Presidential Young Investigators Award: Aerosol Processes

这个总统青年研究者奖是为研究在气溶胶反应器的细颗粒生产的一般领域。它将讨论诸如颗粒前体气相动力学，与气溶胶反应器相关的传热和传质，以及包括凝固和烧结在内的气溶胶动力学等主题。这项研究将包括实验和理论建模。气溶胶反应器提供了一种很有前途的技术，用于生产尺寸、形状和化学成分可控的精细电力。它应该为陶瓷、光波导和超导体等高科技材料做出贡献。

This Presidential Young Investigator Award is for research in the general area of aerosol reactors for fine particle production. It will address such topics as particle precursor gas phase kinetics, heat and mass transfer relevant to aerosol reactors, and aerosol dynamics including coagulation and sintering. The research will involve both experiment and theoretical modelling. Aerosol reactors offer a promising technology for producing fine powers of controlled size, shape and chemical composition. The should contribute to high tech materials including ceramics, optical wave guides, and superconductors.
