On 18th to 21st October, 2015, the 7thInternational Conference on Pumps and Fans(ICPF 2015) held in Hangzhou. As one of the organizers, President YUAN Shouqi, the director for the science and technology department LI Hong of Jiangsu University, and the dean of our research center YANG Jingjiang, ZHANG Jinfeng, also some teachers and graduate students attended this conference.

The ICPF conference is a renowned international academic exchanges platform in the field of fluid machinery. All the scholars can conduct academic exchanges with domestic and overseas colleagues, and build up the international cooperation channel to jointly promote the fluid machinery industry and the level of products.

The conference brings together more than 180 researchers and scientists from 10 countries, affiliated with universities, technology institutes and industrial companies to communicate the advanced technologies for fluid machinery and systems.

The conference provided all the participants an excellent platform to present their research work and discuss the challenges facing the fluid machinery. The topics cover exhaustively the latest findings in the field of pumps, fans and compressor, including pump design and simulation, multi-phase flows and cavitation, experimental study, transient behaviors and unsteady flow, optimal design and theory analysis, numerical simulation and CFD application, power machinery, bearing and seals and so on.

And the 8th International Conference on Pumps and Fans will be organized by the National Research Center of Pumps, in Jiangsu University.
