Je-Chin Han is currently a university distinguished professor and Marcus Easterling Endowed chair professor at Texas A&M University. He earned a BS degree at National Taiwan University in 1970, an MS degree at Lehigh University in 1973, and a ScD at MIT in 1976, all in mechanical engineering. He has been working on turbine blade cooling, film cooling, and rotating coolant-passage heat transfer research for the past 40 years. He is the co-author of over 250 journal papers, lead author of the books: Gas Turbine Heat Transfer and Cooling Technology, Analytical Heat Transfer, and Experimental Methods in Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics. He has served as editor, associate editor, and honorary board member for eight heat transfer-related journals. He received the 2002 ASME Heat Transfer Memorial Award, the 2004 International Rotating Machinery Award, the 2004 AIAA Thermophysics Award, the 2013 ASME Heat Transfer Division 75th Anniversary Medal, the 2016 ASME IGTI Aircraft Engine Technology Award, and the 2016 ASME and AICHE Max Jakob Memorial Award. He is a fellow of ASME and AIAA and an Honorary Member of ASME.Lesley M. Wright is associate professor and Jana and Quentin A. Baker ’78 faculty fellow at Texas A&M University. Prior to joining Texas A&M, she was a member of the mechanical engineering faculty at Baylor University for ten years. She earned a BS in engineering in 2001 at Arkansas State University and an MS and a PhD in mechanical engineering at Texas A&M University in 2003 and 2006, respectively. Currently she is investigating enhanced convective cooling technology, including heat transfer enhancement for gas turbine cooling applications. This experimental research has led to the development of innovative cooling technology for both turbine blade film cooling and internal heat transfer enhancement. In addition, Dr. Wright continues to investigate the effect of rotation on the thermal performance of rotor blade cooling passages. Her research interests have also led to the development of novel experimental methods for the acquisition of detailed surface and flow measurements in highly turbulent flows. She has co-authored the book Experimental Methods in Heat Transfer and Fluid Mechanics and over 100 refereed journal and conference papers. She is a fellow of ASME.
