Description
The Thermal Transport Processes program supports engineering research projects that advance thermal transport phenomena by developing new fundamental knowledge or integrating existing knowledge in thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat and mass transfer. The program seeks transformative projects that improve understanding, predictability, and application of thermal transport processes, with a focus on fundamental knowledge and potential applications. Research combining analytical, experimental, and numerical efforts is encouraged, especially collaborative and interdisciplinary proposals. Priority areas include convection, thermodynamics, biological heat transport, nanoscale transport, climate change solutions, quantum technology, and AI/machine learning in thermal sciences.
