Advances in Nuclear Power Plants and Nuclear Energy

Dear Colleagues,

The Guest Editor is inviting submissions to a Special Issue of Energies on the subject area of “Advances in Nuclear Power Plants and Nuclear Energy”. Advanced nuclear power plant system research is the main trend in the development of nuclear energy. There are now many fourth-generation nuclear power systems being researched in recent years. With the development of artificial intelligence technology and the urgent demand for smart nuclear power supported by high-precision models of numerical reactors and digital twin operation and maintenance, it is necessary to explore the application of cutting-edge methods of artificial intelligence in reactors.

This Special Issue will deal with Advanced nuclear system research and artificial intelligence applications for “Advances in Nuclear Power Plants and Nuclear Energy”. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:

• Fourth-generation nuclear power systems;
• Supercritical carbon dioxide nuclear energy systems;
• Helium xenon-cooled nuclear reactor;
• Nuclear reactor thermal hydraulics;
• Intelligent accident diagnosis algorithm;
• Non-invasive order reduction method for nuclear;
• Flow field reconstruction for nuclear.

Guest Editor

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. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
