8th National Workshop on Research Methodology in Fluid Mechanics


Theme: Visualization of Fluid Flow and Temperature Distribution
(12-15 July, 2023)


**Workshop Brochure**

Aim and Scope

The objective of the 8th national workshop is:
  • To provide a practical experience and hands on training on various flow and temperature visualization techniques.

  • To train the engineering students, young faculty members, research scholars and industrial personnel on various advanced experimental techniques.

  • To serve as a platform for engineers/scholars/researchers working in the subject of thermal and fluid engineering to share opinions, experiences, best practises, and lessons gained.

  • To provide a systematic approach to developing an understanding of fluid mechanic's research.

  • To bring together experts and share the state of the art experimental methods in industrial R&D and fundamental research.

  • To offer a methodical approach to build an insight in developing various in-house experimental facilities and instrumentation for Thermofluids research.

Who Should Attend

The Workshop will be of interest to:
  • Engineering students to improve their fundamental understanding on Thermofluids engineering through practical approaches.

  • Faculty members, students, and researchers in academic institutes and research organizations who are involved in research activities pertaining to various thermal and fluid flow problems..

  • The workshop will also be of interest to researchers who are involved in various experimental measurements on Thermofluids engineering.
