The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.7 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00016 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.18 SJR: 0.313 SNIP: 0.6 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 16

ABSTRACT

This paper reports the results of an experimental study to determine the effects of interaction between two cylinders of a pulse detonation engine as well as to estimate the thermal efficiency of the system with a turbine. An interaction between the tubes occurs if a diffracted shock wave propagates into the other tube, which disturbs its filling process. The system is able to be operated in 40 Hz per tube, which means 80 Hz in total. The thermal efficiency of this system was estimated by measuring work done by a compressor, driven by the turbine. It is concluded that for designing a multi-cylinder system, it is important to consider the interference between the tubes and the nozzle.
