Abstract
The anisotropic collective flow is one of the key observables to study the properties of dense matter created in heavy-ion collisions. The performance of Multi-Purpose Detector (MPD) at NICA collider for directed and elliptic flow measurements is studied with Monte-Carlo simulations of heavy-ion collisions at energies = 4 - 11 GeV.
