Professor Yogesh Jaluria recently presented two invited plenary talks at international conferences, which were held remotely due to the pandemic. The first one was at the 8th International Conference on Computational Heat Mass and Momentum Transfer (ICCHMT), Paris, May 18-19, 2021. The talk was entitled, “Optimization of Thermal System to Enhance Output and Reduce Energy Consumption and Environmental Effect.” The second talk was at the International Conference on Materials and Energy (ICOME), Metz, France, June 9-10, 2021. The title of the talk was “Chemical Vapor Deposition for the Fabrication of Thin Films in Advanced Materials Processing.” Both the talks were based on the recent work carried out by Professor Jaluria and his students. The talks were targeted at major challenges in thermal science and engineering. Therefore, they were very well received by the international audience and generated a lot of interest and discussion.
Professor Jaluria also became a Fellow of the American Society of Thermal and Fluids Engineers (ASTFE). He, along with Professor James Guo, joined a very selected group of society members who have been elevated to this high rank due to their achievements and contributions to the field.
