Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The steady plane radial diverging flow of a viscous or inviscid particle-fluid suspension is studied using a novel two-fluid model. For the initial flow field with a uniform particle distribution, our results show that the relative velocity of particles with respect to the fluid depends on their inlet velocity ratio at the entrance, the mass density ratio and the Stokes number of particles, and the particles heavier (or lighter) than the fluid will move faster (or slower) than the fluid when their inlet velocities are equal (then Stokes drag vanishes at the entrance). The relative motion of particles with respect to the fluid leads to particle migration and the non-uniform distribution of particles. An explicit expression is obtained for the steady particle distribution eventually attained due to particle migration. Our results demonstrated and confirmed that, for both light particles (gas bubbles) and heavy particles, depending on the particle-to-fluid mass density ratio, the volume fraction of particles attains its maximum or minimum value near the entrance of the radial flow and after then monotonically decreases or increases with the radial coordinate and converges to an asymptotic value determined by the particle-to-fluid inlet velocity ratio. Explicit solutions given here could help quantify the steady particle distribution in the decelerating radial flow of a particle-fluid suspension.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
