Thermal-Fluids Central is an online e-global center supported by
Global Digital Central on an "as is" basis to connect the global community
in thermal-fluids science and technology. It is a one-stop information resource for those working in industry,
academia, and research laboratories in all areas of thermal-fluids sciences and engineering--including thermal fluids, heat and mass transfer, thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, combustion, and multiphase systems.
Thermal-Fluids Central was founded on the idea that in the digital era the technical community
needs innovative tools and applications to find all relevant information through one website; including research,
educational, outreach, and professional activities. All materials presented in Thermal-Fluids Central--whether
submitted by the community or created by the founders--is free to view. There is also no charge for submitting materials
on the Thermal-Fluids Central website for any applications including books, journals, jobs, events, news, and encyclopedias.
Thermal-Fluids Central uses a ".org" domain to symbolize the relatively non-commercial nature, public service mission, and
non-corporate culture of
Global Digital Central.
Thermal-Fluids Central provides the following services:
- Thermal-FluidsPedia - A comprehensive reference for professionals and students requiring
