Covid-19: Meeting the challenges through Engineering

I was president of the IET for 2016-17, and have been asked by government to gather practical and innovative ideas from our Engineering communities. So, please enter any ideas you might have in this thread that might help address and mitigate the Covid-19 crisis. Ideas might include digital tracking / monitoring through therapy equipment and beyond. Even ideas outside your usual expertise domain will be welcome. Now’s the time for Engineering to show we can change the world!

  • Hi Jeremy,

    I work in the oil and gas industry and we have a large number of electrical heat tracing applications.....I'm sure I can find you contacts at EHT manufacturer's that might be able to help with this problem.

    Generally, EHT is designed to maintain temperature in pipelines in my industry, rather than raise it higher enough to vaporize liquid, so I'm not personally sure how much energy would be required for what you are describing.  However, the EHT manufacturer's could well have resolved this problem in previous application.  Please reach out if you need contact details, I will help if I can.

    Cheers,

    Mike
