We are interested in the best research from across the field of energy, with our broad scope ensuring that the work published reaches the widest possible audience.
The journal covers disciplines and fields related to oil and gas prospecting, production, processing and utilization as well as that of other energy sources. The articles are either based on the scientific and technical activities of the French Petroleum Institute (IFP) or written by engineers, scientists and technicians from around the world.
Petroleum Exploration and Development aims to provide contribution to the scientific and technological development of petroleum exploration and production and to promote the innovative ability of scholars and workers. The journal publishes, in both Chinese and English, original papers on all aspects of petroleum sciences, including petroleum geology, geophysics, geochemistry, exploration and development of oil and gas fields, reservoir engineering, reservoir protection and stimulation, oil storage and transportation, oil and gas chemistry, petroleum machinery, petroleum business administration and history of petroleum industry, etc.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

The journal covers the character, properties, science, and processing aspectsof heavy oil, tar sand bitumen, and residua. Articles also address the environmental aspects of petroleum recovery, refining, and use. Petroleum Science and Technology also publishes selected proceedings from a conference or a collection of papers dealing with a single relevant topic. The journal is of particular interest to the analytical chemist, petroleum chemist, and the chemical and process engineer. Petroleum Science and Technology is changing its print and online frequency. Institutional subscribers will now receive 12 free online and 6 print issues while personal subscribers will continue to receive 6 print issues containing all of the monthly online articles. Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.
Physica C (Superconductivity and its Applications) publishes peer-reviewed papers on novel developments in the field of superconductivity. Topics include discovery of new superconducting materials and elucidation of their mechanisms, physics of vortex matter, enhancement of critical properties of superconductors, identification of novel properties and processing methods that improve their performance and promote new routes to applications of superconductivity.The main goal of the journal is to publish:1. Papers that substantially increase the understanding of the fundamental aspects and mechanisms of superconductivity and vortex matter through theoretical and experimental methods.2. Papers that report on novel physical properties and processing of materials that substantially enhance their critical performance.3. Papers that promote new or improved routes to applications of superconductivity and/or superconducting materials, and proof-of-concept novel proto-type superconducting devices.The editors of the journal will select papers that are well written and based on thorough research that provide truly novel insights.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Power Technology and Engineering deals with all aspects of electrical power generation and distribution, with an emphasis on sustainable technologies and environmentally sensitive issues. Topics covered include construction and operation of thermal (fossil and nuclear) and hydroelectric power stations, electric lines and equipment, renewable sources of energy, and environmental issues. Power Technology and Engineering publishes articles selected from the Russian journals Gidrotekhnicheskoe Stroitel’stvo (Hydrotechnical Construction) and Elektricheskie Stantsii (Electrical Power Stations). Articles are selected on the basis of their scientific and technical quality, their focus on the above themes, and the significance to a worldwide audience of this leading Russian research and practice. Power Technology and Engineering is a continuation of the Kluwer/Consultants Bureau journal Hydrotechnical Construction, which was a translation of Gidrotekhnicheskoe Stroitel’stvo exclusively. The change improves the scope of the journal and makes two valuable sources of Russian research available internationally. Each annual volume of Power Technology and Engineering will contain six issues. Volume 36 (2002) is to be published in July–December 2002, following completion of Volume 35 of Hydrotechnical Construction, which was published from July 2001 to June 2002. From Volume 37 (2003) Power Technology and Engineering will be published bimonthly on a calendar year (January to December) basis.
Significant changes are occurring in the field of power and energy, from the new types of plant being introduced in the developed world to the growth in electricity demand in the developing nations. Environmental legislation is affecting the use of fossil fuels and encouraging renewable energy developments. Safety, waste disposal and new plant financing continue to be concerns for nuclear power, while the increased availability of natural gas is being exploited in combined cycles and cogeneration. Against this changing scene, scientific discovery, increased computer power and new material developments are producing cost savings and plant performance improvements.The Journal of Power and Energy covers all aspects of energy conversion systems, including power generation, transmission and use. In addition to technical developments, interests include environmental, economic and policy issues. The scope extends to include:Power and Energy Systems Power generation using innovative and conventional sources including fossil, nuclear, and renewable systems. Energy storage, regenerative and fuel cell systems. Advanced and innovative cycles. Energy systems including energy management in buildings, air conditioning, refrigeration, heat pipes.Issues Emissions reduction, environmental policy, carbon mitigation including both efficiency improvements and CO2 capture and storage, fuel flexibility, hydrogen economy, waste management, power plant health and safety. Decommissioning, disposal and storage of nuclear plant and material. Changes in infrastructure, transmission and distribution. Demand reduction -advanced control, hybrid photovoltaic and ventilation.Components Typically boilers, gas, steam and wind turbines, compressor, combustion and turbine systems, I.C. engines (non-automotive), heat exchangers and cooling systems, heat recovery steam generators, pumps and fans.Techniques and methods The journal covers thermo-economic optimisation, health monitoring, life cycle analysis, operation and maintenance, and energy systems instrumentation, simulation and management. We also publish papers on fluid mechanics and thermodynamics, including CFD, heat transfer and combustion if they are clearly related to power systems or their components.
