Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
“Energy systems” encompass all the thermodynamic systems in which heat or mass transfer occurs. These systems implicate a huge number of phenomena and applications, from the ground to outer space. In order to focus the contents of this Special Issue, we aim to explore topics covering the successful implementation of recently advanced and innovative numerical and analytical modeling techniques. These methods could have a substantial impact on the comprehension and virtual reproducibility of physical phenomena, supporting an increase in industrial system performance and thermal efficiency. I invite all colleagues and scientists working in the field of thermo-fluid dynamics and thermal sciences to submit a paper with at last two of the following three main characteristics: (1) inspiring or offering a better explanation of physical processes, (2) having a clear link to a high-impact and novel application, and (3) containing an original advancement in terms of numerical modeling or methods.
Prof. Dr. Marco Marengo

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. 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.
