Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
A net-zero emissions pathway has been announced in many countries to meet the goal of reduction of greenhouse emissions. Electrification is the primary way to approach net-zero emission, but internal combustion engines still provide energy like heat and power. As we know, internal combustion engines appear in automobiles, ships, airplanes, rockets, and so on, so developing many techniques to upgrade the efficiency and reduction the emissions of internal combustion engines. Low-carbon fuels of hydrogen, methane, methanol, ethanol, biofuel, and so on are all critical methods to reduce GHG emissions. Furthermore, heat recovery of engine control and emission reduction techniques also advance approaches to improve internal combustion engines’ efficiency. However, challenges of emission reduction and efficiency improvements are waiting for researchers to face. Researchers have developed internal combustion engines to improve efficiency, human life, and the environment.
This Special Issue on “Internal Combustion Engines and Fluid Systems in Control Systems” aims to organize advanced internal combustion engines and fluid system techniques to address the challenge of the internal combustion engines and their application field. Topics include but are not limited to new advanced internal combustion engine techniques;
- Combustion characteristics of new types of fuels in internal combustion engines;
- Internal combustion engines control and its application;
- Internal combustion engines emission treatment and abatement;
- New techniques for the fluid system include waste heat recovery, heat exchange, heat transfer, measurement techniques, and so on.

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. 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.
