Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We invite researchers and practitioners to contribute to our upcoming Special Issue on the Theoretical and Experimental Study on Compressor Performance.

This Special Issue aims to provide a comprehensive platform for groundbreaking studies that advance our understanding and optimization of compressor systems. We welcome a broad range of topics that explore innovative designs, simulations, and experimental research, including but not limited to the following:

  1. Compressor Design and Simulation Studies: Original articles that delve into diverse compressor designs and simulation techniques, showcasing advancements in modelling and prediction accuracy.
  2. Experimental Investigations: Studies presenting empirical data and insights into compressor behaviours under various operating conditions.
  3. Performance Enhancement: Research focused on optimizing compressor performance, with emphasis on energy efficiency, noise and vibration reduction, frictional loss mitigation, and other critical performance aspects.
  4. Novel Compressor Designs: Articles introducing new compressor architectures or modifications aimed at enhanced functionality and efficiency.
  5. Green Compressor Technologies: Research on environmentally friendly compressors for heating and cooling applications, including innovative approaches for emission reduction.
  6. Greener Refrigerants: Studies evaluating the use of alternative, eco-friendly refrigerants in compressors for sustainable heating and cooling applications.
  7. Other Aspects of Compressor Studies: We also welcome submissions on diverse topics related to compressor technology, from material innovation to lifecycle assessment and beyond.

This Special Issue seeks to create a valuable resource for those working to elevate the field of compressor technology and applications. Submissions that offer theoretical insights, practical advancements, or comprehensive reviews are highly encouraged.

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. Machines 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). 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.
