Abstract
When water evaporates at high rates, recent studies indicate thermal conduction to the interface does not provide enough energy to evaporate water at the observed rate and that it is perhaps thermocapillary convection that transports the remaining energy. This possibility is examined by applying the Gibbs dividing-surface approximation to develop an expression for the energy transported along the interface. When this energy transport rate is compared with that required to evaporate the liquid at the observed rate, it is found that a Gibbs excess property, the "surface-thermal capacity," can be evaluated. A series of 19 evaporation experiments has been conducted under conditions for which there was no buoyancy-driven convection and for which the evaporation rate was progressively increased. For Marangoni numbers, (Ma) less than approximately 100, the interface was quiescent and thermal conduction (the Stefan condition) correctly predicted the energy transport rate to the surface. For experiments with 100<Ma<22,000, thermocapillary convection was present and the thermal conduction did not fully account for the energy transport. However, if the surface-thermal capacity is assigned a value of 30.6+/-0.8 kJ/(m2K), then energy transport by thermocapillary convection and conduction provides the energy transport required to evaporate the liquid at the observed rate. For experiments with Ma>22,000, the interfacial flow was turbulent and viscous dissipation became important.

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
