Our mission is to gain fundamental knowledge about turbulent incompressible and compressible, single and multiphase flows through numerical and experimental research. We develop new and improved computational and experimental techniques for the study of such flows in both fundamental and real-world environments.
Our applied research is carried out in close cooperation with industry, both in national and in international projects.
A large part of our teaching activity is carried out within our International Master's programme in Applied Mechanics and Mobility Engineering (Aerospace track). In these programs, we offer courses covering a wide range of topics, including turbulence modelling, experimental fluid dynamics, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), multiphase flow, heat transfer, turbomachinery, aerospace propulsion, aircraft design, and aerospace projects including drone technology.
