PhD candidates
The Department of Thermal Sciences is open to ambitious people interested in advanced scientific development combined with obtaining a doctorate degree in sciences. Our PhD candidates conduct their research work under the supervision of experienced professors, often in cooperation with foreign research centers. You can learn more about the possibilities of scientific development at the Department of Thermal Sciences here.
Below is a list of doctoral students who currently conduct research at the Department.
Division of Refrigeration and Heat Pumps
Supervisor: Bogusław Białko, PhD DSc, Assoc. Prof.

Division of Refrigeration and Heat Pumps
Supervisor: Bartosz Zajączkowski, PhD DSc, Assoc. Prof.
Description: Her scientific interest is in pool boiling under thermodynamic conditions close to the triple point occurring on a single tube and on a bundle. In her research, she plans to fill the knowledge gap on low-pressure boiling on tubes, outline boiling regimes for different operating conditions, and lead to heat transfer coefficient correlations corresponding to the acquired data.
