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: 2.3 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: 0.2 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: 0.00037 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: 0.6 SJR: 0.433 SNIP: 0.593 CiteScore™:: 4.3 H-Index: 35

ABSTRACT

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the performance of plain fin heat exchangers (PFHE) under particulate fouling for a wider application potential. A simulated PFHE was subjected to accelerated fouling tests with aluminium oxide (6 μm) and ferric oxide (3 μm) particles suspended in water. Both plain fin and wavy fin corrugations were used. Experimental tests were performed under non-heating (30°C) and heating (105°C) conditions. In all tests, the deposition/time curves showed an asymptotic behaviour. Deposition rates were higher under heated conditions. Under isothermal conditions, the deposition appeared to be governed by mass transfer from the bulk suspension to the wall surfaces and the particle deposition was mainly due to the effect of Brownian diffusion. The theoretical predictions of mass transfer coefficients from a convective mass transfer correlation were in general in reasonable agreement with the mass transfer coefficients obtained from experimental data. The effect of surface temperature was to increase the bulk temperature, therefore the diffusivity of the depositing species. Increasing the bulk temperature from 8°C to 60°C also increased the deposition rate. The wavy fin heat exchanger showed higher deposit weights compared with the plain fin and the pressure drop was also higher. Increasing the fluid flow velocity (Re up to 2500), increased the deposit weight onto the plain fin geometry. For the wavy fin geometry, beyond Re > 1500, the deposit weight started to decrease.
