About PRTEC 2027
The Pacific Rim Thermal Engineering Conference (PRTEC) is jointly organized by KSME, JSME, and ASTFE to promote collaboration in thermal engineering across the Pacific Rim and beyond. The 4th PRTEC will be held at the Ala Moana Hotel by Mantra, Honolulu, Hawaii, from March 14 to 18, 2027.
Guided by the themes of Fundamental, Interdisciplinary, and Diversity, PRTEC 2027 will present state-of-the-art advances in heat and mass transfer, complex fluids, micro/nano-scale phenomena, energy systems, and bio-related thermal sciences. Researchers worldwide are invited to participate and submit extended abstracts.
