Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The entire modern civilization is based on combustion as the main source of energy, and combustion will likely remain the major provider of energy for industry, heating and transportation in the foreseeable decades. Next-generation combustion technologies are expected to be environmentally friendly, safe and energy-efficient. The strategy of improving energy production involves continuous optimization of traditional combustion schemes, as well as the development of novel advanced combustion technologies. The role of numerical methods in the design and development of such technologies is increasing.
The aim of this Special Issue is to collect the recent analytical, computational and experimental advances in the fields of reacting flows, including (though not limited to) premixed flame dynamics and morphology, laminar flames, turbulent burning, combustion instabilities, flame acceleration, deflagration-to-detonation transition, explosions, detonations and propulsion.

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.
