Innovative moisture/icing-resistant flush air data system
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bombardier Aerospace contracted the Flight Research Laboratory of the National Research Council of Canada (NRC) to develop a Flush Air Data System (FADS) capable of operation following transit through adverse weather conditions for use on Bombardier's test aircraft. The NRC's existing FADS design was modified to incorporate water traps at the inlet of each of the four pressure ports to prevent moisture ingestion into the pressure lines. A heating system was designed to reduce moisture condensation in the pressure lines. After fabrication of the final prototype was completed, experimental bench tests were performed to demonstrate that the FADS had met the performance requirements for flight through adverse conditions and that the system was safe for flight. The FADS was then sent to Bombardier Flight Test Centre and installed on a Bombardier Global 5000 aircraft for flight testing. To evaluate the FADS performance, manoeuvres were performed where the FADS was exposed to adverse weather conditions; the FADS angle of attack and angle of sideslip measurements were unaffected by these conditions during the tests. The FADS was calibrated using NRC's GPS-based Simultaneous Calibration of Air Data Systems (SCADS) technique by developing angle of attack and angle of sideslip calibration coefficients. The calibration coefficients were then validated across the aircraft's flight envelope and weather requirements. From the results of the bench tests and flight tests, it was concluded that the new FADS was able to measure angles of attack and sideslip after flight through adverse weather conditions accurately. © NRC Canada 2012.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
