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: 2.3 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: 1.8 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: 0.2 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: 0.00037 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: 0.6 SJR: 0.433 SNIP: 0.593 CiteScore™:: 4.3 H-Index: 35

ABSTRACT

This paper experimentally investigates the heat transfer characteristics of Chinese RP-3 kerosene in the critical condition in a vertical tube. During the experiment, the inlet Reynolds number of the fuel changes from 3 × 103 to 4 × 104, and the Prandtl number changes from 2.8 to 9. Under constant pressure (5 MPa), the heat transfer characteristics of Chinese RP-3 kerosene in the critical condition were measured. The results showed that under constant heat flux (100 to 500 kW/m2), a fixed mass flow rate (7.2 kg/h), and a fixed inlet temperature (400 ± 3 K), the heat transfer characteristics of RP-3 kerosene are different for the upward flow and the downward flow; the heat flux and flow direction both influence the heat transfer characteristics. The pseudocritical temperature is a critical parameter to determine heat transfer enhancement under corresponding conditions. The results also show that the buoyancy effect still influences the heat transfer characteristics when the values of Gr/Re2.7 and Bo* are lower than 10−5 and 6 × 10−6 for the latter part of the test section, respectively, and the effect of flow acceleration can be ignored under the experimental conditions. Based on the experimental data, a reliable heat transfer correlation has been proposed to calculate the Nu number for the normal and enhanced heat transfer process of supercritical fuel in a vertical tube.
