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

Free convection heat and mass transfer of non-Newtonian power law fluid from a vertical surface embedded in a doubly stratified Darcy porous medium has been analyzed. The wall temperature and concentration are constant and the medium is linearly stratified in the vertical direction with respect to both temperature and concentration. A series approximation is made for stream function, temperature and concentration in terms of thermal stratification parameter. The flow, temperature and concentration fields are affected by the complex interactions among the diffusion ratio Le, buoyancy ratio N and stratification ratio Sr. The effects of power law index parameter and double stratification of the medium on non-dimensional heat and mass transfer coefficients is discussed.
