About
Jae Wook Kim is a Professor of Aerodynamics & Aeroacoustics in the Department of Aeronautics & Astronautics. He is also a member of Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre (UTC) for Propulsion Systems Noise within ISVR (Institute of Sound & Vibration Research). He is an internationally leading expert in high-fidelity numerical simulations for canonical problems in unsteady aerodynamics and aeroacoustics. One of his notable achievements is the development of CANARD (Compressible Aerodynamics & Aeroacoustics Research coDe) which is a high-order wavenumber-optimised DNS/LES solver that offers efficient simulations of compressible flows and sound waves by using massively parallel supercomputers. CANARD has produced high-quality research outputs that are published in top-class journals over the last decade or so. He was one of the key contributors to the Computational Aeroacoustics Workshop series organised by NASA between 1995 and 2004. His previous work on aeroacoustic mechanisms of undulated aerofoils has attracted many researchers worldwide to form a research community working on the topic for various applications (giving a keynote lecture at Lorentz Workshop on Airfoil Serration Technology in 2016). His research has been supported by EPSRC, EU Horizon 2020, Innovate UK, Rolls-Royce, Airbus, Vestas and AWE. He is a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society (FRAeS), a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA) and a member of the UK Turbulence Consortium.
You can update this in Pure (opens in a new tab). Select ‘Edit profile’. Under the heading and then ‘Curriculum and research description’, select ‘Add profile information’. In the dropdown menu, select - ‘About’.
Write about yourself in the third person. Aim for 100 to 150 words covering the main points about who you are and what you currently do. Clear, simple language is best. You can include specialist or technical terms.
You’ll be able to add details about your research, publications, career and academic history to other sections of your staff profile.
