We specialise in designing modern propulsion systems and aerodynamic solutions for the aviation and automotive industries.

• aircraft internal combustion engines
• aircraft design and systems
• engine control systems
• alternative fuel supply systems
• vehicle electrical power systems
• aerodynamic solutions for machines and technical structures

Our research covers the full spectrum of thermodynamic and flow-related phenomena.

• CFD modelling
• wind tunnel testing
• simulation of flow, heat and mass transfer processes
• combustion process simulations
• advanced engineering tools: Ansys, AVL

We design and analyse

• internal combustion engine supply systems
• alternative propulsion systems for stationary, automotive and aviation applications
• flow propulsion systems
• electronic control systems

Experimental research includes piston internal combustion engines, fuel systems and modern electronic control systems for propulsion units.

Key achievements

• the world's first EASA-certified electronic fuel injection system for a high-power aircraft engine
• a photovoltaic panel system mounted on bus roofs operating in Poland and abroad
• electronic gas injection system for spark-ignition automotive engines – over 50,000 implemented units
• electronic diagnostic tester for Polish cars – 250 devices sold

These solutions contribute to the prestige of Polish engineering and strengthen the competitiveness of the economy.
