Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Mechanics

Sigmar Wittig mainly investigates Mechanics, Optics, Mach number, Heat transfer and Heat transfer coefficient. The Mechanics study combines topics in areas such as Combustor and Thermodynamics. His research in Optics intersects with topics in Shear, Inlet, Finite element method and Mass fraction.

His Mach number study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Turbine blade, Flow and Coolant. His study connects Film temperature and Heat transfer. He combines subjects such as Mechanical engineering, Heat sink, Plate heat exchanger, Reynolds number and Adiabatic process with his study of Heat transfer coefficient.

His most cited work include:

  • Adiabatic Wall Effectiveness Measurements of Film-Cooling Holes With Expanded Exits (222 citations)
  • Flowfield Measurements for Film-Cooling Holes With Expanded Exits (149 citations)
  • Free-Stream Turbulence Effects on Film Cooling With Shaped Holes (134 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Sigmar Wittig mostly deals with Mechanics, Heat transfer, Turbulence, Mechanical engineering and Combustor. In his study, Mach number is inextricably linked to Optics, which falls within the broad field of Mechanics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Airflow, Turbine blade and Nusselt number, Film temperature, Reynolds number.

His Turbulence research integrates issues from Laminar flow and Boundary layer. His research investigates the connection between Mechanical engineering and topics such as Ceramic that intersect with problems in Stress and Finite element method. Sigmar Wittig focuses mostly in the field of Combustor, narrowing it down to matters related to Combustion chamber and, in some cases, Two-phase flow.

His Heat transfer research includes elements of Tourbillon, Vortex, Kármán vortex street and Vortex shedding. His Thermodynamics research incorporates elements of Turbomachinery and Radiative transfer.

Between 2001 and 2009, his most popular works were:

  • Free-Stream Turbulence Effects on Film Cooling With Shaped Holes (134 citations)
  • Assessment of Various Film-Cooling Configurations Including Shaped and Compound Angle Holes Based on Large-Scale Experiments (78 citations)
  • Droplet evaporation modeling by the distillation curve model: accounting for kerosene fuel and elevated pressures (72 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Thermodynamics
  • Mechanical engineering
  • Mechanics

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Mechanics, Heat transfer coefficient, Turbulence, Coolant and Turbine. His Mechanics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inlet, Rotor and Thermodynamics. His work carried out in the field of Heat transfer coefficient brings together such families of science as Adiabatic process and Thermal conduction.

His Turbulence study which covers Engineering drawing that intersects with Laminar flow, Intermittency, Finite element method and Honeycomb structure. As a member of one scientific family, Sigmar Wittig mostly works in the field of Coolant, focusing on Thermal efficiency and, on occasion, Airflow, Thermocouple, High power output, Inlet temperature and Gas turbines. His research in Mach number focuses on subjects like Turbine blade, which are connected to Flow.
