AI/ML benchmark dataset compiled for nuclear reactor safety analysis

Researchers have compiled and digitized a critical heat flux (CHF) dataset for Phase II of the OECD/NEA AI/ML CHF benchmark, which focuses on spatially varying power profiles in light-water reactors. This dataset, extracted from technical reports and interpolated onto a consistent axial mesh, aims to support advanced modeling efforts. The study highlights that traditional CHF correlations and even neural networks trained on uniform data struggle to generalize to non-uniform axial power distributions, emphasizing the need for models that explicitly incorporate these variations.

    Aggregation of Published Non-Uniform Axial Power Data for Phase II of the OECD/NEA AI/ML Critical Heat Flux Benchmark

    arXiv:2507.00034v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Critical heat flux (CHF) marks the onset of boiling crisis in light-water reactors, defining safe thermal-hydraulic operating limits. To support Phase II of the OECD/NEA AI/ML CHF benchmark, which introduces spatially varying po…
