Nicolas Noiray receives Hiroshi Tsuji Award
Nicolas Noiray, Assistant Professor and Head of the Combustion and Acoustics for Power and Propulsion Systems Laboratory at the Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering at ETH Zurich, is honored with the Hiroshi Tsuji Early Career Researcher Award.
The annual Hiroshi Tsuji Early Career Researcher Award, launched in 2016, recognizes excellence in fundamental or applied combustion science research. Nicolas Noiray receives the award for his excellent research in combustion dynamics, thermoacoustic instabilities, and gas turbine combustion engineering.
Co-sponsored by Elsevier and The Combustion Institute, the award and prize of US $10,000 is annually bestowed upon an early career researcher who has advanced a specific field of research within four to ten years of completing a doctoral degree or equivalent. The award is named after Professor Hiroshi Tsuji, whose stable porous cylinder counterflow burner configuration has influenced fundamental studies and applications in laminar and turbulent combustion.
