Elegant Solutions to Complex Problems

Dr. Gary Flandro - Chief Engineer

Dr. Gary Flandro is one of the leading experts in combustion instability and has been researching this challenging problem for over 40 years.  Dr. Flandro’s recent breakthrough in combustion instability analysis (basis of UCDS Model) has provided an unprecedented capability to accurately predict the stability of steady flow combustion devices.  This stability prediction capability is expected to revolutionize the way combustion devices are developed.  As a professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering, Dr. Flandro has taught a broad range of engineering classes, including graduate classes in propulsion and combustion instability.  Early in his career, Dr. Flandro gained notoriety with his discovery of the Grand Tour opportunity leading to the successful first and second Voyager explorations.
