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 model describes the measured frost surface temperature reasonably well except for some overprediction at φ = 50% (where data exhibit irregular behavior for times below about 40 min).

    “Fig. 6b suggests that the model describes the measured frost surface temperature reasonably well except for some overprediction in the case of φ = 50% (where the data exhibit somewhat irregular behavior for times below about 40 min).”
  • Generally reasonable agreement is achieved between the model and measurements for frost thickness at φ = 50, 70, and 80%, although the model somewhat underpredicts the data.

    “Generally reasonable agreement is achieved between the model and the measurements for the frost thickness at the three values of φ = 50, 70 and 80% (Fig. 6a), although it must be admitted that the model somewhat underpredicts the data.”
  • At φ = 80%, the measured frost surface temperature increases to about -4 oC, which is relatively close to the melting temperature.

    “At φ = 80%, the measured frost surface temperature increases to about -4 ºC, which is relatively close to the melting temperature.”
  • For φ = 50%, the model satisfactorily predicts the data up to t = 90 min, beyond which the data show a small jump in frost thickness.

    “In the case of φ =50%, the model satisfactorily predicts that data up to t = 90 min, beyond which the data show a small jump in frost thickness.”
  • The measurements suggest that as air velocity increases, frost thickness increases, with data for V = 0.5 m/s and V = 1 m/s approaching each other for times in excess of about 110 minutes.

    “The measurements suggest that as the air velocity increases the frost thickness increases, with the data for V = 0.5 m/s and V = 1m/s approach each other for times in excess of about 110 minutes.”

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.
