[Brief_CV] => Malcolm Robins discovered Heat and Mass Transfer whilst a marine engineering student. It set him on a career dedicated to thermal systems analysis, design and construction.
Registration as Chartered Engineer was predicated by major projects for Alcan Aluminium throughout the UK, and secondments to the Production Engineering Research Association. He received the British Design Council’s Award for \'Consistent High Standards of Project Management and Design Capability\'.
His first expert presentation was a 5-day deposition to the United States Court of Ohio, for which he was commended by the Lead Attorneys on both sides of the action. He has since completed many investigations into power and thermal energy systems, and a broad range of successful expert witness instructions. Recent issues include:
Induction Furnace Explosion • Water Supply • Solar Energy • Heat Pumps         •         Electrical Appliances • Machine Noise • Biothermal Processing • Diesel Fuel • Hospital CHP Plant          • District Heating • Metal Finishing • Biomass Boilers •    Environmental Planning • Hydraulics
