Advancement in the Multiphase Flow in Fluid Machinery

Dear Colleagues,

Fluid machinery parts (such as pumps, water turbines, marine propellers) are important components to the overall functionality of the machines that rely on them. During the operation of the unit, due to the variety of water flow patterns and working conditions, there will be various multi-phase flows in the unit, such as gas flow, sand and gas flow, cavitation, vortex, etc., each of which will seriously affect the safe and stable operation of the unit. It is necessary to carry out relevant research to ensure the stability and safety of the operation of units. We welcome scholars to contribute to this Special Issue to promote their research into the complex multiphase flow in fluid machinery. This Special Issue covers, but is not limited to, a wide range of topics, including:

• New methods and models for numerical simulation of multiphase flow
• New experiment methods and equipment for multiphase flow research
• Cavitation vortex flow in hydraulic machinery
• Gas–liquid–solid three-phase flow of sediment laden water flow
• Multiphase flow in marine propellers

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. Journal of Marine Science and Engineering 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 2600 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.
