Shah, a research professor at the Rochester Institute of Technology, has more than 30 years experience in design, analysis and test simulation of compact heat exchangers and thermal systems. He has served on seven international journal editorial advisory boards and has published 19 books and more than 100 papers.
He received doctoral and master's degrees in mechanical engineering from Stanford University and a bachelor's degree from Gujarat University in India.
The lecture is sponsored by the UTSA College of Engineering and the San Antonio section of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME).
