Prof. Alberto Coronas is currently professor of thermal engineering in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Rovira i Virgili University, Tarragona, Spain, and Head of the Research Group on Applied Thermal Engineering (CREVER). He studied physics at the University of Valencia (1971-1974) and the University of Barcelona (1974-1976) where he majored in industrial physics. In 1983, he received his PhD in Physics from the University of Barcelona. Prof. Coronas began his research into absorption heat pumps during a postdoctoral stay under the supervision of Prof. Robert Bugarel at the Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Ingénieurs en Génie Chimique (Toulouse, France). His research activity covers the field of absorption technology for industrial refrigeration and heat pumps, heat transfer and thermophysical properties of new working mixtures, and polygeneration technologies. He has supervised approximately 35 PhD theses and published more than 150 referenced technical publications.
