About Daniel Rosner

Dr. Daniel E. Rosner is Professor and formerly Chairman (1984-1987,1993-1996) of the Department of Chemical Engineering at Yale University, where he also holds a joint appointment in the Department of  Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science. He is founder and Director of the Yale High Temperature Chemical Reaction Engineering (HTCRE) Laboratory and  engineering consultant to many corporations and consortia (which have included ALCOA, Babcock & Wilcox, Columbian Chemicals, duPont, EPRI, EXXON, GE, Guardian Industries, Dresser-Rand, IFPRI, Pfaudler, Praxair, RERI, SCM-Chemicals and Union Carbide). His research activities include fine particle technology, phase transformations, convective energy and species transport, interfacial chemical reactions, gas dynamics,  and combustion------subjects on which he has published over 280 papers and an award-winning book, entitled: Transport Processes in Chemically Reacting Flow Systems (Butterworths, 3d Printing, 1990; reprinted (587p Paperback with Supplements), 2000, by DOVER Publications). He joined the Yale University engineering faculty in 1969 after 11 years of industrial research experience, having completed his undergraduate degree (BS-Mechanical Engineering; summa cum laude) at City College of New York and PhD (Aeronautical Engineering(Area: Chemical Propulsion)) at Princeton University, where he was a Guggenheim Fellow. In his academic career, Dr. Rosner has directed the PhD-dissertation research of 23 graduate students, of which fully 18 have been in the general research area of particle technology. For his outstanding cumulative research contributions in the area of particle-in-gas suspensions, Dr. Rosner was named winner of the 2011 AIChE/DuPont Particle Technology Forum Award, and in 1999, winner of the D. Sinclair research award of the Amer. Assoc. Aerosol Research.  He has received an Honorary Dr. of Sciences from UNED-Madrid (2002), and in 2005, was named L.W. Jones Jr.  Prof. of Chemical Engineering (an Endowed Chair) at Yale, and elected member of the Connecticut Academy of Science and Engineering.
 
2019 marked 61 years of Dr. Rosner’s archival publications in the broad area of transport processes in multiphase chemically reacting flow systems. Now Research Prof.(2017-2020) at Yale/SEAS, his contributions total over 280 papers in ca. 56 different engineering/applied science journals, with AIChE J., Chem Eng. Sci, I&EC-Res, Aerosol Science & Technology, and the J. Aerosol Science being prominent among them. Some forty of these contributions have been cited over 40 times (approx.  “h-index”) and the cumulative citation count for Prof Rosner’s papers, including his abovementioned award-winning textbook-treatise, is now well over 4000.
