The 16th International Symposium on Flow Visualization
June 24-27, 2014, Okinawa, Japanby Satoshi Someya
The 16th International Symposium on Flow
Visualization (ISFV16) was held at Okinawa
convention center (Fig.1) in Ginowan-city, Okinawa,
Japan from June 24 to 27, 2014. The conference waschaired by Prof. Okamoto (Tokyo Univ.) and wassponsored by the Visualization Society of Japan (VSJ),

supported by University of the Ryukyus.
The ISFV conference was launched in 1977 in
Tokyo by Japanese researchers who lead the heat andflow visualization internationally. It has been heldworldwide once in two years as follow, to exchange
state-of-the-arts visualization technologies and its
applications, including the PIV/PTV, LIF and so on.

AIHTC.
The IHTC, nicknamed the “Heat Transfer
Olympic,” is the world’s premier conference in thefield of heat and mass transfer, which was held every
four year after 1966 as shown in Table 1.
On August 9th, it was started with the two adjunctspecial events:- Joule Energy Contest (JENECON) for studentsof high schools and technical colleges, and- Public Seminar by Prof. B. E. Launder (The Univ.
of Manchester) relating to global warming.
With about 1,100 participants from more than 40
countries, the plenary lecture at the opening wasdelivered by Prof. Yoshikawa (CRDS of JST) with atitle of “Science of Scientific Advice,” and it was
followed up by the plenary panel session with a title of“The Role of Thermal Science in Meeting Societal
Challenges.” After the traditional Fourier lecture by
Prof. Bar-Cohen, President of AIHTC, 29 keynote

presented in all oral sessions. Also, a panel session on
nuclear disaster resilience was specially introduced on
the basis of Fukushima accident.
The detail of the conference is shown in the
program booklet (Fig. 1) and many documents freely
