Conference on Modelling Fluid Flow (CMFF’18)

Date: 04/09/2018 - 07/09/2018

Location: Budapest, Hungary

CN2018-01

Organiser: PC ADA

Coordinators: Kristof, G.

ERCOFTAC Member: Gergely Kristof

CMFF is a historical international conference series, formerly known as Conference on Fluid Machinery, and held every fourth year in Budapest since 1959. The recent focus of the conference is the coexistence of and collaboration between numerical flow simulation and physical flow modelling using advanced measurement methods.

The success of CMFF'03 in 2003 (170 presenting authors from about 30 countries), coupled with the rapid development of fluid mechanics, encouraged the Conference Organizers to increase the frequency of the events to every third year. The subsequent events CMFF'06, CMFF’09, CMFF’12, and CMFF’15, held in 2006, 2009, 2012, as well as in 2015, maintained the level of participation and internationality of the previous conference.

The main thematic areas of the Conference Series are as follows, indicating strong links to the activity of ERCOFTAC. Each thematic area covers research, development, design, new applications and equipment, case studies and future trends with particular emphasis on the use of CFD and advanced measurement methods.

Atmospheric Flows
Biomedical Flows
Chemical and Process Engineering
Combustion and Heat Transfer
Environment Protection Problems
External Aerodynamics
