'''Portonovo S. Ayyaswamy ''' (born March 21, 1942) is an Indian-born-American [[mechanical engineer]],<ref name="AMWS 1986">''American Men and Women of Science: The physical and biological sciences.'' R.R. Bowker Company 1986. p. 220; 1992; 2008.</ref> the Asa Whitney Professor of Dynamical Engineering at the [[University of Pennsylvania]], [[Philadelphia, USA]],<ref name = "UPENN"/> and inventor.<br />
<br />
He is known for his work on phase-change heat/mass transfer with droplets and bubbles, multi-phase flows, buoyancy-driven transport, and ionized arc-plasma transport with applications in condensation, combustion, microelectronic packaging, and micro-/macro-biological systems.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.upenn.edu/almanac/volumes/v54/n01/hot.html#a |title=University of Pennsylvania Almanac, 2007 |publisher=Upenn.edu |access-date=January 16, 2012}}</ref> He is the recipient of the 2014 [[Max Jakob Memorial Award]].<br />

== Biography ==<br />
=== Youth, education and academic career ===<br />
Ayyaswamy was born in [[Bangalore, India]] in 1942, and became a US citizen in 1975.<ref name="AMWS 1986"/> He earned his B.E. in 1962 from [[University of Mysore]], India. Next he obtained his M.S. in 1965, and his M.E. in 1967, both from [[Columbia University]]. In 1971 he obtained his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from the [[University of California, Los Angeles]].<br />
<br />
From 1971–1973 he was a post-doctoral scholar at [[University of California, Los Angeles]], where he conducted research on capillary flows in grooved surfaces, large scale safety of nuclear reactors and bounding theories in turbulence. He then joined the faculty of the [[University of Pennsylvania]] late 1974 as assistant professor of mechanical engineering, and rose through the ranks and now is the Asa Whitney Professor of Mechanical Engineering.<ref name = "EDUCATION">{{cite web|url=http://www.imaps.org/journal/1999/Q3/sripada.pdf |title=front_cover.p65 |access-date=January 16, 2012}}</ref><ref name = "CV"/><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.upenn.edu/almanac/v21pdf/n12/111274.pdf |title=University of Pennsylvania Almanac, 1974 |access-date=January 16, 2012}}</ref><br />
