International Travel Grant: 1991 International Seminar on Heat and Mass Transfer in Porous Media to be Held at Dubrovnik in Yogoslavia, 1991

多孔介质中的传递现象涉及地质学、水文学、化学工程、石油工程、干燥等几个具有相当实际意义的领域。国际热和质量传递中心正在南斯拉夫杜布罗夫尼克组织一次国际讨论会，并由教科文组织赞助，目的是介绍最新的研究成果，并为来自世界各地的多孔媒介科学家提供一个相互作用的论坛。为期一周的研讨会将邀请讲师，并由该领域公认的专家就基础和应用主题进行演讲。这项旅行资助将使PI能够根据他在多孔介质中的非达西对流方面的贡献进行受邀评审，该研究此前得到了美国国家科学基金会的支持。

Transfer phenomena in porous media are involved in several fields of considerable practical importance: geology, hydrology, chemical engineering, petroleum engineering, drying, etc. An international seminar in Dubrovnik, Yugoslavia is being organized by the International Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer and sponsored by UNESCO with the objective to present up-to-date research and to provide a forum for interaction by the porous media scientists from various parts of the world. The one-week seminar will feature invited lecturers and presentations by recognized experts in the field on both fundamental as well as applied topics. This travel grant will enable the PI to present an invited review based on his contributions on non-Darcy convection in porous media, research which was previously supported by the National Science Foundation.
