项目摘要

9731204 Bejan This award supports the participation of twelve US engineers in a US-South Africa Workshop on Energy and Environment, to be held in Durban, South Africa, in June 1998. The co-organizers are Professor Adrian Bejan, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Duke University, Professor Peter Vadasz, Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Durban-Westville, Durban and Professor Detlev G. Kroger, Department of Mechanical Engineering, University of Stellenbosch. The focus of the workshop is on thermal sciences, heat transfer technologies, and environmental phenomena associated with energy flows and installations. The purpose of the workshop is to promote scientific collaboration between the two countries by exploring opportunities for joint research in specific topics of high priority to the scientific community. Among the topics of discussion are engineering thermodynamics and refrigeration, energy engineering, and heat transfer augmentation. In the environmental area, the two major topics are the environmental impact of energy systems, and convection in porous media. South Africa is the world leader in the commercial production of synthetic liquid fuel (converted from coal) for motor vehicles. South Africa also has the world's largest installed capacity of dry cooling towers. These and other areas of technological leadership will be discussed by the South African participants. This award is supported jointly by the Division of Chemical and Transport Systems and the Division of International Programs.

小行星9731204 该奖项资助12名美国工程师参加将于1998年6月在南非德班举行的美国-南非能源与环境讲习班。协办单位是杜克大学机械工程系Adrian Bejan教授、德班的德班-韦斯特维尔大学机械工程系Peter Vadasz教授和Detlev G.克罗格，机械工程系，斯泰伦博斯大学。研讨会的重点是热科学，传热技术，以及与能源流动和安装相关的环境现象。研讨会的目的是通过探讨在科学界高度优先的具体专题方面开展联合研究的机会，促进两国之间的科学合作。其中讨论的主题是工程热力学和制冷，能源工程和传热增强。在环境领域，两大主题是能源系统对环境的影响和多孔介质中的对流。南非是世界领先的汽车合成液体燃料（由煤转化）的商业生产。南非还拥有世界上最大的干式冷却塔装机容量。南非与会者将讨论这些和其他技术领导领域。该奖项由化学和运输系统司和国际项目司共同支持。
