This project supports partial travel for 19 U.S. students and early career engineers/faculty to the 2nd Micro Flow and Interfacial Phenomena (μFIP) Conference. The conference, one of the premier annual events for researchers in the fields of transport phenomena, will be held in Irvine, CA, from June 20 to 23, 2022. The μFIP Conference provides a platform for researchers to exchange information and identify research needs in emerging areas of phase change, micro flows and interfacial phenomena, encompassing engineering, basic sciences, and bio-medical disciplines. Eight technical tracks in fundamentals, applications, and emerging innovations, as well as three panels on leadership, government funding, and students, are organized in the conference. This μFIP conference emphasizes on energy applications and promotes interdisciplinary research to address climate change and water-energy nexus. The in-person platform offered by the conference is expected to lead to interesting and fruitful technical conversations that are important and timely.Micro flows and interfacial phenomena affect a broad spectrum of the industry and life in general. Advances in this field enabled by the conference may help improve and optimize a large number of applications that benefit the society. Both fundamental and applied sciences will be disseminated, with academic, national lab, and industrial participation. It is expected that the conference will lead to novel, collaborative approaches for addressing fundamental and applied problems in phase change and single-phase heat transfer, single- and multi-phase flows, bio-chemical and bio-medical engineering, and microflow processes including microchannel flows and microscale surface phenomena. A special emphasis is on formal and informal exchanges of ideas between junior researchers and established researchers in a friendly environment, with a focus on advancing diversity, equity, and inclusion. Student networking events that consist of a student presentation session and a student panel will be organized to allow for ample interactions among the youngest generation of researchers. A special effort has been placed to promote gender parity amongst the conference organizing committee and invited speakers.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.

该项目支持19名美国学生和早期职业工程师/教师参加第二届微流和界面现象（μFIP）会议的部分旅行。该会议是运输现象领域研究人员的主要年度活动之一，将于2022年6月20日至23日在加利福尼亚州欧文市举行。μFIP会议为研究人员提供了一个平台，以交流信息并确定相变，微流和界面现象等新兴领域的研究需求，涵盖工程，基础科学和生物医学学科。会议组织了基础、应用和新兴创新方面的八个技术轨道，以及关于领导力、政府资助和学生的三个小组。本次μFIP会议强调能源应用，促进跨学科研究，以应对气候变化和水-能源关系。会议提供的面对面平台预计将带来有趣和富有成效的技术对话，这些对话是重要和及时的。微流和界面现象影响了整个行业和生活的广泛范围。会议所带来的这一领域的进步可能有助于改善和优化大量有益于社会的应用。基础科学和应用科学都将在学术界、国家实验室和工业界的参与下传播。预计会议将导致新的，合作的方法，解决基本和应用问题的相变和单相传热，单相和多相流，生物化学和生物医学工程，微流过程，包括微通道流动和微尺度表面现象。特别强调的是在一个友好的环境中，初级研究人员和既定的研究人员之间的思想正式和非正式交流，重点是推进多样性，公平和包容性。将组织学生网络活动，包括学生演讲会和学生小组，以便最年轻一代的研究人员之间进行充分的互动。该奖项反映了国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
