Chair of Mechanical Process Engineering

Romain Janodet’s research focuses on developing efficient numerical methods for the simulation of interfacial two-phase flows at all speed, both on cartesian and unstructured meshes. More specifically, the goal is to build a unified conservative pressure-based numerical framework for interfacial flows, of incompressible and compressible fluids at all speeds, applicable to compressible, incompressible, and compressible-incompressible flows.
