Jenny

Professor Jenny leads the Jenny Research Group at ETH Zürich, specializing in turbulent reactive flows, rarefied gas kinetics, and biomedical fluid dynamics. Her work bridges fundamental research with industrial applications in energy systems and fluid mechanics.

• Develops advanced turbulence models (TDDM, hybrid LES/RANS) for multi-scale flows
• Pioneers data assimilation frameworks for RANS simulations using adjoint methods
• Advances particle-based stochastic algorithms for fractured porous media transport

Her recent publications emphasize adaptive time integration techniques, probabilistic modeling of non-linear transport phenomena, and optimized simulation tools for hydrogen storage systems. The group's methodological innovations focus on reducing computational costs while maintaining physical accuracy through novel regularization strategies. Key applications include combustion device optimization, high-pressure tank filling analysis, and fractured reservoir simulations.

Current projects integrate machine learning with traditional CFD methods to address challenges in droplet clustering, flame surface density propagation, and supersonic spray dynamics. The research framework spans from direct numerical simulations of fundamental flow physics to industrial-scale hybrid modeling implementations.
