ABSTRACT. This guide has been prepared for authors of
papers to be presented at the ICHMT International Symposium on Heat and Mass
Transfer in Spray Systems to be held in
NOMENCLATURE
The
editors of all the major heat transfer journals have adopted a common list of symbols. All authors should use these symbols for
papers submitted for this symposium.
Symbols in the list must not
be included in the nomenclature for an individual paper. Only symbols peculiar to an individual paper
should be included in a nomenclature list which should be placed immediately
following the Abstract. The symbol list can be found in the Journal of Heat Transfer, Vol. 121, No.
4, pp. 770-773, November 1999, or at
http://mohican.me.utexas.edu/~heatran/geninfo.html#Common List
INTRODUCTION:
MANUSCRIPT PREPARATION
Use only
one side of A4 size (210 ΄ 297 mm)
or quarto (8½ ΄ 11
inch) good quality white bond paper. The text should be single-spaced. If superscripts or subscripts make this a
problem, wider spacing may be necessary.
Leave double spaces between paragraphs.
Begin paragraphs flush at the left margin without indentation. The typing area of all pages should be 170 x
257 mm, whichever size of paper is used, with equal margins on left and
right. Each page should be completely
filled with typing and/or diagrams (except perhaps the last page). The
total length of a paper, including all figures, tables and references if any,
should be no more than 10 pages for contributed papers and no more than 16
pages for invited keynote papers.
References
should be numbered consecutively in the order they are mentioned [1],
using Arabic numerals [2, 3] in square brackets [4].
Do not
type page numbers. Lightly write the
page number and the first authors name at the
bottom of each page, using a light blue
pencil.
Authors
should use Times or Times New Roman, 12-point character size for the text. A laser printer must be used for preparation
of the manuscript. A dot matrix printer
is not
acceptable. The printer should have a
typeface that features descenders below the baseline, e.g., g or y. The text should be left and right justified.
The
layout of the paper should follow the style of this document, starting with a
title, name(s) of author(s) and affiliation(s).
Title
The title should appear 32 mm below the top edge of the page. It should be brief, clear and
descriptive. Use all bold capital
letters (except if formulae or symbols appear in the title), centered on the
width of the typing area. Authors names
and affiliations should not be in bold.
Leave one blank line between the title and the affiliation(s).
Abstract
A brief abstract (50 - 150
words) should appear beneath the affiliation of the author(s). It should give
an account of the most relevant contributions of the paper. It is also important to indicate briefly the
goal, the methods, the results, and conclusions. Avoid abbreviations, diagrams, and
references. It must be complete and understandable without reference to the
text. Leave four blank lines between the
Authors affiliation and the Abstract. Type the word ABSTRACT
in capitals, beginning at the left hand margin; follow it by a period and two
letter spaces; then begin typing the abstract itself in lower case and single
space in block style. Leave two blank lines between the abstract and the first
major heading.
If your
paper is divided into sections and subsections, please use the format
adopted here, in which first-level headings are in bold capitals, centered on
the line.
Second level headings
Second level headings should be in bold lower case
(initial capital), left aligned.
Third-level headings. Third-level headings should be placed at the
beginning of a paragraph. Capitalize
only first letter of the whole subhead and underline it (if possible, make the
subhead italic); follow it by a period and two letter spaces; then begin typing
the text on the same line and continue the text without indenting again. Leave
one line space above.
Equations, units, symbols, etc. Equations should be typed neatly in position
with appropriate space above and below to distinguish them from the text. Equations should be either centered or placed
flush left, and assigned a number that should appear in parentheses flush to
the right margin.
Subscripts
and superscripts should clearly be typed as such, and the manuscript should be
reviewed carefully to ensure there is no ambiguity in presentation. Numbers and
letters that are intended to be subscripts or superscripts should not align
with the rest of the text.
Do not
use punctuation at ends of equations.
Align equal signs when equations stack with no intervening words. Greek letters and other symbols should be
typed if possible or neatly drawn in black ink.
Drawn lettering must have a professional appearance. You may use rub-on type. All data should be reported in SI units. Decimals should always be shown by periods
and not by commas or centered dots.
Figures. Care should be taken to ensure that figures are
contained within the typing area. All original drawings should be prepared, if
possible, for a uniform scale of reduction. As a general rule, lettering in the
figures should be comparable to that in the text.
Black
and white photographs (half-tones) should be supplied as glossy prints;
although original drawings on good quality paper are permitted, glossy prints
or their equivalent are preferred.
Photocopies or tear sheets from published materials are not acceptable.
Color photographs will not be accepted unless the additional printing cost is
borne by the author. A letter acknowledging the willingness to pay for the
color prints should be sent to the editor with the print.
