Thermal Systems

Supports fundamental research in two major areas: (1) Thermal Transport and Thermal Processing and (2) Combustion and Thermal Plasmas. Projects should seek a basic understanding at the microscopic and macroscopic levels of thermal phenomena underlying the production of energy, synthesis and processing of materials, cooling and heating of equipment, and biological systems and the interaction of industrial processes with the environment. Higher priority goes to those projects that deal with problems on the cutting edge of technology while developing human resources in engineering.

    Target Date: no deadlines dates to this time.
