JOURNAL METRICS

Impact Factor (JCR) 2023: 0.7 ℹImpact Factor (JCR):

The JCR provides quantitative tools for ranking, evaluating, categorizing, and comparing journals. The impact factor is one of these; it is a measure of the frequency with which the “average article” in a journal has been cited in a particular year or period. The annual JCR impact factor is a ratio between citations and recent citable items published. Thus, the impact factor of a journal is calculated by dividing the number of current year citations to the source items published in that journal during the previous two years.

5-Year Impact Factor: 0.8 ℹ5-Year Impact Factor:

A 5-Year Impact Factor shows the long-term citation trend for a journal. This is calculated differently from the Journal Impact Factor, so it is not simply an average of the Impact Factors in the time period. The Impact Factor itself is based only on Web of Science Core Collection citation data from the last three years and thus reflects only recent impact. The Journal Impact Factor is the average number of times articles from the journal published in the past two years have been cited in the Journal Citation Reports year.

CiteScore 2023: 1.9 ℹCiteScore:

CiteScore is the number of citations received by a journal in one year to documents published in the three previous years, divided by the number of documents indexed in Scopus published in those same three years.

SCImago Journal Rank (SJR) 2023: 0.23 ℹSCImago Journal Rank (SJR):

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Source Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP) 2023: 0.350 ℹSource Normalized Impact per Paper (SNIP):

SNIP measures a source’s contextual citation impact by weighting citations based on the total number of citations in a subject field. It helps you make a direct comparison of sources in different subject fields. SNIP takes into account characteristics of the source's subject field, which is the set of documents citing that source.

Abstract:

Integrated Planar Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (IP-SOFC), which utilise a Ni/YSZ based anode, have been operated under direct hydrogen-methane mixture fuel injection at 900 oC. This process has shown some disadvantages in fuelling to the IP-SOFC; producing carbon deposition from the methane in the fuel mixture, causing direct structural damage to the IP-SOFC surface and blocking the area of activation for reaction processes and reducing the performances. These factors were shown to adversely affect the performance of the IP-SOFC over time. The aim of this paper is to calculate the amount of carbon deposited through the use of temperature programmed oxidation (TPO). In addition, the distribution of carbon is studied and analysed on all parts of the IP-SOFC cells. The results show that both amorphous and graphitic carbon were formed causing microstructural damage thereby reducing the cell performance. Furthermore, the reaction temperature was demonstrated to increase the total amount of carbon deposition.
