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

The droplet spectra of a TeeJet XR8003VS flat-fan nozzle were determined with respect to various size parameters and the vertical component of the drop velocity (m/s). Measurements were taken at nine 5-cm intervals along half the long axis and at twenty-five 1-cm intervals across the entire short axis of the spray cloud, 30 cm below the nozzle, using an Aerometrics PDPA-100 1D phase/Doppler particle measuring system. The study was initiated to determine an optimum means of assessing spray clouds from agricultural flat-fan nozzles using the PDPA particle sizing system. The results show that a single long traverse of the long (x axis) of the spray cloud is the closest approximation to a complete assessment of the entire spray cloud, and that accurate positioning of the nozzle prior to measurements is important. The results also may be of use in modeling spray clouds under agricultural booms.
