Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Two-phase flows are essential in a wide range of engineering and industrial processes, from energy systems and chemical manufacturing to environmental technologies. Their complex nature, characterized by interactions between phases and phenomena such as bubble formation, droplet dynamics, and interfacial heat and mass transfer, presents significant challenges for analysis and optimization. Recent advancements in modeling and simulation techniques, supported by experimental validation and innovative visualization methods, have enhanced our ability to predict and control two-phase flow behavior, paving the way for improved system performance and innovative applications.

This Special Issue invites high-quality contributions that explore the latest research, innovations, and applications in this field. The focus is on bridging theoretical developments, computational techniques, and practical implementations to address current challenges in two-phase flow studies. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Advanced computational techniques for modeling two-phase flows, including CFD- and AI-based approaches;
  • Simulation and analysis of interfacial dynamics and phase change phenomena;
  • Experimental studies for model validation and benchmarking;
  • Heat and mass transfer in two-phase systems;
  • Two-phase flow in energy systems, including nuclear reactors and renewable energy applications;
  • Multiphase flow behavior in microfluidics and porous media;
  • Visualization techniques and measurement methods for two-phase flows;
  • Development of empirical correlations and design frameworks for engineering applications.

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. 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.
