• Subject Area: Fluid Mechanics
• Term: from 2009 to 2018
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 90888150

In a collaborative research, the coordination of the main scientific activities has an important significance. In the second phase, we plan to organize again two research group meetings/per year as well as an international conference in order to assure a good scientific collaboration between the young researchers of our network. In addition, bi- and trilateral meetings among the graduate students are scheduled to exchange data and results between the three fundamental flows. ´The website will be maintained and updated, and the new data on the three basic turbulent flows (Rayleigh-Bénard convection, Taylor-Couette flow, pipe flow) generated during the next three years (2013-2015) should be further supplemented and improved on ERCOFTAC Database (Computational Fluid Dynamics and Turbulence Mechanics research group, University of Manchester).

• DFG Programme: Research Units
• Subproject of: FOR 1182: Transport and Structure Formation in Turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard, Taylor-Couette and Pipe Flows near Solid Walls
• Participating Persons: Professor Dr. Bruno Eckhardt (†); Professor Dr. Jörg Schumacher
