Predicting pressure losses in aeronautical fuel injectors

This is a 3-year programme, funded by Conseil Régional d'Aquitaine (call 2014) and two small-size companies, AD Industrie (Gurmençon, France) and GDTECH ( Bordes, France). A one-year post-doc [YM] started in May 2015. The objective is to investigate the possibility of using advanced RANS or hybrid RANS-LES approaches to better predict the pressure losses in aeronautical fuel nozzles.
