This award is to support the Workshop on New Frontiers of Thermal Transport to be held on March 9-10, 2020 in Orlando, Florida. Thermal transport processes are critical in many traditional and emerging engineering applications, ranging from energy, electronics and aerospace to manufacturing, food and health care. However, the scientific community is lacking in providing innovative thermal solutions in order to improve existing technologies or to address emerging challenges. Communications between industry and academia need to be strengthened so that the researchers can better target technology bottlenecks. This two-day workshop will bring together academicians, industry experts, researchers from national labs, and program managers from funding agencies to brainstorm and develop a shared vision and future opportunities for the community at large. Six focused panels will cover emerging challenges that will need to be resolved to enable future technological advancements. Subsequently, participants will convene in breakout sessions to explore future directions to address these roadblocks. Outcomes from these discussions will then be presented and a report will be disseminated to summarize major findings and recommend future research opportunities. This workshop will promote the societal impacts of academic research and advance the professional development opportunities for participants that are early in their career or are under-represented in engineering. This two-day workshop will bring together experts from various disciplines to identify critical challenges, advancements, and new directions in thermal transport research. Six panels on energy, advanced manufacturing, thermal management, aerospace, artificial intelligence, and health and sustainability will be included. The goal is to identify key research, development, and design needs and provide a guideline for future endeavors. The outcomes of this workshop will focus on the development of a roadmap that will define the needs for future generation of thermal transport process technologies, as well as documentations in archival review articles and a dedicated website. This workshop is expected to (i) promote the societal impacts of academic research, (ii) reinforce a scientific community of university-industry researchers who are active across disciplines and (iii) advance the professional development opportunities for early-career participants. Special attention will be paid to the inclusion of under-represented minorities and women both in invited speakers and in participants. The ultimate goal is the eventual development of solutions to address current and future thermal transport challenges in a range of critical industries.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项旨在支持2020年3月9日至10日在佛罗里达州奥兰多举行的热运输新领域的研讨会。在许多传统和新兴工程应用中，热运输过程至关重要，从能源，电子和航空航天到制造，食品和医疗保健。但是，科学界缺乏提供创新的热解决方案，以改善现有技术或应对新兴挑战。需要加强行业与学术界之间的沟通，以便研究人员可以更好地针对技术瓶颈。这个为期两天的研讨会将召集院士，行业专家，国家实验室的研究人员以及从资助机构进行集思广益的计划经理，并为整个社区建立共同的愿景和未来的机会。六个集中小组将涵盖新兴挑战，这些挑战将需要解决以实现未来的技术进步。随后，参与者将召集突破性会议，以探索未来的方向以解决这些障碍。然后将提出这些讨论的结果，并将分发报告以总结主要发现并建议未来的研究机会。该研讨会将促进学术研究的社会影响，并为参与者的职业生涯早期或工程领域的代表性不足促进专业发展机会。这个为期两天的研讨会将汇集来自各个学科的专家，以确定热运输研究中的关键挑战，进步和新方向。将包括六个有关能源，高级制造，热管理，航空航天，人工智能以及健康与可持续性的面板。目的是确定关键的研究，开发和设计需求，并为将来的努力提供指南。该研讨会的结果将集中在路线图的开发上，该路线图将定义未来一代热运输过程技术的需求，以及档案评论文章和专用网站的文档。预计该研讨会将（i）促进学术研究的社会影响，（ii）加强了一个学科研究人员的科学界，这些研究人员活跃于跨学科，（iii）促进早期职业参与者的专业发展机会。将特别注意包括被邀请的演讲者和参与者中代表性不足的少数民族和妇女。最终目标是最终开发解决方案，以应对一系列关键行业的当前和未来的热运输挑战。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并且使用基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准，被认为值得通过评估来获得支持。
