Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Combustion reactions exist in all aspects of human production and life. On one hand, combustion reactions provide most of the energy and power for human life and social development, and efficient combustion technology is the core of energy conversion; it is also one of the cornerstones of modern industrial civilization. The energy supply equipment of internal combustion engine power machinery, such as diesel engines and gasoline engines, is the basis of national economic development and the construction of a national defense industry, and the energy conversion equipment represented by the boiler is the "heart" of industrial production. Micro/meso-combustion power systems based on micro-electro-mechanical technology (MEMS), micro-satellites, micro-air vehicles and micro-mobile devices as energy supply devices are the research frontiers and hotspots of national defense science and technology and high-tech industries. On the other hand, with the development of urbanization and the context of global warming, urban fires and forest fires occur frequently, so it is very important to reveal the dynamic behavior of flames for fire prevention and control. To make better use of and control combustion, it is necessary to carry out basic in-depth research on flame combustion and its dynamic characteristics (including flame stability, flame behavior evolution, etc.).
The main purpose of this Special Issue is to reveal the factors affecting combustion characteristics and explore the mechanism driving thermal–chemical interactions.
Articles, reviews, reports, communications, perspectives, and opinions are all 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 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.
