Department: Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering (MIE)
Institution: University of Toronto

Prof Pierre Sullivan obtained his BSME (1988) and MSME (1991) from Clarkson University and his PhD (1995)from Queen’s University at Kingston. His research interests span turbulence, flow phenomena, energy conservation focused on hot water distribution and high-temperature pressure sensing. He is the author of over 200 papers and part of a recent drop-sizing start-up. Since 2017, he has been an Associate Editor for the ASME Journal of Fluids Engineering.

He was awarded a Canadian Society of Mechanical Engineering Fellowship in 2012 and an American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Associate Fellowship in 2019. His lab site is the Turbulence Research Lab.
