Fluids Engineering Division
Fluids Engineering Division (FED) is involved in all areas of fluid mechanics, encompassing both fundamental as well as applications, to all types of devices, processes and machines involving fluid flow.
About
Honors & Awards
Society Awards
(Presented at Fluids Engineering Summer Meeting)
The highest award presented by the FED, the Fluids Engineering Award, is given for contributions to engineering that have been outstanding over a number of years. The deadline for nominations is August 30th.
The Division also sponsors the Freeman Scholar Program which selects a person of outstanding ability to review a major technical area of fluids engineering. The deadline for nominations is September 1st.
The society awards also recognize achievements in the fields of fluid mechanics and fluids engineering for which Division members are eligible.
Division Awards
(Presented at Fluids Engineering Summer Meeting)
The Lewis F. Moody Award and the Robert T. Knapp Award are presented for the most outstanding original papers dealing with the practice of fluids engineering and analytical or laboratory research respectively. Submit the pdf file of the paper to the Honors and Awards Committee Chair. The deadline for nominations is December 31st.

Upcoming FED Activities
The Fluids Engineering Division has reimagined its summer meeting. We can't wait to have you join us for the 2025 event in Philadelphi, PA.
FEDSM will focus on the integration of AI and machine learning in fluids engineering, with a strong emphasis on energy sustainability and industrial applications. We aim to highlight where fluid mechanics theory intersects with real-world, practical solutions. Take a look at the website by visiting https://event.asme.org/FEDSM.
