The Propulsion Laboratory houses experimental facilities for the under graduate and post graduate programs. It also has equipment for research activities. Lab has a R-25 jet engine and a piston engine. Students can study the fuel and lubrication related systems. Thermal related experiments include forced convective heat transfer over a flat plate,determination of heat of combustion of aviation fuel, measurement of burning velocity of a premixed flame and study of the flame lift up and fall back phenomenon for varied Air/Fuel ratio. Lab is equipped with a Cascade testing tunnel for testing of axial compressor or turbine blade rows, and there is an axial flow fan unit for testing axial compression.
