《熱科學與工程應用雜志》側重于傳播對應用熱科學和工程有永久興趣的信息，強調新技術和新興技術、重大問題、緊迫問題和關切，以及可應用于工業問題的新方法和方法。它補充了《傳熱學雜志》，該雜志專注于基礎研究。貢獻必須與一個行業、一個工業過程或一個設備有明確的相關性。主題領域可以像特定的現象或裝置一樣窄，也可以像系統一樣寬。該雜志發表了應用性質的原始研究；熱科學在工藝或系統中的應用；技術評論；以及確定在任何時間和長度尺度上解決工業問題的研究需求。貢獻應該描述與設備和裝置中的熱能傳輸、熱和化學系統以及熱力學過程相關的應用領域的研究。

The Journal of Thermal Science and Engineering Applications focuses on the dissemination of information of permanent interest in applied thermal sciences and engineering emphasizing new and emerging technologies, significant questions, pressing problems and concerns, and new methods and approaches that can be applied to industrial problems. It complements the Journal of Heat Transfer, which focuses on fundamental research. Contributions must have clear relevancy to an industry, an industrial process, or a device. Subject areas could be as narrow as a particular phenomenon or device or as broad as a system. The Journal publishes original research of an applied nature; application of thermal sciences to processes or systems; technology reviews; and identification of research needs to solve industrial problems at all time and length scales. Contributions should describe research in applied areas pertaining to thermal energy transport in equipment and devices, thermal and chemical systems, and thermodynamic processes.
