Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to share the success of our Special Issues “Electric Machinery and Transformers” and “Electric Machinery and Transformers II”.

In the first volume, we successfully published 12 papers: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies/special_issues/Electric_Machinery_Transformers

In the second volume, we successfully published 7 papers: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/energies/special_issues/O0245FP2QJ

We are now preparing to launch the third volume of this Special Issue, “Electric Machinery and Transformers III”.

With rapid developments in materials and semiconductor devices, electric machines and transformers have evolved considerably over the past 10 years and have been used in new applications, such as in e-mobility, aerospace technology, and renewable energy production, where stringent requirements for a high power density, low weight, compact size, and low cost should be met. Thus, it is a necessity to establish new paradigms to design, construct, and select materials and drive systems for electric machines and transformers. Therefore, the purpose of this Special Issue is to facilitate a platform for disseminating new findings on any aspect of electric machines and transformers.

Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:

  • New materials used in electric machines and transformers;
  • Novel designs for electric machines (synchronous motors and generators, brushless DC motors, induction motors, and conventional DC motors) for applications such as drive-by-wire, fly-by-wire, renewable energy production from wind farms, and precision control systems;
  • The design of low-frequency, high-frequency, and pulse transformers for various applications;
  • The development of mathematical models to investigate the performance of electric machines and transformers in a dynamic state as well as in a steady state;
  • Discussions of new methods for design optimization in electric machines and transformers;
  • Novel drive systems to increase the operation performance of electric machines;
  • The prediction of the time to failure of the insulation in large electric machines and transformers;
  • Studies of the thermal behavior of electric machines and transformers for various applications;
  • Acoustic analyses of electric machines and transformers using vibrations;
  • The continuous monitoring of the state of magnetic, as well as insulating, materials in electric machine and transformers during operation.

We welcome your submissions.

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.
