Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This paper presents a simple correlation containing nine dimensionless parameters to predict the local convective boiling heat transfer within a microfin tube that was developed from a dataset that included a wide range of refrigerants, flow conditions, and hydraulic diameters. Flow boiling measurements from 36 studies were gathered to produce a dataset containing 29 refrigerants and 15 different hydraulic diameters ranging from 1.8 mm to 6.7 mm. The database was adjusted so that the definition of the Nusselt number, the Reynolds number, the heat flux, and heat transfer coefficient were all defined in the same way for each study. In addition, values for the most recent fluid properties were used for the calculation of dimensionless parameters that were used in the new correlation. The new correlation for microfin convective boiling predicted the measurements from the database to within 610.3% for pure-refrigerants and azeotropic mixtures and 612.3% for zeotropic mixtures.
