Abstract
Research Reactors have exhaust stacks that emit filtered radioactive gaseous waste into the atmosphere. In this research work, to check whether the radioactive gaseous waste met the requirements of ANSI/HPS N13.1–2011 mixing criteria, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis was performed. According to ANSI criteria, Coefficient of Variance (COV) of velocity uniformity, flow angle, tracer gas, and aerosol particles concentration should be less than 20%. Therefore, the COV of the four parameters at different sampling positions along the stack height, with eight tracer gas and eight particles injection cases, were analyzed. The COV of velocity at 6 m height is 17.5% and flow cyclone is 9.8 degree. The results indicated that the 6 m height of the stack is enough for cyclone angle and COV of velocity to fulfill the ANSI mixing criteria. The COV of tracer gas concentration in one to eight injection cases is 10%, 4.8%, 7.5%, 17%, 2.5%, 6%, 13%, and 5% at 14 m stack height so the tracer gas also satisfied the standard mixing criteria in a concise length of 14 m because of the minimal difference in densities of tracer gas and air. However, due to their much higher density, aerosol particles took much longer to mix into the air. At 60 m stack height, the COV of aerosol particle concentration in one to eight injection cases is 14.8%, 18%, 8%, 12%, 11%, 15%, 15.5%, and 2%, respectively. As a result, when the stack height is set to 60 m, the COV of velocity, cyclone flow angle, tracer gas concentration, and aerosol particle concentration are found to meet the ANSI mixing criteria. Therefore, the minimum recommended height of the stack is proposed to be 60 m for the case under consideration.

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
