Komninos Neophytos

Komninos Neophytos serves as Laboratory Teaching Staff (EDIP) at the Department of Heat, School of Mechanical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), a role he has held since 2014. He represents E.D.I.P. members on the Heat Sector General Assembly and School of Mechanical Engineering Study Committee.

His academic credentials include:

• Doctoral Degree (PhD) in Mechanical Engineering, NTUA (2007)
• Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, University of Patras (2000)

Dr. Neophytos specializes in thermodynamic systems, with core expertise in Pure and Mixture Thermodynamics, Power Cycle Optimization, and Internal/External Combustion Engine Analysis. His research bridges theoretical thermodynamics with practical energy applications, particularly in sustainable power generation and refrigeration technology.

He has authored two seminal textbooks: 'APPLIED THERMODYNAMICS OF PURE SUBSTANCES' (2022) and 'APPLIED THERMODYNAMICS OF MIXTURES' (2020), plus a book chapter on HCCI combustion (2012). With 18 journal publications (575 citations, h-index 13) and extensive peer-review work for journals like Applied Thermal Engineering and Energy, his scholarship significantly impacts energy engineering.

As a Technical Chamber of Greece member, he serves on NTUA's supply contract tender committee and is deeply involved in laboratory development, recently facilitating donations of R290 heat pump systems from Thermogas and AHI CARRIER SEE.

No data exists regarding student supervision or grant funding in the source materials.

He operates within NTUA's Laboratory of Applied Thermodynamics and Refrigeration Technology, which focuses on refrigerated vehicle systems and received notable industry equipment donations in early 2025.
