Way different reactor, and different fuel. Hilarious post & comments...

@Alexandru LMFAO!!!

@Matt S Dyatlov wrote the instruction for the test, but there were no third-party body to reexamine this instruction. Don't forget Bryhanov, it was his decision to abort the standard reactor stopping sequence to obey the dispatcher request (this caused xenon poisoning), also Bryhanov and Fomin were the only people that had to check Dyatlov's instruction. USSR was in general overly complacent with nuclear energy. RBMK is neither safe nor stone age. It is incredibly advanced reactor (especially for it's time) that was extremely powerful however very hard to control (note computers of those day's, especially soviet ones were significantly inferior then your phone 10 years ago). It was easy to build, as it doesn't require high pressure hull, and USSR could't make those hulls in numbers that were needed. The main flaw of this reactor is the fact that water boils inside, so in certain modes it has positive reactivity. Many people knew about it's flaws by the time of 1986 there were several accidents with it with the most significant on the Leningrad NPP, in fact the "rode end effect" was known, and there was a standing instruction to adjust control rodes to be 0.5 m lower. But people were too complacent. Here is a great interview of ex Zaporizhia NPP director, who also took part in building Chernobyl NPP confinement about causes of the disaster kzfaq.info/get/bejne/apijp5Om19_YfH0.html (English subtitles included)

@Matt S reactor would already be shut down by that night if not for Bryhanov, he should have declined dispatcher's request.

@Matt S the reactor was already planned to be shut down for maitenance, one does not simply change reactor working cycle, it is dangerous for any reactor (except for some new designs, but none of them has been built yet), yet alone for RBMK. Man from interview I posted above had refused to prolong work of much safer WWER reactor in similar circumstances, he explained his decision to dispatcher afterwards. Bryhanow didn't even try arguing with a dispatcher.

My plan was to find an algorithm for my code but i ended up knowing how you can shut down a nuclear power plant in case of emergency. Worth it too.

Except it does so at a much higher quantity.

The cool thing is how one would think of this idea and how it is done by the splitting of molecules and the heat that is given off.

Why does everybody call it a dosimeter? A dosimeter is a piece of metal that you put on your body so they could measure how much radiation your body has received now the instrument that you're talking about it's called a geiger counter.

George Washington yeah but most people call it that easier to say lol

@@chico305SIGMA yea but Geiger counters count clicks per minute which usually get converted to Sieverts it measures back ground radiation ect its also invented and made by two British dudes in the 1920s Russians didn't care about allied tech so the soviets made their own including their own measurements. so that's how you get röntgen esu / 0.001293 g of air 1928 2.58 × 10−4 C/kg it basicly tells you how much your body absorbs per hour.

Underrated comment

lmfao

there's a M4PL-5 button where an emergency system pumps massive amounts of massive maple syrup into the reactor to cool the reactor

As far as I know that's a russian thing. It's called EPIS in CANDU.

Many people protest nuclear power plants because of their stupidity as well. Look at what's been happening in Germany. A lot of plants canceled/closed because of these morons

CO2 makes the world greener. The IPCC is utter bullshit.

Actually no, they want to invest in inefficient and costly gimmicks like wind and solar power. If they were serious about transitioning from fossil fuels, they would invest in nuclear instead of shutting nuclear power plants down.

Co2 compromises less than .04% of earths atmosphere. Climate change is an an overblown problem

yeah pull start indeed ,just like a lawn mower . fii-tu-tu-tu...fii-tu-tu-tu...fii-tu-tu-tu...

+dorpth I like to think that nuclear engineers use Homer Simpson as a metric of safety level. Homer Simpson-proof = anything-proof

To the same extent that other power systems do so, yes, its possible. We've been using pressure boilers for 400 years; we know how they work, and yet every so often, one explodes. Is that acceptable? It will be, when the technology is equally mature, be possible to limit the damages just as much as they are limited for boilers today.

Yes, they do. But Homer Simpson would not be in control room. He would mistakenly go to the reactor room.

If they are passive, then yes. I know you're joking, but still, they said multiple times in the program that some of these systems operate without power and without operator intervention.

@@kysz1 you cant mistakenly enter the Calandria containment

Exactly , now back to business , Toptunov let er rip

Right here!

Which is ironic considerig Chernobyl had a very different reactor type. - RBMK - only one water circuit and no protective dome.

I guess it's a good thing to know this. I never cared for nuclear energy or how it works, until now.

@@eugenebidney6404 Oh I know, but it got me interested in the differences in newer reactors so decided to dig deeper

@@danielrickman516 I knew it!

most of that is in part due to how those who profit from our current system do everything they can to make these systems look as dangerous as possible. The Chernobyl disaster is also in part responsible, but humans learned a lot since then.

Public resistance is basically due to environmental and public safety concerns and it triggers development of safety regulations which in turn motivates technologists and researchers to develop better operating processes and materials and equipment. They should be viewed as catalysts for progress rather than as hurdles

It’s about time that no fails safes will work. Swiss cheese model always gets you .. :)

Magnetic Polar Shift in 3 years causes 440 simultaneous nuclear Meltdowns and the end of the Human Race

@@kishorekurtakoti1225 I disagree, most of the people concerned with nuclear straight up want to get rid of it instead of helping anyone

Do you mean failsafe like Fukushime triple meltdown failsafe? Cause Murphys law claims otherwise.

