    The two heats for the 400 IM is called the semifinal. In the prelims, the swimmers are narrowed down to 16 who move on the to the semifninal. The semifinal is then two different timed heats. The fastest 8 times are then taken from the two heats and those 8 swimmers move on to the finals to try and win gold. Hope this helped
