The 4th International Symposium of Thermal-Fluid Dynamics (ISTFD 2023) will be delivered in-person and virtually in Nanjing, China on 27-29 July 2023, providing the opportunity of online presentation for the people who cannot travel for any reason. Attendees will be able to connect with researchers from across the globe and network in-person or virtually. The registration fee for virtual participation is reduced.

Thermal-Fluid Dynamics is the fundamental to a wide range of engineering subjects such as energy, power, environment, energy saving and storage, renewable energy, aerospace, astronautics, combined heating, cooling and power technology, nuclear energy, hydrogen energy, automotive, mechanical engineering, emerging and interdisciplinary subjects such as zero carbon technologies, micro- and nano-fluidics, advanced thermal processes and others. It plays a key role in the development and breakthrough of scientific theories, innovative technologies and revolution of industry and human society systems.

Following the great success of ISTFD 2019 held in Xi’an, China, ISTFD 2021 held in Beijing, China and ISTFD 2022 held in Xi’an, China, ISTFD 2023 will be held in Nanjing, China. The symposium will include plenary lectures, keynotes and technical sessions including, but not limited to, the topics listed below:
Aerodynamics
Multiphase Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer
Combustion
Particle, Bubble and Drop Dynamics
Spray and Mixing
Cavitation and Cavitating Flow
Experimental Methods/Techniques
Computation Methods
Microscale and Nanoscale Fluid Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer
Fluid Flow, Heat and Mass Transfer in Sustainable Technologies
Thermal Management in Emerging Technologies
Heat Transfer Enhancement and Process Intensification
Interdisciplinary Research
Artificial intelligence in Thermal-Fluid Dynamics
Engineering Application Research

A few best oral and poster presentation awards will be given with certificate, and special issues of selected papers from the symposium will be published in SCI index journals after peer review.
