Accepted on October 8, 2024.
The efficiency of CNF has improved significantly compared to before. The entire submission process took 3 months. The editor-in-chief responsible for my article was also very friendly. Wishing CNF continued success!

The first submission was rejected after a month, with one rejection and one minor revision before resubmission. The second submission was under review for over five months before receiving feedback and ultimately being accepted. The editor was quick to handle key points, such as the initial submission to the journal, assignment to an editor, and review feedback. However, the review process was slow due to only inviting three reviewers, leading to delays if any of them did not provide timely feedback.

The first review took 11 months, with two minor revisions and one major revision. The second review took one month, with one rejection and the editor requesting a major revision. The third review took one month, with one rejection, one minor revision (newly invited reviewer), and the editor requesting a minor revision. Finally accepted, it took one year and five months. It's really not easy.

The first article I read when I entered school was about combustion and flames, on October 1, 2021, I remember it very clearly. I have longed for this journal for a long time, submitted three times, the reviewers are very professional, but the process is slow. They are all experts in the field of combustion, and I have learned a lot. After three submissions, two major revisions, and one rewrite, it took a year and three months. I am filled with emotions, and finally fulfilled a wish.

I have been in the first instance for 11 months and just returned the opinion. I don't know why it took so long

After a year and a half, finally got hired after three rounds of review. Two reviewers had very positive feedback, while one had some issues but was also very professional. The final edit was accepted without sending it back to the reviewers

In June 2023, an article was accepted, which was submitted in August 2022. The review process was so long that the paper was downgraded from a top-tier journal in category one to category two upon acceptance. With the current trend, it seems like there is a possibility of it moving towards category three. It's quite sad to see a top journal fall to this level

I really appreciate and admire the chief editor Thierry Poinsot. He truly lives up to his reputation and has great vision

Isn't CNF stricter than PCI?

I want to publish in this journal so badly, even breaking my head, it can no longer be categorized, it can only be said to be the number one in the field

There are not many people who have dropped from the first district to the second district, and I feel quite shocked

Too slow, it took eight months to get accepted, and the impact factor has decreased

CNF is the official journal of the Combustion Institute. It is a top journal in the field of combustion, with fewer than 500 articles published each year and a very high level of recognition. 
Currently, it is difficult to get published in CNF and the review process can be lengthy. Articles that are of interest to the editors may be processed more quickly, but they will still undergo rigorous peer review. If I have good results, I will still choose CNF

Hello, it has been 7 days since I submitted my article. It is currently still in the "submitted to journal" status. Is this normal?

Brother, I have been waiting for five months for repairs and it is still "Under Review." Should I follow up?

How many reviewers does this journal usually have? It's been three months since I submitted it, but I still haven't received the first review comments.

Top journals in the field, this year PCI was not accepted. Trying CNF now, it has been two months since the first review and no feedback has been received yet. Hopefully it will be accepted, as it is highly recognized in the field of combustion. If one paper can be accepted, it would be considered a commendable publication.
