This NSF support will enable numerous students, early career engineers, and faculty members around the country to attend the 9th Thermal and Fluids Engineering Conference (TFEC), thereby leading to their significant intellectual benefit and professional development. The TFEC, organized by the American Society of Thermal and Fluids Engineers (ASTFE), is growing to be one of the leading platforms for presenting and discussing research advances in thermal and fluids engineering. Since its inception in 2015, TFEC has been organized in a progressively student-centric fashion by seeking firsthand input from the student attendees. In line with the students' top priority, the 9th TFEC will invite 14 plenary, keynote, and special talk speakers and facilitate their interaction with the students. This support will also enable the students to realize their second priority: networking and socialization.The field of thermal and fluids engineering impacts a vast spectrum of our industry and society. New advances in this field prompted by the attendance and collaborations at the conference through this support would help improve and optimize numerous applications of societal benefit such as gas and wind turbines, fuel cells, electric vehicles, electronic devices, freshwater production, power plants, industrial processes, and medicine among others. In addition, programming at the conference will aid in enhancing the professional development and career selection skills of both the current and the future workforce.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.

NSF的支持将使全国各地的众多学生，早期职业工程师和教职员工能够参加第九届热和流体工程会议（TFEC），从而使他们获得显着的智力优势和专业发展。TFEC由美国热与流体工程师协会（ASTFE）组织，正在发展成为展示和讨论热与流体工程研究进展的领先平台之一。自2015年成立以来，TFEC一直以学生为中心的方式组织，寻求学生与会者的第一手资料。为配合学生的优先考虑，第九届TFEC将邀请14位全体会议，主题演讲和特别演讲嘉宾，并促进他们与学生的互动。这种支持也将使学生实现他们的第二个优先事项：网络和社会化。热和流体工程领域影响我们的行业和社会的广泛范围。通过这种支持，会议的出席和合作所推动的这一领域的新进展将有助于改善和优化许多具有社会效益的应用，如燃气和风力涡轮机，燃料电池，电动汽车，电子设备，淡水生产，发电厂，工业流程和医药等。此外，在会议上的编程将有助于提高专业发展和职业选择技能的当前和未来的劳动力。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。
