Flow of viscoelastic jet with moderate inertia near channel exit
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The steady-state moderately inertial jet flow of a viscoelastic liquid of the Oldroyd-B type, emerging from a two-dimensional channel, is examined theoretically in this study. Poiseuille flow conditions are assumed to prevail far upstream from the exit. The problem is solved using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. The small parameter involved in the expansions is the inverse Reynolds number. The flow and stress fields are obtained as composite expansions by matching the flow in the boundary-layer region near the free surface and the flow in the core region. The influence of elasticity on the shape of the free surface, the profiles of velocity and stress and the interplay between inertia and elasticity are explored. It is found that even for a jet with moderate inertia, elastic effects play a significant role, especially close to the channel exit near the free surface. It is also found that similar to the Newtonian case, the viscoelastic jet contracts downstream from the channel exit. However, in contrast to Newtonian jet, a viscoelastic jet is preceded by a flat region very close to the channel exit at which elastic and inertial effects are in balance. The extent of this region increases with elasticity. A momentum integral balance is applied to validate the theory and obtain the jet contraction ratio explicitly in terms of the Deborah number, viscosity ratio and Reynolds number.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
