Thermal & Fluid Sciences Affiliates and Sponsors Conference
Stanford University
February 3th - 5th, 2010

The 2010 Thermal and Fluid Sciences Affiliates and Sponsors Conference to be held on the Stanford Campus, February 3-5, 2010. It will be an exciting conference presenting the latest work of the Stanford Thermal and Fluid Sciences program. The 2010 conference had over 100 participants, including Affiliates representatives, sponsors of research, and special guests, and the technical program was made up of more than 50 oral presentations and a poster session.

For the upcoming meeting, we expect a similarly comprehensive program with contributions in various areas of our research activities, including fluid mechanics, aero-acoustics, heat transfer, combustion modeling and diagnostics, processing and engineering of materials, microscale flow and heat transfer, and fuel cells. We will describe several new initiatives that are providing substantial growth in the research activities and new opportunities for industrial collaboration.

In addition to the oral presentations, we will once again have a poster session, which is intended for students and post-docs to present work in progress in a less formal atmosphere.

An important part of the meeting is discussions with the Stanford Thermal and Fluid Sciences faculty and research staff. We hope you will use this opportunity to renew your friendships with the faculty and research staff, and to meet some of our outstanding students. Personal meetings with faculty and students can be arranged and are encouraged. Please let us know if you would like us to make such arrangements.
