Abstract
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">Due to increased demand for improved fuel economy and reduction in CO2 emissions, active grille shutter (AGS) has been considered as one option to increase fuel economy by reducing vehicle drag resistance. An AGS system will allow airflow through the grille when demand on cooling system or air conditioning system is high. Under conditions of light load and moderate ambient temperatures and humidity, the grille does not have to be fully open. A reduction in the effective grille size opening can be achieved by either partially or fully closing the grille through a stepped speed motor actuator. When the grille opening size is reduced, under-hood airflow will decrease. Therefore, the operating points for the grille shutter should take into account the effect of temperature rise for under-hood and underbody components and the performance of the cooling and climate control systems. In this paper, a series of tests have been designed and conducted to evaluate the effect of the grille shutter on the air conditioning (AC) system performance, and power train cooling as well as under-hood and underbody components temperatures. Tests have been designed to determine the impact of AGS on the AC compressor and fan power consumptions, cooling system and climate control system performance. Tests were selected to cover wide range of ambient temperature, humidity, vehicle speed, and climate control settings. In this paper, the experimental test results are analyzed and presented. Recommendations for the selection of the grille shutter operating points are based on these test results, functional requirements of vehicle systems and components, and overall fuel economy benefits.</div></div>

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
