Advances in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Simulation of Thermal Chemical Processes

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue of Processes aims to highlight recent advances in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation of thermal–chemical processes. The CFD simulation of thermal chemical processes has become a powerful tool for understanding and optimizing complex chemical reactions, heat transfer, and mass transport phenomena. This Special Issue seeks to bring together cutting-edge research and innovative applications in this field, focusing on the development and validation of novel numerical methods, algorithms, and CFD software applications. We invite contributions that showcase the use of CFD simulations to study a wide range of thermal–chemical processes, including but not limited to combustion, pyrolysis, gasification, torrefaction, catalysis, and electrochemistry, among others. The Special Issue will also explore the integration of CFD simulations with experimental techniques and machine learning approaches to improve the accuracy and efficiency of process modeling and optimization. The goal of this Special Issue is to provide a comprehensive overview of the latest advances in CFD simulation of thermal–chemical processes and to foster a deeper understanding of their potential applications in various industries, including energy, environment, and manufacturing.

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 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 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.
