Abstract
NASA Astronaut Dr. Pettit carried out a thermocapillary flow experiment onboard the International Space Station in 2003. In this experiment a thin water film containing milk powder was formed in a stainless-steel wire ring. Heating a section of the ring by a soldering iron induced in the water film a thermocapillary flow towards the heated section of the ring (outward flow: cold to hot). This flow was in the opposite direction of the usually observed thermocapillary flows (inward flow: hot to cold). To shed light on this interesting phenomenon observed in the space experiment, we have conducted a three-dimensional numerical simulation study. Simulation results showed that the film geometry of the water film is a key factor determining flow direction and flow strength. When the liquid film free surfaces are convex, i.e., the water film volume is larger than that when the free surfaces are flat, an outward flow develops in the film as observed in the space experiment. However, when the free surfaces are concave, the simulation predicts an inward flow.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
