Sci-Fi-Turbo HORIZON Project kicked off January 1st, 2024: https://scifiturbo.eu/

P. Cinnella appointed Editor in Chief of Computers & Fluids 

Computers & Fluids, published by Elsevier, has been running since 1973, and is one of the oldest Journals in Computational Fluid Dynamics.

Best paper award ASME TURBO EXPO 2022

Our paper presented at the 2022 Turbo Expo in Rotterdam "Hot-Wire Anemometry in High Subsonic Organic Vapor Flows", ASME Paper GT2022‐81686, was chosen as one of the Best Papers by the Controls, Diagnostics & Instrumentation Committee of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Turbo Expo Technical Conference. The paper results from a collaboration with Technical University of Muenster (Germany) and our team in the frame of ANR-DFG project REGAL-ORC, whereby the German team developed hot-wire anemometry for organic vapour with the support of high-fidelity numerical simulations by PhD candidate Camille Matar
