The National Science Foundation's Fluid Dynamics program is seeking grant proposals to support fundamental research aimed at gaining a deeper understanding of various fluid dynamics phenomena. Key research areas of interest include turbulence and transition, bio-fluid physics, non-Newtonian fluid mechanics, micro- and nano-fluidics, wind and ocean energy harvesting, and fluid-structure interactions. Proposals should address the novelty and potentially transformative nature of the proposed work, as well as its importance in terms of engineering science and potential impact on society and/or industry. The program encourages Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) proposals, and also considers proposals for conferences, workshops, supplements, Rapid Response Research (RAPID), and Early-concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) when appropriate. Proposals must be compliant with the NSF's Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide.

Award durations are typically five years, and funding amounts can vary, though recent NSF Engineering program awards have ranged from $250,000 to $650,000. The proposed research can be conducted at academic institutions, research organizations, and other eligible entities across the United States.
