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: 0.6 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: 0.00013 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: 0.14 SJR: 0.201 SNIP: 0.313 CiteScore™:: 1.2 H-Index: 13

ABSTRACT

A wind tunnel investigation was carried out to examine the surface flow and skin friction distribution within a yawed cavity having a rectangular aspect ratio of 11.79 and a width/depth ratio of 2. The cavity was placed flush with a ground plane and subjected to a turbulent boundary layer flow at a Mach number of 2 and a Reynolds number of 7.3 × l04, based on momentum thickness. The data obtained were video recordings of liquid crystal surface coatings that changed color with shear stress and with changes in yaw angle. It was found that the crystals could provide some assistance in describing the type of fluid motion that occurs in open and closed types of cavities. At low angles of yaw, the fluid motion is one of low shear, whereas at the higher yaw angles, large shear stress areas within the cavity are observed. This is accompanied by increased recirculation regions near the upstream end of the cavity at high yaw angles, with several different vortices being set up at the downstream end to eject excess fluid.
