Brief introduction of the Conference ISMF
In order to promote the research and academic communication on multiphase flow, heat mass transfer and
energy conversion, the first symposium, originally named China-U.S. Seminar on Two-phase Flows and Heat
Transfer, was successfully held in Xi’an Jiaotong University in 1984, owing to the great efforts of
Professor T.N. Veziroglu and Professor Xuejun Chen. The second symposium, formally named International
Symposium on Multiphase Flow and Heat Transfer, was held in 1989, with hundreds of participants from 18
countries. Following that, the third and the fourth Symposiums were held successfully in 1994 and 1999.
The fifth, sixth and seventh symposiums is organized by the State Key Laboratory of Multiphase Flow in
Power Engineering in 2005, 2009,2012 and 2016.
