Scope: The Pressure Gain Combustion Technical Committee seeks to advance the investigation, development, and application, of pressure gain combustion technologies for improving propulsion and power generation systems and achieving new mission capabilities. The PGC TC will do so through the mechanisms afforded by its position within the AIAA including: regular meetings to exchange open information, individual and coordinated conference activities with relevant TCs, channels for raising awareness such as position or status papers, and educational/outreach efforts such as short and web-based courses. The committee is made up of individuals from various disciplines and backgrounds, ranging from fundamental research to combustor design and the development of pressure-gain systems. This discussion forum is open to the public. You must log in to participate.
