Proceedings of the United States-India Binational Workshop in Heat Transfer Engineering

摘要

A workshop supported by U.S. National Science Foundation and Indian Department of Science and Technology was held in India in December 1981 to identify research areas of mutual interest to the two countries, to foster a closer cooperation between heat transfer researchers in the two nations and to stimulate high quality collaborative research proposals. Seven U.S. delegates and ten Indian delegates agreed upon ten broad areas for research: coal conversion processes, heat recovery systems, alternative energy systems, conditioning of air, manufacturing processes, cryogenics, modeling of complex flows, multiphase systems, heat transfer augmentation, and combustion and high temperature systems. The research needs in these areas are summarized in the report.
