Features: This book is one of the Strategic Development Reports on Disciplines. This series of reports was meticulously organized and published by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, Division of Engineering and Materials Sciences, to continuously promote basic research in this field, focus on the forefront of international discipline development, address major demands for future national economic construction and social development, and concentrate on solving significant scientific and technological foundational issues in China's engineering and materials fields. The goal is to enhance the country's original innovation capacity. The writing of this book is based on the national interest and the overall discipline perspective, comprehensively considering international academic development trends and China's realities. It discusses the connotation, strategic status, and definitions of the engineering thermophysics and energy utilization discipline, as well as the detailed analysis of its branches, including: engineering thermodynamics, internal flow fluid mechanics, heat and mass transfer, combustion, multiphase flow, renewable energy, etc. The report examines the current research status, development trends, and scientific challenges in these fields both domestically and internationally. It further clarifies the short- and medium-term development directions and goals for China's engineering thermophysics and energy utilization research, proposing priority development directions, funding areas, and development strategies for the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan." This book can serve as a basis for the National Natural Science Foundation of China, Division of Engineering and Materials Sciences, to select priority fields for the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" in the engineering thermophysics and energy utilization discipline. It is also available for researchers, administrators, and professionals engaged in the study of engineering thermophysics and energy utilization, as well as for university teachers and graduate students as reference material.
