Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are happy to invite you to submit a paper to Processes for a new Special Issue on “Measurements and Analysis of Mass and Energy Transport in HVAC Systems”. The Special Issue will be focused on a new approach to modeling and measurement system applications related to in-depth analysis of HVAC systems.
Over the years, we have seen the rapid development of simulation tools, sophisticated measurement devices, and techniques applied to ventilation system analysis. These are used in the ventilation and air conditioning of various facilities, ranging from cars, houses, and industrial facilities to underground building structures such as tunnels or mines. In every case, the application target is similar and assumed to provide the optimal amount of air within specified parameters (temperature, humidity, etc.) to specific places in ventilation networks or to establish adequate thermal conditions. In many cases, this task is made difficult by the conditions created by the ventilated object itself, such as the object’s complexity, gas, fire or explosion hazards, and work of people and machines. Such tasks require comprehensive activities from researchers, starting from a theoretical analysis of phenomena in ventilation networks, through their modeling and experimental verification with the use of precise measurement systems. They are all part of a single process that furthers our knowledge of ventilation used to design advanced air conditioning systems.

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. Processes 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.
