Hi everybody.

I´m a PHD student at the University of Guanajuato in Mexico, and i´m looking for CFD laboratory or a research group dedicated to CFD (preferably that uses Fluent).

My research area is the analysis of renewable energy processes especially solar energy.

Does anyone have any suggestions, about any research group in any university?

Can anyone help me?

Thank you so much.

Hope you can help me.

Visit pages of a few universities, they usually have a list of academic staff and their research interests and projects. E.g. click here (unsw sydney) and search for 'fluid dynamics'. There's several CFD academics. Although this is just an example, I'm not sure who does solar..

Thank you for your answer, i´ve already searched pages of universities. i´ve found a lot of CFD research groups, but the majority is focused in turbulence for example.

Consider that turbulent flows are usual in many problems, laminar conditions are very rare ...

I believe you may ask people whether they'd like to work with you on a laminar flow project if you think that it is interesting and relevant. You would have to provide rationale for such request (your level of knowledge, your willingless to learn, the proposed project scope or timing, or anything else that you would consider relevant).
