Jørgen Røysland Aarnes

Jørgen Røysland Aarnes is a Research Fellow at the Department of Energy and Process Engineering, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). His research spans fluid dynamics, computational methods, and philosophy of science, with particular focus on turbulence, multiphase flows, and structural realism in Ernst Cassirer's philosophy. He completed his PhD in 2018 with a thesis on particle-laden flows impinging on cylinders.

Research Interests:

• Computational fluid dynamics (CFD), including high-order methods and overset grids
• Turbulent flows and free-surface vortex structures
• Particle-laden flow dynamics and impaction mechanisms
• Philosophy of science, structural realism, and symbolic forms

Recent Contributions: His 2025 work on free-surface vortex patterns and 2024 philosophical papers on Cassirer's symbolic forms demonstrate interdisciplinary expertise. He has developed computational tools like the Pencil Code for fluid simulations.

Awards: No scientific awards explicitly listed, though his work has been presented at major conferences including the European Turbulence Conference and European Geosciences Union meetings.

Advising & Grants: No explicit grants or advisees listed, though his PhD supervision experience is implied through his postdoctoral role.

Labs/Teams: Collaborates with the Pencil Code Collaboration and NTNU's energy engineering research groups.
