Hermes et al. concluded that the effect of cold surface contact angle on frost thickness was little when the contact angle was between 60° to 123° based on sensitivity analysis results.
“Hermes et al. concluded that the effect of cold surface contact angle on frost thickness was little when the contact angle was between 60 ◦ to 123 ◦ based on the sensitivity analysis results.”

Except Shin et al. [33] and Hermes et al. [34], all others ignored cold surface contact angle when developing frost thickness correlations on flat plates.

Surface roughness can impact the initial formation of frost because a rougher surface may provide more nucleation sites.
“the surface roughness, another surface characteristic, can also impact the initial formation of frost due to that more nucleation sites may be provided by a rougher surface [34].”

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.
