TFAWS is a Thermal and Fluids Analysis Workshop designed to help the thermal and fluids analysts of the government, industry, and academia.
Why both novice and experienced analysts should attend:
- For novice analysts, it is an introduction to the tools that can be used to perform their duties.
- For the experienced analysts, it allows them to keep up-to-date with the latest technologies and gives them a forum for presenting their accomplishments in the field.
TFAWS Sponsors
TFAWS is sponsored by four technical discipline teams within the NASA Engineering Safety Center (NESC):
- Aerosciences Technical Discipline Team
- Environmental Control and Life Support Technical Discipline Team
- Thermal Control and Protection Technical Discipline Team
- Cryogenics Technical Discipline Team
Discipline-specific training courses, lectures, and more can be found at the NESC Academy Online – a great resource for learning more about lessons learned and best practices in your given discipline.
For those with access to the internal NASA network, you can learn more about the technical discipline team resources available to you and your peers at the NASA Engineering Network (NEN) portal.
