Numerical Modelling of Aerospace Propulsion

Dear Colleagues,

Advancements in computational technology and propellant combustion modeling are making simulations of propulsion systems for aircraft and rockets increasingly feasible. However, large-scale, detailed simulations of propulsion are necessary to provide designers with critical information about the propulsion system components early in the design process within design environments. This Special Issue, titled Numerical Modelling of Aerospace Propulsion, aims to advance numerical modeling for aerospace propulsion systems to reduce the time required to analyze these systems and facilitate more efficient propulsion designs. We are seeking research on numerical algorithms, computational fluid dynamics, efficient computational approaches, and physics-based combustion models for gas, liquid, and solid propellants in modeling propulsion. Works on numerical-aided designs and novel propulsion system designs are also welcome.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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.
