Estimation of mean turbulent kinetic energy and temperature variance dissipation rates using a spectral chart method
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A method aimed at estimating εk and εθ, respectively, the mean dissipation rates of turbulent kinetic energy k and half the temperature variance θ2/2, is developed for slightly heated turbulent flows of air. It is limited to a Prandtl number near unity and applicable to flows where temperature can be treated as a passive scalar. A significant advantage of the method is that εk and εθ can both be estimated from the measurement of a temperature frequency spectrum, Gθθ(f). The method relies on the collapse in the dissipative range of one-dimensional temperature spectra, ϕθ(k1η), when normalized with εθ, εk, and ν. This collapse ensues from a similarity analysis of scale-by-scale budgets of the second-order structure function for the temperature. A generic spectrum ϕθG(k1η), defined in the wavenumber range 0.07 ≤ k1η ≤ 0.7, is used to construct a spectral chart. The method has been tested in several flows and found to be reliable. In particular, it is tested on the axis of a slightly heated round jet, where εk and εθ can be estimated accurately via the budgets of k and θ2/2, and the agreement between these estimates and the spectral chart results is almost perfect.

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.
