Description
Heat Transfer 2010 is the eleventh conference in the well established series on Advanced Computational Methods and Experimental Measurements in Heat Transfer . The objective of the series is to provide a forum for presentation and discussion of advanced topics, new approaches and applications of advanced computational methods and experimental measurements to heat and mass transfer problems.
Research and development of computational methods for solving and understanding heat transfer problems continue to be important because heat transfer topics are commonly of a complex nature and different mechanisms such as heat conduction, convection, turbulence, thermal radiation and phase change may occur simultaneously. Typically, applications are found in heat exchangers, gas turbine cooling, turbulent combustions and fires, electronics cooling, melting and solidification. Heat transfer has played a major role in new application fields such as sustainable development and the reduction of greenhouse gases as well as for micro- and nano-scale structures and bio-engineering.
