Preface

The Mechanical Engineering Congress 2024 Japan (MECJ-24) was held from 8th to 11th, September, 2024 in Ehime University, Johoku Campus. The conference has the keynote lectures from Prof. Shinnosuke Obi of Keio University and Prof. Yohei Morinishi of Nagoya Institute of Technology, 2 workshops, and several organized sessions related to the fluids engineering division.

The issue of this Newsletter is “The Mechanical Engineering Congress 2024 Japan (MECJ-24)”, and 5 precious articles related to fluid engineering are reported. These articles are contributed by 2 speakers of the keynote lecture, 3 speakers of workshop entitled “EFD workshop: Flow Measurements around Rotational Bodies”. All authors in this issue are active in the front-lines of their research field, and the articles certainly provide deep insight on each topic. We expect that these articles are informative for engineers and researchers, and help to share the activities of the fluids engineering division in the future.

Finally, we would like to thank all the authors for their contributions.
