Summary

Introduction

Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. This Special Issue consists of thirteen articles dedicated to convective stagnation point flows [1,2], non-Newtonian fluid heat transfer [3,4], fin efficiency [5], bubbly flow and heat transfer [6,7], cooling of heated elements [8,9], phase change materials application [10], vortex heat transfer enhancement [11], flow and heat transfer in engineering systems [12,13]. Numerical analysis in these mentioned papers [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13] has been performed using MATLAB software [1,2,3,6,13], ANSYS software [5,9,12,13], COMSOL software [10] and using developed in-house computational codes [4,7,8,11].
