Two-dimensional simulation of unsteady heat transfer from a circular cylinder in crossflow
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The heat transfer from the surface of a circular cylinder into a crossflow has been computed using a two-dimensional model, for a range of Reynolds numbers fromRe=200 to 15550. The boundary-layer separation, the local and overall heat-transfer rates, the eddy- and flare-detachment frequencies and the width of the flares were determined from the numerical simulations. In this range of Reynolds numbers, the heat-transfer process is unsteady and is characterized by a viscous length scale that is inversely proportional to the square root of the Reynolds number. To ensure uniform numerical accuracy for all Reynolds numbers, the dimensions of the computational mesh were selected in proportion to this viscous length scale. The small scales were resolved by at least three nodes within the boundary layers. The frequency of the heat flares increases, and the width of each flare decreases, with the Reynolds number, in proportion to the viscous time and length scales. Despite the presence of three-dimensional structures for the range of Reynolds numbers considered, the two-dimensional model captures the unsteady processes and produced results that were consistent with the available experimental data. It correctly simulated the overall, the front-stagnation and the back-to-total heat-transfer rates.

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.
