The Institute of Fluid-Flow Machinery of the Polish Academy of Sciences in Gdańsk conducts advanced research supporting science and industry in the field of the operating principles, design, and construction of machines used for energy conversion in flows, such as steam and gas turbines, microturbines, wind turbines, water turbines, pumps, jet engines, compressors, and fans.
Basic and applied research is carried out by 19 research teams grouped within five scientific divisions. The main areas of research include fluid mechanics, multiphase flows, thermodynamics and heat transfer, combustion, plasma physics, laser techniques, nanomaterials, machine mechanics, smart structures mechanics, technical diagnostics and structural health monitoring, tribology, and aeroelasticity.
The Institute also provides research and development services related to practical engineering challenges, machine and device design, as well as technical assessments and expert evaluations.
