Thermal Fluids: Theory and Applications
This special issue belongs to the section "Heat and Mass Transfer".
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Thermo-fluid is a field that integrates thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, and heat transfer. Thermo-fluid systems are fundamental to various engineering applications, from designing heat exchangers and engines to optimizing industrial processes. Topics covered include heat and mass transfer, energy engineering, fluid dynamics processes, flowing soft-matter systems, multi-phase flow, and thermal hydraulic systems. Contributions can be experimental, numerical, or both.
The 16th International Conference on Thermal Engineering (ICTEA, www.ictea.ca) is to be held in Bucharest, Romania, 18-20 June, 2025. The conference covers significant topics related to this Special Issue. Papers attracting the most interest at the conference, or those that provide novel contributions, will be selected for publication in this Special Issue of Fluids. These papers will be peer-reviewed for validation of the research results, developments, and applications.
In addition, submissions from others that are not associated with this conference but with themes focusing on fluid flow and heat transfer are also welcome.
Prof. Dr. Ziad Saghir

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Fluids 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 1800 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.
