Constructal theory complements the analysis of thermodynamic systems by focusing on the flow configuration of the system, and on the relationship between configuration (design) and global performance. The design progress made in this emerging field is reviewed in a new book [1]. In this paper we outline our progress on developing flow architectures for a new class of smart materials: composites with vascular channels that provide volumetric flowing (bathing) and cooling.
