A sudden change in surface topography/roughness is frequently encountered by flows in engineering and environment. In this paper, Melika carried out systematic wind tunnel experiments and used the data to understand this type of flows..https://t.co/TneVLBnOJ0
Stall-cells are 3D separated flows on wings that appear under certain conditions and affect the wing performance. In this paper by Francis De Voogt in @flow_journal, we explore how a trailing edge flap affects the appearance of these stall cells. https://t.co/mJ8ISCREex
Actuator disks are frequently used to simplify #windturbines, but how well does that work far away from the object? Magnus from our team @eptntnu, collaborating with @Bharath_Lab, explores this in our new #OA work at J Renew Sustain Energy @AIP_Publishing:

How does a dense cluster of obstacles affect flow and scalar transport? Experiments done by @Claudia67236606 and analysis by Dea Daniella Wangsawijaya now published in @flow_journal. https://t.co/5kqVYl8hHQ
Boundary layer measurements over porous and rough surfaces by @prateek_aero and Dea Wangsawijaya in our new wind tunnel. This is a challenging problem on decoupling the effects of permeability and roughness on wall-turbulence. Hopefully, we can make some progress...
Congratulations to @SteGambuzza who completed his PhD viva today! His work examined the effects of turbulence on performance of lab-scale turbines. Thanks to Majid Bastankhah and Davide Lasagna for examining his thesis. He is the 24th PhD completion from the lab!
We are looking for cheap 4-5MP resolution cameras that operate at 100-200ish Hz for PIV use with LED light source. Any suggestions from fluids folks out there??
Does particle shape affect mass transfer in turbulent flows? Find out in Our new @JFluidMech paper on Mass transfer from small spheroids suspended in a turbulent fluid https://t.co/xkCkbbIWVn
Meet Dr Andhini Zurman-Nasution, Research Fellow at @unisouthampton. Andhini's research covers #CFD & fluid-structure interaction of propulsive flapping foils, inspired by fins of aquatic animals & wings of bio-flyers, to improve engineering design #drones#WomeninSTEM

This year's event will be held online. Are you joining us? https://t.co/UE6ue3ceNY
PhD Opportunity in my lab! The project is all about using windtunnel/watertunnel facilities and laser-diagnostics to investigate indoor-outdoor air quality exchange with scale building models. Fully funded for UK students. @UoSAeroAstro@UoSEngineering https://t.co/XetAVYQjeZ
