Plate or flake and irregular frost crystals tend to form a thinner and denser frost layer compared to dendrite or feather and needle frost crystals.
“The study carried out by Zhang et al. [24] also presented similar results, and showed that plate or flake and irregular frost crystals tended to form a thinner and denser frost layer when compared to dendrite or feather and needle frost crystals.”

The maximum frost root-mean-square surface roughness was decreased with an increase in air temperature, velocity, and wall temperature, but increased with an increase in air relative humidity.

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.
