Conference: Support for 2022 Spring Technical Meeting of the Eastern States Section of The Combustion Institute

该奖项的目的是为燃烧研究所东部各州分部2022年春季技术会议提供支持，该会议将由佛罗里达州奥兰多的中佛罗里达大学主办，于2022年3月6日(星期日)晚上开始，2022年3月9日(星期三)中午结束。这次会议的更广泛的意义和重要性是为研究生、博士后、教职员工和其他研究人员提供一个论坛，以建立网络并分享这一研究领域的进展。这次会议是来自美国东海岸地区的学术界、工业界和政府的燃烧研究人员的聚会。会议的技术计划包括一系列全体讲座、口头演讲和信息社交聚会。许多论文将由学生提交，会议为学生提供了与其他机构的同龄人和教职员工建立联系的机会。会议的一个目标是让学生接触到最新的研究成果，并为职业发展提供机会。会议聚集了顶尖的专家，在几个领域进行了全体会议。会议将包括计算和数据密集型研究、爆震和超音速燃烧、诊断学、火灾研究、非均质燃烧/喷雾和液滴、内燃机、燃气轮机和火箭、层流火焰、新型能源转换技术、反应动力学和燃料、烟尘和纳米材料、湍流火焰等主题领域。本次会议的一个特别焦点是研究生和本科生：为这些学生提供展示和获得他们研究反馈的机会，并提高他们的口头陈述和技术写作技能。NSF的资助将用于向非本地学生发放旅行补助金，并为本地学生提供注册支持，以努力增加学生参与会议，特别是来自可能没有足够财力支持学生参加会议的代表不足的机构的学生。因此，会议将支持未来在燃烧和相关领域的劳动力培训。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

The objective of this award is to provide support for the 2022 Spring Technical Meeting of the Eastern States Section of the Combustion Institute will be hosted by the University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL, commencing the evening of Sunday, March 6, 2022, and concluding at noon on Wednesday, March 9, 2022. The broader significance and importance of this meeting is providing a forum for graduate students, postdoctoral students, faculty and other researchers to network and share progress in this area of research. This conference is a gathering of combustion researchers in academia, industry, and government from the East Coast region of the United States. The conference's technical program consists of a series of plenary lectures, contributed oral presentations, and information social gatherings. Many of the papers will be presented by students and the meeting is an opportunity for students to network with their peers and faculty from other institutions. A goal of the meeting is to expose students to the latest research and offer opportunity for career development. The conference brings together leading experts to give plenary talks in several areas. Sessions will include the topic areas of Computationally and Data Intensive Research, Detonations and Supersonic Combustion, Diagnostics, Fire Research, Heterogeneous Combustion/Spray and Droplets, IC Engines, Gas Turbines, and Rockets, Laminar Flames, Novel Energy Conversion Techniques, Reaction Kinetics and Fuels, Soot and Nanomaterials, Turbulent Flames. A particular focus of this conference is on graduate and undergraduate students: providing an opportunity for these students to present and get feedback on their research and enhancing their oral presentation and technical writing skills. The support from NSF will be used to award travel grants to non-local students and registration support for local students in an effort to increase student participation at the meeting, particularly students from underrepresented institutions that may not have the financial means to fully support student travel to conferences. Hence the conference will support the training of future workforce in combustion and related field.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.
