Abstract
We evaluated transport-aware tuning for membrane desalination under 33% salinity gradient. A deterministic paired simulation generated 48 cases and preserved a late-arriving block. Mean flux-selectivity balance changed from 0.524 to 0.574; the paired difference was +0.050 (95% interval +0.047 to +0.053). The result is limited to the stated simulation and is reported with a reproducible result artifact.
