Scientific Experiences in Energy and Thermal Engineering

Scope

Scientific Experiences in Energy and Thermal Engineering (SEETE) aims to provide a platform for the dissemination of high-quality scientific research, engineering innovations, and practical experiences in energy and thermal engineering. The journal seeks to advance fundamental knowledge and promote the development, integration, and application of energy and thermal technologies that improve energy efficiency, system performance, environmental sustainability, and societal well-being.

SEETE aims to bridge the gap between scientific research and practical engineering applications by publishing studies that provide new scientific insights, validated engineering solutions, innovative technologies, and evidence-based approaches to contemporary energy and thermal challenges. The journal encourages interdisciplinary research that supports the global energy transition, industrial decarbonization, sustainable development, and efficient utilization of energy resources.
