The InterPore Japan Chapter National Meeting 2026 will take place on October 26, 2026, in Nagoya, Japan, as part of the National Thermal Engineering Conference 2026.

The National Thermal Engineering Conference is a domestic conference in Japan, and information is available primarily in Japanese. Further details can be found on the official conference website: https://www.jsme.or.jp/conference/tedconf26/index.html

The meeting will feature two technical sessions under the theme “Heat Transfer, Fluid Flow, and Mass Transport in Porous Media and Their Applications: From Macro- to Nanoscale.” More details in English can be found below:
