The third European Conference on Microfluidics (mFlu’12) was held in Heidelberg in December 2012, under the sponsorship of the Hydrotechnic Society of France (SHF), the Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna, the University of Toulouse, and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. This event has gathered 252 participants from 33 countries. During three days, 174 communications were presented in 16 thematic sessions including Liquid Microflows, Gas Microflows, Microsensors and In-Situ Analytics, Fluidic Microactuators and Micromixing, Microfabrication Techniques for Microfluidic Systems, Convective Micro Heat Transfer, Micro Chemical Engineering, Lab-on-a-Chip, Electrokinetic Microflows, Microdroplets Management, Microflows in Biological Systems and Bioengineering, Multi-Phase Flows in Microsystems and Microflow Visualization and other topics. In addition, this edition hosted two special sessions, one on Industrial Applications of Microfluidics, and another on Nanofluidics. The variety of works presented in this Conference confirmed that microfluidics finds applications in every industrial sector like biology, medicine, chemical and process engineering, transports, environment, microelectronics and it can be considered as a well-recognize new scientific discipline. The best papers presented to the Conference have been selected for publication in international journals. Experimental Heat Transfer hosts six of them in this special issue dedicated to mFlu’12.

The third European Conference on Microfluidics (mFlu’12) was held in Heidelberg in December 2012, under the sponsorship of the Hydrotechnic Society of France (SHF), the Alma Mater Studiorum University of Bologna, the University of Toulouse, and the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. This event has gathered 252 participants from 33 countries. During three days, 174 communications were presented in 16 thematic sessions including Liquid Microflows, Gas Microflows, Microsensors and In-Situ Analytics, Fluidic Microactuators and Micromixing, Microfabrication Techniques for Microfluidic Systems, Convective Micro Heat Transfer, Micro Chemical Engineering, Lab-on-a-Chip, Electrokinetic Microflows, Microdroplets Management, Microflows in Biological Systems and Bioengineering, Multi-Phase Flows in Microsystems and Microflow Visualization and other topics. In addition, this edition hosted two special sessions, one on Industrial Applications of Microfluidics, and another on Nanofluidics. The variety of works presented in this Conference confirmed that microfluidics finds applications in every industrial sector like biology, medicine, chemical and process engineering, transports, environment, microelectronics and it can be considered as a well-recognize new scientific discipline. The best papers presented to the Conference have been selected for publication in international journals.
