EUROTURBO 9 - Support to Ninth European Conference on Turbomachinery
Overview
Background & policy context:
The European Turbomachinery Conference (EUROTURBO) is the only scientific event in the EU covering in depth all fluid dynamics and thermodynamics aspects of turbo-machinery design and operation. EUROTURBO 9 is the ninth in a series of bi-annual conferences, started for the first time in Erlangen (Germany) in 1995. This conference will be of prime interest to researchers, design engineers, users of turbo-machinery components and to students being trained in presentation and discussion of their first scientific results.
Objectives:
The objectives of EUROTURBO 9 are to enhance excellence in this field, to address and improve the technological level and competitiveness of turbo-machinery design products and their operation as part of propulsion systems and energy conversion processes.
Methodology:
The conference is intended to be a primary driver for technology transfer across Europe in this field through the presentation of the latest developments and best practices. It will also enhance cross-fertilization between the aeronautical fields, found in the edge of turbo-machinery technology today and all other fields using turbo-machines.
The conference is an integrating element between the Western and the Eastern European countries. It is an additional mean to foster collaboration in turbo-machinery research at a European level. This conference is an ideal forum to relate and disseminate the results of research projects funded by the European Commission. The conference took place in Istanbul, March 2011.
