At higher Reynolds numbers, the frost layer is almost homogeneous, with the leading edge thickness remaining near constant and the downstream height increasing.
“Luer and Beer (2000) also observed that at higher Reynolds numbers, the frost layer is almost homogeneous, with the leading edge thickness remaining near constant and the downstream height increasing.”

Existing frosting models have focused on predicting heat and mass transfer characteristics at surfaces of basic geometries such as a flat plate or cylindrical surface.
“Existing frosting models have focused on predicting the characteristics of heat and mass transfer at the surfaces of basic geometries, such as a flat plate or cylindrical surface [1-12].”

Reliance on homogenized surface roughness resulted in an average 22.52% deviation in frost thickness.
“Nonetheless, reliance on homogenized surface roughness resulted in an average 22.52% deviation in frost thickness.”

The frost-growth stage is of particular significance because it governs the structural and thermophysical properties of the frost layer.
“Among these, the frost-growth stage is of particular significance because it governs the structural and thermophysical properties of the frost layer [23 -26].”

Water-vapor transport through a porous medium is mainly due to Fickian diffusion caused by the gradient of the vapor partial pressure.
“Previous researchers assumed that the water-vapor at the frost surface is saturated with the surface temperature, and water-vapor transport through a porous medium is mainly due to Fickian diffusion caused by the gradient of the vapor partial pressure [4,11,13,14].”

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.
