3rd International Combustion Institute-Summer School on Near-Wall Reactive Flows
Advances in various engineering and process applications necessitate better understanding of underlying near-wall and surface phenomena. Combustion, engine heat transfer and wall cooling, high-temperature material synthesis and processing, and chemical process technology (chemical vapor deposition and infiltration, catalytic processes, etc.) are just a few examples. Processes, such as flame-wall interaction, pyrolysis and fire suppression by flame retardants, surface reactions and their coupling with nearby chemically reactive flows, film and deposit formation, are challenges that are addressed in ongoing research efforts.
The course objective is to provide the participants with today’s detailed knowledge on:
- kinetics and reduction strategies, including flame retardants
- modelling and simulation of combustion processes and fires constrained by walls
- turbulent near-wall flows
- near-wall reactive flow diagnostics and applications
The CI-Summer School in cooperation with TU Darmstadt, KIT, and SINTEF is intended to report on the status and perspective of experimental, theoretical, and numerical techniques for understanding, describing, and designing near-wall reactive flows in diverse scientific and engineering fields. It aims furthermore at providing an opportunity for researchers and interested workers to present the state of the art, discuss new challenges and developments, and exchange ideas in the areas of near-wall reactive flows.
The application deadline is March 22, 2024. The number of participants is limited, so please apply early. You can do so here.
More information about the program, including invited speakers, is available on the event’s website.
