The Molecular Heat Transfer Laboratory at the Institute of Fluid Science, Tohoku University, is seeking qualified candidates for the position of associate professor. The selected individual will engage in research and educational activities focused on the molecular-scale dynamics that dictate nanoscale flow, interfacial phenomena, and macro-scale thermal and fluid properties. This research will also explore potential applications in cutting-edge technological fields.
For further details, including how to apply, see here.
The Molecular Heat Transfer Laboratory is dedicated to the study of micro/nanoscale thermal and fluid phenomena, ranging from the molecular level to MEMS/NEMS scales, and is committed to exploring the potential applications of this research.
The Institute emphasizes the importance of analyzing thermal and fluid phenomena through molecular dynamics theory. This approach aids in understanding the fundamental mechanisms behind these phenomena, leading to the design of thermal and fluid processes critical to modern technologies. Furthermore, molecular-scale analysis is particularly valuable in extreme conditions where traditional macroscopic models, such as thermophysical properties and interface concepts, become inadequate.
