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

Most effective fin shapes for enhancing the heat transfer in in-tube, shell-and-tube and plate-fin condensers of refrigerants are discussed using dimensionless expressions for heat transfer coefficients. As for in-tube condensation, micro-fin tubes with trapezoid fins improve the heat transfer coefficient by twice or more as compared with smooth tubes. The enhancement factor of the local heat transfer coefficient and the penalty factor of the frictional resistance are also discussed. Optimally designed low-fin tubes in shell-and-tube condensers ensure ten times or more enhancement of heat transfer coefficients. The local and average Nusselt numbers for a vertical plate-fin condenser with serrated-fins are also presented. The Nusselt numbers are larger than those for plane plate condensers by about ten times.
