13th International Workshop on

Premixed Turbulent Flames

 

Friday July 27, 2012, from 15:00 to 19:00 hours
and Saturday July 28, 2012, 9:00 to 17:00 hours

Room 105, Institute of Heat Engineering, Faculty of Power and

Aeronautical Engineering, Street:  Nowowiejska 21/25,

Warsaw University of Technology  (see map below)

                         

***************************************************************************************************

The International Workshop on Premixed Turbulent Flames is held every two years as a "satellite" meeting of the International Combustion Symposium.

Goal -           To provide an open forum to discuss fundamental experimental and

                    computational research on premixed turbulent flames.

   

Format -        We encourage open discussion, presentations are limited to 10 minutes

Previous workshops were held at:

 

Berkeley          1988             Cambridge       2000

Paris                1990              Tokyo               2002

Sydney            1992             Evanston          2004

Previous program organizers:  Robert Cheng, LBL  and Fred Gouldin, Cornell Univ.

 

Some items that we plan to discuss:

1.    Comparisons of different modeling approaches for PTF

2.    Regimes of turbulent combustion, new concepts

3.    Possible interactions with the TNF workshop and the TNF database

4.    Tabulation of DNS data in the PTF Database

5.    New laser diagnostics – heat release, flamelet structure, movies, etc.

6.    What can we decide for certain, what is still a research issue ?

7.    Progress/expansion of the PTF Database
