Heat Transfer

As per available reports about 100 journals, 162 Conferences, 30 workshops are presently dedicated exclusively to heat transfer and about 366282 articles are being published on the current trends in heat transfer. In terms of research annually, USA, India, Japan, Brazil and Canada are some of the leading countries where maximum studies related to heat transfer are being carried out. As reported in Nanotechnology on Boiling Heat Transfer for a Next-generation Cooling Technology, Nanotechnology has suggested a novel approach for the breakthrough of typical cooling technology especially on boiling heat transfer.
As a hot issue in heat transfer fields, the feasible methods based on nanoscale structure creations can be concretized with regard to the compatibility for the control of morphological surface roughness and consequential wettability characteristics. Those two principal factors, which are definitely confirmed to dominate physics on boiling heat transfer, are controlled by nanoscale surface treatment techniques and it finally results in innovative improvements to effectively dissipate thermal-load from hot or high heat generating components according to the roughened and the water-attractive characteristics. Densely distributed nanowires as well as hierarchical morphologies via nano-structures and wettability control techniques on local area will be briefly demonstrated regarding the effectiveness of surface manipulation and the improvement of cooling performances. Progressive research on structural robustness and stability would be required in aspect of reliable performance and life-time of actual applications.

Material Sciences & Engineering is one of the most highly interdisciplinary and dynamic engineering disciplines that aims to seek to interpret the fundamental relationships between the structure, properties, tribology, processing and performance of materials in order to synthesize new materials, develop improved processes for making materials and understand the role of materials in the functioning of biological organisms

The Journal of Material Sciences & Engineering is an academic journal – hosted by OMICS International – a pioneer in open access publishing–and is listed among the top 10 journals in heat transfer. Each year research scientists have noticed a rise in the number of congresses being held in this field. The Journal of Material Sciences & Engineering provides a unique platform to researchers and scientist to explore the advanced and latest research developments in the field of heat transfer, thus bridging the gap between researchers and young scientists. OMICS International – a pioneer in organizing international conferences Materials Science and Engineering 2014 is not only a gathering of professionals, but would be a platform to mix with young talent and renowned personals to provide new insights in areas such as Mining and metallurgy, Energy Materials etc. The objective of this meeting is to introduce an exchange between industries and academic organizations and knowledge transfer from research to industry.
