Models for Gaseous Slip Flow in Non-Circular Microchannels
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Micro-scale fluid dynamics has received intensive interest due to the emergence of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology. Non-circular cross sections are common channel shapes that can be produced through a variety of micro-fabrication techniques. Non-circular microchannels have extensive practical applications in MEMS. Slip flow in noncircular microchannels has been examined by the authors and a review of several new models obtained by the authors is presented. These models are general and robust, and can be used by the research community for practical engineering design of microchannel flow systems. The reviewed models address: (i) fully developed slip flow in non-circular microchannels, (ii) hydrodynamically developing slip flow in non-circular microchannels, (iii) compressibility effects, and (iv) roughness effects. A model is proposed to predict the friction factor and Reynolds product fRe for fully developed and developing slip flow in most non-circular micro-channels. Compressibility effects on slip flow in non-circular microchannels have been examined and simple models are proposed to predict the pressure distribution and mass flow rate for slip flow in most non-circular microchannels. Finally, the effect of corrugated surface roughness on fully developed laminar flow in microtubes is examined. Simple analytical models are developed to predict friction factor and pressure drop in corrugated rough microtubes for continuum flow and slip flow.

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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
