Tour of The UW Engine Research Center (ERC)

This month, the ASME Milwaukee Section and SAE will tour the  UW Engine Research Center on the UW Campus in Madison, WI.  Afterwards, we will have dinner at the Essen Haus.  This is a joint tour event that is open to members of both organizations and their guests.

The Engine Research Center is devoted to fundamental research on spark ignition and diesel engines and has been a leader in Low Temperature Combustion research. The ERC includes seven (7) active faculty members and typically ~60 graduate students in addition to several full-time staff members. The Engine Research Center (ERC) is a world-leading research and educational institution dedicated to investigating the fundamental thermo-physical processes that control combustion performance and the pollutant emissions formed during combustion in internal combustion engines. The annual research expenditures of the ERC have averaged approximately $3 million for the past 5 years.
