Alberto Guardone gives an overview of NICFD capabilities of SU2 at the 1st SU2 Developers meeting in Delft, 5-6 of September 2016. In the slide, the latest TROVA results provide the first-ever validation of a CFD solver for non-ideal flows.All presentations can be downloaded following...
Next Monday, the 5th of September, the most active development teams from around the world will join in Delft for the 1st Annual SU2 Developers Meeting. Giulio and Alberto will give a presentation about NICFD at 9.35 (CEST) and will take part to the two-day meeting for core developers.Agenda...
Any student and researcher working in the field of ORC technology can apply to the research scholarships. The scholarships cover travel and accommodation related to short-term research projects of 3–6 months. The grants are 3.000–10.000 $ depending on project duration and location of the hosting...
Politecnico di Milano keeps investing in the CREA laboratory: construction works of the new building specifically designed to host the TROVA test-rig are currently under way at Campus Bovisa La Masa, Milano. Almost time to move back in! Almost...
The first measurements using Laser Doppler Velocimetry are currently being carried out @TROVA. These are the first-ever velocity measurements within a non-ideal compressible-fluid flows in the close proximity of the liquid-vapour saturation curve. The flow seeding required the design and construction of a the pressurised seeding...
Shocks, turbulence and interactions in non-ideal and dense gases Dr. Emile Touber, Imperial College Abstract: Dense gases are characterised by molecules featuring large numbers of active degrees of freedom (quantified by the Cv/R ratio). The isentropes in such gases have the distinct property of following rather closely the isotherms (the two become identical in...
