This award supports cooperative research in the basic                           thermal design of heat exchangers by Ramesh Shah of                             General Motors and SUNY at Buffalo and Alberto                                  Pignotti of Techint Corporation and the University of                           Buenos Aires.  Realistic effects to be studied include                          variable heat transfer coefficients, various heat                               transfer areas, longitudinal heat conduction, number                            of baffles and the maldistribution of flow.  The                                results will lead to new efficient two-fluid exchanger                          configurations.                                                                                                                                                 Dr. Shah is a widely-experienced expert on heat                                 exchanger design procedures and current technology.  A                          graduate level textbook is in preparation.  Dr.                                 Pignotti has a strong background in mathematics and                             theoretical physics.  He will contribute innovative                             concepts and methods for solving complex heat                                   exchanger configurations.  The computer facilities of                           the two institutions complement each other as do the                            specialized capabilities of these two groups.  Thus                             the results of this collaboration will be                                       comprehensive in advancing heat exchanger technology                            and in contributing to the conservation of energy                               resources in both countries.
