Abstract
In this study, the flow field of a cylindrical pulp mixing chest equipped with a side-entering impeller was modeled using commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software (Fluent) with the rheology of the pulp suspension approximated using the Herschel−Bulkley model. To validate the model, CFD results for the power and velocity field were compared to experimental data. Ultrasonic Doppler velocimetry (UDV), a noninvasive fluid flow measurement technique for opaque systems, was used to measure pulp suspension velocity. In order to calculate the mixing time, an unsteady state solver in Fluent was applied to monitor the tracer species concentration as a function of time in the tank. The validated CFD model provided useful information regarding the mixing time and the formation of the cavern around the impeller in the mixing of pulp suspension. The size of cavern predicted by the CFD model was in good agreement with that calculated using Solomon's model.

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
