Professor Barry Crittenden new Heat Transfer Society president

Professor Barry Crittenden has been elected President of the Heat Transfer Society.

The Heat Transfer Society aims to promote all aspects of heat transfer and associated equipment by enabling engineers, designers and researchers in any area of activity involving those aspects, to meet and discuss subjects of common interest.

Professor Crittenden was inaugurated as the Society’s president at the 2013 annual dinner held at the Grand Connaught Rooms in London earlier this month.

At the same annual dinner, Jonathan Harris, a Chem Eng graduate student supervised by Professor Crittenden, received the hts Award. Jonathan’s undergraduate work while at the University of Surrey addressed the prediction and analysis of fouling in a crude distillation preheat train and its impact on furnace firing cost.

The hts Award by the Heat Transfer Society recognises the involvement of university students in the increasingly important heat transfer industry.
