Summary
Today, energy supply, clean and renewable energy, energy consumption and storage, environmental concerns like global warming, and sustainable development represent significant global challenges. In this broad context, improving heat exchange efficiency emerges as a potential solution. In fact, in many energy-related technologies, advancing knowledge, theories, and cutting-edge heat transfer technologies is crucial. Various areas can be explored, such as utilizing new working fluids, nanofluids, optimizing heat exchangers and storage systems, and developing heat pumps and their applications. For example, particular attention should be given to the use of CFD for the optimization of heat transfer phenomena in devices connected to the use of renewable energies.
In this context, this Special Issue of Frontiers in Heat and Mass Transfer focuses on the latest advancements and future perspectives in heat transfer efficiency. We welcome papers on, but not limited to, the following topics:
· Nanofluids and their applications
