Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

In light of the development of new processors and increasingly advanced computing capacity, numerical simulation tools have provided increased support for various areas of engineering. However, they are now a necessary tool for improving and optimizing processes. For this reason, Processes launched this Special Issue, Numerical Simulation and Heat Transfer in Material Processing and Casting Engineering, to showcase to the scientific community advances in manufacturing processes involving different heat transfer mechanisms.

This Special Issue will focus on heat transfer processes in furnaces and reactors, steel manufacturing processes, ladle metallurgy, continuous casting, pyrometallurgy, continuous casting, reheating furnaces, heat treatment, boiling curves, etc.

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.
