Design of Enhanced Heat Transfer Surfaces through Novel Methods of Design and Manufacturing

当我第一次参加实验室会议在我的研究过程中的第三个学期的热力学我，设计我们自己的实验来测量涡轮机上的压力和温度下降，我意识到我的兴趣所在。由于从那时起我获得了重要的实验室经验，例如在热力学（I & II），传热学（I & II），流体力学（I & II）课程中，我相信我能胜任设计和执行我申请的项目所需的实验程序。在这些实验室课程中，我们曾经单独或小组工作，由研究生或高级研究人员指导，这帮助我培养了我的团队合作和人际交往能力。在Dionissios Margaris教授的指导下，我在撰写关于“通过自然和诱导通风口-格栅的气流实验研究”的毕业论文时，在实验室工作和合作方面获得了更多的经验。这个实验持续了八个月，我每天工作十个小时。毕业后，我开始寻找合适的博士机会，因为我已经意识到我对研究的热爱，在实验室里花了这么多时间。

When I first attended a laboratory session during the 3rd semester of my studies on the course of Thermodynamics I, designing our own experiments to measure pressure and temperature drop on turbines I realized where my interests lay. Due to the significant laboratory experience I have gained since then, such as in the courses of Thermodynamics (I & II), Heat transfer (I & II), Fluid mechanics (I & II), I believe I would competently design and execute needed experimental procedures for the project I am applying for. In these laboratory sessions we used to work both individually and in groups, mentored by postgraduate students or senior researchers, which helped me develop my teamwork and interpersonal skills. I got even more experienced in laboratory work and cooperation while working on my diploma thesis on "Experimental study on air flow through natural and induced ventilation ports - grilles" which was supervised by professor Dionissios Margaris. The experiment lasted eight months where I worked for ten hours a day. Right after graduating, I started looking for suitable PhD opportunities as I had realized my love for research, having spent so many hours in the laboratory.
