Aims & Scope

Publishing 18 issues per year, Heat Transfer Engineering is an unparalleled resource for key advances in the field of heat transfer for the practicing engineer and other workers in the field. The journal publishes analytical, numerical, and experimental articles of lasting interest in the general area of heat-mass transfer and the related fluid mechanics and thermodynamics. In a clear, easy-to-read format, the journal includes refereed papers of original work, state-of-the-art reviews, articles on new developments in equipment or practices, reviews of fundamentals, heat in history articles, book reviews, news items on people and companies in the field, advertising, and any other items that may be appropriate. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor and/or selected members of the Editorial Board, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees.
