FLUID MECHANICS 101: FUNDAMENTALS OF COOLING AIRFLOW IN A DATA CENTER

[view session info]

Dr. Suhas V. Patankar is the founder and president of Innovative Research, Inc. For the last 25 years, he has also worked as a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Minnesota. His research activities include the development of computational techniques for fluid flow and heat transfer and their application to industrial problems. Suhas has authored or co-authored four books on the subject, published over 100 papers, advised 35 completed Ph.D. theses and lectured extensively in the USA and abroad.

Dr. Patankar's teaching and research contributions have been recognized by a number of awards. For excellence in teaching, he received the 1983 George Taylor Distinguished Teaching Award and the 1989-90 Morse-Alumni Award for Outstanding Contributions to Undergraduate Education. For his research contributions to computational heat transfer, he was given the 1991 ASME Heat Transfer Memorial Award, the 1997 Classic Paper Award, and the 2008 Max Jakob Award, which is considered to be the highest honor in the field of heat transfer.
