The funding will support early-stage researchers (students, post docs and junior faculty) to attend the Fluidization XVII conference (May 21-25, 2023, Edinburgh, Scotland). Attendance at the conference will ensure continued U.S. competitiveness in the fundamental research and emerging applications of fluidization for novel fluidization technologies field. Over the past few decades, notable advances in the fundamental understanding of fluidized systems have been possible via a combination of careful experiments, simulations, and theory. Nonetheless, the understanding and accurate prediction of fluidized system is nowhere near its single-phase counterparts, in which software like computational fluid dynamics (CFD) solvers provide a reliable tool for design and scale-up. The objectives of this proposed effort include: (i) bringing together members of industry, academia and national laboratories to showcase different perspectives and approaches, as well as to encourage potential collaborations; (ii) encouraging active participation by graduate researchers and post docs who represent the future of the field; (iii) bringing scientists and engineers together to provide an inviting and inclusive atmosphere to openly discuss their disciplines and approaches, thereby motivating new collaborations and new lines of inquiry;, (iv) going beyond the technical content associated with new research, and bringing to the foreground content related to education, professional development, and diversity and inclusion; and (v) particular outreach to underrepresented groups in STEM at all levels – conference organizing committees, invited speakers, and participants. The NSF support will be provided to emerging scientists (students, postdocs, and junior faculty) and underrepresented groups to ensure a diverse audience.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该资金将支持早期研究人员（学生、博士后和初级教师）参加 Fluidization XVII 会议（2023 年 5 月 21 日至 25 日，苏格兰爱丁堡），出席会议将确保美国在基础研究和应用领域的持续竞争力。流化在新型流化技术领域的新兴应用在过去的几十年中，通过仔细的实验​​、模拟和理论的结合，对流化系统的基本理解已经取得了显着的进展。对流化系统的理解和准确预测远不及单相人员，其中计算流体动力学（CFD）求解器等软件为设计和放大提供了可靠的工具。这项工作的目标包括：（i）汇集工业界、学术界和国家实验室的成员，展示不同的观点和方法，并鼓励潜在的合作；(ii) 鼓励代表该领域未来的研究生研究人员和博士后的积极参与；(iii) 吸引科学家；和工程师一起提供一个诱人的和包容性的氛围，公开讨论他们的学科和方法，从而激发新的合作和新的探究方向；（iv）超越与新研究相关的技术内容，并将与教育、专业发展和多样性相关的内容带到前台(v) 对各级 STEM 中代表性不足的群体进行特别宣传——会议组织委员会、受邀演讲者和参与者 NSF 将向新兴科学家（学生、博士后和初级教师）和代表性不足的群体提供支持。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
