Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In engineering, transport phenomena refer to the study and analysis of how mass, energy, and momentum move and distribute in different media. These phenomena are fundamental in various engineering fields such as chemical, mechanical, civil, and environmental engineering. Therefore, understanding and controlling these phenomena is crucial for the efficient design and operation of systems and processes in engineering. Additionally, it is well known that an efficient and versatile way to approach the problems of transport phenomena in engineering is through computational fluid dynamics (CFD). For this Special Issue, we call for a wide range of papers addressing computational modeling applied to transport phenomena, which can be supported by analytical and/or experimental approaches. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: internal and external flows, multiphase flows, heat exchangers, refrigeration systems, chemical reactors, sediment transport, pollutant dispersion, wastewater treatment, and renewable energy systems.

Additionally, this Special Issue will also publish selected papers from the 10º MCSul/X SEMENGO (MCSul: Southern Conference on Computational Modeling; SEMENGO: Seminar and Workshop on Ocean Engineering; https://www.even3.com.br/10-conferencia-sul-em-modelagem-computacional-10-mcsul-e-o-x-seminario-e-workshop-em-engenharia-oceanica-x-semengo-435016/) held on 4–6 December 2024, in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil.

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. 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.
