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: 1.7 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: 1.4 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: 0.6 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: 0.00072 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: 0.43 SJR: 0.318 SNIP: 0.568 CiteScore™:: 3.5 H-Index: 28

ABSTRACT

The paper presents generalizing relations to calculate heat transfer and hydraulic resistance in longitudinal flow of heat-transfer agents in the cavities of a heat exchanger with twisted tubes and the results of comparison of the thermohydraulic efficiency of the heat-transfer surfaces of the twisted tubes with the surfaces of smooth tubes and tubes having other heat-transfer intensifiers. It has been found that in the flow transition region Reynolds-related regimes with an advanced increase in the heat-transfer coefficient in comparison with the increase in the coefficient of hydraulic resistance is implemented. In a longitudinal flow past twisted tubes, a 1.5−3.5-fold increase in the heat-transfer coefficient is ensured, as compared to flow in smooth straight tubes. The estimation of the thermohydraulic efficiency of heat exchangers made by the method of effective parameters and the analysis of the efficiency of various heat-transfer surfaces made it possible to find the flow regions where the heat-exchange apparatuses with flow swirling by twisted tubes are advantageous over heat exchangers involving other methods of heat-transfer enhancement.
