Description:
Turbulence is still one of the key issues in tackling engineering flow problems. These problems are solved more and more by CFD analysis, the reliability of which depends strongly on the performance of the turbulence models employed. As in other fields of Science, in the rapidly developing discipline of turbulence, swift progress can be achieved only by keeping up to date with recent advances all over the world and by exchanging ideas with colleagues active in related fields. The objective of this conference, which can be regarded as the 5th in a series of successful ones held at Mediterranean locations, is two-fold: Firstly, to provide a detailed account of the status of turbulence research, with particular emphasis on industrial applications and requirements; and, secondly, to provide a forum where a critical mass of scientists with different backgrounds and interests (experimental/theoretical, academic/industrial) can exchange ideas and generally interact.

The Conference programme has been designed to cover most of the current topics of industrial interest, namely: eddy viscosity and second-order RANS models, direct and large-eddy simulations and deductions for RANS modelling; heat and mass transfer and chemically reacting flows; compressible flows, shock phenomena; two-phase flows; measurement and visualisation techniques; transition and effects of curvature, rotation and buoyancy on turbulence; turbulence control; Applications in aerospace engineering, turbomachinery and reciprocating engines, industrial aerodynamics and wind engineering, and selected chemical engineering problems.

Contributed papers and invited lectures will address the following topics:

Eddy-viscosity and second-order RANS models, Direct and large-eddy simulations and deductions for conventional modelling, Measurement and visualization techniques, Two-phase flows, Turbulence control, Transition and effects of curvature, rotation and buoyancy on turbulence, Heat and mass transfer and chemically reacting flows, Compressible flows, shock phenomena, Applications in aerospace engineering, turbomachinery and reciprocating engines, industrial aerodynamics and wind engineering, and selected chemical engineering problems.

The detailed conference programme will be posted here around April 2002. It is planned to have the following conference sessions in which roughly 85 contributed papers that will be accepted will be presented:

Turbulence modelling, Direct and large-eddy simulations, Application of turbulence models, Experimental techniques, Experimental studies, Transition, Turbulence control, Aerodynamic flows, Turbomachinery flows, Heat transfer, Combustion systems, Two-phase flows.
