Since 1994, the Russian National Heat Transfer Conferences have been held every four years. The
total number of papers presented by Russian researchers was about 500 at each conference. In 2022,
the 8th Russian National Heat Transfer Conference is scheduled to take place at the Moscow PowerEngineering Institute on October 17-22. https://rnhtc.mpei.ru/(Moscow standard time, MST: UTC+3, Population: 146 million)

The National Committee for Heat and Mass Transfer (NCHMT) wasorganized on June 10, 1971.
Academician M.A. Styrikovich was elected the first chairman of theNCHMT and remained in his position until 1994.

M.A. Styrikovich
Academicians S.S. Kutateladze, A.V. Luikov and M.A.
Styrikovich were among the founders and creators of theInternational Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer(ICHMT, http://www.ichmt.org/).

School-Seminar of young scientists and specialists under the scientific leadership of Professor A.I.
Leontiev "Problems of Heat and Mass Transfer and Gas Dynamics in Power Plants" has been held
once every two years since 1977. The School-Seminar brings together young scientists and engineers
working in the field of thermal physics and heat transfer, providing an open forum to discuss current
and future research directions. As a rule, the School-Seminar is held in different cities of the RussianFederation.
The XXIII school-seminar was held on May 24-28, 2021 in Yekaterinburg on the basis of the Instituteof Thermal Physics of the Russian Academy of Sciences. There were about 200 presentations by
young researchers and 29 lectures by distinguished professors. www.nchmt.ru; http://itpekb.ru

Since its foundation, the National Committee for Heat and Mass Transfer has been an institutional
member of the International Centre for Heat and Mass Transfer.
Michael A. Styrikovich was president of the International Centre of Heat and Mass Transfer from1972 to 1976, and Alexander I. Leontiev was vice-president of the ICHMT from 2002 to 2006.
Leonid A. Dombrovsky is currently a member of the ICHMT Executive Committee.
Twenty Russian scientists are members of the Scientific Council of the ICHMT. This is the second
largest national representation in the Scientific Council after the USA.
From 1971 to 1992, the National Committee for Heat and Mass Transfer provided information andorganizational support for the participation of delegations of researchers at more than 89 international
scientific events on various problems of heat and mass transfer.
Delegates from Russia to the Assembly of International
Conferences on Heat Transfer are Leonid Dombrovsky andAlexander Leontiev.

Alexander I. Leontiev

The Eighth Russian National Conference on Heat Transfer (RNCHT-8) is thelargest event in Russia that brings together specialists in the field of heat transfer.
The conference was held in face-to-face format. The conference was attended
by more than 300 researchers - representatives of educational and academic
institutions, leading industry research institutes, factories, and joint-stockcompanies. Leading Russian and foreign scientists presented 11 plenary and 12
keynote lectures on topical issues of heat and mass transfer at the conference:
1) The Kutateladze–Leontiev limit laws of heat transfer. Sixty years later; 2) Possible mechanisms of climatechange; 3) Russia and the World in the age of global warming and counteracting it; 4) Heat and mass transfer andits applications at A.V. Luikov Institute of Heat and Mass Transfer – between the past and the future; 5) Active
Brownian motion and quantum turbulence induced by laser radiation in a superfluid helium; 6) A new generationof high-performance energy; 7) Trends and achievements in the study of boiling processes; 8) Direct numericalsimulation of turbulent wedges at supersonic velocities; 9) Active emulsions; 10) Thermal and physical-chemical
processes in hydrogen production in a microstructural heat exchanger reactor; 11) Prospective directions forhydrodynamics and heat transfer in interconnected fluidized bed reactors for capturing CO2 and hydrogenproduction; 12) Heat transfer and friction in dynamically nonequilibrium turbulent flows; 13) Comparison ofthermophysical characteristics of nanofluids with single-walled and multi-walled carbon tubes; 14) Investigationof heat transfer during cooling of cylindrical bodies simulating tolerant fuel of nuclear power plants; 15) Interfacial
heat transfer and the ability to control volumetric condensation in a dusty vapor-gas flow; 16) Influence of vortex
formation effects on heat and mass transfer processes in nuclear power plants; 17) Numerical and experimental
study of vortex intensification of heat transfer on structured surfaces with inclined grooves; 18) Thermocapillary
rivulet structure in a locally heated vertical liquid film; 19) Application of the meshless method for numericalsimulation of gas-dynamic interaction of particles with a shock layer; 20) Registration of the characteristics of thefire source in rooms; 21) Convective heat transfer in the presence of a heat-insulating body in the liquid volume;22) A variation approach to the analysis of mathematical models of heat conduction taking into account spatial
nonlocality; 23) Identification of heat transfer characteristics in coil windings high-temperature superconductors.

The conference programme included 318 papers, divided into 12 sessions (Fig. 1) in 12 sections: 1. Forced
convection in single-phase media; 2. Natural convection; 3. Combustion, heat and mass transfer during chemicaltransformations; 4. Boiling, boiling crises, post-crisis heat transfer; 5. Evaporation, condensation; 6. Two-phaseflows; 7. Dispersed flows and porous media; 8. Intensification of heat transfer; 9. Radiative and combined heattransfer; 10. Heat conduction, thermal insulation; 11. Non-traditional problems of heat transfer; 12. Youth section.
Each session included both oral presentations and poster sessions. The posters were mainly by young
researchers. The authors of the three best posters in each section were awarded diplomas.
The conference included a round table "Thermophysical Problems in Nuclear Power Engineering".
The proceedings of the conference were published in two volumes.

2. Thermophysics and Aeromechanics is a journal offering original reports, reviews, and discussions on fluiddynamics, heat and mass transfer, turbulence, and other topics. The journal publishes articles of both a fundamental
and applied nature, as well as theoretical and numerical modeling, experimental data and descriptions ofexperimental techniques and new engineering principles. Founded by the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academyof Sciences (SB RAS), Kutateladze Institute of Thermophysics SB RAS, and Khristianovich Institute ofTheoretical and Applied Mechanics SB RAS in 1994, the journal “Thermophysics and Aeromechanics” welcomes
contributions in English from all countries. Currently, the journal has contributors from Australia, Austria, Belarus,Belgium, Canada, China, India, Iran, Italy, Japan, South Korea, etc.
“Thermophysics and Aeromechanics” is a peer-reviewed journal. We use a single-blind peer review format.
The average period from submission to the first decision is 52 days. The average rejection rate for submitted
manuscripts is 42%. The final decision on the acceptance of an article for publication is made by the EditorialBoard. Any invited reviewer who feels unqualified or unable to review the manuscript due to a conflict of interests
should immediately notify the Editorial Board and decline the invitation. Reviewers should formulate theirstatements clearly and reasonably so that the authors can use reviewer’s arguments to improve the manuscript.
Personal criticism of the authors should be avoided. Reviewers should indicate in the review (i) any relevantpublished work that has not been cited by the authors, (ii) anything reported in previous publications and that has
not been referenced or cited appropriately, (iii) any significant similarity or overlap with any other manuscript(published or unpublished) of which they are personally aware.
Since 2006, the English version of the journal “Thermophysics and Aeromechanics” (its electronic version) has
been available at the Springer website: https://www.springer.com/journal/11510
Email address for contacting the journal: tanda@itp.nsc.ruxx
