Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Both multiphase flows and heat & mass transfer are ubiquitously observed in nature, daily life and engineering fields, such as rain droplet impact, water boiling, oil recovery, cooling of integrated chips, etc. It is a complex process coupled with multiple physical phenomena. Numerous studies have been conducted to improve our understanding of this area by means of theoretical, numerical and experimental approaches. This Special Issue summarizes the recent progresses on this topic. The interested research areas include but are not limited to:
- Droplet impact on liquid and solid surface with different microstructures;
- Liquid boiling of different regimes, with different microstructures;
- Evaporation of liquid under isothermal/non-isothermal conditions;
- Evaporation of colloidal suspension and nanoparticle transport;
- Vapor condensation of different types;
- Multiphase flows and phase change in porous media;
- Enhanced heat & mass transfer;
- Various applications in oil recovery, chip cooling, microfluidics, fuel cells, carbon capture, utilization and storage, etc.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
