KCETA Seminar with Prof. Dr. Felix Sharipov

→ Europe/Berlin
KIT Campus North, Building 401, Room 410
Description

Vacuum Science and Technology – Rarified gas dynamics

Prof. Dr. Felix Sharipov (Federal University of Paraná)

Abstract

Prof. Dr. Felix Sharipov is the world-wide leading expert in rarified gas dynamics. We have been able to win him over to give a three days course on vacuum science and technology. The program of the course will cover topics from basics of rarified gas dynamics to specific phenomena of different flow regimes. Wie will start with the definition and calculation of parameters like molecular fee path, rarefaction etc. and the definition of the flow regimes. When these things are clear, the flow regime specific effects like the velocity slip, temperature jump and thermal creep are discussed. I addition we will talk about gas surface interactions. On the last day, we will learn how to model gas flows with the Direct Simulation Monte Carlo method (DSMC).

Please register until May 1, 2024.

The course will be held at Campus North, Bldg. 401, seminar room 410.

If you have to cancel your participation after registration, please modify your registration or send an email to Raquel Lujan.

Please note that you must have attended the entire seminar to be added to your KSETA Transcript.
