Fluid Mechanics and Fire Behaviour at UWaterloo
Fluid Mechanics and Fire Behaviour
Several research initiatives?in the Fluid Mechanics and Fire Behavior Group focus on experimental and analytical investigation into a broad class of fluid mechanics problems.
Current projects underway relate to measurements and modeling of complex turbulent shear flows, environmental flows and reacting turbulent flows. The detailed physics of these flows is studied using a combination of advanced experimental techniques and computational fluid dynamics.
Professor Elizabeth?Weckman, and Professor?C.?Devaud?study?Fire Research and Safety?in the state-of-the-art Fire Facility Labs at the University of Waterloo. Professors?Li,?Dongging?and Carolyn?Ren?conduct advanced research in?microfluidics?and are actively involved with research in?engineering.?Professor?F-S?Lien’s research involves Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and turbulence models for?3D?flows.?
