Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Decarbonizing various sectors using alternative fuels instead of fossil fuels is one of the significant challenges of transitioning to a net zero-carbon era. Therefore, it is necessary to consider several scenarios and propose options with higher possibilities and viability for further consideration. In this regard, understanding the combustion process of such fuels throughout different combustion regimes is critical in applying the fuels in practical applications. Hence, further experimental and numerical studies in the field are required to bring the proposed low-emission fuels to the market. Therefore, deep-diving into further understanding the physico-chemical characteristics of the fuels in all gaseous, liquid, and solid forms is essential in terms of evaluating heat transfer characteristics, ignition, combustion, explosion, and safety issues for future industrial applications.
