Thermodynamics and Transport Properties of Fluids

Dear Colleagues,

I would like to introduce a Special Issue on “Thermodynamics and transport properties of fluids”. Despite of a quite long history of research into properties of the fluid state, the topic is still far from being completed. Research still delivers new interesting and often unexpected results. This Special Issue is intended to provide a forum for sharing recent advances and discuss new results in a very broad context of simple atomic and molecular fluids, non-ideal gases, multicomponent fluids, charged particle and plasma fluids, ionic liquids, liquid metals and related systems. The topics covered include but are not limited to fluids thermodynamics, structural properties, transport properties, collective modes and sound propagation, fluid phase equilibria, phase transitions and critical point, supercritical fluids, gas-fluid crossover, supercooled fluids, etc. Experimental results, numerical simulations, and theoretical developments are all welcome. This Special Issue will be of interest to a wide community across disciplines such as condensed matter and materials science, chemical physics, soft matter, and plasma physics.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Molecules 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 2700 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.
