After 2016 and 2021, the Symposium on Thermoacoustics in Combustion (SoTiC) was held for the third time between 11 September and 14 September 2023. Directed by Nicolas Noiray, Bruno Schuermans, Mirko Bothien and Thomas Sattelmayer, the conference was hosted this year at ETH in Zurich. More than 120 participants from 15 countries attended the eight lectures of the invited speakers and the 60 high-quality scientific presentations. Matthew Yoko and Matthew P. Juniper received the Best Fundamental Paper Award for their paper "Data-driven modelling of thermoacoustic instability in a ducted conical flame". The paper "Systematic modulation of the FTF and its effect on thermoacoustic stability" by Eirik Æsøy, Jonas P. Moeck and James R. Dawson was awarded the Best Technical Paper Award.

As the conference was so tailored to the topic of thermoacoustics in the context of combustion, all members of the TFD group attended the conference. Six papers were submitted, which were presented with great success. Philip Bonnaire, Philipp Brokof, Marcel Désor, Alexander Eder and Dr. Grégoire Varillon shared their work with the participants of the SoTiC.

The next SoTiC will take place in 2025 at NTNU in Trondheim, Norway, under the leadership of James R. Dawson.
