Scope

The seventh triennial symposium, after Lisbon (1994), Delft (1997), Nagoya (2000), Antalya (2003), Dubrovnik (2006) and Rome (2009), will provide a new opportunity for scientists and engineers to present recent advances and to discuss current problems, future needs and prospects in the area of heat and mass transfer associated with turbulence.

Major topics and new trends will be introduced through several keynote lectures that will be presented by internationally recognized experts.

Topics of interest

• Experiments and theories which elucidate the role of turbulence in forced, natural and mixed convection
• New experimental techniques for turbulent flow and scalar transport measurements
• Numerical simulations / modelling of turbulence and heat and mass transfer: DNS/LES, hybrid RANS/LES, PDFs, (U)RANS
• Turbulent heat and mass transfer control and augmentation
• Unsteadiness and transients in turbulent heat and mass transfer
• Heat and mass transfer in compressible and high-speed flows
• Turbulence in two-phase flows, effects of turbulence in particulate, droplets and film heat and mass transfer
• Turbulence, heat and mass transfer in combustion and other reacting flows
• Environmental and geophysical turbulent transport phenomena
• Turbulence-related utilization of heat and mass transfer in new energy, process and environmental technologies
• Turbulence, heat and mass transfer in material processing, in MHD, and in special applications
