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

ABSTRAKT

In recent years, the dynamics of micropolar fluids, originated from the theory of Eringen, has been a popular area of research. As the fluids consist of randomly oriented molecules, and as each volume element of the fluid has translational as well as rotational motions, the analysis of physical problems in these fluids has revealed several interesting phenomena, which are not found in Newtonian fluids. The present study presents a numerical study for transient natural convection heat transfer of a micropolar boundary layer flow near a vertical isothermal surface. The governing equations are formulated and solved numerically using the MackCormak’s technique. A comparison with previously published results on special cases of the problem shows excellent agreement. Representative results for the velocity, micro-rotation and temperature profiles are shown graphically for different values of material parameters. In general, it is found that the temperature increases inside the boundary layer for the micropolar flows as compared to the Newtonian flows.
