The 8th ASME-JSME

The 8th ASME-JSME 

Thermal Engineering Joint Conference 

( AJTEC2011 ) 

Conference Program 

March 13 - 17, 2011 

Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa, Honolulu, Hawaii 

Co-sponsored by 

The Thermal Engineering Division, Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers 

and 

The Heat transfer Division, American Society of Mechanical Engineers 

In cooperation with 

The Energy Transport Process Division, American Institute of Chemical Engineers

Announcement from the Chairpersons 

The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME) 

have co-developed a successful series of joint conferences on thermal engineering at four-year intervals. AJTEC 

2011 is the 8th ASME/JSME Thermal Engineering Joint Conference. The previous conferences in this series were 

held in: Honolulu, Hawaii (1983 and 1987); Reno, Nevada (1991); Maui, Hawaii (1995); San Diego, California 

(1999); Hawaii Island, Hawaii (2003); and Vancouver, Canada (2007). AJTEC 2011 will be held again in Honolulu 

Hawaii. 

The Key Themes of AJTEC 2011 are "Fundamental" and "Interdisciplinary" with a vision for the future of 

Thermal Engineering. 

The 20th century is, in many ways symbolized by the phrases "Division" and "Development". In the early part of 

the century, engineers divided systems into their most fundamental elements for purpose of study. As the century 

progressed, scientific understanding enabled the enormous development of many new technologies. 

In the dawn of the new century, thermal engineers will be required to attain a better understanding of fundamental 

phenomena governing complex and integrated mechanical, chemical, and energy systems. As such, we must 

increase our efforts to integrate thermal engineering with other disciplines, and broaden our perspective to include 

an ever-widening range of time scales (from ultra rapid to long term) and length scales (from nanoscale to global). 

Such efforts require a strong collective will from the thermal engineering community to engage new technological 

challenges and to collaborate with scientists and engineers from other disciplines to meet these challenges with 

unique and innovative solutions. The 21st century has opened the gate for this new direction and the thermal 

engineering community appears ready and willing to embrace the challenges that lie ahead. 

The objective of the AJTEC 2011 conference is to provide an international forum for the exchange of such new 

ideas and direction as described above and the presentation of the latest work in the field. We strongly encourage 

attendance and paper submission from sister societies around the globe including those from ASME and JSME.

General Information 

Presentation and Audio-Visual Aids 

All the presentations except the Keynote Lectures are allotted for 20 minutes including discussion. Each session 

room will have a fullcolor liquid crystal projector (LCP). The LCP will be equipped with a connection cable with 

D-Sub mini 15-pin male connector for RGB-video input from computers. Note that speakers who wish to use the 

LCP must prepare their own computer, presentation software, and additional connectors if needed. 

Welcome Reception 

On Sunday evening, March 13, 2011, all attendees are invited to the Welcome Reception. The Welcome Reception 

will be held at 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at the Pualeilani Terrace, which is located on the third floor of the Kealohilani 

Tower and is connected to the second floor of the Paoakalani Tower.
