The National Science Foundation Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems awarded a $271,015 Project Grant to Princeton University from December 2021 through November 2024. The grant supports collaborative research to probe cavitation inception in dielectric liquids with sub-nanosecond precision under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041). Specifically, the funding enables Princeton University researchers to investigate how bubbles form and collapse in non-conducting liquids like oils at extremely fast timescales less than a billionth of a second. Insights from this research could improve industrial processes that rely on precise cavitation control, such as cleaning or water disinfection. The NSF Engineering program aims to advance innovation in engineering research and education critical to U.S. economic strength and quality of life.
