ECoMMFiT was created in the year 2000 as a research group of the Universitat Rovira i Virgili (URV). It is a multidisciplinary group although most of its researchers belong to the area of Fluid Mechanics of the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the URV. ECoMMFiT is member of the European Research Community on Flow, Turbulence and Combustion (ERCOFTAC) and of the Research Center in Engineering of Materials and Micro/NanoSystmes (EMaS)
The main objective of ECoMMFiT is to advance in the knowledge of the structure of flows and their effect on the heat and mass transfer processes in problems with fundamental, industrial and environmental interest, using experimental, computational and analytical tools
The group has extensive experience in computational fluid mechanics (CFD) using both commercial and in-house developed codes and in the design, construction and study of scale models for experimental analysis. Furthermore, one of the strengths of the group is related with the application of analytical techniques to identify processes, structures and/or the most important parameters of a given problem
