 Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

'The unprecedented requirements set by the dramatically evolving energy, environmental and climatic constraints mean that industry needs new turbulent and vortical flow concepts for new flow-technology solutions. The full potential and economic impact of radically new industrial flow concepts can only be realised with a step change (i) in the ways we generate and condition turbulent and vortical flows and (ii) in our understanding of turbulent flow dynamics and the consequent new predictive approaches. Fractal/multiscale-generated turbulent and vortical flows are a new family of flow concepts which I have recently pioneered and which hold the following double promise:

(1) as the basis for a raft of conceptually new technological flow solutions which can widely set entirely new industrial standards: this proposal focuses on energy-efficient yet effective mixing devices; low-power highly-enhanced heat exchangers; high-performance wings for UAVs, cars, wind turbines; and realistic wind-field design technologies for wind tunnel tests of tall structures such as supertall skyscrapers and wind turbines.

(2) As the key new family of turbulent flows which will allow hitherto impossible breakthroughs in our theory and modelling of fluid turbulence.

I propose to realise this double promise by a combined experimental-computational approach which will use cutting edge High Performance Computing (HPC) and high-fidelity simulations based on a new code which combines academic accuracy with industrial versatility and which is specifically designed to perform very efficient massively parallel computations on HPC systems. I will run these simulations in tandem with a complementary wide range of wind tunnel, water channel and other laboratory measurements in a two-way interaction between laboratory and computer experiments which will ensure validations and breadth of results.'
