Nanoscale and Microscale Heat Transfer VII
Eurotherm seminar No 114
Hotel NH, Palermo, Italy
29 May - 2 June 2022
Aims and Scope
The conference "Nanoscale and Microscale Heat Transfer VII" will take place in Palermo (Italy). It will be the seventh in the series of successful conferences, the last three of which took place in Lyon (2014), Santorini (2016) and Levi (2018). Its main scope is to present the state-of-the-art and the modern trends of nanoscale and microscale heat/energy transfer.
The main topics of the conference will include (and not be limited to) the following:
Extreme-near-field heat transport
Heat conduction
Heat transport in 2D materials and metamaterials
Heat transport in molecular junctions
Micro/Nanoscale Energy Devices and Systems (including bolometers, calorimeters, energy components, etc.)
Nanoscale/microscale thermal metrology
Near-field radiative heat transfer
Nonequilibrium effects, thermodynamics and devices
Quantum effects in heat transport and quantum thermodynamics
Thermal applications in biological systems
Thermal interface resistance
Thermal rectification
Thermoelectricity and thermophotovoltaics
Ultrafast heat transfer
The program features 4 tutorial sessions and 4 plenary sessions led by selected speakers (see below), complemented by contributed oral and poster presentations, covering the full range of topics.
