Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is the second volume of “Energy Storage Systems and Thermal Management” (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/processes/special_issues/ZG44AZ7ND4).
Replacing conventional energy sources (fossil fuels) with renewable ones is a major goal worldwide. The main primary sources of renewable energy are solar energy, wind energy, hydraulic energy, tidal energy, geothermal energy, biomass energy, and others. The sustainable development of our society must be based on the use of these resources.
Solar energy, wind energy, and tidal energy are not continuously supplied. That is why it is necessary to use storage systems for the energy produced by these sources. The most common storage systems used at this moment are electric batteries and hydrogen tanks. In the case of electric batteries, research must focus on increasing specific power and specific energy, and for a longer duration of use. The improvement of hydrogen storage systems can give a significant advancement to its use.
Thermal management systems are based on thermodynamics and heat transfer. Such a system controls the temperature through technology. It can be applied in various fields: thermal management in electronics, thermal management for batteries, and thermal management for industry.
This Special Issue is addressed to the researchers whose field of study is thermodynamics, heat transfer, physics, chemistry and materials engineering.
Best regards,
Dr. Tudor Mitran

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
