  • Don’t Forget Combustion in our Race Toward Zero

    The AIAA New England Section is organizing an expert webinar session.  Come and listen to Dr Kelly Senecal on the role of combustion in the race to zero emissions.

     

    During this seminar, Dr. Senecal will discuss the importance and challenges of decarbonizing the transportation sector. He will untangle the myths of internal combustion and argue that, although the use of electrification will continue to rise, the ICE holds a firm place in both future transportation applications and various industrial sectors. With continued research and development in combustion systems, hybridization, renewable fuels, and computer modeling techniques, low-carbon ICE should remain at the heart of transportation systems for years to come.

     

    This seminar will introduce the research taking place globally to dramatically reduce the carbon footprint of propulsion systems. Particular focus will be placed on advanced combustion strategies, bio- and electro-fuels, electrification, and how computational fluid dynamics, high-performance computing, and artificial intelligence are being leveraged to turn these new systems into reality. If you are curious how transportation technologies can be further improved—and as a result, fit into a low-carbon future—this seminar is for you.
