2 Laboratory and Research Topic

MOdelisation and Simulation of Turbulence (MOST) is one of the 9 research teams of the Laboratoire des Ecoulements Géophysiques et Industriels (L.E.G.I.) in Grenoble (France).

My Ph'D theses is about modelling turbulent unsteady swirling flow in draft tube (hydraulic machinery).

More information about my topic can be found there http://www2.ademe.fr/jsp/theses/these.jsp?num=1227&catid=15933 .... but in french :-)
