Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is an invaluable tool that has been broadly used to test and predict the behavior of gasses, liquids, plasmas, soils, and fluid–structure interactions dealing with the sustainability and resilience of natural ecosystems and urban environments. Challenges related to air pollution, renewable energy, climate change, and water quality are among the most frequently addressed, and they define the core of this Special Issue. Due to the growing interest in predicting the performance of devices that could be used in future missions, we welcome papers addressing those challenges not only on Earth but also in extraterrestrial environments.
The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Pollution dispersion and mitigation;
- Supersonic flows in combustion and detonation;
- Wave and wind energy generation;
- Inshore and offshore winds;
- Weather forecasting;
- Aerodynamic design of vehicles;
- Percolation and filtering of water;
- CFD in extraterrestrial environments (atmospheres and seas);
- Grid based vs SPH simulations.

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. Fluids 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 1800 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.
