Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Dryout powers have been evaluated at selected inlet-flow conditions for two proposed designs of CANDU® bundles and compared to those of the 37-element and CANFLEX® bundles. These proposed designs consist of a large centre element (18 mm for one design and 20 mm for the other) and three rings of elements of 11.5 mm in outer diameter. The critical heat flux for each bundle design has been predicted using the correlation derived with Freon data obtained from the corresponding full-scale bundle test. An improvement in dryout power has been shown for the proposed design having a 20-mm centre element with a radial power profile corresponding to the natural-uranium fuel as compared to other bundles, particularly the natural-uranium 37-element bundle, with a symmetric cosine axial power profile. The dryout power improvement is further enhanced for the upstream-skewed axial power profile.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
