Institute of turbomachinery was the earliest teaching and research division in the specialty of thermal turbines including steam turbine and gas turbine inChina, which was set up inJiaotongUniversityin 1952. In 1956 it fostered the first graduates, and in 1959 it started to recruit graduated students. In early1980’the institute can confer the master degree, doctoral degree and offer post-doctoral research in power engineering and engineering thermophysics. Institute of turbomachinery is one of the key construction disciplines supported by the “211 Project” and “985 Project” of Xi’an Jiaotong University. In 2002, the discipline of Power Machinery and Engineering was passed the state evaluation and became the state key discipline. At present, the institute has 16 staff, including 6 professors, 2 associate professors, 1 senior engineer, 7 lecturers and 1 technician, among them 14 staff obtained Ph.D. degree.
Up to now, more than 2700 undergraduate students, 240 graduate students graduated from the institute. Several textbooks written or edited by the specialty are widely used as the textbooks in the field of thermal turbomachinery at many universities around the country. Over 40 scientific and technological achievements of the institute were awarded by the Ministry of Education and the provincial governments in the past 25 years. The institute has close cooperative relationships with the universities and professors inUnited States,United Kingdom,Germany,Japan,Belgiumand Korean in both academic and personal exchanges.
