Abstract
The estimation of leak rates through steam generator tube crack is an important safety parameter. An assessment of the choking flow models in thermal-hydraulics code RELAP5 is performed and its applicability to predict choking flow rates through steam generator tube cracks is addressed. A RELAP5 nodalization was created to model experimental data from literature. It is found that both the Henry-Fauske and Ransom-Trapp models better predict choking mass flux for longer channels. As the length of a channel decreases the both models’ predictions diverge from each other. While RELAP5 has been shown to predict choking flow in large scale geometries, it is not suited well for small channel lengths. In the case of a more conservative approach, where over prediction of mass flux through short channels is best, the Henry-Fauske model would be most appropriate.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
