CBET-0804972, KandlikarThis award partially supports the 6th International Conference on Nanochannels, Microchannels and Minichannels, which will be held at the Technische Universitaet in Darmstadt, Germany, on June 23 - 25, 2008. The purpose of this meeting is to continue this important series of international meetings that are focused on the emerging field of small-scale channel flow and transport processes.With respect to the intellectual merit of the conference, fluid flow and heat and mass transport in confined channels, ranging from millimeter-size channels down to nanometer-sized channels, is an increasingly important area of research. Pertinent applications include photonics, heat exchangers, micro turbines, and lab-on-a-chip devices. This series of meetings has brought together an interdisciplinary group of researchers, from around the world. The importance of this topic has been recognized by several major journals, including the ASME Journal of Heat Transfer, the AIP Journal of Biomicrofluidics, and Nanofluidics and Microfluidics, which have agreed to publish special volumes containing some of the conference papers, provided enough papers are accepted at the meeting.The broader impacts of the conference include an active engagement of undergraduate and graduate students. A novel Students? Forum will be organized and run by students at the meeting. In addition, a number of women and underrepresented minorities will take part in the meeting, and will receive partial financial support from this award. Given the international flavor and venue, all the participants will benefit from interactions with their colleagues from around the world.

该奖项部分支持将于2008年6月23-25日在德国达姆施塔特的理工学院举行的关于纳米通道、微通道和微通道的第六届国际会议。这次会议的目的是继续这一系列重要的国际会议，这些会议集中在新兴的小尺度水道流动和输送过程领域。鉴于会议的学术价值，从毫米级到纳米级的受限通道中的流体流动和热质传输是一个日益重要的研究领域。相关应用包括光子学、热交换器、微型涡轮机和芯片实验室设备。这一系列会议汇聚了来自世界各地的跨学科研究人员小组。这一主题的重要性已经得到了几个主要期刊的认可，包括ASME《传热学杂志》、《AIP生物微流体学杂志》和《纳米流体学和微流体学》，它们同意出版包含一些会议论文的专册，前提是会议接受了足够多的论文。会议的更广泛影响包括本科生和研究生的积极参与。新奇的学生？论坛由学生在会上组织和运营。此外，一些妇女和代表不足的少数群体将参加会议，并将获得该奖项的部分财政支持。鉴于国际氛围和场地，所有参与者都将从与来自世界各地的同事的互动中受益。
