Director of the Cooling Technologies Research Center (CTRC), a graduated National Science Foundation Industry/University Cooperative Research Center that addresses pre-competitive, longer-term research and development issues in the area of high-performance heat removal from compact spaces. Dr. Weibel's research group explores methodologies for prediction and control of heat transport to enhance the performance and efficiency of thermal management technologies and energy transfer processes. He has been a key contributor to the development of transformative cooling technologies supported by the DARPA TGP (2008-2012), DARPA ICECool (2013-2017), NAVSEA NEEC (2016-2018), ONR NEPTUNE (2015-2021), SRC CHIRP (2019-), ARPA-E ASCEND (2021-), and ARPA-E COOLERCHIPS (2023-) programs, in addition to numerous sponsored research projects that transition these technologies to industry.
