NEW PhD candidate – Haley Hoover
News from 2019
Haley Hoover started as a PhD candidate at the centre in August 2019. Haley's preliminary project title is “Resitivity of Partially Transformed Materials in the FeSi/Si Process”, and Professor Merete Tangstad is her supervisor.
Haley got her master’s degree in Sustainable Energy Science from Reykjavik University in May 2019.
The aim of the project is to study the energy development in the furnace through examining the resistivity of the charge materials that are transformed as a function of temperature, size, and composition. As of now, the resistivity of these partially transformed materials is virtually unknown, so the project is expected to provide novel insight into the flow of energy throughout the furnace.
