Abstract
Abstract Experiments have been conducted to assess the effect of particle shape on pipeline friction in turbulent flow, using laboratory pipelines of nominal diameter 50 mm and 150 mm. The experiments were intended to examine the extent to which a fluid model is appropriate for slurries of this type, especially at high solids concentrations. The experiments confirm that fluid friction at low and moderate solids concentrations is proportional to slurry density, with particle shape being of minor importance. At high solids concentrations, additional increases in friction are observed and these depend upon the ratio of the solids concentration to the maximum settled concentration. Although this friction increase is qualitatively similar to that which would result from increased slurry viscosity, the evidence suggests that particle‐wall contact is the mechanism. However, the transition from turbulent to laminar flow indicates that an effective viscosity should be used in calculating critical Reynolds numbers.

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
