The Eighth International Temperature Symposium
October 21-28, 2002, Chicago, IL, USA
by Dean Ripple
Since 1919, approximately once every 10 years, theInternational Temperature Symposia have provided aforum for the presentation and publication of work
related to the measurement and control of temperature,with topics ranging from fundamental research on temperature scales to practical measurement or control solutions in a variety of fields. Continuing a tradition of
joint sponsorship between the National Institute ofStandards and Technology (NIST) and professional societies, the 2002 Symposium was cosponsored by NIST
and the Instrumentation, Systems, and Automation Society (ISA). Organized in conjunction with ISA Expo
2002, a comprehensive exposition of advanced measurement and control technology, the 8th International
Temperature Symposium was held in Chicago, from
October 21 to 24, 2002. Over 210 presentations weredelivered by scientists from 32 countries on five continents.

with numerous personal anecdotes, with characteristic
intelligence and wit.
The eighty years since the first Temperature Symposium have seen an increasing maturity in our abilities
to both measure and control temperature in a wide variety of environments. What then is new in thermometry? Here is a sample from the Symposium, whose
Proceedings are to be published as Volume Seven of
Temperature: Its Measurement and Control in Scienceand Industry by the American Institute of Physics:• Studies of the uncertainties in calibration and use ofa wide variety of thermometer types,• Novel thermometers, based on such techniques asfiber optics or miniature wireless circuits,• Development and characterization of thermocouple

and resistance thermometers for high-temperatureapplications,• Commercialization of fixed-point apparatus,• Development of high-temperature eutectic fixed
points, for application to high-temperature radiation thermometry,• Development and characterization of ever more sophisticated radiation thermometers and sources,• Theoretical and experimental studies of the uncertainties of and instrumental corrections for radiation thermometers,

Highlighting the importance of interaction between
the industry, standards development, and basic research, Hratch Semerjian of NIST delivered the Keynote Address on “Temperature Metrology and Its Impact on Industry.”
Participants celebrated at an evening banquet atHarry Caray’s Restaurant. Past editor-in-chief Jim
Schooley delivered an after-dinner speech on “The End
of Classical Gas Thermometry,” in which he conveyed
the challenges and triumphs of gas thermometry, along

Report of the 6thASME-JSME Thermal Engineering Joint Conference (AJTEC-2003)
March 16-20, 2003, Hawaii, USA
by Shigefumi Nishio
The 6th ASME-JSME Thermal Engineering Joint Conference (AJTEC-2003) was held on March 16 to 20,
2003, in Hawaii Island, Hawaii. The American Societyof Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME) have co-developed a successful series of joint conferences on thermal
engineering at four-yearly intervals. The previous conferences in this series were held in: Honolulu, Hawaii(1983 and 1987); Reno, Nevada (1991); Maui, Hawaii(1995); and San Diego, California (1999).
The 21st century may be symbolized by the phraseof “integration and collaboration.” In the new century,
thermal engineers should make continued efforts to attain a better understanding of fundamental phenomenain thermal and energy systems. At the same time, wemust increase our efforts to integrate thermal engineering in more complex systems involving other disciplines,
and broaden our perspective to include an ever-widening range of time scales (from ultra rapid to long term
phenomena) and length scales (from nanoscale to global). Such efforts require our will to challenge new technologies and collaborate with people working in otherdisciplines. The 21st century is welcoming such directions because the new century is facing some issues
which can only be overcome by collaboration.
To provide a forum of for the interchange of such
new ideas and the presentation of the latest work in thefield, the conference covered the following fundamental
and applied topics in thermal engineering.
 Thermal Engineering in Topical Areas; Heat transfer
Transfer and Transport Phenomena in Micro/

Nanoscale Systems, Heat and Mass Transfer Issues
in Biotechnology, Thermal Engineering in Electronic
Equipment and Information Technology, ThermalEngineering in New Energy Systems, Thermal Aspects of Environmental Engineering and Technology, Thermal Engineering in Manufacturing, Material Processing and Recycling Thermal Engineering in Mechanical and Energy Systems; Energy Systems and Equipment, Combustion
Systems, Thermal Engineering in Cryogenic Systems, Thermal Engineering in Space Systems, Heat
Transfer Equipment and Thermal Devices
 Fundamentals in Thermal Engineering; Thermodynamics and Thermal Properties, Heat Conduction,
Thermal Radiation, Convective Heat and Mass
Transfer, Turbulent Phenomena, Heat Transfer andTransport Phenomena in Multiphase Systems, Fireand Combustion Phenomena, Measurement and Diagnostics/Advances in Experimental Techniques,Computational Heat Transfer/Inverse Analysis andDesign in Thermal Systems
Throughout the conference, the following eight keynote papers and 376 general papers (118 from US, 189

First International Conference on Microchannels and Minichannels Report
April 24-25, 2003, New York, USA
by Hisashi UMEKAWAFirst International Conference on Microchannels and
Minichannels was held on April 24 to 25, 2003, inRochester, New York, USA. The conference chair was
Satish G Kandlikar (USA), and the conference co-chairs
were Gian Piero Celata (Italy), Shigefumi Nishio (Japan), Peter Stephan (Germany) and Bernard Thonon(France) .
The interest in these channels has been spurred byneeds in a number of applications during last five years.
This was well demonstrated by the fact that 125 papers were submitted, and 184 investigators participatedinto this conference in spite of SARS and postwar condition. The number of the head authors of each nationality is as follows; US•@42, Korea 13, China 11, Japan 11, Germany 9, France 8, Canada 4, Italy 4, Taiwan4, Hon-Kong 3, U.K.3, Norway 2, Russia 2, Israel
1, Malaysia 1, Poland 1 and Sweden 1. Unfortunately,
most of Chinese participants could not join to the conference owing to the visa problem, but the number ofthe participants among nationalities was kept even in agood balance. And as an indication of high interest inindustrial applications, participants from many fields
were seen.
The subjects classified by the conference committee are as follows: Boiling 25, Condensation 6, Fabrication 4, Fluidics 18, Heat Exchanger 14, Biological 4,
Single Phase 19, Single Phase liquid 6, Single Phase
numerical studies 7, Tribology 1 and Two Phase 17.
These papers were presented in three parallel sessions.
As the conclusion of this conference, a panel session
was held at the last day, and the status and problem inthis field were pointed out. Recently, so many MiniMicrochannel equipments were produced. Then somany experimental data were presented in this conference, but also a variety of theories were discussed. This
does not mean that some new theory and experimental
methods were presented, but most of the results werestill based on the common knowledge in ordinary meth--5-

ods and fact in Macrochnnels. In this sense, the reallynew knowledge and approaches will be indispensable.
During this conference, Prof. Yasunobu Fujita andProf. Masahiro Shoji were awarded from ASME Heat
Transfer Chapter Rochester Section for their valuable
contributions in heat transfer and celebrations of their
60th birthday.
The 2nd International Conference on Microchannels
and Minichannels will be held in Rochester in June
2004. The detail information of the next conference will
be found in web site in late June 2003. ( www.asme.org/
