The Proceedings of the International Centre of Heat and Mass Transfer represent the publications of the Centre derived from International Seminars, International Schools, Symposia, Short Courses and Forums. These meetings, held since 1968, represent an extensive achievement, on an international scale, of the Centre and its mission. Covering all branches of heat and mass transfer, the Proceedings show the pursuit of excellence and the fostering of international cooperation. The coverage of the Proceedings extends from the basic fundamentals to the forefront research in the field of thermofluid engineering, in both industrial and academic, as well as computational fields.
