INTECOCIS plenary presentation at the APS meeting in San Francisco
Thermoacoustics will be the main topic of the presentation given by Dr T. Poinsot during one of the eight plenary sessions of the next American Physical Society meeting (http://apsdfd2014.stanford.edu) in San Francisco (November 23rd-25th). This is a great opportunity to show some of the achievements reached during the first 18 months of the project.
Three PhD defenses on thermoacoustics and combustion noise in November
Three PhD defenses focusing on numerical tools for thermoacoustics and combustion noise will take place at CERFACS in November 2013:
- Emmanuel Motheau (SNECMA/CERFACS) and Pablo Salas (INRIA/CERFACS) will present their PhDs on thermoacoustic solvers (AVSP) on November 15th (see calendar). The two jurys will gather Pr Saad (Uni. of Minnesota), Pr Schuller (EM2C, Ecole Centrale Paris), Pr Morgans (Imperial College), Pr Hochgreb (Cambridge), Pr Nicoud (Montpellier), Pr Meerbergen (Leuven), Dr Larroya (SNECMA), Dr Cazalens (SNECMA), Dr Giraud (INRIA) and Dr Poinsot (IMFT - CNRS).
- Ignacio Duran (SNECMA/CERFACS) will present his work on combustion noise on November 25th at 2.30 (see calendar). The jury will be: Pr C. Tam (Florida State), Pr C. Bailly (LMFA), Pr S. Moreau (Sherbrooke), Dr Bake (DLR), Dr Giauque (ONERA), Dr Sensiau (SNECMA).
These studies are directly linked to the ERC INTECOCIS and have paved the way towards efficient analytical and numerical methods for combustion instabilities and noise. Among the topics which will be discussed:
- Wave propagation through nozzles, turbines
- Efficient algorithms for acoustic computations in realistic configurations (annular combustion chambers)
- Nozzle impedances required for thermoacoustics computation and indirect noise simulations
- Extension of thermoacoustic codes to situations where mixed modes occur (convectively controlled)
- Combustion instabilities in propulsion systems
- And more...
All persons interested in listening to presentations can contact directly the CFD secretary at CERFACS (labadens @ cerfacs.fr)
Abstracts of the three PhDs are available here.
