John Saylor
Education:
- Ph.D. Yale University (1993)
- M.Phil. Yale University (1993)
- M.S. University of Minnesota (1989)
- B.S. SUNY Buffalo (1986)
Research:
My research area is interfacial hydrodynamics and heat transfer. I focus primarily on air/water interfaces and surfactants. My current projects concern evaporation, heat transfer and gas exchange at the air/water interface, and the statistics of the temperature field at the air/water interface.
Teaching:
I am currently teaching the graduate course Convective Heat Transfer (ME 831) and the undergraduate course Thermodynamics (ME 303). See the "Teaching" link above for more details.

My research projects have included studies of:

IR imaging of water surfaces Droplet imaging Drop scavenging of pollutants
Capillary waves Rain Drop induced vortex rings
Drop dynamics Lightning Drop splashes
