Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Heat transfer plays a key role in numerous industrial processes, from manufacturing to energy production, chemical processing, and beyond. Recent advancements in both experimental and numerical techniques have significantly improved our understanding of thermal transport phenomena, leading to the development of more efficient, sustainable, and innovative industrial systems. The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together original research that addresses the challenges and opportunities of heat transfer across a wide range of industrial applications.
Topics of interest for this Special Issue include the following:
- Advanced heat exchanger design and optimization;
- Phase-change phenomena in industrial applications (e.g., boiling, condensation);
- Heat transfer in additive manufacturing and advanced manufacturing techniques;
- Thermal management in industrial energy systems;
- Innovations in cooling and heating systems for industrial use;
- Experimental techniques for studying heat transfer in complex industrial systems;
- Computational modeling and the simulation of heat transfer in industrial environments;
- Energy-efficient heat transfer solutions in the context of sustainability.

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. Fluids 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 1800 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.
