Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract A CANDU reactor core comprises several hundred horizontal fuel channels spanning a calandria vessel. Loss of sufficient cooling during a severe accident could result in collapse of the core to the bottom of the calandria. A simple computational tool for simulating, in two dimensions, the resulting build-up of a terminal debris bed is described. The tool is used to model a variety of core collapse scenarios. Computed debris beds are generally lower in the middle, ∼10 fuel channels deep, and have higher decay power in their interiors. The initial debris bed porosity is estimated to be 0.65 ± 0.15. High porosity could augment in-vessel hydrogen generation and fission product release during subsequent debris bed heat-up.

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.

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
