Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Heat transfer is almost always accompanied by the generation, storage, transportation, and recovery of energy. An in-depth understanding of the physical mechanism of heat transfer has further promoted its wide application in energy systems. By enhancing heat transfer and improving the utilization and recovery rate of the energy system, the sustainable utilization of energy can be strengthened. Given the significance of heat transfer and energy systems, this Special Issue will focus on topics of emerging technologies and research on heat transfer and energy systems as outlined below.
This topical issue is dedicated to the frontiers of heat transfer and energy systems, ranging from emerging technologies and research on heat transfer to relevant industrial applications of energy systems.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Enhanced heat transfer;
- Phase change heat transfer;
- Radiative heat transfer;
- Energy storage;
- Thermal management;
- Thermal metamaterials.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. Sustainability is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
