Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Due to the supreme importance of climate change and the related threats to humanity, there is an urgent need to rapidly transform our energy system to carbon-free or carbon-neutral processes. This requires the use of new materials and new technologies in gas turbine combustion. Driven by this necessity, this field is currently undergoing a transition with respect to the use of alternative fuels and the development of new combustion technologies.
The present Special Issue aims to showcase the most recent research and advancements in this area. We invite researchers from academia and industry to share their latest research findings, including various aspects of gas turbine combustion. Through the application of experimentation, simulation, modeling, and data-driven methods, a deeper understanding of combustion behavior of alternative fuels and combustion technologies can be achieved.
Research articles as well as review papers are welcome. We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Fire 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.
