Partner Presentation: Aristotle University of Thessaloniki

The Laboratory of Fluid Mechanics and Turbomachinery (LFMT) at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH) brings extensive expertise in aeronautical engineering, with a focus on the design, development, and testing of novel aircraft propulsion components. In TorPropel, AUTH-LFMT is responsible for the aerodynamic and acoustic optimisation of the toroidal propeller design.

Their role includes the development of an advanced modelling pipeline, combining:

- Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)

- Novel optimisation methods

- Machine learning ML techniques

This contribution will be essential to ensuring high performance and low noise characteristics in the next generation of aerospace propulsion.
