This publication includes the articles from the 5th International Conference on Chemistry and Materials Science (IC2MS 2023) held on October 11-12, 2023, in Malang, Indonesia. The IC2MS series was launched in 2017, with the first meeting that attracted more than 200 participants from over 40 universities/institutions representing such countries as Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Japan, Taiwan, Brunei Darussalam, and Australia. Since then, the IC2MS meetings have been held biennially as a joint conference organized by Brawijaya University, Jember University, State University of Malang, and Universiti Teknologi Mara with the aim to build up strong academic relationships and united scientific community. The 2023 event was organized by the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Brawijaya University, which was the initial host of the conference inaugural meeting.

The 9th International Scientific Conference on Advances in Mechanical Engineering (ISCAME, November 9-10, 2023, Debrecen, Hungary) was organized by the Department of Mechanical Engineering (Faculty of Engineering, University of Debrecen) and the Working Commission of Mechanical Engineering (Specialized Committee in Engineering, Regional Committee in Debrecen, Hungarian Academy of Sciences). The main goal of ISCAME is to yearly bring together engineers, scientists, researchers, practitioners from academia and industry to present their original works and share experiences regarding all aspects of mechanical engineering sciences.

The special publication entitled “Transfer Phenomena in Fluid and Heat Flows XV” continues a series of themed volumes. It presents a collection of articles associated with heat transfer, fluid flow, and related phenomena. The continuous need for improved machines, higher efficiencies, and more detailed and accurate theoretical modeling approaches makes it necessary to showcase the latest trends regularly with small intervals between the different volumes in this topical series. The design of flow systems also plays a significant role in this special issue.
