Multiphase Flow in Pipes with and without Porous Media

Dear Colleagues,

Multiphase flow (with/without heat transfer) is a common flow type in boilers in both conventional and nuclear power plants, petroleum pipelines, heat exchanger systems, biological systems, the food industry, and most chemical processes. The multiphase complexity lies in its transient nature and its frequent and unpredictable transitions between various types of flow patterns, such as bubbly, stratified smooth, stratified wavy, plug, semi-plug, annular, etc. This Special Issue of multiphase flow is devoted to recent advances in experimental measurements, new measuring techniques, and computational modeling of flow in pipes with and without porous media. Papers on induced turbulence due to multiphase flow are also considered.

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-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).
