INFORMATIVO ABCM Nº 126/08 – 7th World Conference on Experimental Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics

ExHFT-7 7th World Conference on Experimental Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics
28 June – 03 July 2009, Krakow, Poland

The World Conferences on Experimental Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics have been taking place since 1988, a full twenty years. Following successful conferences in Dubrovnik (1988, 1991), Honolulu (1993), Brussels (1997), Thessaloniki (2001), and Matsushima (2005) the seventh World Conference on Experimental Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics (ExHFT-7) will be held in Krakow, Poland from 28 June – 03 July 2009.

ExHFT-7 is being organized under the auspices of the Assembly of World Conferences on Experimental Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics. The goal of this conference is to provide a forum for the exposure and exchange of ideas, methods and results in heat transfer, fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. Papers on all aspects of these research areas, from fundamental and applied to novel experimental techniques and innovative applications are welcome.

Conference topics include, but are not limited to:

Fundamentals

Heat and Mass Transfer, Fluid Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Measurement Techniques, Interdisciplinary Areas in Heat and Fluid Flow, Reaction and Combustion, and Turbulence

Applications

Aerospace Technology, Advanced Energy Systems, Advanced Environmental Systems, Biotechnology and Medical Systems, Cryogenics, Education, Fuel Cell Systems, Interactive Computational and Experimental Methodologies, Manufacturing Processes, Material Processing, Micro Electronic Equipment, Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems, Miniaturized Systems for Chemistry and Life Sciences, and Nanotechnology

Within the general subjects of this conference three mini-symposia are organized:

* Biological Systems
* Fuel Cell Systems
* Micro- and Nano-scale Systems

Call for Papers

Please mark the conference dates in your agenda. A “First Announcement and Call for Papers” including instructions for preparing an extended abstract will be sent out in October 2008. At that time, it will be possible to download the abstract submission template from the conference website:
