Thermal-hydraulics

Thermal-hydraulics is a type of engineering that involves studying how water and heat connect or work together. It helps engineers identify the best ways to move heat around and make sure the temperature in areas like factories and power plants stays under control. For example, if something hot runs through a super long hose, engineers might use thermal-hydraulics to figure out how to cool the hose down so that it doesn't get too hot and cause a fire.
