@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 kzread.info/dash/bejne/Zman1pKuotzafKw.html (English subtitles included)

@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.

In case of emergency just start throwing spaghetti into the reactor until al dente.

Sadly, people see disasters like Chernobyl, and think all reactors are equally prone to similar fates. But the fact is that Chernobyl was an ancient Soviet era design that was terrible, because they wanted it as cheap as possible. So bad in fact, that it was practically a disaster waiting to happen. Modern designs, and in particular, the Candu design, have so many overlapping safety features, failure is almost impossible. Even concern over spent fuel is dumb. The fuel still have a huge amount of energy left. It's just cheaper right now to use new fuel instead of recycling the old. But some day the spent fuel will be like money in the bank, once it's cost efficient to recycle it.

@zolikoff

5 жыл бұрын

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.

There are some things you CANDU and CAN'T DU.

Low cost energy production in a closed loop vacuum system: You have a water tank filled with degassed deionized water, the water then goes through black pipes held in glassed-in insulated boxes so sunlight is captured to heat the water "it can get hot enough to boil at sea level" the piping then goes to a spray nozzle where the hot water instantly vaporizes the steam then goes to a turbine that drives an electrical generator, after the turbine the steam and any water that condensed in it travel at a downward angle through a pipe with a condensation coil around it to a large vacuum chamber that has heat transfer fins inside this preheats water from a large reservoir tank that then feeds to the starting tank. The constant rapid condensation of the steam combined with a volume of the vacuum chamber being 3x or larger than the volume of steam produce at any given time maintains the vacuum level so the process continues.

Ah yes, my favorite. Learning about nuclear power plants and how to be safe in them when they aren’t even in my country.

very informative video. please make some more videos particularly on steam generator, pressurizer, deaerator and so on.

Our American type of Nuclear Power Plant is the Silo Plant. We use 4 cooling silos that direct water into heating systems that heat the water up into steam that powers the same turbines and generators that generate electricity. We use the same fuel and reactors to make the electricity. Just one fuel log can power up to and over 170 homes for just one year. However, our reactors use the hot water from the cooling towers as its power source, and they can to automatically shut down. Our reactors also use Uranium Fuel Rods to power the reactors themselves. The left over hot water goes back into the cooling towers to be cooled down again and then sent back to the water source that the water came from in the first place. So that's how our power plants work. Plz like and love this comment. It would be most appreciated if you did so.

Great examples of "fail to safe" engineering, where when something fails the system reverts to its safest state. Another simple example would be an emergency push button, where most people assume that you have to press the button for a signal to be sent, however, the reality is that the button must be not pressed for the signal, and pressing it actually opens the input and stops everything. The reason it's called fail to safe or "fail safe" is because if the button becomes damaged or prevents the circuit from closing, then nothing works. It failed and the system is safe.

@@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.

Great piece of engineering!

how do those work without chuit and 'erbs, or when the cooling system would be perforated by one major shaped charge?

I learned something abooot reactors!

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

So many things need to go right, crazy how they make it all happen.

Seen quite a few videos about power plants of all kinds but nobody explains how is water refilled in the steam generator when it's under high pressure. A good source (link) of information would be welcome.

Great video! Thank you for making it. Do you have any docs about safety systems? It'd be so generous of you if you share this with me

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

"Small" decay heat is anything but "small". Decay heat is hot enough to melt the rod's casing turning it into a lump of lava if not cooled properly.

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.

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.

This may be off topic, but I think someone might find it interesting. :) Device to end the creation of Nuclear waist. Step 1: calculate how much energy you need pumped into the motor to make a vertically positioned circular platter with magnets in-bedded horizontally around it's left side and right side so there pushing force is pushing out sideways relative to the vertically spinning disc to spin fast. :D Step 2: Calculate how many sets of copper coils you need to be interacting with magnetic fields to achieve this & to perpetuate more electrical current flow then is needed. :D Step 3: Build a round horizontally positioned platter covered in all these copper coils pointed down that does not move (Is stationary) :D Step 4: build a round platter covered in powerful magnets pointed up that can spin and place it directly under platter with hanging copper coils. :D Step 5: Position the vertical platter that is motorized close to the horizontally positioned platter covered in magnets pointing up so that when the vertically positioned platter spins the in-bedded horizontally positioned magnetic fields slam sideways against the edge of the horizontally positioned platter causing it to spin. :) Step 6: Make sure enough of the copper coils are feeding their electrical current into the motor and the rest of the copper coils are linked into a set of rechargeable Battery's placed right next to the motor spinning the one vertically positioned disc. Step 7: Build a duplicate setup of horizontally positioned discs with hanging copper coils and disc with upwards facing magnets and position it to the front right, the back left and the back right of the vertically positioned motorized disc. As the vertically positioned motorized disc spins the horizontally in-beaded magnets will now hit into all 4 horizontally positioned discs causing them to spin. so you will effectively be using the spin of one disc powered by one motor to spin 4 constructs that are each generating electrical current. now build this whole setup multiple times over and use the current perpetuated by it to power up scaled electromagnetic generators that are equal to or more powerful than the ones used in a nuclear power plant. You will now have a device that is self perpetuating off of it's own electrical current perpetuation and no nuclear waist to worry about.

It is the cleanest and most effective source for us.....but then unfortunately the disadvantages keep coming.

@@dont_care1591 No they don't, chernobyl is approaching livability again, and it was a rather unique disaster. Probably another 20 years and they could start cleanup and letting people re-settle the area. Scientists have been studying the animals there for some time, they not only survive but thrive, not nearly as bad as was once thought the effect would be on living creatures. In 100 years, the hottest fission products are either long gone or greatly reduced. Isotopes with half lives in the days, months, or single digit years would be completely gone. Isotopes with half lives around 30 years would be about 10% of their original radioactivity. Even without any effort to do cleanup, like removing top soil and plants to sequester them, not only would the "consequences" not last multiple hundreds of years, but you'd be pretty hard pressed to even prove a nuclear accident happened in a particular location after 200-300 years. You'd have to take a lot of sample and test with very sensitive equipment to look specifically for manmade isotopes with medium to long half lives(which also means cooler, less radioactive).

Good information 👍

CANDU reactors have a mixed record-very expensive to build. Really old design with some good features (don't need enriched fuel), but very complex.
