The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Mississippi State University (MSU) to develop novel heat exchangers for condensing solar power (CSP) applications. MSU would perform laboratory-based synthesis and characterization of metallic foams with the purpose of improving their heat transfer capabilities.
