Coordinated Experimental and Numerical Studies of AutomotiveMultiphase Convective Transport Phenomena: A Ford Motor Company-Michigan State University Collaboration

CTS-9710956密歇根州立大学约翰·J·麦格拉思摘要这是首席调查员(PI)和福特汽车公司合作研究的目标提案。拟议工作的主题是发展分析雾化和除雾问题的能力。这位少年派计划在即将到来的假期中度过秋季学期，在福特和密歇根州立大学(MSU)进行协调的数值和实验项目。在密歇根州立大学进行的实验将为检验和改进福特的内部计算机软件提供数据，该软件用于模拟有凝结的强迫对流。福特和密歇根州立大学已承诺投入资源，在密歇根州立大学开发实验设施。

CTS-9710956 John J. McGrath Michigan State University ABSTRACT This is a GOALI proposal for collaborative research between the Principal Investigator (PI) and Ford Motor Company. The theme of the proposed work centers on developing a capability to analyze fogging and defogging problems. The PI plans to spend the fall semester of his upcoming sabbatical leave to conduct a coordinated numerical and experimental program at Ford and at Michigan State University (MSU). Experiments performed at MSU will provide data for examining and improving Ford's in-house computer software for simulating forced convection with condensation. Ford and MSU have committed resources to develop the experimental facility at MSU.
