National Thermal Engineer Day is a holiday observed annually on July 24th that celebrates thermal engineers and all they do for society. Thermal engineers are responsible for the planning and design of heating and cooling systems, often tasked with managing complex systems.

They work in various industries, from the automobile industry to urban infrastructure. Thermal engineering is also crucial to the design of almost any machine, and without it, these machines would be much less safe and efficient. Just another reason why people may want to observe this holiday.

The History of National Thermal Engineer Day

Advanced Thermal Solutions created this holiday in 2014. They wanted to create a day that recognized the commitment of thermal engineers and the importance of thermal engineering to many different industries.
