The 35th International Combustion Symposium, the premier conference on combustion science and application held on August 3–8 in San Francisco, was a resounding success thanks to Sandia’s Combustion Research Facility (CRF). More than 1,500 researchers gathered from around the world to discuss the latest innovations in understanding and predicting combustion-related phenomena, approximately 250 more than…
CRF researcher Rob Barlow co-chaired the 34th International Combustion Symposium with Frederique Battin-Leclerc from CNRS, France and Kaoru Maruta from Tohoku University, Japan. The symposium, which was attended by a strong contingent of CRF staff, was held in Warsaw, Poland from July 29 through August 3, 2012 and is a leading meeting for the combustion community. Fellow…
Gaurav Bansal, post-doc with Jackie Chen Gaurav‘s research was supported by the Combustion Energy Frontier Research Center. He worked on direct numerical simulation (DNS) of homogeneous charge compression ignition combustion with di-methyl ether, an oxygenated fuel, DNS of pulsating flame instabilities, and isometric mapping to identify reduced parameterizations in combustion. Gaurav has accepted a position…
