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

JP-10/air two-phase detonation is numerically studied using the Eulerian code to determine the accuracy of the numerical approach by comparing detonation velocities among three groups: the present study, Tangirala and Dean, and Cheatham and Kailasanath. It was found within those studies that JP-10/air detonation velocities were identical, leading to the conclusion that the present method was valid and numerical simulation could proceed. A two-dimensional numerical study was performed using a commercial code and it was discovered that the detonation velocity of a JP-10 droplet/air mixture (3 micron droplet case) is within 5% lower than that of a JP-10 gas/air mixture and that the Ispf of Pulse Detonation Engine (PDE) initially fueled with a gas/air mixture is slightly higher than that of a PDE initially fueled with a multiphase JP10 liquid/air mixture.
