Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, various numerical methods have been applied in the areas of electrical engineering and renewable energy sources to compute the spatial distributions and/or time variations in physical fields. Common numerical methods include finite element, finite difference, finite volume, boundary element, and least squares methods. Some of these methods, such as the finite element method, are progressively being standardized in electrical engineering. In particular, each of the listed methods can be used to compute electric, magnetic, thermal, or mechanical fields of two or more of these fields. Mathematical models based on one of these numerical methods can be steady-state or dynamic, as well as linear or non-linear. Transient problems of physical fields appear as a special type of dynamic numerical models. Numerical methods can be used to compute individual or coupled fields in and around components of power systems, such as power cables, overhead lines, busbars, electrical machines (generators, power transformers, and motors), photovoltaic panels, and thermoelectric modules, among others. This Special Issue is devoted to all of these problems.
Key topics of interest include
- Ampacity computations for underground, submarine and overhead power cables;
- Ampacity computations for overhead lines and busbars;
- Numerical verification of standardized ampacity computation methods;
- Numerical modeling of hotspots in electric power components;
- Numerical modeling of hotspots in renewables;
- Numerical modeling of coupled fields in electric power components;
- Numerical modeling of coupled fields in renewables.

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. Mathematics is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
