Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pollutant emissions from the aviation industry are of greatest concern for the environment. Due to the massive development of air traffic, the harmful pollutants (NOx, CO, SOx and HC) emitted by gas turbine and other turbo engines are dramatically increasing every day. In general, aviation engines impact local air quality and the global climate. By modifying the engine with optimum materials and combustor design, the possibility of a reduction in the formation of the carbon is viable. Over a few years, novel technologies in the aviation industry have reduced the emission of greenhouse gases by 50% by implementing advanced materials and combustion chambers. Using conventional combustors results in an improper air–fuel mixture ratio and leads to a higher local temperature in the combustor, which results in increased formation of NO and soot. On the other hand, the utilization of biofuel for aviation is a promising option for meeting global energy needs without any collateral damage to the environment. The addition of biofuel to gas turbine engines results in effective thrust production with less formation of carbon than fossil fuels. Furthermore, the dispersion of nanoparticles in biofuel blends can realize higher thrust production with minimal damage to the environment. The intention of this Special Issue is to invite quality research and review articles on the design, development and simulation of gas turbine and turbojet engines.

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.
