I'm sorry, it is not clear what you want to do.

Do you intend to publish a new journal of your own or submit a paper for publication in a journal?
Are you asking which journal(s) to try?

And, like davenn, I don't know what you mean by a "DC had drive generator".
 
It's my typo. It should be "DC hand drive Generator".

I would like to publish journal on "DC hand drive Generator". But my lacking knowledge about the development of "DC hand drive Generator" makes me indecisive about the topic.
 
OK well in that case wouoldnt it be better to write on a subject that you are very familiar with ?
something you have had lots of experience with :)

Dave
 
Are you saying you want to write a journal about a construction project - or an article on hand powered generators?
 
Yeh - do you mean "journal" meaning "diary on a particular subject" or meaning "academic journal" like a magazine for like-minded people?

Do you intend to open the journal to submissions from others, which you publish - or is this just to be for you personally?

If we don't know what you intend, we cannot give you good advise.

All I can say from what you have written so far is that you should get more knowledge about your intended subject.
