Research Themes

This group has a wide range of interests in fluid dynamics and thermodynamics including:

• flow over compliant panels including rotating flows
• industrial computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
• flows in wakes of bluff bodies
• drag reduction thorugh use of passive surfaces
• flow instability experiments and modelling
• development of CFD algorithms
• use of parallel computer architectures
• fluid structure interaction
• biomechanics
• application of dynamical systems theories to transition
• adsorption refrigeration
• solar refrigeration
• heat exchanger design and analysis including CFD
• Taylor vortex flow
• stochastic resonance
• fundamental experimental fluid dynamics
• rotating flows

Activities

Seminars - these are held during termtime at Warwick, usually on a Wednesday afternoon at 4pm in the School of Engineering, Room A206a.
