These laboratories have been equipped with experimental, analytical mini project and computational facilities to provide students with first-hand experience with course concepts, and with an opportunity to explore some methods used by industries. The laboratory course contents and implementation have been designed with the following objectives:

  1. To give students an opportunity to apply fundamental concepts related to chemical and gas engineering knowledge
  2. To familiarize students with measurement techniques using some scientific methods and instruments that are encountered in industry
  3. To assist students in obtaining measurements techniques and hands on experience in assembling and testing different experiments
  4. To give the students experience in computer data acquisition, analysis, control, and presentation
  5. To develop students’ oral and written communication skills through oral presentation and technical report writing using computer application skills through the use of word processing, spreadsheets, and graphics
  6. To develop students’ problem solving, team coordination, and critical thinking skills through open-ended laboratory works.

Gas System Laboratory

This laboratory provides facilities for experiments related to gas control system and gas transmission and distribution which includes metering methods and pressure regulating. Facilities available include pipe installation system using materials such as polyethylene (PE), carbon steel and copper pipe. Furthermore, there is an opportunity to understand concepts on gas metering, gas flow meter, coating defection as well exploring the methodology of gas pipeline jointing method. Other facilities available are corrosion kits, flow measurement kits, and porosity detection tool.

Calibration System Laboratory
This laboratory provides services and facilities for calibrations and experiments on pressure and temperature system as well as fluid flow studies which include low to medium flow calibration facilities and metering research. Other facilities available are control and measurement, gas meter servicing and calibration, performance of gas meter through regulator and control valves functions and gas flow characteristics. The laboratory is also fully equipped with complete computer system facilities and temperature-controlled room.

Gas Testing and Utilization Laboratory
This laboratory provides services for experiments on the quality and characterization of gas and liquid fuel such as density, calorific value and flame properties. There are also facilities available to further enhance the practical understanding of the basic concept of burner control and trouble shooting. In addition, thermal energy research is actively studied for hydrogen gas production through auto-thermal reaction (ATR) system in fuel cell utilization, environmental study using catalytic combustion system for high and low temperatures, energy saving and combined heat and power (CHP) and design system using the art of simulation modeling of CFD.

Combustion System Laboratory
his laboratory is equipped with a complete range of domestic and industrial equipments that are used in research and academic purposes such as fuel combustion system, flame characteristics test rig, industrial combustion simulation software, flue gas analysis system and various types of industrial burners such as recuperative and regenerative burners for combustion efficiency and exhaust emission studies.
