Office of Distributed Energy SECTION 1. Advanced Natural Gas Recipricating Engine Development Subtask 1.1 Rotating Arc Spark Plug RASP (PIC 466)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Stable operation of an engine at extremely lean conditions depends upon the ability to consistently ignite the air and fuel mixture in the cylinder. The Rotating Arc Spark Plug (RASP) uses a magnetic field to rotate the spark, therby increasing the volume occupied by the spark during each event. The increased spark volume may improve ignition characteristics at lean conditions. The rotation may also result in improved wear and extend plug life. Highlights 1. Multiple iterations of the Rotating Arc Spark Plug were evaluated in a small natural gas engine. No improvement in performance over either standard J-plugs or annular gap spark plugs was detected. 2. The results have been summarized and will be presented at the ASME Fall Conference in Ottawa in September. The final report has been submitted to the conference organizers as paper number ICEF2005-1293.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
