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: 1.2 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: 0.3 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: 0.00095 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: 0.28 SJR: 0.341 SNIP: 0.536 CiteScore™:: 1.9 H-Index: 57

ABSTRACT

Improved operation of kraft recovery boilers is expected to result from knowing how to obtain a controlled, well-defined droplet size distribution issuing from the black liquor spray nozzle. Black liquor drop size data were obtained from an environmentally acceptable spray facility capable of delivering liquor at normal firing temperatures using commercial nozzles. Image analysis techniques were developed from high-speed video images which gave good two-dimensional representations of black liquor sprays. Previous work showed that black liquor sprays have a characteristic size distribution which is determined by the fluid mechanical forces breaking up the liquid sheet issuing from the nozzle. This work has centered on applying flow pulsation as an independently controlled force on the sheet breakup process in an attempt to change the drop size distribution. Experiments are described which feature controlled frequency flow pulsations. Results are presented which show the dependence of median drop size on pulsation frequencies up to 450 Hz.
