Biografisk notat

Dr. da Rosa taught the perennially popular Renewable Energy course at Stanford University for over 30 years. Former Chairman of the Brazilian National Research Council, Director of the Aeronautical Technical Center, and founder of Brazilian NASA, he also served as the CEO of a tech start-up, Chairman of the Board for a microprocessor manufacturer, and as a member of Siemens Corporation’s scientific advisory board. Juan C. Ordonez is a Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Florida State University, where he serves as Director of the Energy and Sustainability Center and as Principal Investigator on thermal management for the Center for Advanced Power Systems. His research lies within the fields of heat transfer and applied thermodynamics and their application to the design, modeling and optimization of energy systems. He obtained his Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering from Duke University working in the field of thermodynamic optimization and his M.S. degree in Energy Systems and a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from UPB – Colombia.
