von Karman Institute for Fluid Dynamics, Belgium, June 30 - July 4, 2025

Join us for an in-depth exploration of Turbomachinery Flow Simulation and Modeling from June 30 to July 4, 2026. This series will delve into the latest techniques and trends in multistage turbomachinery flow simulation, covering both design and off-design conditions, and their application in multidisciplinary design optimization. Lecture Series Directors: Prof. Frank Eulitz, VKI and Prof. Marcello Manna, University of Naples Topics Covered: - Scale-Resolved Simulations: High-fidelity modeling techniques and their application. - Turbulence and Transition Modeling: Understanding and managing transitional and turbulent flows in multistage turbomachinery configurations. - Mixing Plane Models, Time-resolved & Fourier Methods: Different approaches for different demands - Boundary Conditions for Turbomachinery Flows: Understanding their role on the solution. - Convergence Measurement & CFD Validation: Ensuring reliable and robust results.

Designed for turbomachinery CFD developers and advanced practitioners in both industry and research, this lecture series offers a unique opportunity to gain insights from leading professionals in the field: Dr. Graham Ashcroft, DLR, German Aerospace Center; Dr. Christian Frey, DLR, German Aerospace Center; Dr. Laurent Gicquel, CERFACS; Prof. Li He, University of Oxford; Prof. Koen Hillewaert, University of Liège, VKI; Prof. Sławomir Kubacki, Warsaw University of Technology; Prof. Richard Sandberg, University of Melbourne; Dr. Philippe Spalart, Fluid Sciences Director, Flexcompute; Prof. Tom Verstraete, VKI, Belgium
