Increasing cold-surface inclination significantly raises average frost-layer thickness, primarily due to particle gravitational scattering.
“Kim ' s experiments [5] show that increasing cold-surface inclination significantly raises average frost-layer thickness, primarily due to particle gravitational scattering.”
From Analysis of long-term growth characteristics of frost layer on inclined cold surface of microchannel heat exchanger (2026) · cites this paper as [5]
During the early stage of a frost formation process, as the inclination angle of the flat plate increases, the number of water droplets increases but the average radius of water droplets decreases.
“During the early stage of a frost formation process, the number of water droplets was increased, but the average radius of water droplets decreased as the inclination angle of the flat plate increased.”

During the frost layer growth stage of a frost formation process, as the inclination angle of a flat plate increases, the average frost thickness increases but the average frost density decreases.
“During the frost layer growth stage of a frost formation process, the average frost thickness was increased, but the average frost density decreased as the inclination angle of a flat plate was increased.”

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.
