Abstract

The 2022 International Conference on Energy and Power Engineering (EPE 2022) was successfully held in Sanya, China on October 21st-23rd, 2022 (virtual conference). EPE 2022 provided an international platform for experts, scholars, and engineers to share professional experience and exchange new ideas, and to explore the key challenges and research directions facing the development of these fields, as well as promoted the development and integration of related disciplines.We had the honor of having invited Prof. Mohan Kolhe from University of Agder, Norway to serve as our Conference Chair. The conference was composed of keynote speeches, oral presentations, and online Q&A discussion, bringing together over 150 delegates from all over the world. Firstly, keynote speakers were each allocated 30-45 minutes to hold their speeches. Then in the next part, oral presentations, the excellent papers we had selected were presented by their authors one by one.During the conference, two distinguished professors were invited to address their keynote speeches. For a start, Prof. Kamil ARSLAN from Karabük University, Turkey made a report on the title Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). Fluid flow under the magnetic field effect is stated as Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) phenomenon which is the field that examines the dynamic behavior of electrically conductive fluids. He showed us the background, the researches and then his study on Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). And then, Prof. Santhanam Harikrishnan from Kings Engineering College, India delivered a speech on Thermal Characteristics of Nanomaterials Embedded Phase Change Materials (NePCMs). He introduced that phase change materials (PCMs) employed in LTES for larger-scale applications are limited due to their low thermal conductivities and then nanomaterials are suspended to accelerate the energy storage/release rate capabilities, which leads to the improvement of the thermal properties of the pure PCMs. Their brilliant keynote speeches had sparked heated discussion in the conference. And every participant praised this conference for disseminating useful and insightful knowledge.List of Committee member are available in this pdf.
