Report of the International Conference on Jets, Wakes andSeparated Flows (ICJWSF-2005)
October 5-8, 2005, Mie, Japanby Toshihiko Shakouchi
research subjects in the field of fluid mechanics andengineering. This is because they look like simple flows
but include every important essence of fluid mechanics,
for example, free and wall boundary layers, turbulent
shear flows, eddy and large vortex structures, as well as
possessing stability and control. Recently, there has
been a particular interest in the coherent vortex
structures of jets, wakes, and separated flows, and theircontrol using various passive and active methods inorder to improve the efficiency of momentum, heat andmass transfer, mixing, and diffusion in the various fields
of industry, energy, and the environment.
We had invited 7 prominent speakers to give
following keynote lectures and have received 117
excellent papers in total.
Keynote Lectures:

The International Conference on Jets, wakes andSeparated Flows, the ICJWSF-2005, was held on
October 5-8, 2005 at Toba Hotel International, Tobashi, Mie, Japan.
This conference was originally prompted by theearlier successes of the symposiums and forums held at
the past JSME (Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers)and JSMF (Japanese Society for Mechanical Engineers)
meetings, and the 3rd and 4th ASME and JSME Joint
Fluids Engineering Conferences, which were held in San
Francisco in 1999 and in Honolulu in 2003. Moreover,
over the past three years we have had research groupmeetings about the “Fundamentals of Jet Flows andAdvanced Applications” at the JSME, FED (Fluid
Engineering Division). This conference was sponsoredby the JSME, JSMF, Mie University and othersocieties.
It goes without saying that free and wall boundedshear flows, particularly jets, wakes and separated flows
are not only interesting but are also very important

Fifth International Symposium on Advanced Fluid Information (AFI-2005)-IFS-JAXA Joint SymposiumOn Aerospace Science/Rarefied Gas/Plasma, and Biofluid Science/ Engineering
December 8-9, 2005, Institute of Fluid Science, Tohoku University,
Katahira 2-1-1, Aoba-ku, Sendai, Japanby Kenichi Nanbu
The term "Advanced Fluid Information" (AFI) was
created by the Institute of Fluid Science with theintention of signifying a paradigm shift in fluid
dynamics research (experimental, numerical, or
theoretical) such as a full use of distributed or vector
computational technologies.

Report on 18th National & 7th ISHMT-ASME HMTC 2006
January 4-6, 2006, IIT Guwahati, India
by Masaru Ishizuka
I attended, as one of the coordinating scientists forJapan, China and South-East Asian countries, the 18th
National and 7th ISHMT-ASME Heat and Mass
Transfer Conference which was held at IIT Guwahati,
INDIA, during 4-6 January 2006.
The ISHMT organized the first National Heat andMass Transfer Conference at the Indian Institute ofTechnology Madras in 1971 and subsequently theconference has been held once in every two years at
different places across the country. Since 1994,
ISHMT and the American Society of MechanicalEngineers (ASME) have been jointly organizing thisconference. The 18th National & 7th ISHMT-ASME
Heat and Mass Transfer Conference will be held at the
Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati.
This is the first visit to India and also to theconference. This conference was a very big one, which
had more than 500 leading researchers from academia,
R&D organizations and industries from 20 different
countries. A total of 365 research papers, including 2
plenary and 17 keynote papers, covering almost allareas of heat and mass transfer would be presented
during the conference. And before the conference, two
pre-conference programs (A Professional Development
Course on Fundamentals of Fuel Cell Components
and Systems and An International Workshop on
Treatment of Thermal Radiation in Heat Transfer
Problems, January 2-3, 2006, IIT Guwahati) also were
held.

I was very surprised and happy to see many familiar
Indian-Americans, who were born in India and now
live in USA. I had seen most of them in the conference
held in USA before. They are very active, therefore, itwould not be an exaggeration to say that they underpin
the development achieved by the heat and mass transfer
fields in USA Meanwhile, I felt lonely because only
two people from Japan were there including me.
Another person was Professor S. Maruyama for
Tohoku University who gave the keynote lecture on“Radiative heat transfer in nano to mega-scale systems”.
However, to my regret, I could not listen to his lecture.
While the onference committee had reserved various
hotels for our participants of the conference andtransports were available from the hotels to theconference venue and back, the bus for our staying
hotel was unpunctual and was often more than an hourlate.
During the trip to India, the biggest benefit was forme to experience a big difference of the toilet system
between Japan and India.

History of the Conference
The International Conference on Multiphase Flow (ICMF) first was held in TSUKUBA, Japan in 1991 and thesecond ICMF took place in KYOTO, Japan in 1995. During this conference it was decided to establish an
International Governing Board which takes care about the major aspects of the conference and decides about
the future locations. Due to the great importance of the field it was furthermore decided to hold the conference
every three years successively in Asia including Australia, Europe including Africa, Russia and the Near East
and America. Hence, ICMF 98 was held in LYON, France; ICMF 2001 in NEW ORLEANS, USA and ICMF
2004 in YOKOHAMA, Japan. In Yokohama the Governing Board decided to have the ICMF 2007 in LEIPZIG,
Germany.

Scope of the Conference
The conference will be devoted to all aspects of Multiphase Flow. Researchers from all over the world should
gather in order to introduce their recent advances in the field and thereby promote the exchange of new ideas,
results and techniques. The conference should be a key event in Multiphase Flow and support the advancementof science in this very important field. The major research areas relevant for the conference are:x Elementary processes for particles, droplets, bubbles and nano-particles (dispersed Multiphase Flows)x Interaction phenomena in dense dispersed multiphase flows (collision, agglomeration, coalescence)x Discontinuous multiphase flows (annular, slug, wavy and stratified flows, flow pattern regimes andinstabilities)
x Multiphase flows with phase change (boiling, evaporation and condensation, reactive flows)x Numerical methods for multiphase flows (Euler/Euler, Euler/Lagrange, DNS, LES, VOF, interface tracking,population balance, molecular modelling)x Instrumentation for multiphase flow analysis (holography, tomography, LDA, PDA, imaging techniques)x Applications (chemical engineering, biotechnology, nuclear engineering, combustion, automotive, nanotechnology, life science, environment)
