Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Experimental techniques have played a decisive role in the history of physical sciences, especially in multiphase thermodynamics. I believe, it is very useful to publish novel contributions to further widen a knowledge that still deserves researches, eventually triggered by the develop of new discovering due to novel investigation techniques.
This Special Issue of Fluids “Experimental Thermodynamics in Droplet Interactions” aims to present a collection of papers on fluid–structure interactions. We are interested in the development or the applications of measurement techniques including both experimental visualization and investigations that support the understanding of thermodynamic phenomena with quantitative measurements of variables such as heat and mass flow, complex interfaces, and phase changes, preferably in combination with multidisciplinary comparisons with analytical models or numerical simulations. Contributions on X-ray imaging applications in this area will be prioritized.

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.
