Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Understanding and predicting heat transfer has long been a subject of research due to its comprehensive relevance in engineering and scientific applications, such as geothermal energy extraction, heat exchangers and electronic cooling instruments, chemical catalytic reactors, pollution transport, and mineral processing. Over the past several decades, considerable investigations and applications have been devoted to this area by many researchers using various computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods (e.g., finite difference method, finite element method, finite volume method, and lattice Boltzmann method).

This Special Issue will focus on numerical simulation and applied research in heat transfer using CFD methods. Papers are invited in all different areas of numerical heat transfer, as numerical heat transfer is a multidisciplinary topic involving research areas such as electromagnetism, mechanical design, thermal management, and material issues, as well as economic and environmental aspects. We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
