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

Though 3D printers have become popular for manufacturing prototypes in a number of fields, they are rarely used to make injectors due to the relatively large tolerances and surface roughnesses. The flow characteristics of a swirl injector are known to depend mainly on its geometric shape and the injection conditions. In the present research, the possibility of whether or not a 3D printing technique can be applied to manufacture a swirl injector has been examined. Using different printing directions and methods, three close-type swirl injectors were created on a 3D printer using a light polymerized process. For each injector, cold-flow tests were conducted to measure the mass flow rates, discharge coefficients, and spray angles, while changing the injection pressures. The data obtained from the printed injectors have been compared with those from a metal injector manufactured by mechanical machining. The results show that the quality of the printed injector depended on both the printing direction and method. If one chooses a suitable method for printing a close-type swirl injector, the injector could have a discharge coefficient within a 7.5% error and a spray angle within a 12% error.