What do you mean "Fukushima triple meltdown failsafe"?? The reactor got hit with a tsunami after the largest earthquake ever recorded in Japan. In this case I don't think any failsafe would help this

@@strangejmaster The backup generators that were in a basement, needed to keep the pumps running so as to keep the reactor cool while it scrams and shuts down, then cools off. Elecricity from diesel generators is needed for that, and the spent fuel pools that stored decades of used fuel elements that also needs cooling. What I mean is they could have placed them above ground, and the backups to the backup generators were on trucks 5 miles inland, so that they survive the tsunami... except that the tsunami covered all the roads with debris and rubble, which they also failed to account for. Do you understand now how that works. You need generators to keep pumps running so the water circulates while the reactor cools, for the failsafe to work. That or the water inside the containment structure boils away, and the chemical reactions cause hydrogen to be generated, which then ignites in a huge explosion, which is what happened.. But if you didnt understand what a reactor SCRAM procedure entails, then Im not expecting you to understand why hydrogen is generated in exposed radioactive fuel elements, that are no longer submerged in a moderator which is the water inside the containment structure.

That actually make a lot of sense. Someone please reply to me so I can read this again later

@@Coastal_Cruzer I got u👍

That sub bit market is so huge though also. and the hyper and super critical coal industries provide so much other materials to capture and use. Its why no north american exports of naptha anymore. All the east sub bit coal plants. and they moved also on to that plasma low grade gas waste (nuc florene thing) and have it so small scale its everywhere i guess. Just little generators on buildings..... Kinda neat too. we always in usa though so large for power needs we missed the small generator market. memere and pepere would be proud of what you did with CANDU.

alcohol is flammable, heavy water is not.

Ike Evans Like SJWs huh? Yeah i was like them...but then I learned shit is safe. Damned loony nuts.

AZNXXXful14 You got me: right off hand I don't know what an SJW is.

Think retards who say nuke power is scary and aweful...now think crazy feminazis...look them up on tumblr and such it's easy to find those nuts.

bullshit, nuclear power plants are always running the risk of a runaway scenario, no security feature can get rid of this issue. if u were to run a thorium reactor that issue would be gone i believe, but we're not. this is a risk for everyone on this planet, and it's a bullshit that it's reliable and inexpensive. what is the cost for having a permanent place for spent fuel? oh wait right there is currently no such thing, with only one country i believe building one, which is still fucking expensive. nuclear plants however are a great way to control energy instead of freeing. calling a nuclear power plant inexpensive shows how ignorant u are with all the issues and almost endless lasting waste it creates.

In my book I would prefer to pay for a place to store the spent fuel in preference to what every coal fired power plant on the planet has, which is a massive dump of sterile ash, concentrated in the radioactive metals which leached into the coal for aeons, and backing up the natural surface water circulation until they flood out, strewing the ash for miles.

Chernobyl wasn't just an inherently faulty design, it was a deliberately manufactured accident as the operators deliberately placed the reactor into a critical condition, trying to perform a "safety" test. It may surprise you, but there's still about ten reactors identical to the Chernobyl design, still in operation, and have operated safely for decades. Even in Chernobyl, the still operational reactors were kept operating to provide electricity for a long time. The last of its reactors was shut down in 2001, 15 years after the accident.

No safety system, Murphy's Law rendered those obsolete... but I'm sure they have a few documents on how to perform a seamless coverup.

Oh, indeed. Small here means in comparison to the heat created by fission in a reactor running at its rated power, which could convert the entire cooling system to very hot steam in an instant if there is a loss of pressure.

@@Ed-ti1ss decreasing exponentially, it hot for a few days and it become a 1~0.5% in a few weeks

Jayee that’s not what he was saying though. Maybe listen to it again....

Well nuclear energy isn't all that amazing until we figure out how to do create a controlled fusion reaction. The best we have right now would be a molten salt reactor

Such an uneducated point of view. Modern nuclear plants are incredibly safe. Any "catastrophe" are anomalies. Like how one or two doctors are serial killers. You don't boycott doctors.

@@lastyhopper2792seems legit

They needed to know how Xenon Gas is a reactor poison(It absorbs neutrons preventing reaction) and that it skyrockets when the reactor goes into low energy mode or turned off. You need to wait for 3 days for it to decay to normal levels before you try to start it again, because it is difficult and dangerous. When they finally got the reactor going, the xenon would have been reduced dramatically within minutes and the control rods(also a neutron absorber) they pulled out sent it into overdrive. That's like a cardinal rule of all reactors. But they just had to "test it's safety", they should have just called it a night and this would never have happened.

Let’s turn into nuclear supervisors

Have you heard about ITER? The big fusion reactor being built in france, and hopefully the first one to produce more power than it consumes. Guess how it produces electricity from the heated core?

Because nuclear is very dangerous to use.

All energy is dangerous...

mike more FACE PALM. Bro, there's a reason Pripyat, the town close to Chernobyl, is still a ghost town. One nuclear power plant has the capability to make life as we know it non existent.

ehill1390 Bro Face PALM bro bro. read my reply to Cuthbert Nibbles; there is the argument you have to face. Nuclear is safer than any other form of generating energy in all history. Read and see.
