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

ABSTRACT

Turbulent flow across a rotating circular cylinder is numerically investigated for five Reynolds numbers and five rotational speeds. Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method with Smagorinsky subgrid scale model is used for this purpose. Variations of the aerodynamics forces and the flow structure with spin ratio and Reynolds number are studied. The results showed that for the range of studied Reynolds numbers, drag force decreases with both spin ratio and Reynolds number, but lift force increases with spin ratio and decreases with Reynolds number. In case of flow structure, both the front stagnation point and the top separation point dislocate upward along the cylinder by increase of spin ratio and decrease of Reynolds number. Size of the vortices behind the cylinder is increased with both spin ratio and Reynolds number. Comparison of the LES results with the results from the other numerical or experimental works showed an acceptable correspondence. It is concluded that the LES method can be applied to highly recirculating flows with good level of accuracy and low computational cost.
