Ivan Alonso De Miguel

Ivan Alonso De Miguel is a Full Professor in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Construction at the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB), specializing in Mechanical Engineering. He has held academic roles at UIB and the University of Valladolid, with teaching experience in thermofluidic engineering, thermal machines, mechanical systems, and renewable energy. His research focuses on hybrid solar panels with phase change materials (PCM), computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of thermal processes, and thermodynamic properties of organic mixtures.

• Current affiliations: University of the Balearic Islands, GREEN research group (Green Hysland, AppSun)
• Past affiliations: University of Valladolid, University of Burgos, IESL-FORTH (Cretan Matter Waves group)

Research trends include thermal energy storage via PCM, CFD simulation of melting/solidification, hybrid insulation kits for mobile spaces, and applications in renewable energy systems. His work bridges theoretical modeling (ERAS, DISQUAC) with experimental validation in thermodynamics and quantum physics.

Scientific awards:

• FPI contract for PhD studies (Junta de Castilla y León)

Teaching and academic contributions span undergraduate and master's degrees, including thesis supervision and co-directing the CIES'2022 scientific committee. He is a member of the GREEN and GIEST research groups.
