Convective Heat Transfer

Michel FAVRE-MARINET is a professor emeritus at Grenoble Institute of Technology, where he has taught courses in convective heat transfer during many years. His research activities were focused on turbulence, microfluidics and heat transfer. He published about eighty papers in journals or in international conferences. Sedat TARDU is an associate professor at the University J. Fourier-Grenoble where he is teaching fluid dynamics, turbulence, heat transfer and dynamical systems. His main research areas include, wall turbulence in canonical and non-canonical flows, active and passive control of the turbulent drag and microfluidics. He published about two hundred papers in peer reviewed journals and international conferences.
