Are you currently looking for research assistants? Yes
Number of Research Assistants Needed 2
Relevant Research Assistant Major(s) Engineering
Project Location: On FSU Main Campus
If the project location is off campus, does the research assistant(s) need to provide their own transportation?
Please select the choice that most accurately describes your expectations for the research assistant(s): In-person
Approximately how many hours a week would the research assistant(s) need to work? 5-10

Overall Research Project Description As power electronics and computing systems progress, there is an increased need to advance the cooling systems that allow them to operate. This project will investigate nature inspired cooling solutions for thermal management. The student(s) will develop and test cooling solutions that use flow patterns that bring beneficial performance in terms of pressure drop and temperatures and thus permit the operation of demanding systems. It is anticipated that there will be opportunities to expand knowledge of CAD, 3D Printing, Instrumentation and Data Acquisition systems.
Research Tasks Literature review
Designs and Drawings
3D printing
Experiment setup
Data Collection
Publication
Skills that research assistant(s) may need: Some knowledge of CAD is desirable
Mentoring Philosophy We intend to provide a learning environment in the context of relevant engineering challenges. Our expectation is that the student(s) will be dedicated, responsible and enthusiastic.
