Rate My Professor Elizabeth Languri

Languri directs the Thermal and Energy Systems Laboratory (TESLab), focusing her research on thermal energy systems, heat transfer enhancement, nanofluids for electronics cooling, industrial energy efficiency, sustainable evaporation methods, phase change materials, and renewable energy applications. She has mentored numerous Ph.D., Master's, and undergraduate students, many of whom have advanced to positions at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, University of Alabama, and other institutions. Notable publications include "Nanodiamond nanofluid microstructural and thermo-electrical characterization" (2019), "Thermo-physical properties of diamond nanofluids: A review" (2018), "Experimental Study on Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop of In-House Synthesized Graphene Oxide Nanofluids" (2018), "Applications of nanofluids in condensing and evaporating systems" (2017), and "Exergy analysis of a shell-and-tube heat exchanger using graphene oxide nanofluids" (2016), accumulating over 1,800 citations. Her contributions have earned the Best Paper Award at the College of Engineering Eminence Awards Ceremony, and she leads projects in energy modeling, decarbonization, and manufacturing efficiency through centers like the Center for Energy Systems Research.
