Recent Developments in Heat Transfer: Towards Climate Neutrality

Dear Colleagues,

The pursuit of climate neutrality requires global systemic actions involving the use of solutions aimed at reducing emissions. Changes must be introduced in all sectors affecting climate change, namely power engineering and district heating, construction, transport, industry, as well as agriculture and forestry. Comprehensive actions are needed to increase energy efficiency, use of modern low-emission technologies and materials, use of renewable energy sources and waste heat recovery, closed-circuit economy, etc. These actions are closely related to the conditions and dynamics of the heat transfer process in the solutions used. Analysis of models of the heat transfer process allows for optimization of solutions and reduction in costs. The use of modern heat exchange solutions in various economic sectors leads to improved energy efficiency and increased energy security and prevents environmental degradation. Changes must also be made in thermal and energy management models and society's consumption models as an element of the energy transformation towards climate neutrality and preventing the deepening of energy poverty.

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. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
