COMBUSTION SCIENCES FOR THE ENERGY TRANSITION: FUNDAMENTALS AND RECENT ADVANCES
Main information
The 19th edition of the French Combustion Thematic School will take place from June 2 to 8, 2024 at the IGESA center in Porquerolles. It is organized by the EM2C laboratory, CNRS, UPR 288, CentraleSupelec, Université Paris-Saclay.
Presentation
Sponsored by French section of the Combustion Institute and supported by CNRS, the aim of this thematic school is to maintain a community at the highest level of expertise in a field undergoing profound change. The abandonment of fossil fuels is leading us to revisit combustion modes and to deepen our knowledge in fields that are still little explored, based on the use of new fuels associated with new burners, or even new engines. That's why this new edition, in addition to the most recent disciplinary advances, will also focus on the role of combustion in the energy and environmental transition.
Themes
Scientific, societal and environmental issues, theoretical bases of combustion, chemical kinetics, pollutants, diagnostics, turbulent combustion, combustion instabilities, two-phase combustion, heat transfer, flame-wall, combustion in high-speed flows, combustion of biomass, H2, NH3, and metals, ...
Language
The various courses will include slides in English. Oral presentations will be given in either English or French (often in French).
Activities
The early afternoons will be free time, with several activities on offer for participants to enjoy the site.
