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: 1.1 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: 1.3 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: 0.0002 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: 0.33 SJR: 0.256 SNIP: 0.49 CiteScore™:: 2.4 H-Index: 23

ABSTRACT

This paper investigates the effects of efflux velocity and buoyancy on the flow dynamics of round jets with coflowing hot ambient. Such jets are relevant to the mixing of fuel and air that occur in various combustion devices. The governing equations for the jet flow are solved using the Standard k-ε model, Fully Implicit Numerical Scheme (FINS) and Tridiagonal Matrix Algorithm (TDMA). Calculations are made to discern the effects of efflux velocity and buoyancy due to flow configuration on the mean and turbulent properties of the jets. Obtained results show that change in efflux velocity affects the jet flow largely but change in jet configuration affects the flow significantly at low efflux velocity only. Nonetheless mean vorticity remains unaffected against the change in jet configuration both at high and low efflux velocity.
