Abstract
ARIANT (AlgoRIthm for Analysis of Network Thermalhydraulics) is a Canadian Nuclear Laboratories system thermal-hydraulic code for the modeling and analysis of two-phase flow and heat transfer for pressurized heavy water reactors, light water pressurized water reactors, and advanced reactor applications. This paper presents ARIANT models and simulations of RD-14M experiments, including small-break loss-of-coolant accidents, large-break loss-of-coolant accidents, loss-of-flow accidents, station blackout, and natural circulation, that are representative of accident scenarios in a CANDU reactor.ARIANT predictions of pressures, flow rates, temperatures, and void fractions are compared against the steady-state and transient data over the course of the tests. The results show that ARIANT predicted the key parameters with reasonable accuracy, as well as the overall behavior of the five transient events. These assessments support ARIANT’s applicability to the corresponding CANDU design-basis accidents and demonstrate ARIANT as an alternative to existing system thermal-hydraulic codes for CANDU safety analysis.

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
