Abstract
Abstract: The Ranque-Hilsch vortex tube is at the center of a renewed interest as a robust expansion device and a useful energy supply for transcritical CO2 vapor compression systems. This paper gives insights into thermodynamic paths along streamlines in a transcritical CO2 vortex tube employing computational fluid dynamics (CFD). A pressure-based coupled solver along with a low-Reynolds number turbulence model and the Span-Wagner equation of state constitutes the present numerical framework. Transcritical expansions are carried out at several cold mass fractions and both outer and inner vortex flow streamlines are tracked in the pressure-specific volume and pressurespecific enthalpy diagrams. The results confirm that the transcritical CO2 vortex tube is the seat of energy and temperature separations but they are inverted. A correlation between the flow transcriticality and vortex tube temperature and energy separation inversions is observed.

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
