Heat Transfer in Components and Systems for Sustainable Energy Technologies : Heat-SET 2010

The growing demand for energy despite limited fossil fuel reserves and growing environmental concerns is probably the major challenge of the 21st century. To achieve a sustainable development, the origin and the usage of energy have to be addressed. Advanced energy technologies for both fossil and renewable energy carriers have to be developed, requiring significant progress in research and technology. This conference is intended to provide a platform for researchers from industry and academia to exchange information and identify research needs in the area of heat transfer in components and systems for sustainable energy technologies.
