Research fields
The research conducted at EMC2 focuses primarily on issues raised by the production and use
of energies of all kinds. Research is organised around three major areas-combustion, out-ofbalance
plasmas, physics of transfers-and eight major research themes. Research in applied
mathematics is conducted in a cross-disciplinary fashion.
COMBUSTION (C)
- Theme C-1: Combustion dynamics, instabilities and control
- Theme C-2: Turbulent combustion: modelling and experiments
- Theme C-3: Fundamental mechanisms and diagnostics
- Theme C-4: Numerical analysis and high-performance methods for the simulation of multiscale problems
NON-EQUILIBRIUM PLASMAS (P)
- Theme P-1: Fundamental mechanisms
TRANSFER PHYSICS (T)
- Theme T-1: Radiation and heat transfer in gas and plasma
- Theme T-2: Radiative properties and transfer in dense media
- Theme T-3: Transfers in porous media
CROSS-DISCIPLINARY ACTIVITIES

Applications
At the centre of the energy challenges of the coming decades, the laboratory's research activities revolve
around several domains of application: combustion dynamics (gas phase or biphasic) and active control,
radiative transfer, radiation-natural convection interactions (transfers and instabilities), radiationcombustion
coupling, cold plasmas, etc. This fundamental research combines physical, numerical
and experimental approaches with, in many cases, specific direction provided by technological issues
encountered in industry.
