每年出版12次，《數值傳熱B部分-基本原理》論述了熱質傳遞和流體流動問題數值求解方法的所有方面。該雜志的范圍也包括復雜的物理現象的建模，作為獲得數值解的基礎，并且包括支持方法論發展的數值或實驗結果。所有提交的手稿都要經過編輯的初步評估，如果認為適合進一步考慮，還要經過獨立的匿名專家評審。編輯保留不經同行評審而拒絕任何不適合的論文的權利。

Published 12 times per year, Numerical Heat Transfer Part B-Fundamentals addresses all aspects of the methodology for the numerical solution of problems in heat and mass transfer as well as fluid flow. The journal’s scope also encompasses modeling of complex physical phenomena that serves as a foundation for attaining numerical solutions, and includes numerical or experimental results that support methodology development. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. The Editor reserves the right to reject without peer review any papers deemed unsuitable.
