The Indian Society for Heat and Mass Transfer (ISHMT) has been acting as a nodal agency in India stimulating researchers engaged in various areas of heat and mass transfer and bringing them together for fruitful interaction and exchange of ideas. The ISHMT organized the first National Heat and Mass Transfer Conference at the Indian Institute of Technology Madras in 1971 and subsequently the conference has been held once in every two years at different places across the country. In these conferences, many well-known experts from abroad have also participated, exchanged technical information and have shared their expertise with the Indian researchers. In order to foster greater interaction with the researchers from overseas, ISHMT has started collaborating with other premier professional societies. During the period of 1994-2013, ISHMT and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) had jointly organized this conference. Thereafter, ISHMT and American Society of Thermal and Fluids Engineers (ASTFE) are jointly organizing this conference.

About IHMTC-2021

The role of heat and mass transfer in modern engineering applications and industrial processes is quite significant. Cutting-edge research in areas like thermal management, additive manufacturing, green buildings, and micro and nano-scale transport phenomena in biological systems are becoming popular along with traditional fields such as power plant, internal combustion engine, refrigeration and air conditioning. All over the world, intensive research is in progress on all aspects of fluid flow and heat transfer using theoretical, computational and experimental approaches. The goal of the conference is to virtually gather scholars from all over the world to present advances in the fields of transport phenomena and to foster an environment conducive to exchanging ideas and information. This conference will also provide an ideal environment to develop new collaborations on the fundamentals, applications, and products of the mentioned fields. This conference includes invited keynote talks by distinguished experts from industry and academia (across the globe) and number of parallel technical sessions spread over four days. This would serve as a platform for young researchers to virtually interact with academic experts and get motivated further to produce high quality research. This edition of the conference will be held online on 17th-20th December, 2021 in the 50th year after the first Madras conference. It will bring together the scientific minds in the area of heat and mass transfer from all corners of the country and the world.

About IIT Madras

The Indian Institute of Technology Madras, established by the Government of India in 1959, is among the foremost institutes not only in India but in the world for basic and higher technical education as well as fundamental and applied research. The Institute has been ranked as the top engineering institute in India for five years in a row (2016–2020) by Ministry of Human Resources Development, India. Known both nationally and internationally for excellence in innovation, entrepreneurship and industrial consultancy, it is endowed with faculty of international repute, a highly motivated and brilliant student community, excellent technical and supporting staff, and effective administration. All of these have all contributed to the pre-eminent status of IIT Madras. IIT Madras is a residential institute that occupies a 2.5 square kilometre (0.97 sq mi) campus that was formerly part of the adjoining Guindy National Park. The institute has nearly 600 faculty, 10,000 students and 1,250 administrative and supporting staff. Growing ever since it obtained its charter from the Indian Parliament in 1961, much of the campus is a protected forest, carved out of the Guindy National Park, home to large numbers of chital (spotted deer), black buck, bonnet macaque, and other rare wildlife. A natural lake, deepened in 1988 and 2003, drains most of its rainwater.
