Dr Paul Medwell is a Professor in the School of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering at The University of Adelaide. He has over twenty years of experience in a broad range of activities related to energy systems. His technical research is particularly focussed on advancing fundamental understanding of combustion systems, especially through the development and application of optical diagnostic measurement techniques. His combustion activities have been diverse, including turbulent flames, sooting flames, high-pressure combustion, domestic/industrial appliances, and the so-called MILD (moderate or intense low oxygen dilution) combustion regime for lowering NOx emissions, increasing efficiency, and improving fuel flexibility.Beyond combustion and laser diagnostics, Dr Medwell's research interests include fluid mechanics and energy utilisation more broadly, as well as biomass and biodigesters in the context of humanitarian engineering. He has published over 200 scientific articles, and regularly presents his findings to international audiences. In addition to his research work, Dr Medwell serves as an engineering consultant to industry and is an active contributor to the development of standards at national and international level.Dr Medwell is an Australian Research Council Future Fellow and was a Discovery Early Career Researcher Award recipient. He is the University's Primary Contact to Standards Australia.