Figures
should be numbered consecutively, e.g. Fig. 1 or Figure 2, with a single letter
space between the word Figure and the Arabic numeral. Place figures centered on the
width of the text page and either at the top or bottom of the page as close as
possible to their first mention in the text. Centered one line below the
illustration, type the word Figure (in upper and lower case) and its number followed by a
period and two-letter space. Then type the legend single spaced, with an
initial capital for the first word and for proper nouns only. Example:
Figure 1. The art
of typing Greek legends
Each
illustration should have at least a two-line space above the illustration, a
one-line space between the illustration and the legend, and at least a two-line
space between the legend and the start of the text. All illustrations should be
pasted in, using rubber cement; no Scotch tape, please. Appropriate space
should be left above and below to the figure legend to ensure that the legend
does not become confused with the text.
Tables.
Table captions should appear above
the respective table. Each table should
have at least a two-line space both above the table and between the table and
the start of the following text.
When
tables are mentioned in the text, they should be referred to as Table 1, Table
5, i.e., with a single letter space between the word Table and the
Arabic numeral.
The word
Table should be capitalized and centered with the table
number above the table. On the next line, the table caption should be typed
single spaced and centered, with the first letter of all main words in
capitals. Use horizontal rules above and
below to separate title from column heads, ranks within column heads, column
heads from table body, and table body from table footnotes or source. For example:

Authors
should ensure that a table does not flow from one page to the next page. Tables
should occupy only as much space as is required. Any material that can not be typed, such as
symbols and formulae, should be inked carefully in black.
Lists.
Short lists can be run into the text as part of a sentence of paragraph;
use parentheses around the numbers and separate items by a comma or semi-colon.
For longer lists, leave a one-line space above and below the list; and
two-letter space before beginning the list item. Runover lines starts below the
first word of the item.
Footnotes. Since footnotes tend to interrupt the natural
flow of ideas in manuscript, they should be limited in number and used to
indicate (a) acknowledgement of funding or sponsorship, or (b) copyright
information or credit line if the material has been published previously. Footnotes should be identified by symbols: * . The
footnote* should
be separated from the text by a one-line space and a 5 cm overbar. Start each
footnote on a separate line at the left margin, typing the superscript symbol
at the margin and immediately beginning the text of the footnote. Use the same font as in the body of the text.
KEYWORDS
In a covering letter, please
supply six to eight keywords which apply to your paper. This will assist in the preparation of an
index for the Proceedings.
Authors
from non-English speaking countries are requested to find persons who are
competent in English and familiar with the scientific language who can edit
their manuscripts before submission.
Reviewers must not be relied upon to make corrections of English
expression, spelling, etc. As there is
no copy editing stage for camera-ready manuscripts, it is the responsibility of
authors to ensure that the presentation of their papers reaches the same high
level as that of the work they describe.

Each
manuscript must be accompanied by a statement that it has not been published
elsewhere and that it has not been simultaneously submitted for publication
elsewhere. All accepted manuscripts, artwork, and photographs become the
property of the publisher.
Permission The use of tables, drawings, diagrams,
photographs, 50 words or more prose, more than one line of a poem, or other
material from another source requires written permission to republish from the
copyright holder. The total number of words from any one source is cumulative
throughout a manuscript. When an author plans to revise or adapt an
illustration for his/her own use, it is recommended to obtain permission. Most
It is
the responsibility of the author or editor of the book (or in a contributed
book, the individual authors) to obtain written permission from whoever holds
the copyright, usually a publisher, and also to pay any permission fees.
Request for permission should be solicited as soon as the manuscript has been
written, as the process is often quite slow. Once permission has been obtained,
the correct credit (often the copyright holder stipulates the wording) must be
included in a footnote or within the text, in a source note to a table, or in a
credit line within a figure legend. In a book with extensive quotations from
previously copyrighted works, it is sometimes desirable to include all credit
lines on an expanded Acknowledgements page. Original permission letters must be
forwarded to the publisher with the final manuscript. Production cannot proceed
without them. (A sample form of "Request for Permission" is attached)
Transfer of Copyright for Multi-Authored Works
The 1978
U.S. Copyright Law vests statutory copyright for each individual article with
the author(s) of the article, or with their employers in the case of a work
made for hire. As the result, the publisher must ask contributors
excluding the contracted editor(s) for copyright on each article, which must
be formally assigned in writing. Articles cannot be accepted for publication
without a signed Transfer of Copyright Agreement. All original signed forms
must be submitted by the editor(s) to the publisher with the final manuscript.
BEGELL HOUSE INC.
COPYRIGHT RELEASE
The transfer of copyright from author to publisher must be clearly
stated in writing to enable the publisher to assure maximum dissemination of
the author's work. Therefore, the following agreement, executed and signed by
the author, is required with each manuscript submission.
