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

A novel infrared thermography-based visualization technique for the measurement of the liquid volume fraction and the droplet number density is presented for two typical automotive paint applicators. The applicators are a high-speed rotary bell atomizer and a high-volume low-pressure air-assisted atomizer. The technique uses an infrared thermography-based measurement in which a uniformly heated blackbody background acts as the emitter or thermal radiation source, and an infrared camera as the receiver. The infrared energy emitted by the radiation source crosses the spray and is captured by the receiver as an attenuation map. The attenuation map is postprocessed using theoretical and empirical equations to extract information from which the liquid volume fraction and the droplet number density are computed, with previously known Sauter mean diameter.
