Instability of Stratified Flows

Lecture - Dr. Jonathan Healey, Keele University, Great Britain, Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR, v. v. i., Dolejškova 5, Prague, lecture room A, May 12, 2009 (Tuesday), 9.30-10.30

Dr. J. Healey graduated with a degree in physics at Oxford University in 1987, where he also obtained a DPhil in physics in 1991. His doctoral thesis was concerned with the analysis of phase spaces reconstructed from time series data. In 1991 he was appointed to a post-doctoral position in the Engineering Department at Cambridge University to work on the laminar-turbulent transition of boundary layers. In 1996 he was appointed first to a temporary lectureship in the Mathematics Department at Brunel University, and then to a lectureship in the Mathematics Department at Keele University.  »»»

Fundamentals and Applications of Active Flow Control

Lecture - Prof. Avraham Seifert, University Tel Aviv, Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR, v. v. i., Dolejškova 5, Prague, lecture room A, April 8, 2009 (Wednesday), 14:00

Prof. Seifert will present two recent research projects conducted in Tel Aviv using active flow control. The first project describes taking airfoil separation control concept to flight while the second describes the application of the newly developed suction and oscillatory blowing actuator for aerodynamic drag reduction of large trucks.  »»» 


Boundary layer experiments in a water channel

Lecture - dr. ir. Hendrik de Lange, Eindhoven University of Technology, Institute of Thermomechanics AS CR, v. v. i., Dolejškova 5, Prague, lecture room A , March 31, 2009, Tuesday,14:00-16:00

Main topics of the research of Dr. de Lange are the boundary layer transition, heat transfer and cooling in gas turbines and the thermodynamics and transient behavior of turbine/compressor systems.The flat plate boundary layer experiments in a water channel have been performed. The particle image velocimetry (PIV) was used to analyze the coherence of flow structures in the vicinity of breakdown to turbulence.  »»»
