Presidential Young Investigators Award: Aerosol Processes

这一总统青年研究人员奖是为了表彰用于生产细颗粒的气溶胶反应堆的一般领域的研究。它将讨论与气溶胶反应器相关的颗粒前体气相动力学、热质传递以及气溶胶动力学(包括凝聚和烧结)等主题。这项研究将包括实验和理论建模。气溶胶反应器为生产尺寸、形状和化学成分可控的细微粉末提供了一种很有前途的技术。他们应该为包括陶瓷、光波导和超导体在内的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.
