Applied Heat Transfer

Dear Colleagues,

Heat transfer is one of basic tenants of engineering science, which affects almost all industrial sectors: power generation, refrigeration, automotive and aerospace, tertiary, and medical applications. In each application, methods of improving, attenuating, and controlling heat transfer receive considerable interest because of the potential benefits of increased efficiency, reduced equipment size, and lower operating costs.

Specific fields of concern to be considered in this research topic include, but are not restricted to, the following:

• Heat exchangers;
• Renewable energies and sustainable energies (Solar, geothermal, biomass, etc.);
• Energy efficiency (in buildings, in industry, etc.);
• Thermal comfort;
• Thermal energy storage;
• Cogeneration, trigeneration, quadrigeneration;
• Fluid mechanics, heat, and mass transfer;
• Electro-hydroconvection (EHD) and magneto-hydroconvection (MHD);
• Nanofluids heat transfer;
• Energy in buildings;
• Combustion;
• Energy and environment.

Therefore, authors are invited to participate in this topic and submit interesting research works, either research manuscripts or review manuscripts, in order to highlight the key results of research in areas relevant to heat transfer.
