Submitted to journal, 2020.03.24; With editor, 2020.03.24; Under review, 2020.03.26; Major revision, 2020.04.24; With editor, 2020.04.26; Reviewer invited, 2020.04.26; Under review, 2020.05.02; Ready for decision, 2020.06.01; Decision pending, 2020.06.05; Accept, 2020.06.06. The above are the timelines of the review process recorded in detail, for your information. It can be seen that the review time of the reviewers was basically finished in a month after under review; The comments of the reviewers were returned after major revision. Two of the reviewers required minor revision, one reviewer only have a word that the organization of the article was in a mess, which was opposite to the conclusion of the second reviewer: the organization of the article was good. It was estimated that this reviewer didn’t review it carefully. Ready for Decision and Decision Pending are respectively mean that the article is with associate editor and with editor-in-chief. The efficiency is high compared to other journals.

After submission, it was staying in the editor's hands for a week to find reviewers. Each time comments came back, the editor basically responded within 1 week. The submission cycle is mainly depending on the reviewer; the speed is okay. During the period, the reviewer delayed it for more than a month after one revision and I sent an email to urge. Three days later, the reviewer comments returned and it was accepted directly.

I've been waiting for a week, still no response from WE. Do you know how long it took for you to be rejected? It's better to just get it over with.

The submission was rejected and the reason given was that it did not fit within the scope of the journal.

I have also been in WE for 15 days, and the date has changed once.

I submitted the manuscript half a month ago and it is still in the "WE" status. It feels like the review process is seriously out of line with what I have seen before. Should I send an inquiry about the manuscript?

(0) Thank | Terry Chung

Just want to ask everyone, when submitting the initial draft, do we have to strictly limit the number of pages to be within 20 pages?

(0) Thank | 廷

Yes, I have been working for 10 days and still on WE, the date has changed once.

(0) Thank | KEEEV

It has been 13 days since I submitted my article, but it still hasn't been assigned to an editor. Is ENB really this slow now?

Share a submission experience: If there are issues with generating a PDF format when submitting paper materials, simply convert the file to .doc format.

The first ENB paper, focusing on thermal comfort, was assigned to Cao Bin for editing. Teacher Cao was very responsible, and the comments from the reviewers were very professional. The two rounds of revisions lasted for 4 months and were accepted on February 21st.
