Daniel E. Rosner



Daniel E. Rosner is named to
Llewellyn West Jones Jr. chair

Daniel E. Rosner, the newly designated Llewellyn West Jones Jr. Professor of Chemical Engineering, is internationally recognized for his research on convective energy and species transport, interfacial chemical reactions, fine particle technology and combustion, among other areas.

Rosner holds a joint appointment in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and is director of the Yale High Temperature Chemical Reaction Engineering Laboratory, which he founded in 1974. His other areas of interest include phase transformations, gas dynamics, nano-particle formation, morphological evolution, and novel diagnostic techniques for local particle concentrations and properties. In his current research on transport phenomena in reacting flows, Rosner is exploring the use of combustion to synthesize and process new materials, including nano-powders and high value-added coatings; the efficiency and materials compatibility issues in engineering equipment under extreme conditions, particularly under high temperatures; and the environmental consequences of combustion and materials synthesis/processing, especially the control of particulate matter.

He is the author of the award-winning book "Transport Processes in Chemically Reacting Flow Systems," a forthcoming book titled "Combustion for the Synthesis and Processing of Valuable Materials" and more than 250 scientific papers.

Rosner has been an engineering consultant to many corporations and consortia, including ALCOA, Columbian Chemicals, Exxon, General Electric, Dresser Rand, Praxair and Union Carbide.

A graduate of the City College of New York, Rosner earned his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in aeronautical engineering (chemical propulsion) from Princeton University, where he also was a Guggenheim Fellow. He joined the Yale faculty in 1969 after 11 years of industrial research experience. He chaired the Department of Chemical Engineering 1984-1987 and 1993-1996.

Rosner's honors include the 1999 D. Sinclair Research Award of the American Association of Aerosol Research, an honorary degree from UNED-Madrid, an Engineering School Alumni Career Achievement Award from the City College of New York and the American Society of Engineering Education's Meriam/Wiley Engineering Award for his book "Transport Processes in Chemically Reacting Flow Systems." He was elected a member of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering this year.
