The discussions in the journal mainly cover the fields of Mathematical analysis, Mechanics, Applied mathematics, Heat transfer and Discretization. While Mathematical analysis is the focus of the journal, it also provided insights into the studies of Thermal conduction, Geometry, Boundary (topology) and Finite element method. Numerical Heat Transfer Part B-fundamentals addresses concerns in Thermal conduction which are intertwined with other disciplines, such as Transient (oscillation) and Heat flux.
The journal investigates Geometry research which frequently intersects with Compressibility. The journal explores topics in Mechanics which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Classical mechanics and Thermodynamics. Topics in Applied mathematics were tackled in line with various other fields like Computational fluid dynamics, Grid, Mesh generation, Mathematical optimization and Finite volume method.
The work on Heat transfer tackled in the journal brings together disciplines like Convection, Computer simulation, Fluid dynamics, Radiative transfer and Numerical analysis. The studies tackled, which mainly focus on Radiative transfer, apply to Scattering as well. The journal connects the study in Discretization with the closely related area of Navier–Stokes equations.
The published papers generally zeroe in on subjects such as Mathematical analysis, Mechanics, Applied mathematics, Geometry and Heat transfer. The works on Mathematical analysis tackled in the journal publications bring together disciplines like Boundary (topology) and Finite element method. The published papers explore topics in Mechanics which can be helpful for research in disciplines like Classical mechanics and Thermodynamics.
Mechanics, Applied mathematics, Work (thermodynamics), Mathematical analysis and Heat transfer are the subjects of interest in the journal. The research on Mechanics tackled can also make contributions to studies in the areas of Porosity and Nozzle. The journal explores research in Applied mathematics alongside concepts in Navier–Stokes equations and other areas of study in Petrov–Galerkin method, Mesh free and Iterative method.
The research on Work (thermodynamics) featured in it combines topics in other fields like Stability (learning theory), Mixed convection heat transfer, Inverse problem and Thermal buoyancy. The study of Domain decomposition methods and how it intertwines with concepts under Transient (oscillation) were explored in the presented Mathematical analysis research. Issues in Heat transfer were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Square (algebra) and Rotation.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Numerical Heat Transfer Part B-fundamentals (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Numerical Heat Transfer Part B-fundamentals (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 8.33% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 27.27% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 0.00% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 22.73% of all publications and 50.00% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
