Institute of Aerodynamics and Gas Dynamics

The Institute

With about 80 employees, the IAG deals with research on fluid mechanics mainly associated with air vehicles and wind turbines. For this purpose, the institute operates various experimental test facilities and applies numerical simulation methods, some of which are developed in-house.
