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: 0.6 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: 0.6 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: 0.00013 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: 0.14 SJR: 0.201 SNIP: 0.313 CiteScore™:: 1.2 H-Index: 13

SINOPSIS

The Reduced-Fill Tank Pressure Control Experiment (TPCE/RF) is a space experiment developed to meet the need for a critical aspect of cryogenic fluid management technology: control of storage tank pressures in the absence of gravity by forced-convection mixing. The experiment used Freon-113 at near-saturation conditions at a constant 40% fill level to simulate the fluid dynamics and thermodynamics of cryogenic fluids in space applications. The objectives of TPCE/RF are to characterize the fluid dynamics of an axial jet-induced mixing in low gravity, evaluate the validity of empirical mixing models, and provide data for use in developing and validating computational fluid dynamics model of mixing processes. TPCE/RF accomplished all of its objectives inflight on the Space Shuttle flight in May 1996. The flow patterns observed generally agreed with a prior correlation derived from drop tower tests. Several existing mixing correlations were found to provide reasonable performance predictions. Low-energy mixing jets, dissipating on the order of 1% of the kinetic energy of previous mixer designs, were found to be effective and reliable at reducing thermal nonuniformities, promoting heat and mass active mixing, whether continuous or periodic, offers increased reliability and predictability in space cryogenic systems and can be accomplished with no significant boiloff penalty caused by kinetic energy dissipation.
