Online registration is now closed for this event. Please register on-site.


The 39th AIAA Fluid Dynamics Conference includes papers covering all aspects of fluid dynamics, particularly those relevant to aerospace applications. Topics range from basic research and development to applied and advanced technology, including novel experimental and computational observations, interdisciplinary papers that bridge theoretical, experimental, and numerical approaches, and papers that provide innovative concepts and analyses, or especially new insight into flow physics. Sessions will be planned that include papers related to low and high speed flows, instability, transition, turbulence, vortex dynamics, and various aspects of flow control. The conference is collocated with several other conferences to enable close synergism and interaction between a broad range of research disciplines in fluid dynamics, and several joint sessions on topics of broad interest will be arranged.

Online registration is now closed for this event. Please register on-site.

The 1st Atmospheric and Space Environments (ASE) Conference of the AIAA is being co-sponsored by the Aviation, Range, and Aerospace Meteorology (ARAM) committee of the American Meteorological Society (AMS). The conference organizers welcome the participation of AIAA and AMS to foster further collaboration and increase the technical benefit for all attendees. Technical sessions will focus on the areas of: aircraft icing, aircraft wake vortex technology, atmospheric dynamic, aviation weather information, aviation capacity and efficiency, meteorological applications to aerospace operations, satellite and ground based measurement systems, environment standards, meteoroid and debris environment, space environment, on-orbit spacecraft–environmental interactions and natural environment definitions for space vehicle design and development. This joint conference also includes technical topics on: aviation and range weather, aerospace meteorology, related sensors and systems, environment impact and technology.

This conference will include panels discussing the key issues and accomplishments in topic areas described in the call for papers. Joint ASE/ARAM topics are also described in the call for papers. These topics will provide the focus for any joint ASE/ARAM sessions related to “Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen)” weather information. Those involved in NextGen environmental information and Air Traffic Management (ATM) weather integration efforts are strongly encouraged to participate.

The 27th Applied Aerodynamics Conference provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of technical material in diverse areas of theoretical, computational, and experimental applied aerodynamics. Conference sessions will focus on technical topics in the areas of wind-tunnel and flight-testing aerodynamics, unsteady aerodynamics, subsonic, transonic, supersonic, hypersonic aerodynamics, vortical/vortex flow applications, high angle of attack and high lift aerodynamics, boundary layer transition and drag prediction, low Reynolds Number aerodynamics, airfoil/wing/configuration aerodynamics, propeller/rotorcraft aerodynamics, weapon carriage and store separation aerodynamics, innovative aerodynamic concepts/designs, aerodynamic design methodologies, active flow control applications, unmanned aerial vehicle designs/testing, missile/projectile/guided-munitions aerodynamics, aerodynamic-structural dynamics interaction, icing effects on vehicle aerodynamics, application of artificial intelligence techniques to aero problems, and application of CFD methods to aerodynamic configurations validated against experimental data.

The conference is collocated with several other conferences to enable close synergism and interaction between a broad range of research disciplines in applied aerodynamics. Due to the recent sharp cost increases of aviation fuel, heightened concerns regarding global warming, the applied aerodynamics conference will include an invited session on “Aerodynamic Design Considerations for Environmentally-Friendly Aircraft, Alternative Fuels, and Improved Efficiency.”

41st AIAA Thermophysics Conference
The 41st AIAA Thermophysics Conference includes papers covering all aspects of Heat Transfer and Thermophysics. Focus is given to aerospace applications, but is not limited to this topic area. Topics range from basic research and development to applied and advanced technology, including novel experimental and computational observations, interdisciplinary papers that bridge theoretical and experimental approaches, and papers that provide innovative concepts and analyses. Twenty sessions and 120 papers are planned that include areas in aerothermodynamics, ablation, high speed flows, conduction, convection and radiation heat transfer, combustion, turbulent flows, multiphase flows, and electronic cooling, as well as measurements of thermophysical properties. Special sessions are planned for recent advances in the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) and the Crew Exploration Vehicle programs at NASA. Joint sessions with collocated conferences include microfluids and MSL aerodynamics. An invited presentation by the recipient of the Thermophysics Award will be given at the conference.


4th AIAA CFD Drag Prediction Workshop

4th AIAA CFD Drag Prediction Workshop
The 4th AIAA CFD Drag Prediction Workshop (DPW-IV) will be held in conjunction with the 27th Applied Aerodynamics Conference. This workshop will occur during the weekend prior to the conference on 20-21 June, 2009. The objectives of the Drag Prediction Workshop Series have been to assess the state-of-the-art of CFD as practical aerodynamic tools for aircraft force and moment prediction of industry relevant configurations, to provide an impartial forum for evaluating the effectiveness of current Navier-Stokes methods, and to identify areas needing additional research and development. The workshop is open to participants worldwide and is represented by industry, academia and government laboratories. Participation in the drag prediction studies is not required to attend the workshop; everyone is welcome. Open forums are included in the workshop to discuss the results and promote cross-pollination of best practices. The DPW-IV test cases are based on a new common research model (CRM). These blind test cases will include grid convergence studies and predictions of statically trimmed drag polars. In order to make a final assessment of the accuracy of the CFD predictions, high quality experimental data will be made available soon after the workshop as NASA plans to test the CRM in both the Langley National Transonic Facility (NTF) and the Ames 11-ft wind tunnels. Please join us and attend the workshop to help make DPW-IV another successful event in this on-going series of computational studies.
