Partner institutions
Dresden, Germany · Single-bubble measurement
Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf
Its multiphase-flow group works on the experimental study of gas–liquid flows and on the optical techniques used to measure them — the bubble scale on which AURIGA builds its description of the flow.
Hamburg, Germany · Mass transfer
Institute of Multiphase Flows, TUHH
The institute works on multiphase reactors, on interfacial transport and on the experimental methods behind them, from single bubbles up to industrial equipment — the range of scales AURIGA covers with its own facilities.
Linz, Austria · Multi-scale modelling
Johannes Kepler University Linz
Work there covers the modelling of multi-phase flows across scales, and how small-scale physics is carried into simulations of large systems — the question AURIGA meets at the column scale.
Okinawa, Japan · Simulation of complex flows
Complex Fluids and Flows Unit, OIST
The unit works on the numerical simulation of complex and multiphase fluids — the same flows AURIGA approaches from the experimental side. The two groups work under a collaboration between the Complex Fluids and Flows Unit and the AURIGA group.
France · Industrial-scale CFD
IFP Energies Nouvelles
A French research and training institute working on energy and process technologies, including the simulation of reactors at industrial scale — the scale the project’s laboratory work is meant to inform.
