Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • The purpose of the listed models covers a variety of applications, including mechanistic understanding, investigations on flashing-light effect, design optimization, and optimization of operating conditions.

    “The purpose of the listed models covers a variety of applications, including the mechanistic understanding of photobioreactors [17-21], investigations on the flashing-light effect [22-31], photobioreactor design optimization [21,22,29,32-42] and optimization of operating conditions [26,34-36,43-45].”
  • The majority of gas-liquid flows in photobioreactor CFD models are modeled in the Eulerian-Eulerian formulation, as two interpenetrating continua.

    “According to Table 1, the majority of gas-liquid flows is modeled in the EulerianEulerian formulation [18,25-27,29-31,39-42,45,125,135,136], thus, as two interpenetrating continua.”
  • The literature includes models for two-phase gas-liquid flows, solid-liquid flows, or three-phase gas-solid-liquid flows.

    “The literature includes models for two-phase gasliquid flows [17-19,25,39-42,44,45,125,135], solid-liquid flows [21,23,24,34,36-38,126] or three-phase gas-solid-liquid flows [19,26-31,136].”
  • The most commonly used drag models for gas-liquid flows in photobioreactor models are the Schiller-Naumann, Grace, Ishii-Zuber and Tomiyama models.

    “According to Table 2, the most commonly used drag models for gas-liquid flows are the Schiller-Naumann [17,25,27,29], Grace [45,135], Ishii-Zuber [18,19,26,136] and Tomiyama models [30,31,125]”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
