Breazeale Nuclear Reactor Start up, 500kW, 1MW, and Shut Down (ANNOTATED)

Ғылым және технология

By popular demand, I bring you an annotated video of the Breazeale Nuclear Reactor! The sound is fixed and many things are explained.
If you have any questions or want elaboration on any part of this video, please leave a comment. I love explaining nuclear power to curious people.
I look forward to reading your comments!
PS: I'm aware of spelling errors in the video (I am an engineer ya know). No need to point them out.

    @dick_kickem 420 for the sake of the argument, the explosion was steam based, not nuclear. you basically drop a super hot rock into a cooking pot and close the lid real fast, it goes boom. technically the water/steam was radioactive, but it's not a nuclear explosion. so the explosion was not nuclear, then it was on fire for a bit, which was the main problem as far as radioactive contamination goes. tl;dr it was radioactive material on fire, not a nuclear explosion, the explosion was steam. basically the argument is: you got boiled in water, not fried in oil. same-ish result, one's slightly less worse than the other.

    The water have to be clean. If there's any salts or unknown ions in the water they will over time make deposits on the side of the reactor walls, which will decrease the heat transmission coefficient, making the water less good at cooling. Most powerplants use deuterium (heavy water/D2O) as cooling and neutron moderator, which has to be very pure.

I traveled to Dresden Nuclear plant many times over during those 17 years for refueling and other maintenance outages. I got to see the fuel pool which had a beautiful cobalt blue glow. I also changed out and rebuilt fuel rod drives. I had a mental understanding of what was going on while the reactor was running but this is the first time I've seen that process.

    The individual reactor design determines a lot of the safety risks involved. That and waste disposal. Events like Chernobyl and even the more recent Fukishima incident involved outdated somewhat outdated technology and newly built reactors are said to be significantly safer (especially compared to RBMK used in Chernobyl). That being said nuclear technology will always have some risks - those risks however are often less than those of other power sources including hydroelectric damns that have killed more people than reactor incidents. I also think reactor design can be further improved and made even safer with enough research, we already have ideas on how to do this but don't have the funding.

    Its not that nuclear technology is dangerous, as you said, technology is advance enough that something happening like in Chernobyl is highly unlikely.. The concerne is danger from natural causes, like what happened in Fukushima. We dont know what future holds, some catastrophe on bigger scale will happen sooner or later, and then we might have serious problems with those reactors and nuclear waste. Which also is another concerne, nuclear waste, besides Finland, nobody else permanently store their nuclear waste for now.. Waste is being hold in the power planet itself, or on some locations, but not permanently sealed and buried, and in that state is always potentialy dangerous..

    Nuclear reactor technology definitely deserves its bad reputation. When operators are constantly vigilant and abiding by all safety procedures, everything's gravy. But it only takes one time for something to fail or somebody to make a mistake and shit goes south extremely fast. Both Fukushima and Chernobyl proved that. Fukushima even had safety backups with backups after them. Mother nature fucked all that up.

    @@Rob-hv5zq Actually stuff cant go down south really fast in modern reactors. Chernobyl was a catastrophe by design which was only able to happen duo to the use the nowadays very outdated solid fission moderator Graphite and the use of only 2% enriched Uranium (instead of commonly used 3-5% which is more expensive) so the catastrophy wouldnt have been a suprise if looked at from nowadays perspective. Fukushima is a nuclear reactor build on the edge of one of the most earthquake torn islands. I cannot imagine a case of a modern nuclear reactor going boom if its not right at the edge of a continental plate. You can run planes into them and the fission reaction is self controlled duo to the design of the reactor, if every worker in a nuclear facility suddenly died the reactors would happily keep on running until fission stops, cooling and moderation is self sustained and unless not explicitly told to do so otherwise by human intervention (or the water pool having a leak...) the fission will decrease not increase.

I did chuckle about checking the camera for activation, as they'd be a wee bit above 1 MW to get that kind of neutron flux at that distance in water. But, the tests are standard and mandatory.

    Fun fact: if a macroscopic object were moving at "can generate light booms" speeds it would be fussing particles on, and ablating, its forward facing side. It would basically be a moving nuclear explosion untill the object is either consumed or obliterated. Yes, I am a blast at parties.

    Believe it or not, near the top of the pool, just under the surface, you would probably get less radiation than outside the pool. Water is an excellent material for blocking radiation, just under the surface it would block some of the natural background from things like cosmic rays (this is assuming the water itself is not contaminated of course). Yes, being near the reactor would be very bad, but the reactor is some distance away from the top of the pool, and water being an excellent radiation blocker and the inverse square law combine to make it pretty safe. Keep in mind, the spent fuel pool in this article is probably releasing more radiation than the reactor does. what-if.xkcd.com/29/
