Summary

This book is a compilation of papers presented at this international symposium, held in Yokohama and Hakone, Japan, on November 25-27, 1999. Satisfying the ever-increasing global demand for energy is having a major impact on the environment. The technologies required to minimize such impacts are discussed in the book in an in-depth overview and review of a broad spectrum of energy and environmental issues. Extract from the table of contents: production, transportation and utilization of electric power; thermal science and engineering for energy conversion/utilisation processes (industrial drying technologies; critical heat flux in subcooled flow boiling; importance of thermophysical properties in optimum design and energy saving); gas hydrates: their impact on energy and environmental prospects; multiphase mechanics for energy and environmental technology; pollutants and radioactive waste in the earth; education on energy and environmental concerns.
