Thermal Propulsion Systems Research Group, Department of Engineering Science, University of Oxford - 4th Sprays SIG.
UK Fluids Network SIG
UK Fluids Network SIG
The 'Sprays in engineering applications: modelling and experimental studies' Special Interest Group (SIG) aims to launch a new platform for the exchange of innovative ideas between UK-based research groups focused on the modelling and experimental study of sprays. The ultimate aim of the project is to develop a universal spray model for a wide range of engineering/medical applications.
The 4th Meeting of the UK Fluids Network SIG on Sprays was held at the University of Oxford on the 18th and 19th of September 2018. Here you will find copies of the presentations given on each of the two days. Where no presentation is available, please feel free to request a copy directly from the presenter on the link provided.
