Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The demand for space applications is growing, and the need for space transportation is gradually expanding in both military and commercial spaceflight, with rapid and low-cost spaceflight activities being the current trend. In order to enter space, it is indispensable to have powerful propulsion devices, including liquid rocket engines, ram engines, and their combined engines. Rocket engines are jet engines that carry their own propellant from the vehicle and do not utilize outside air, while an aero-engine is a device that utilizes oxygen in the air for combustion with fuel. Carrying out the dynamic performance analysis and control of engines for aerospace is conducive to promoting the development of engine theory and technology.

This is a call for papers for a Special Issue entitled “Dynamic Performance Analysis and Control of Engines for Aerospace”. This Special Issue will provide a venue for scholars and researchers to share their most recent theoretical and technical successes, as well as to highlight key topics and difficulties for future study in the field. The submitted papers are expected to raise original ideas and potential contributions to theory and practice. The research topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • System characteristics;
  • Spray and flow;
  • Combustion dynamics;
  • Rotor dynamics;
  • Reliability and life analysis;
  • Heat transfer and thermal protection;
  • Propellant characterization.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Machines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
