Siphon Removal of Cohesionless Materials
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents the results of an experimental study of the scour created by a siphon flow through a vertical tube of diameter d of 9.7 to 20.4mm in a cohesionless sand bed of approximately uniform size D of 0.58mm. The position of the inlet of the siphon tube ranged from −101.6 to 6.4mm relative to the surface of the sand bed and the velocity of flow through the tube U0 varied from 0.34 to 6.41m∕s. Data from this and previous studies are used to show the radial extent of the scour hole and the maximum depth of scour depend primarily on the densimetric Froude number F0, where F0=U0∕g(Δρ∕ρ)D, g is the gravitational acceleration, Δρ is the difference in density between the sediment and fluid, and ρ is the density of the fluid. A theoretical analysis of the problem is used to further assess the data and it is found that viscous effects are also important to consider. The profile of the scour hole at equilibrium, for all tube positions, is found to be similar when the scour depth is measured relative to the tube inlet.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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.
