The Dakota Prairie Modeling and Simulation Lab (DPMSL) at South Dakota State University (SDSU) aims to bridge industry and academia by offering cutting-edge modeling and simulation expertise. This initiative will improve product and system design, advance engineering research and enhance educational opportunities. Our key objectives include:
Supporting South Dakota industries by modeling and simulating both current and future design challenges.
Strengthening research and educational programs throughout the state.
Involving undergraduate and graduate students in hands-on engineering research.
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) performed at SDSU High-Performance Computing (HPC) on Roaring Thunder (RT) and Innovator
Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of two impinging jets in crossflow [1]
Large Eddy Simulation of sprayer nozzle jet [3]
DNS Autoignition of hydrogen/air diffusion flame [2]
Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of Mach 2 flame holder cavity [2]&
Dr. Jeffrey Doom's interests are in computational fluid dynamics, combustion, multi-phase flows, numerical analysis, high-performance parallel computing and heat transfer which pertain to energy/power systems.
