U.S.-India Workshops for Catalyzing Research Collaborations in Connection with the 9th ASME-ISHMT Heat and Mass Transfer Conference, Mumbai, India, January 4-6, 2010.

0928110慢跑这个奖项提供支持，以促进美国和印度之间的合作研究在热科学和工程领域。 五个研讨会将在一起举行的9 thASME-ISHMT热质传递会议在印度理工学院，孟买，1月4日？2010年6月。 本次会议是印度热科学和工程界传播研究成果的首要场所。 美国机械工程师协会共同赞助了这次活动，以加强印度和美国热科学研究人员之间的互动。 五个专题领域的互动式讲习班被认为是两国当前研究重点突出的新兴领域。 这些是：电子学中的热设计和管理，生物系统中的热传输，核能和核过程热基能源的开发，燃料电池工程的最新进展，以及燃气涡轮机冷却和传热。 它们旨在促进关于下一代热挑战的讨论，并在共同感兴趣的领域开展新的双边研究合作。 对于美国参与者来说，这是一个获得印度当前研究重点，专业知识和设施的第一手知识的机会。 美国代表团包括8名高级科学家，4名博士后研究人员和3名研究生。 这些研讨会针对传热和传质的基本领域，预计将加强美印在未来热技术方面的合作，分享信息，建立机构桥梁，并促进所有参与者的教育和跨文化经验。 美国代表包括女性和代表性不足的群体成员，他们是早期职业教师，研究生或高级研究人员。 研讨会和会议的报告将通过一个网站传播，以便世界各地的传热研究人员能够获得这些信息。 在美国，印度会议和研讨会的结果将在下一次在美国举行的主要传热会议上向更多的听众报告。国际科学与工程办公室和化学、生物工程、环境和运输系统司为这次研讨会提供资金。

0928110Jog This award provides support to foster collaborative research between the U.S. and India in the areas of thermal science and engineering. Five workshops will be held in conjunction with the 9thASME-ISHMT Heat and Mass Transfer Conference at the Indian Institute of Technology, Mumbai, January 4?6th, 2010. This conference is the premier venue for disseminating research findings for India's thermal sciences and engineering community. The American Society of Mechanical Engineers co-sponsors this event to enhance interactions between Indian and US thermal science researchers. The interactive workshops in five topical areas are recognized as emerging areas with significant current research thrust in both countries. These are: Thermal Design and Management in Electronics, Thermal Transport in Biological Systems, Development of Nuclear Energy and Nuclear Process Heat Based Energy Resources, Recent Advances in Fuel Cell Engineering, and Gas Turbine Cooling and Heat Transfer. They are designed to promote discussion about the next-generation of thermal challenges and to seed new bilateral research collaborations in areas of mutual interest. For the US participants this is an opportunity to gain first-hand knowledge of the current research thrusts, expertise and facilities in India. The US delegation includes 8 senior scientists, 4 postdoctoral researchers, and 3 graduate students. The workshops, which target fundamental areas in heat and mass transfer, are expected to enhance US-India cooperation on future thermal technologies, share information and build institutional bridges, and promote educational and cross-cultural experiences for all participants. US delegates include women and members from under-represented groups who are early-career faculty, graduate students, or senior researchers. The report on the workshops and conference will be disseminated through a website so that heat transfer researchers worldwide will be able to access this information. In U.S., the results of the India conference and workshops will be reported to a larger audience at the next major Heat Transfer Conference held in the U.S. Funding for this workshop is provided by the Office of International Science and Engineering and the Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems.
