Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy

Aims & Scope

The Journal of Power and Energy is a peer reviewed journal which covers all aspects of energy conversion thermo-fluid systems, including: renewable energy, power generation and its use.

In addition to technical developments, interests include environmental, economic and policy issues.

Turbomachinery, fuel cell systems, energy management, emission reduction, waste management, heat exchangers are principal but not exclusive, areas of focus.

The Journal of Power and Energy does not publish papers on electrical machines, electrical grid management or power electronics.

Papers that use modelling should include experimental data for validation.

If the concept being modelled is novel, then validation of sub-models should still be demonstrated.
