W.T. David
M.A., Sc.D
(19 April 1886 – 29 May 1948) was Professor of Engineering
at Liverpool University from 1922 to 1948 and from 1920 to 1922 at University College, Cardiff in Wales. His pioneering doctoral research under Professor Bertram Hopkinson at Trinity College, Cambridge into flame gas phenomena
anticipated and was confirmed by later developments in quantum mechanics and David became an established authority on gaseous explosions in combustion engines. During WW1 he served as an Army Major (Research and Inspection) and in 1915 was appointed Director in the Ministry of Munitions and in 1918 Inspector of Technical Schools in the Ministry of Education. David was a member of the Institutions of Civil and of Mechanical Engineers, and was chairman of the Yorkshire Association of the Institution of Civil Engineers for the session 1928-29. He died in 1948.
