晶格配置。该项目的结果被认为取得了巨大的成功，这现在正在为企业中的喷嘴指南静脉的新设计开发。本工作的目的是扩大设计并进一步评估方法，以支持新领域的业务活动。这仍然是一个根本的挑战，因为制定解决方案，制造和实施它们的途径是艰巨的。该项目将解决围绕自动设计的挑战，并评估两个新部分制造的过程。这将用于确定重新设计的目标案例研究。在需要热评估的情况下，学生将利用Uon.kanazawa University提供的自定义建筑设施具有独特的“混合”制造设备，尚未出于此处提出的结构的目的进行评估。因此，学生将从与核心项目保持一致的国际经验中受益。
