TFML in the USA: 76th APS DFD Annual Meeting, Washington DC

Dr. Jibu Tom Jose presented our work “Experimental examination of shock wave phenomena in ducts with abrupt area expansions” at the 76th Annual Meeting of the Division of Fluid Dynamics of the American Physical Society, held in Washington DC on 19–21 November 2023.

Due to the security situation in Israel, Yoav Gichon (the original speaker) and Prof. Omri Ram were unable to attend. Although presented by Dr. Jose, the experiments and analysis were mostly performed by our Ph.D. student Yoav, with the assistance of Dr. Jose and Dr. Evron, in the TFML shock tube facility using high-speed schlieren imaging.

Dr. Jose also presented “On the turbulence characteristics of axisymmetric pipe flow across varying cross section: an experimental investigation”. That talk was based on experiments performed by Gal Friedmann, Dvir Feld and Jibu Jose in the TFML round channel facility, using high-speed tomographic PIV and high-resolution stereo PIV.
