ABSTRACTNational Science FoundationProposal Number: CTS-0616554Principal Investigator: Vafai, KambizAffiliation: University of California-RiversideProposal Title: Second International Conference on Porous Media and its Applications in Science, Engineering, and IndustryThis award will provide partial funding for the Second International Conference on Porous Media and its Applications in Science, Engineering, and Industry scheduled for June 18-22, 2007 in Kauai, Hawaii. The first Conference on Porous Media and its Applications in Science, Engineering and Industry was held in 1996 in Kona, Hawaii. It was partly supported by NSF and was attended by an international contingent of researchers working in the porous media field. The upcoming conference, to be held in Kauai, Hawaii on June 18-22, 2007, will build on the Kona conference with emphasis on currently active areas.The conference has significant Intellectual Merit because porous media flow and transport occur in a wide range of applications in contemporary technology and is a topic with many unanswered questions. These applications include, but are not restricted to, areas such as geothermal engineering, building thermal insulation, chemical catalytic reactors, packed cryogenic microsphere insulation, petroleum reservoirs, direct contact heat exchangers, coal combustors, nuclear waste repositories, heat pipe technology, and bio transport. Packed beds of particulate solids have applications in chemical and metallurgical engineering involving such systems as catalytic and chromatographic reactors, packed absorption and distillation towers, ion exchange columns, packed filters, pebble-type heat exchanger, petroleum reservoirs, and geothermal reservoirs. The conference will emphasize emerging areas such as biotransport in porous media.The funds from NSF will broadly impact the U.S. technical community because they will be utilized primarily to offset the travel costs for US participants. About 40% of the project funds will go to young faculty and graduate students, with the balance going to more senior invited speakers and committee members. The conference outcomes will be broadly disseminated by including papers and keynotes in conference proceedings, and publishing some of the outstanding papers from the conference in a special issue of the Journal of Porous Media.

摘要美国国家科学基金会提案号：cct -0616554首席研究员：Vafai， KambizAffiliation：加州大学河滨分校提案题目：第二届多孔介质及其在科学、工程和工业中的应用国际会议该奖项将为第二届多孔介质及其在科学、工程和工业中的应用国际会议提供部分资金，该会议定于2007年6月18日至22日在夏威夷考艾岛举行。首届多孔介质及其在科学、工程和工业中的应用会议于1996年在夏威夷科纳举行。它得到了美国国家科学基金会的部分支持，并由在多孔介质领域工作的国际研究人员组成。即将于2007年6月18日至22日在夏威夷考艾岛举行的会议将以科纳会议为基础，重点放在目前活跃的领域。多孔介质的流动和输运在当代技术中有着广泛的应用，是一个有许多未解之谜的话题，因此本次会议具有重要的学术价值。这些应用包括但不限于地热工程、建筑隔热、化学催化反应器、填充低温微球隔热、油藏、直接接触热交换器、燃煤燃烧器、核废料储存库、热管技术和生物运输等领域。颗粒固体填充床在化学和冶金工程中有应用，包括催化和色谱反应器、填充吸收和蒸馏塔、离子交换柱、填充过滤器、卵石式热交换器、油藏和地热油藏等系统。会议将强调新兴领域，如多孔介质中的生物运输。来自NSF的资金将广泛影响美国技术界，因为它们将主要用于抵消美国参与者的差旅费。大约40%的项目资金将拨给年轻的教师和研究生，其余的将拨给更资深的受邀演讲者和委员会成员。会议成果将广泛传播，包括会议论文集中的论文和主题演讲，并在多孔介质杂志的特刊上发表会议的一些优秀论文。
