Aims and Scope

Founded in 1992, JOURNAL OF THERMAL SCIENCE, an international multi-disciplinary journal of energy and power sciences in English language sponsored by the Institute of Engineering Thermophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, publishes high quality papers of original work on experimental, numerical and theoretical investigations from contributors throughout the world.

The scope of the Journal covers the following aspects: engineering thermodynamics, fluid mechanics, aerothermodynamics of internal flows, heat and mass transfer, combustion and reaction; sustainability of energy systems; energy conservation and storage; energy efficiency and climate change mitigation; renewable energy; nuclear energy; building, urban and distributed energy systems; cooling and refrigeration, heat pump; transport energy and emissions; operation, diagnostics and control of energy systems; energy policy and management. Review papers and scholarly research articles of high scientific/technical quality related to the development, advancement, and improved understanding of energy, power and environment sciences are sought. The Journal also incorporates technical notes, short communications, and discussions on previous published papers.

Verified Reviews

Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.

Overall, it can be considered a journal with relatively fast processing. The submission was made on January 5th, and revision suggestions were given on February 11th. Three reviewers provided over 20 comments, but many of them were repetitive, with around eight or nine actual suggestions. A reply was required within 21 days, but I procrastinated and only submitted the revised version on March 2nd. The actual time spent on revisions was about four to five days, and the reply consisted of eight pages of A4 paper. I received an acceptance email on March 25th. The entire process took two months and 20 days, and if the revision was done quickly during that period, it could have saved another week of time. Now I am waiting to pay the fees.

2022-04-14

The mainstream SCI journals organized by the Institute of Engineering Thermophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, have improved in terms of journal quality and review requirements compared to before. They have now also reached the 2nd quartile. Let's support domestic journals! However, the only drawback is that the publication speed is too slow now. It seems that due to the epidemic, some publication times have been delayed, resulting in a backlog of manuscripts.

Tips: This journal is not open access and requires a publication fee, approximately 500RMB per page. Just a little complaint, hoping that the publication fee can be abolished soon.
