Physics of Fluids is a peer-reviewed monthly scientific journal on fluid dynamics, founded by the American Institute of Physics in 1958, and is published by AIP Publishing, the not-for-profit publishing subsidiary of the American Institute of Physics. The journal focus is the dynamics of fluids—gases, liquids and multiphase flows—and the journal contains original research resulting from theoretical, computational and experimental studies.
Until 1988, the journal covered both fluid and plasma physics. From 1989 until 1993, the journal was split into two separate physics journals: Physics of Fluids A covered fluid dynamics, while Physics of Fluids B was on plasma physics. In 1994, Physics of Plasmas was split off and the fluid dynamics journal continued under its original name, Physics of Fluids.
The annual "François Naftali Frenkiel Award" was established by the American Physical Society in 1984 and rewards a young scientist who has published a paper—containing significant contributions to fluid dynamics—in Physics of Fluids during the previous year.
Physics of Fluids A, Physics of Fluids B, and Physics of Fluids were ranked 3, 4, and 6, respectively based on their citation impact from 1981–2014 within the category of journals on the physics of fluids and plasmas.[1] According to the Journal Citation Reports, the journal has a 2014 impact factor of 2.031.[2]
