Abstract
Abstract In the present study, a combined kinetic and heat transfer model was developed to study the kinetics and predict thermal runaway of vinyl chloride (VC) suspension polymerization. Reactor temperature, monomer conversion, mole of initiator, radical concentrations in the two phases (i.e., VC‐rich phase and PVC‐rich phase), and average molecular properties were mapped during non‐isothermal processes. Meanwhile, the risk of thermal runaway was evaluated using S–Z (divergence) and H–J criteria. Simulation results show that a lower jacket temperature T j and a larger heat transfer coefficient U are able to postpone or even avoid the risk of thermal runaway. Both of the criteria serve well for the prediction of thermal runaway during non‐isothermal processes. To prevent the occurrence of thermal runaway to the greatest extent, model‐based design of strategies for an isothermal polymerization process was done. Specifically, either jacket temperature T j or heat transfer coefficient U can be fine‐tuned to maintain a 50°C isothermal process.

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 it
