Course summary

Our Flow Measurement Technologies research group specialises in the development of advanced flow measurement techniques, and in validating the measurement outputs.With the development of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), many more sensors are being deployed in diverse environments from manufacturing to energy distribution systems. Our research develops technology to provide low cost, accurate and validated measurement systems to support the efficient operation of IIoT systems.The need to act on climate change, and sustainable energy security, is well documented. The Climate Change Act 2008 committed the UK to reduce the net carbon account for 2050 by at least 80% of the 1990 baseline. In June 2019, the Climate Change Act 2008 (2050 Target Amendment) Order 2019, set a target for at least a 100% reduction. Based on an earlier Committee on Climate Change (CCC) assessment, the net-zero target is beyond current technical feasibility: only further research and development, innovation and technology development will deliver the target.However, the development of low carbon technologies alone is insufficient. In summary - ''you cannot control what you cannot measure''. The pursuit of net-zero requires the development of measurement technology and infrastructure for accurate tracking of key materials (for example, carbon dioxide and hydrogen) economy-wide, which are not currently available. These measurement systems are necessary in order to evaluate the effectiveness of particular low carbon technologies or policies, and for formal reporting or auditing.Coventry University has joined TUV-NEL and other partners to form the Clean Fuels Centre, with the aim of developing flow measurement validation technologies and infrastructure to support the roll-out of net-zero energy systems.Please use the official Coventry University website as your main source of information as our courses are subject to change throughout the year.
