This is a multi-day event focused on numerical combustion.
The main goal of the 3rd Asia-Pacific Combustion Institute Summer School is to introduce the combustion and fire safety community to fundamental combustion problems, focusing on studies of diffusion flames and their connection to large-scale fires. This year’s school will emphasize the link between combustion theory and practical applications in both industrial settings and real fire scenarios, contributing to create and strengthen the links between different academic institutions and research groups focused in the Asia Pacific and South American areas.
Considering the nature of fires and flames, it has been long recognized that there is a gap between fire science and other disciplines within combustion. Particularly, the number of uncontrolled factors associated with fires have rendered many of the well-established techniques in combustion difficult to be applied. Therefore, the scientific direction of the APCISS-3 school aims to discuss and provide means to bridge this gap through the study of diffusion flames.
The Summer School is scheduled for 2-7 November 2025 in the coastal cities of Valparaíso - Viña del Mar. Workshops will be held at Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María.
