The Fuel Zone was a themed zone, funded by the Royal Academy of Engineering. Ryan designs powertrains for Jaguar Land Rover, Sarah designs mini nuclear power plants for the Royal Navy’s submarines, Priyanka researches aerodynamics and heat transfer for jet engines at Oxford University, Paul is an Electrical, Control and Instrumentation Engineer at a nuclear power station and Chris works for the BRE National Solar Centre researching new storage for renewable energy.
The zone was lively with most of the engineers highly active in the CHAT and ASK section throughout the event. There were many interesting and thought provoking questions, with a lot of interest in the future of engineering and topics such as solar power and transportation.
