Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Ventilation and airflow distribution are key factors involved in ensuring indoor air quality and energy efficiency in buildings. This Special Issue will collect and showcase the latest research findings in this field, especially in applications in large public buildings, industrial buildings, and special clean building environments. We pay special attention to the design of energy-efficient ventilation systems, the simulation and optimization of airflow dynamics, the monitoring and management of indoor air quality, and integration with smart building technologies.
The scope of the work includes, but is not limited to, the following:
- Ventilation system design and pollutant control strategies for industrial buildings;
- Ventilation system analysis and optimization for large-space public buildings;
- Airflow distribution and pollution control techniques for clean buildings;
- Thermal management and airflow distribution in data centers;
- Energy-efficiency analysis and energy-saving technologies for ventilation systems;
- Application of intelligent control in the management of ventilation systems;
- Ventilation strategies and sustainable design practices for green buildings;
- Research on ventilation safety and health impacts in special environments.
We sincerely invite scholars, researchers, and professionals from around the world to submit their high-quality research papers in these fields, thus jointly promoting the development of ventilation technology and the improvement of indoor air quality.

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. Buildings 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.
