Computational Fluid Dynamics Book Wins ASCE State Of The Art Civil Engineering Award
The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) presented its 2020 State of the Art Civil Engineering Award to the editors of Computational Fluid Dynamics: Applications in Water, Wastewater and Stormwater Treatment, which ASCE published last year.
Among the contributors to the book was Sri Pathapati, Ph.D., Director-Research and Development for Mazzei Injector Company in Bakersfield, California, who wrote five of
the book's chapters including one on the all-important topic of CFD model verification and validation. As Mazzei's head of R&D, Pathapati leads the company's highly active CFD and product development program.
"We're very proud of Sri's contribution to the book and of the great recognition it has received, and we're equally proud of how he applies his expertise in CFD every day," said Angelo Mazzei, Chairman/CEO and founder of Mazzei Injector Company. "Driven by his skill and creativity, Sri's computational fluid dynamics modeling program has become an integral part of our product development and system design processes, tapping into the power of modeling to guide the design and placement of precision engineered products. Sri's work has improved the efficiency of our venturi injectors, pipeline flash reactors and mixing nozzles at every level, and he has helped customers around the world optimize their injection and mixing systems."
Sri is also the recipient of the 2013 Rudolph Hering medal from ASCE for his CFD work in environmental engineering.
Pathapati will be sharing his insights on CFD modeling in several presentations this summer, including a June 23rd webinar for the International Ozone Association's Pan-American Group and a presentation to the WateReuse California Virtual Conference on June 24.
