Remarks from participants of previous Atomization and Sprays online Short Courses
“Thank you very much for this interesting course, it was very informative!”
“The lectures are great. Thanks for putting them together.”
“I would highly recommend it to my classmates if it continues next year, because it's really helpful.”
“It was such a wonderful experience for me to be a participant in this course. I am quite new to this field and found the course extremely helpful, particularly the discussion time.”
“It was a great experience. I learnt a lot through interactions.”
“I really enjoyed the course and It was the occasion for deepening my knowledge about atomization processes and about sprays which are mine principal research topic.”
“Thanks again for putting together such an enlightening course!”
“It was by far the most related training to my thesis topic and strongly helpful with regard to my professional and research perspectives.”
Course description
Fundamentals
The current understanding of atomization fundamentals are first addressed theoretically in terms of hydrodynamic instabilities of liquid jets and sheets – primary atomization. This is followed by considerations about the breakup of single droplets – secondary atomization.
These fundamentals are followed by topics on diagnostics, numerical simulations, drop/wall interactions and further advanced topics and applications. In a manufacturers’ session several vendors of diagnostic equipment related to atomization and sprays will make presentations and be available for discussions.
Who should attend?
This course is directed towards practicing engineers, researchers involved in R&D and the application of spray systems, and graduate students performing research on the subject of sprays and atomization. For those with little previous background, the course begins with fundamentals of atomization and proceeds through theoretical, experimental, numerical and application topics.
Course platform and delivery
Pre-recorded lectures will be provided using Webex, integrated with the Moodle learning management system. The lecturer will be available during and after the lecture and questions and discussions with lecturers will be moderated through the chat function during the lecture. All lecture slides are available for download and all lectures can be streamed from their time of airing until two weeks after the course closes.
Course fees
- Industry: 450 EUR
- Academia: 250 EUR
Course fees are VAT exempt according to article 132 (i) Council Directive 2006/112/EC.
The lectures will be available for streaming as of their time of airing and for the subsequent 24 hours, allowing those in different time zones or those unable to attend a particular lecture, to view the lecture at their convenience. The chat discussion during the lecture and discussion after the lecture with the lecturer will not be recorded and will only be available during the presentation.
Payment
We prefer payment via wire transfer (bank transfer). Payment via credit card (VISA and Master Card only) is possible upon request. Please contact us for the terms and conditions.
