Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are delighted to extend an invitation for submissions to this Special Issue of Fire, aiming to attract a range of topics relating to fire and combustion. It gives the opportunity to present new developments and thereby share ideas with the wider community in these areas, encompassing, but not limited to, turbulent combustion modelling, large-eddy simulations, hybrid RANS/LES, gas turbine combustion, auto-ignition, minimum ignition energy, experimental combustion techniques, aerodynamic flows, flame–wall interactions, turbomachinery flows, complex combustion geometries using both general purpose CFD codes and OpenFOAM, combustion simulation of multi-phase flows, etc.
It creates a platform for numerical combustion researchers to exchange insights into fundamental research on fire and practical applications. It covers fire modelling using CFD, focusing on pool and jet fires, as well as fire protection and suppression techniques involving water systems, basement fire simulation, thermal radiation heat transfer and glass behaviour under fire conditions. The Special Issue will feature papers on fire behaviour modelling, risk assessment, wildfire management and firefighting technologies. The submissions should be sources, exploring new data products and discussing the best practices for fire modelling and validation. This Special Issue serves as a valuable platform for advancing understanding and enhancing capabilities in fire modelling, risk assessment and mitigation efforts. Other related topics not mentioned above may be considered at the editor's discretion.

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. Fire 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).
