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: 1.5 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 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: 0.00017 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: 0.279 SNIP: 0.544 CiteScore™:: 2.5 H-Index: 22

RESUMO

A general mass transfer model based on a first-order approximation of Fick's law at the gas-liquid interface is implemented in the multiphase volume-of-fluid model of the commercial computational fluid dynamics code Fluent 19.2. Two methods are employed to discretize the concentration gradient. The first, PLIC-1, assumes the characteristic length to be the normal distance from the interface to the center of gravity to the truncated cell. The second, PLIC-2, simply assumes the characteristic length to be the cubic root of the truncated cell volume. Both methods are tested against novel analytical solutions on different cell topologies. The results using PLIC-1 are very satisfactory for any type of grid. The PLIC-2 method shows errors up to 10% on a Cartesian grid and below 1% on unstructured meshes. In both cases, the PLIC-1 method shows an error three times smaller than that of PLIC-2. Hence, PLIC-1 is the recommended method when a high accuracy is required on any type of convex grid.
