Dr. Andrew Garmory is a Reader in Computational Fluid Dynamics in the Department of Aeronautical and Automotive Engineering at Loughborough University, having joined as Lecturer in Computational Fluid Dynamics in 2012. He holds an MEng (Hons) in Engineering from the University of Cambridge (2004) and a PhD titled 'Micromixing Effects in Atmospheric Reacting Flows' from the same university (2007). His career includes postdoctoral research associate positions at the University of Cambridge (2007-2009) and Cornell University (2010), as well as a role as Software Development Engineer specializing in Eulerian multiphase flows at CD-adapco (2010-2012). Garmory is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
Garmory's research specializes in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods for modern gas turbine flows, including combustion and reacting flows, multiphase flows such as fuel sprays and particle ingestion (e.g., ice or sand), and aeroacoustics from combustion instabilities, developed in collaboration with experimental work. He contributes to the EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Gas Turbine Aerodynamics, Rolls-Royce University Technology Centre in Combustion System Aerothermal Processes (since 2012), and UK Consortium on Turbulent Reacting Flows. He acts as a PhD examiner and referees for journals including Combustion and Flame, Flow Turbulence and Combustion, and Combustion Theory and Modelling. Funded projects include SILOET 2 Project 10 (TSB, 2013-2016), NaDIT (TSB, 2013-2016), and AMEL (EU Clean-Sky, 2015-2016). Key publications are Wetherell and Garmory (2024), 'The effect of film development on primary breakup in a prefilming airblast atomizer' (Journal of Engineering for Gas Turbines and Power); Soli et al. (2022), 'Effect of compressor unsteady wakes on a gas turbine combustor flow'; Patel, Garmory, and Passmore (2022), 'On the wake of an isolated rotating wheel' (Journal of Wind Engineering and Industrial Aerodynamics); Coombes et al. (2022), 'The influence of rotor downwash on spray distribution under a quadrotor unmanned aerial system' (Computers and Electronics in Agriculture); and Su, Garmory, and Carrotte (2019), 'On the acoustic response of a generic gas turbine fuel injector passage' (Journal of Sound and Vibration). He teaches Computational Fluid Dynamics, Aerodynamics, and Technical Computing.
