Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Currently, due to the continuous increase in the flight Mach number of hypersonic vehicles and the demand for reusable propulsion systems, thermal protection is becoming a crucial component of hypersonic vehicles. This Special Issue of Thermal Protection Technology of Hypersonic Propulsion aims to address recent advances in thermal protection technologies, including traditional passive or active thermal protection technology, novel thermal protection methods or systems, the combined cooling method, and lightweight, high-strength, and high-temperature-resistant materials. The research included in this Special Issue should focus on the complex physical flow and heat transfer mechanisms of thermal protection technologies, the fluid–thermal–structural coupling of thermal protection technologies, or other related fields. The Editor of this Special Issue invites authors to submit papers that address the challenges of thermal protection in various hypersonic vehicles and the development of methods that enable a high flight Mach number and the reuse of hypersonic vehicles to be achieved.

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. Aerospace 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.
