The 15th International Conference on Nanochannels, Microchannels and Minichannels; August 27-31, 2017 in Cambridge, MA

这一小型和跨学科的会议已经是一个既定的、传统的会议，重点是纳米通道、微通道和微通道中的传输现象。会议期间将介绍和讨论重点领域内热质传递和流体流动的最新进展和未来趋势。这次会议旨在为研究人员提供一个交流信息和确定这一新兴领域的研究需求的平台，该领域包括许多工程、基础科学和生物医学学科。包括纳米、微米和微型尺度的传输研究以及热管理、能量转换、芯片实验室和生物医学设备等实际应用的基本方面。会议涵盖的广泛应用是另一个吸引人的地方，特别是对于对渠道热传输过程感兴趣的年轻研究人员。这一支持将允许美国本科生和研究生参加研讨会。将特别考虑鼓励少数群体和来自代表不足群体的妇女的参与，他们对渠道热运输这一广泛领域的研究工作感兴趣或可能感兴趣，将通过宣布对妇女参与工程积极主动网络等清单服务的支持来实现。ICNMM为学生提供了一个进行技术演讲和海报演示的机会。会议规模小，范围广，是联网的理想选择。它也是学生展示和发表他们的研究成果的一个很好的论坛。全体会议和主旨演讲将审查现有信息，展示当前最先进的技术，并讨论不同领域的未来需求，为指导现有和新的学术课程的未来改进提供一个极好的机制。这些发言将广泛传播，不仅通过编写提交给Scope us、Compendex、ISI会议论文集引文索引和其他主要索引器的会议记录，而且还使通过谷歌学者搜索和所有其他主要搜索引擎可以找到会议论文。

This small and interdisciplinary conference is already an established, traditional meeting focused on transport phenomena in nanochannels, microchannels and minichannels. Recent advances and future trends in heat and mass transfer and fluid flow in the focused areas are to be presented and discussed during the conference. The conference is intended to provide a platform for researchers to exchange information and identify research needs in this emerging area encompassing many engineering, basic sciences, and bio-medical disciplines. Both fundamental aspects including transport studies at the nano, micro, and mini scales as well as practical applications including thermal management, energy conversion, lab on a chip, and biomedical devices will be covered. The broad range of applications covered by the conference has been an additional attractive point, especially to young researchers interested in thermal transport processes in channels.The support will allow US undergraduate and graduate students, to attend the symposium. Special consideration to encourage the participation of minorities and women from underrepresented groups, who are interested or may become interested in research efforts in the broad area of channel thermal transport, will be accomplished by announcing the support over list serves such as the Women in Engineering Proactive Network (WEPAN). ICNMM provides an opportunity for students to give technical talks and poster presentations. The small size and broad scope of the conference make it ideal for networking. It is also a great forum for students to present and publish their research. Plenary and keynote presentations will review existing information, present the current state-of-the-art and discuss future needs in different areas, providing an excellent mechanism to guide future improvements in existing and new academic programs. The presentations will be disseminated broadly, not only through the preparation of a proceedings submitted for indexing to Scopus, Compendex, ISI Conference Proceedings Citation Index, and other major indexers, but also making the conference papers discoverable through Google Scholar search and all other major search engines.
