Gasturbines and Thermoacoustics
The lecture "Gasturbines and Thermoacoustics" takes place in the winter semester and consists of a mixture of academic lectures (8 lectures, 3 hours each) and invited talks (12 invited talks from a total of 4 speakers, 3 hours each) from experts from the gas turbine industry .
Registration is not required.
The lecture notes will be provided on the corresponding ISIS website. The required password will be announced in the first block or can be requested at the responsible project leaders (see contact below).
