The Experimental Thermo-Fluid-Dynamics research group, at the University of Naples Federico II, undertakes its main research in the fields of turbulent flows, two dimensional wakes, convective heat transfer, hypersonic flows, boundary layer transition detection and development of PIV and Tomo-PIV and Infrared thermography metrology. Such researches are carried out at the Laboratory of Gasdynamics.
The Experimental Thermo-Fluid-Dynamics research group has a wide knowledge of laser diagnostic techniques as PIV, Stereo-PIV and Tomo-PIV and of Infrared thermography technique applied to thermo-fluid-dynamics problems. Several high quality experimental equipment are available such as a time resolved Tomographic PIV system, a low speed Tomographic PIV system and state of art IR cameras (High speed MW and LW cameras). A low speed wind tunnel is also available.
Recent projects include studies of synthetic jets, fractal jets, development of the Tomo-PIV measurement technique, aerodynamic heating and thermal visualization in hypersonic flows, boundary layer diagnostics and transition detection and thermal measurements in investment casting.
The Experimental Thermo-Fluid-Dynamics research group has numerous collaborations with both national and international research institutes, industries and universities. A list of the main projects and partners is reported below.
