Abstract
The unsteady wake downstream of a spinning sphere with a Reynolds number of 7930 (Re=UoD/ν, based on the sphere diameter and the free-stream velocity) and a range of spinning ratios (the ratio between the surface velocity and free-stream velocity, α=Vs/Uo) from 0 to 6.0 were studied using time-resolved particle image velocimetry. The Reynolds stresses and proper orthogonal decomposition results indicated that the wake exhibited distinct features in different spinning ratio regimes, and the state of the boundary layer played an important role in forming these features. In regime I (α≤0.25) where the boundary layer around the sphere was laminar, a pair of counter-rotating vortices emerged in the wake with unsteady size and position. The bottom boundary layer transitioned from laminar to turbulent as α increased from 0.25 to 0.75 (regime II). The transition caused a significant increase in the stream-wise stress as the unsteadiness becomes more coherent. The sphere was gradually covered by the turbulent boundary layer as α increased in regimes III and IV (0.75<α≤3.0). A large separation bubble was created in cases with α>3.0 (regime V); flow structures with a large stream-wise momentum separated from the bubble and was shed downstream with a strong flapping motion in the vertical direction, leading to large vertical stress behind the sphere.

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 it
